What can I say? This out-of-the-way place was absolutely spectacular⊠Close to the river for some nice fishing and relaxation and a fire pit and deck that we thoroughly enjoyed every single night⊠The house was clean, plenty of room and was the ideal spot for our Schroon lake vacation. Dan was very responsive and always available to answer questions about anything to do with the house. Its location was right off the highway and there was a fantastic little Crossroads deli that had a little bit of everything. We would definitely rent this house again!
Great location, clean. You can tell the host loves this home and it shows in every aspect of the property. Great location, beautiful outdoor setting. Thoroughly satisfied with our stay
Lovely house located directly on the Schroon RIver. Very comfortable and clean, well equipped kitchen, large dining room, canoes and a kayak. We'll be coming back!
When Ăżou need a vacation and want to feel like you are at home, this is the place to go. There was nothing that could have been better than our stay at the River Retreat. Immaculate, comfortable, fun. Thank you for sharing your home. Can't wait to book for next year.
Our family had a great time here. So much to enjoy on the property and the surrounding area. The property was clean and spacious, and every effort was made to make it welcoming. Would definitely recommend to others. Hated to leave.
Everything about this property was excellent. Beautiful home, outstanding host, great property
Couldnât ask for anything more for family vacation
Easy access to river with kayak and canoe.
All appliances in perfect condition. Comfortable beds and plenty of space for clothing.
Spotlessly clean. Within 30 minutes to tourist attractions in nearby towns.
It was perfect for our group which included two people with mobility problems. Not handicapped accessible, per se, but manageable. Host was very helpful throughout our stay and weâd welcome the chance to stay there again in the future!
Great location. Owner always quick to respond to questions. We brought our kayaks and had plenty of places to go. Close to North Creek where we did the Revolution Rail and North Creek whitewater rafting co. Highly recommend both.
Great location,(private lot on the river, 20 min drive to Lake George) very clean and comfortable cottage. Dan,the owner, was easily accesible for any questions. 4 good size ,well- decorated bedrooms-the 3 we stayed in all had comfortable sleep number beds. We enjoyed hanging out on the dock,fishing and kayaking on the River. The weather was 90+ during our stay having A/C in the cottage was awesome.
This was a great location and house. Lots of room for everyone. Beds great! Just as nice as the pictures. Only issue was the dock on the river, ladder was rotted off, had to walk in the mud to get back to shore. yuck! Easy fix though.
Very nice home in a lovely setting. We really enjoyed the firepit and used it all but one night. The house was clean and well stocked, and well taken care of. The sleep number beds are very comfortable. Dan checked in on us the next morning after check in just to see how we were doing. He was also very prompt to answer any questions we had. It is conveniently located and not far from many attractions. Hardly any mosquitoes so we could sit out on the deck and enjoy the beautiful weather. Would recommend this property.
Beautiful Home, Great Amenities, Excellent Communication
My family and I really enjoyed our stay and the house was perfect. I really like how well thought out the grounds were. The home had a very secluded feel but was only a short trail hike to the Crossroads general store. The supermarket was also only a 5 minute drive away, which isn't always the case. We also appreciated the canoes and supplies available. Dan was a great communicator made sure we had what we neededat each phase of our stay. You can tell the Schick family has a lot of memories in this house and take good care of it. It's not a rental-only home.
My husband and I brought our two sons and their 3 best friends for a 3 night stay. What an amazing time had by all! We lucked out with such wonderful weather, no mosquitos (!!!) and such a beautiful and smartly laid out property. I wish photos could convey the absolute beauty and the feeling you get when you are here, because truly everything about this place was perfect. The large deck has a clear sight to the dock (brilliant) and the walk to the dock itself is a few minutes. Couldn't have asked for a better set up. The provision of canoes, kayak, paddleboat provided hours of endless entertainment for all of us. Dan has clearly thought through every detail of this house and it shows. I think we will have to make this an annual getaway!
We have made this our vacation home! This is our second year staying, next year some of our group has already booked and we are booking again the year after. Beautiful view on the river, perfect for easy, smooth kayaking. Lots of wildlife friends come to visit, lots of amenities inside and outside the house! New dock this year for swimming or just viewing the morning wildlife, perfect firepit for cozy nights by the fire. The upgrades inside the house this year made it even more gorgeous and Dan is so easy to work with! We love this place and every time we bring people they end up wanting to stay another week! A lot to do in the area, this time we did a private 4 hour bout cruise with tubing on Lake George, hiked the Natural stone bridge and caves, and took a scenic drive to lake placid, Kayaked a few places and went river tubing. All highly recommended we had a blast!
We found the home well equipped for our comfort. We traveled North South and west for many near by activities. We would stay here again and recommend the house and owner to anyone looking for a fun and interesting get away
We had a great time visiting the area...the house was stocked well with essentials needed and canoes and kayak there for use....loved the convenience of being able to buy wood right on the property for firepit!
We did the rail bikes in North creek and went to Lake George...
At the house we saw deer and even saw a Black Bear...
A great time was had by all and the host is very responsive and checked in to make sure we were ok...
