This 4 season cottage is on one of the nicest coves on Saratoga Lake. Close by, are the Saratoga Race Track & Casino, the New York City ballet and concerts at SPAC. Golfers can choose from three different courses. Downtown is known for its shops, entertainment and eateries. You are 30 minutes away from Lake George. Willard Mountain is 45 minutes away. The nearby State Park has nice trails, and is also good for X-C skiing and snow shoeing. A warm propane fireplace awaits your return. Cottage is set back just off the lake front. Directly in front is a spacious patio equipped with a grill and tables and chairs for enjoying your morning coffee, eating meals or just relaxing watching the water or reading a good book. As much as I am an avid pet lover that works with dog rescue, I can not make any exceptions to the no pet policy. Thanks for your understanding. Guests also have access to a small sitting area at the end of the dock which is set up with chairs. (Sorry the pontoon boat in the dock picture is not for use by guests.) There are places on both ends of the lake where guests can do day rentals of boats, paddle boards, etc. Unfortunately at the cottage there is no space for docking of other outboard motor boats, jet ski or another pontoon. Guests are welcomed to bring non-motorized water vessels - canoes, kayaks, paddle boards. No motor boats, jet skis and the like and/or trailers allowed at the cottage property. Sorry but guests can NOT bring any motor boat jet ski and/or trailer of any size. There is no room on the property to park any at the cottage, even if you plan to put it in daily at one of the public launch sites each day. The association also does not allow guests to leave boats/jet skis /trailers in the parking lot at the entrance to the cove. Both front and back doors will be programmed with the same code for easy entrance any time without having to worry about a key. The layout of the cottage is an open plan. A sitting area with wicker furniture greets you as you enter the camp. ** It would be greatly appreciated if all shoes are left by the door as you enter the sitting area. ** This area blends into the living room where there is a TV over a propane fireplace (equipped with a cable box and Roku). Guests can choose to relax on a comfortable sofa bed (a double) or a recliner chair. Next is the kitchen area which includes a table and 4 chairs. There is an additional table leaf and chairs available for larger guest parties. The refrigerator is standard size with freezer on top. A dishwasher is also provided. Cooking is done on a full size range with oven fueled by propane. A coffee maker is available for use. Cabinets are stocked with dishes, silverware, pots, and pans. The cottage uses well water but it is now on an elaborate Culligan system and drinkable. A cooler with spring water will also be available for your use. The bathroom is off the kitchen and guests will be happy to see it includes a washer and dryer along with the usual tub/shower, sink. The improved water system provides great shower pressure, which is a plus for travelers. Each bedroom has a queen sized bed, a dresser, closet and a 30” smart TV. The Silver Spectrum cable package and WiFi is standard for the cottage but guests can access any of the additional "special" channels that can be downloaded with their own accounts. Bedrooms also have a 5' X 5' closet with one shelf. Access to the cottage is down a mostly paved one lane road. Cars entering the cove need to travel a max of 10mph. Guests also need to pull in to a nearby driveway to allow outgoing traffic the right of way. Guest can safely walk the lakeside road to see the cove up close. The cove and surrounding areas have some great roads for biking, so don't hesitate to bring yours with you. If you want a night free of driving, guests can "call" for an Uber. Boaters can launch from public places at each end of the lake. Your host lives a short 20 minutes away if there are any issues you may need us for. A short text will always get a quick response. The host also spends a lot of time enjoying the lake. It is unlikely that our paths will not cross one or more times during your stay on the water’s edge.
