Very nice cabin on secluded property surrounded by woods. Wildlife (deer, turkeys) visited daily. The upstairs master bedroom is very large and wonderful with a view of the mountains through the sliding glass door. Close (12 minutes) to Lake Saranac for dining, kayaking, etc. We would not hesitate to stay here again if we return to the region.
The McKenzie Mtn View cabin is a great place from which to enjoy the central Adirondacks. The cabin is in the hamlet of Bloomingdale so you're away from the tourist throngs in Lake George or Lake Placid but still very close to hiking and biking trails and ponds and lakes for boating and fishing. We especially enjoyed riding our bikes on the new Adirondack Rail Trail, one of the prettiest trails we've ever ridden. We also enjoyed walking our dog on Moose Pond Road and letting him swim in the pond itself. All within 3-4 miles of the cabin. The cabin itself is very comfortable. You have a large outdoor play area for kids or pets. Inside, there's plenty of room and conveniences include excellent WiFi. The cabin also has air conditioning, something we used for a few nights during a July heat wave. Definitely an great place to stay.
Loved this location, the mountain view was amazing! Everything was just as described. A great space for family to gather and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Even had some wildlife visit the yard.
It is a beautiful property and was a very comfortable place for us to stay on our vacation. We loved the view, the large backyard and deck, and the cozy living room, to name a few. We would love to come back in the future!
Everything was easy about our stay: the location was ideal to pop over to the VIC for some XC skiing; kitchen was adequately set with pans, tools, etc.; easy trips to Saranac Lake and Lake Placid for restaurants.The big surprise was the AMAZING sunrise views of Whiteface and the MacKenzie Mountains.
Awesome location, private, plenty of parking and pet friendly. Dogs loved the yard with room to run and we loved being able to snowmobile from the property- no need to haul to trail head just a little road riding to hit the trail system- We rode to Malone, Lake Placid and Saranac lake. Beautiful views and especially sun rises on clear days.
The place was very clean and exactly as the listing stated. The owner was very easy to communicate with and answered all questions I had. The location was great and close to all the activities we wanted to do. We also loved that they had a large property for my little dig to run and the kids to play. They evenn had dog dishes.
The owner was very accomodating. The place was on the outskirts, but not too far from civilization. It was very clean and well maintained. It is one of very few places that would accept pets with an understandable request to clean up after them. We really enjoyed ourselves and will plan to stay again.
The house is gorgeous and the view is stunning. Everything was just as described. Simple, easy and perfect for our weekend of hiking, visiting old friends and watching the eclipse. Thanks Craig!
The house is beautiful, clean, quiet and well situated to get to Lake Placid and Saranac Lake. This was our yearly trip to Saranac Lake for the Winter Carnival and to see the Ice Castle and we were very happy with the Chalet. Our group had a great time. We had our dogs with us, the yard was perfect for them to get energy out. The house had everything we needed from the kitchen to the rooms. There is plenty of parking for our group. We had a wonderful time.
The house was in a beautiful setting, close to lots of activities, and super comfortable. It was also great that we could bring our dog along (she really enjoyed the snow:)
We would love to visit again in the summer!
This is a wonderful house that feels like you are miles away from everything, But you are just a short drive/walk from the little town of Bloomingdale.
We enjoyed toasting marshmallows in the outdoor firepit (in November!), watching wild turkeys and deer stroll across the property and just hanging out playing games in the well stocked house. We had three generations for a mini- reunion and this was perfect for us. Thank you Craig for sharing!
Had a great time. Rained almost the whole time, but the house is great and when it was clear the view is outstanding. Outside deck is perfect for enjoying the view. Short drives to Saranac Lake or Placid.
Beautiful property and amazing host. Our stay exceeded our expectations in cleanliness, accomodation, and ease of anything you would need to enjoy a week in the Adirondacks! Awesome fire pit set up for the evenings, and we loved waking up to the amazing view every morning. If you are considering this property, I definitely recommend you go ahead and book it!!
The cabin was spacious and very clean! The beds were very comfortable. The lot is very private with much wildlife around. Turkeys and deer visited quite often! There is a nice view of Whiteface Mtn too! The property provides a great star gazing location. We loved the large firepit and enjoyed many fires by it! The village of Saranac Lake is minutes away from here and a nice small brewery right down the road in Bloomingdale on Rte 3. We really enjoyed our stay in the cabin.
The cabin is great, everthing you need is there. The view is stunning and it is so peaceful. And it is dog-friendly to boot, with a large property for the pooch to explore. The wild turkeys strolling around were icing on the cake.
The property was as advertised. The host was excellent and answered all my questions fully and quickly. Property was as seen in the pictures and great for a evening fire.
Will certainly stay again when we head back to Lake Placid.
