Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It's open concept really allowed us to enjoy quality time with the family and family dog. The bedrooms were spacious, especially the one upstairs with the king bed. Additionally, every room as well as the common areas could be temperature controlled. The loft described actually is a semi private area with a bed and is accessible from the stairs heading to the bedroom on the second floor. I've stayed at a different house with a "loft" that someone would have to climb a ladder to so no one in my family was interested in that. The kitchen had everything we needed and the large wrap around deck was fun to sit out on. The house really made us feel one with nature with the large windows and we loved it. The location was 5 minutes away from a small town and about 15 minutes from Lake George Village. There is a market and many restaurants about 5 minutes from the property. There is an outlet about 20 minutes from the property, as well. The neighbors are nice and with a short walk down a path there is a small, private beach. There are two paths to the beach, one is more steep than the other, but you have the option to drive your family members down to the beach and then park back at the house. The owner, Ted, was very friendly and responded quickly whenever I had any questions. I would definitely stay here again.
