We had a lovely stay on this peaceful lake. We especially loved kayaking with the beavers. The host was accessible, friendly, and gave us some good recommendations for the area.
The cabin, was very cozy and a beautiful view of the water,. Being a woodworker I really appreciated the Adirondack furniture.My family and I really enjoyed the surroundings. We did some fishing and had some nice campfires, and took a nice walk over and around the footbridge Rich is a very gracious host! I would recommend it to anyone who would just like a relaxing stay !
Our family of five spent the week canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and relaxing on this beautiful riverfront property. The ownersâ pride in their cottage shows in how clean and maintained the property is. Directions were clear, check-in was a breeze, and everything in the house was clearly labeled. We hope to book again in the future.
Iâm trying to find the right words but all I can think of was a perfect Adirondack experience with our family. I brought a 16â motorboat which enhanced the value by being able to explore Cranberry lake and itâs breathtaking. Rich was so nice to deal with and actually reached out a month in advance to answer any questions for our upcoming trip which I thought was really helpful. My teenage girls absolutely loved our trip, Especially catching fish right off the dockâŠ.This place is a gem. 10/10
This was our second stay in Rich's camp. We love the location, plenty of hiking trails are found nearby. Although the weather left much to be desired, the family still enjoyed our time in Wanakena. Rich is a great host - investigating questions we gave him. Looking forward to a return trip next year.
Enjoyed our second year staying here on Cranberry Lake! Rich is very responsive and the house has everything you need for a lake getaway. We always spend most of the trip out on the water fishing!
The cottage is beautifully situated and has everything you need. It was great to have the kayaks , the dock, and the fire pit.
The cottage was very clean and as described.
The town of Wanakena is lovely and there are nice trails to hike nearby.
There is a nice, small grocery/convenience store in town, but you should try to bring most of your food as there are no restaurants or large grocery stores nearby.
We had a great week and would recommend this cottage.
We very much enjoyed our stay! Host was responsive and we feel the place was even better than the listing. Our young kids especially loved the small loft house on the property and the adults loved the enclosed porch! We would love to go back!
We loved our stay at this sweet place. The owner was friendly and shared great tips for local fishing and hiking spots. The house and property are beautiful, very comfortable, and fully stocked. We didnât want to leave!
My husband, father, and I really enjoyed our stay on Cranberry Lake! Rich was helpful answering questions, and the house was true to the listing; it had everything needed for our vacation. We also caught a lot of awesome fish! :)
Our family enjoyed our relaxing week in Wanakena. The camp was lovely, exceptionally clean and the 5 of us had plenty of space to relax. Rich is a great host - there was a network problem with WiFi upon arrival. Rich was completely available to get the issues solved.
Thank you Rich for another great stay at your property in Wanakena. We had everything we needed in the spacious, well stocked, well cared for house. This is our second stay and we noticed the improvements you've made-the flowers are beautiful! Thanks for accommodating our three little ones ages 5, 6, and 7-they all had a joyous time playing in the water, fishing, and just running free.
We absolutely loved staying here!!! Gorgeous lake views and we spent a lot of time sitting at the dock. Definitely visit the close restaurant for breakfast or lunch (Black water cafe), it's delicious!!
The property was immaculate, and the location was awesome. We took the canoe out fishing, and had a great time. Wanakena is a super cute town, and everyone was very friendly. We definitely want to stay again.
This cabin is just beautiful ... perfectly appointed, great setting, comfortable furniture and beds. Kitchen is ideal for quick bites or cooking a full meal (which I did!) Our weather was ideal fall temps and we loved walking to the Ranger School and on the trails nearby. Even the little cafe a mile down the road is delicious and friendly ... we really enjoyed getting to know the owners and locals alike. I definitely had to plan ahead for groceries since the nearest grocery store is 40 mins away, but the cafe had any small items I needed to get me through the night. Beautiful cabin - would definitely recommend!
Had a wonderful stay amid the autumn colors. House was very clean and well outfitted. Enjoyed cool hikes, kayak paddles, and campfires before returning to the warm, cozy house. Everything felt updated and in great condition. Rich was very personable and shared lots of helpful information about the house and the area before we arrived. Would definitely recommend this property.
We really loved the location and all the amenities this cabin offered! It was great having our coffee out on the dock and relax by the fire at night. They have everything there for your stay minus the food which was convenient. The only thing that was hard with kids was the dock but it was manageable. Also there is a small area to swim with a sand bottom but it's not a real sand beach. The only suggestion I would have for the cabin itself is to have a TV downstairs as well and not just upstairs so that if you have a rainy day there is something to do especially for the kids. Overall we had a great time and I would recommend this place!!
Property was even better than pictured, perfect for our family of 5. We even had guests stay in the cottage for a few days, Rich was accommodating and everybody was comfortable. Kitchen had what we needed, we got out on the water, fished off the dock, took a few hikesâwe did it all. So comfortable and relaxing, first time in a long time we all wanted to stay an extra week.
The cabin was as expected great location and view of the lake . The cabin had everything that we needed for our stay. My wife are looking into booking this cabin for 2022 vacation. Very nice and cozy cabin . Thanks for the experience
