A comfortable stay in a remote setting
The house was well equipped and very comfortable, with plenty of seating for a larger group. The nearest town was very small and had a nice grocery store, but many places are closed Sun-Wed. Be prepared to either do some cooking or drive longer for a meal. Overall, I had a very enjoyable stay.

We had such a relaxing weekend! Perfectly located, close enough to lake George to drive in for the day, but far enough out that you’re able to disconnect from busy life. Would love to come back in the winter to enjoy some skiing!

Great Cabin
We enjoyed our stay in this rustic cabin. It had all we needed including a comfortable bed, a propane grill, hot water, fresh linens, and ample kitchen supplies. I would recommend this cabin for those looking to escape to the woods.

Cozy cabin in the ADK’s
The property is clean and amazing! It is cozy and welcoming and a great choice for a family with children. The cabin is stocked with everything you need from cooking utensils to bedding to board games. There is a fireplace for nighttime family time and s’mores. And a grill for the times you feel like grilling. It is a charming old schoolhouse and personalized in a school setting. We loved it so much we recommended it to our friends. We look forward to spending time here again!

Nice, but beware of hot weather
Cute place. It is small, but we were able to fit 2 adults and 5 kids (1 baby). Good for a home base (for us to the Lake George area - about 40 mins away), but don't expect much from the house, the property, or surroundings - I definitely wouldn't recommend it if you are looking for a place to relax in all day. But clean, comfortable, and well stocked - everything we used worked fine. Definitely appreciated the fire pit and firewood. One negative is that the advertisement was a little misleading. There is air conditioning, but only for the downstairs - the upstairs loft (4 beds) was stifling when we were there so we all had to sleep on the downstairs couches and floor (luckily we brought a blow up mattress). The advertisement should really put a caveat on the A/C claim. Also, of lesser significance, the pictures in the advertisement are a little dated. For example, they show two dining tables - the second has been replaced by a bar-like table which is not as comfortable. But all in all, we would recommend.

Quiet Restored/converted schoolhouse
The property was very clean and had everything we needed. The appliances (refrigerator/freezer, stove, microwave) were all newer. Everything we needed for cooking meals. Nice fire pit and a large supply of firewood. The decor was great. A short drive to North Creek, and a reasonable drive to the Lake George area.

Great family spot near Gore
Everything was as advertised. The house is 10-15 minutes to Gore Mountain and was a great home base for our family. Cozy accommodations. The upstairs loft with 4 twin beds would be ideal to sleep kids/teens but is fine for small/average sized adults too. Well stocked kitchen and bathroom, and in-house laundry was a clutch amenity. No issues with check-in or check-out. We would love to have the opportunity to stay again next time we ski Gore.

Schoolhouse Charmer
Lovely little gem nestled in the woods near Gore Mountain and Revolution Rail bikes. Very private and well maintained. All the amenities were there. New towels and bedding, and new comfy living room furniture. It was just my husband and self, but it is well suited for a small family. Give a try! You won't be disappointed. Only gave a 3 star on the communication with property manager because we could not as we had no phone signal. They left very clear instructions on everything though so we had no need to talk with them. Wifi worked great.

Cozy cabin
We stayed here so we could be close to Gore and Garnet Hill skiing. Everything was great. It is a compact space but was perfect for the four of us. The kids loved the original schoolhouse chalkboard. We stayed plenty cozy with the propane fireplace in the living space.

Comfortable, quiet, cozy getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again! The place was cozy, comfortable and serene. We loved the gas fireplace and the sauna. One day it rained all day and we enjoyed staying indoors and keeping warm by the fire. Beautiful places nearby - Indian Lake was awesome to kayak on and hiking Crane Mountain was a highlight of our trip - stunning views at the top, especially during the Fall when all of the leaves are turning. Highly recommend staying here; give yourself enough time to both enjoy the home and also explore the Adirondacks.

The school house was a great place to stay for our trip to the ADKs. The accommodations were nice, and it proved easy to get to a number of places to explore - Indian Lake, Lake George, Lake Placid. I would recommend this place to others looking to enjoy the area.
