4Season home/dog friendly/no added cleaning fees/plenty of parking/fire pit

This cozy ADK home has a beautiful view of Lake Algonquin with 110' of lakefront property.The master bedroom has a Stickley bedroom set with ceiling fan and private 1/2 bath. The second bedroom has a great view of the lake with a full bath, including a deep tub across the hall! The great room with oak dining table at one end has cozy furniture on the other to watch the flat screened TV with a ROKU, lots free or bring your paswords anduse your TV lists. So you can get your e-mail or use the wifi.
There is a nice romantic gas stove in the living room for chilly nights! In the Sunroom there's a queen size pull out couch with gorgeous lake views . The kitchen is fully equipped with a refridgerator,dishwasher,microwave, stove and coffee maker, dishware and cookware. There's an attractive screened in porch, as well as an outside deck to set and relax,read a good book, or take a soothing nap.Nice fire pit outside! The granite steps lead down to the private dock where we supply kayaks or a canoe to explore the lake. Additionally We are dog lovers! There is a nicely fenced in area for your pooch to frolic and play! This is a four season home. The summers are spectacular but so is the Fall foliage season and we especially Love Winter! We enjoy to cross country ski and snowshoe from here. We are adjacent to the NYS snowmobile trail system. Gore Mnt ski center is a 40min direct drive and Oak Mnt Ski Center is 15 minutes north in Speculator. We also love to cross country ski and snowshoe here or go to Lap Land Lake 20 minutes south in Benson. After a long day of activities there is a gas wood stove to relax by
We also have a full coverage generator so you never have to worry about any power outages in the ADK

Perfect lake house
The house and location are even better than the pictures. The hosts are so welcoming and helpful. It was the perfect get away with our pooch. The fenced area is so convenient. The house itself is so cozy and has everything you could possibly need and lots of extras. We’re hoping to go back in the summer and really enjoy the lake.

We loved staying here. The place is so cozy for the rainy weather we had. Our favorite part was still the sunroom though! Check in was easy and Debby kept the lights on for us for our late arrival. We would love to come back again!
