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

Wonderful place, caring owners
This was my second stay here and I still love it. The fall colors were at their peak and that was so beautiful! And a bald eagle flew in and posed in a pine tree one evening. Amazing! There is a very good supply of things that are lacking at other places - toilet paper, tissues, hand soap, ice and even night lights. The furniture is comfortable and the overall lighting is good. I especially liked the fenced area for my dog. I really appreciated that the dock was still in place in October. Debby even texted me to see if I arrived safely and to check if everything was OK. I would definitely like to return.

Wonderfully Relaxing & Beautiful Location
Our second time to this property was just as perfect as the first. We had everything we could need and the home was very clean. The views from the property are just amazing! Our dogs absolutely love this property and the fenced in yard for them is super convenient. There is so much to do in the area, but having the kayaks there for the lake gave us such a peaceful paddle in the early morning hours. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the area. Mark and Debby are great hosts. Very good communication, very helpful, And willing to go the extra mile if needed. Thank you for sharing your home with us again this year.

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.

My wife and I rented this home to see the fall foliage in the area. The house was perfect for us. It had everything we needed and it was in such a peaceful setting. The owners were great in communicating with us and made sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this rental.

Tranquility at the Lake
My husband and I spent a very peaceful and relaxing week at Northern Exposure. The hosts were responsive and helpful. The house was fully stocked with everything you could need. It was very clean and comfortable. We were thankful for the central AC since it was a hot week. The lake was perfect for fishing and kayaking. The area has many hiking trails, two country stores on each end of Wells. Took a day trip to Speculator and enjoyed beautiful lake views at Lake Pleasant. We’re looking forward to coming back. Thank you for sharing your vacation house.

Christmas at the lake
I wanted to do something different with my husband and daughter for Christmas. All three of us agreed the setting and home were ideal ! I packed a small tree and some ornaments and when we walked in there stood a tree and the entire cabin was done for winter/Christmas. So cozy, so picturesque ! It was a wonderful fun trip. I never met Deb but felt like I knew her, a good vibe. I was sending pictures as if she never saw her home😀
