Great view and comfortable layout. Very clean hot tub under cover and shielded from wind. Parking is a little tight for larger pickups, but wasnât a big problem since we had only one vehicle.
The Cliff House was great. Casey was an excellent host; communicated well and answered every question. The setup was perfect for the 8 of us. The hot tub was a big hit after days on the lake or hikes. Kitchen was well-stocked, having the towels and linens provided (we did bring our own beach towels) was a plus. The AC was good but the rooms w/o it did get a little warm so we kept the windows in those rooms open at night.The path down to the lake provided a good workout and for those who didn't want to do it there was a paved access road down to the dock. The dock area had 4 kayaks along with plenty of space in the cove to swim.We rented a 20' deck boat which fit perfectly into the slip. Highly recommend Snug Harbor Marina for boat rentals.The northern part of the lake, which is definitely quieter than the southern part, was perfect for us. Ticonderoga is about 20 minutes north and there's a well-stocked Walmart SuperCenter. Middlebury, where we spent a day, is about an hour away and has plenty to do both at the college campus (theater/art museum) and around the town.Lots of good hiking spots within 20-30 minutes of the house. We did Black Point Mountain (tallest on Lake George!).All in all a great stay!
Lovely property. Lots of great qualities to it. As advertised, the views were just great. The little bay was so fun to swim in. The location is in one of our favorite parts of the lake near Gull Bay in the northeast area. There were lots of lovely places to sit and enjoy one another.Unfortunately, there were some drawbacks also. One issue we had was the walkway to the water. It was extremely steep and topped with a shale type of stone which was very unstable under foot. And I didn't measure the path but our hunches were it was longer than 150'. We are all fit folks so distance wasn't a problem but it wasn't an easy walk back and forth and it was problematic for our small grandkids and also for bringing anything down. I'm glad we didn't bring an elderly person with us because they probably wouldn't have made it down.Another problem was the kitchen drain. It wouldn't drain. It just kept on backing up everytime we used the sink.The toter to empty our trash bags in was quite small and filled very quickly and therefore we decided to dump our trash at dumpsters in town. We know your instructions said to call or text or email you if we accumulated more trash than could fit in the toter, this just seemed easier.Gosh, I hate to itemize all this but it's probably best you're aware: there was a pair of men's underwear left from previous renters as well as a beer can under the couch.This was a good house to stay in if you don't have small children with you. It is a cliff house
House was amazing. Built into mountain. Decks off every bedroom. Stairs so need to be prepared for the different levels. Hot tub is covered so perfect for our rainy day. Did lots of hiking. Pretty remote location which we loved. âTownâ was maybe 25 min drive. Perfect for our family get away of 6
This property is amazing! We stayed for spring break - and it was great to stay before all the tourists arrive next month. The property itself is clean, spacious, and the views are great. We utilized the fire pit, kayaks and local hiking trails. Even got to see the local beaver hard at work. The area itself secluded and quiet, and has a narrow and windy road to get to. If youâre going offseason, have a 4x4 vehicle. The place also has a generator. When we arrived, there was an ice storm, and the power lines have been damaged. We had zero interruption of power/heat - just internet, which was fine with me. We all had books to read and trails to hike. I was actually happy with the forced freedom from the internet. (Though, it came on when power was restored.) The property was located closely enough to the things we wanted to see/do. (Lake Placid, Burlington, cascade mountainâŠ) the drive was beautiful past Ticonderoga. Canât recommend this property enough.
This property is stunning in its location and very well equipped. Although it was just two of us, it can accommodate many more, and the architecture lends privacy and comfort even if there are 6-8 people. The view is spectacular from inside and from each of the balconies. We absolutely loved this house!
We had a great time staying at the Cliff house. The house was super comfortable and if you like the cook, the house was fully stocked with all the supplies. We rented a boat, and I would suggest driving a little further away to get closer to the middle or south part of the lake to get the most out of it. The house and closest marina is quite far north, so the lake is not as interesting but still a good time. Would definitely come back!
Loved our short, relaxing family getaway at the cliff house! Be mindful that the walk to the lake is extremely steep so if you have any mobility issues you would struggle going up and down.
We enjoyed the kayaks and spent most of the day in the water or on the sundeck.
From the moment we started our into this property, we were impressed with the owner's communication! Check in was seamless, the home is beautiful and well-maintained. Creature comforts (dishware, cutlery, etc.) are provided.
Relax in the large hot tub, burn a lot at the firepit, walk down to the waterfront, or go for a kayak. This listing has it all and the owner is readyto
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, just the break from everyday life we needed, kids had great fun and the views were wonderful.
Will look forward to staying again.
Hard to put into words.It was exactly what we were hoping for.So quiet that you only heard nature,we didnât hear one siren the whole stay.Views were breathtaking and water was so refreshing.
Beautiful Location on the Northeast corner of LG in a nice small waterfront cove. Very comfortable and accommodating home with well Equipped Kitchen and island style dining area. Backup generator just wonderful that rode out a very severe evening thunderstorm. Board games present for fun evenings. Lower level table and chairs perfectly situated for game fun or card playing. Plenty of comfortable deck and outdoor seating areas all around home. Boat dock-age available if you bring or rent a reasonable size 20 ft. boat. Don't forget anything that you will be carrying to the boat, dock, or sundeck area! (the path down is not long but rather steep and not well paved) I'm sure the hot tub is fabulous (It looked beautiful) but we had a very hot summer week so we did not utilize it. It was however well covered for inclement weather conditions.
Negatives; parking is OK for 2 vehicles with room for more offsite. Just a bit challenging to not interfere with neighborâs property and watch the boulders across the driveway slightly over neighbors property line. (I scratched up my spoiler on them some). Loft access with ladder style stairs (could be a problem with children or elderly).
I made a fateful mistake of leaving the final garbage bag out the morning of departure and the cleaning service found a bag ripped by wildlife. There are provisions for garbage overflow at an additional garbage shed off premises. My bad!
