My husband, our 2 Scottish Terriers, and I spent a wonderful week at Bucktail Mountain Lodge. We are very familiar with the area, having rented another cabin very close by for quite a few years. That cabin has not been available, and I was very skeptical of finding anything comparable. We were not at all disappointed with Bucktail Mountain Lodge: It met all our requirements and even surpassed our expectations! The cabin is tucked away on a private road, but it’s not isolated. Starting with pulling into the driveway, everything about it is totally welcoming. It has been refurbished inside and out and decorated like a property you see in professional photos. Lights and the AC were on when we arrived, and there was a delicious homemade coffee cake waiting in the kitchen. The furniture was very comfortable. There’s a large furnished screened-in porch in the back and a large covered porch in the front, complete with everything needed to sit out there comfortably (this was one of our favorite places to sit). There is also an area in the yard with lots of chairs and a fire pit. This whole area is lit with string lights, which adds a really inviting and practical touch. Rekka, the host, checked in with us after the first night to see if we had any questions or needs, and we also had the pleasure of meeting her near the end of our stay. We definitely hope to return to Bucktail Mountain Lodge!

We loved it so much we wanted to buy it from them. It’s everything you’d imagine in a cottage in the woods. Close by to skiing lake George village, diamond point, six flags and the outlets. We saw it all. The hiking trails nearby are great too.

Host was extremely helpful and communicative, and the cabin was SUPER cute. We would definitely stay again!

Such a nice, cozy, welcoming cabin for a beautiful weekend in the Adirondacks. Our hostess was more than fabulous, getting the house ready for our arrival with lights and heat and checking in to make sure that all was OK. Lots of privacy but not at all isolated. Our fur-kid was very comfortable and we were as well.
