About this house rental
Located on the center peninsula of Blair's Bay, you will discover this charming turn-of-the-century Adirondack summer house (built in 1913) in the historic Glenburnie community. The first thing you will notice upon arrival is the fresh, cool mountain air, scented with pine. Look around.....you will be mesmerized by the magnificent lake views.
The first floor of the house features a large living room with stone fireplace/wood stove; small bedroom; dining room; eat-in kitchen; full spa-like bath and outdoor shower. There are two porches -- one off the kitchen, with a gas grill; another off the living room, with living and dining areas, and a stone fireplace. On the second floor there are three master bedrooms; plus a "glamping-style" sleeping porch with twin beds; two single bedrooms; and two full baths.
Explore the property, with its expansive lawns and old stone walls, terraced down to the water's edge. You might see the Great Blue Heron, who stops by on a daily basis to sun and fish off the rocks. Porcupines, beavers, many chipmunks, and a multitude of birds call this property their home as well. There is an abundance of natural beauty, off the beaten path and removed from the road and traffic.
A typical day might begin with a before-breakfast plunge into the deep, clear water in front of the house. Next, you could hike up Record Mountain for the exercise and spectacular views. You'll need another swim, and you will certainly work up an appetite for an "al fresco" lunch on the porch. Afternoon boating, water-skiing and tubing, and maybe some fishing, add to your perfect "Lake George Day."
Wind down with a quiet kayak journey across the bay, before evening cocktails on the porch, and a backyard barbecue. For those who enjoy lawn games, we have badminton, croquet and horseshoes. Gather around the dining room table, which is identical to the one Georgia O'Keefe and Alfred Stieglitz had in their Bolton Landing home, while enjoying farm-fresh produce and home-cooked meals.
Nightfall presents a spectacular jeweled sky, with the brightest stars you have ever seen. Relax on the Adirondack chairs by the lakeside fire pit, making s'mores and singing campfire songs. There are board games, puzzles, cards and books (and satellite television for those who can't live without it!) If interested, a Reiki Master is available for house calls, to add to your ultimate getaway experience.
This house is the ideal retreat for families, groups, and active nature lovers looking for total R&R in a secluded setting. PLEASE NOTE: RENTALS SPAN SATURDAY 3 PM CHECK-IN; TO THE FOLLOWING SATURDAY 10 AM CHECK-OUT.

Absolutely the best location on Lake George but ancient. Has only one working shower and no laundry.

Wonderful property, private, beautiful. On a peninsula so water on three sides. Pictures don’t do it justice. Host was very available and helpful. Old and very charming house. Phenomenal views. Great hiking right down the block. We are hoping to be back soon.

5 Stars – A Perfect Lakeside Getaway!We spent a full week at this charming lake house and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The views of the lake and surrounding mountains were absolutely stunning. The water was crystal clear, perfect for swimming all day long, and access to the water made it easy to hop in a kayak or just relax by the lake.The house itself has a quaint, cozy charm and offered just the right amount of privacy. It felt like our own little lakeside escape, yet the neighbors we did meet were kind and friendly. We especially loved the peaceful evenings — sitting outside under a sky full of stars with barely a sound around us was truly magical.If you're looking for a relaxing, nature-filled retreat with unbeatable lake access and breathtaking views, this is it. We'll definitely be coming back!

I will start off by saying the property is beautiful. Our families enjoying swimming off the dock and using the available kayaks. Unfortunately, I did not realize how large Lake George is and the great boat trips, railroad biking and nice shops/restaurants were an hour away. We loved spending a few days swimming and hanging out on the property but spent several days traveling an hour each way to enjoy other activities. The property manager treated us more like Inn keepers then guests. She made sure to come by and let us know we had to close the windows whenever we left (despite the lack of air-conditioning and the fact that the upstairs gets fairly warm), pull in all the cushions from the outside furniture so it didn't get wet if it rained, and even came into the house while we were there to complain about our children putting their toys near her art. Be aware there is no laundry washer or dryer, despite the advertised coin laundry. The property manager also takes a $250.00 payment for cleaning service, but you are expected to take all your garbage and recycling with you. You can bring it to a center about 30 minutes towards Vermont. It you live in the Tri-state area, that would add an hour to your trip home. We brought all the garbage/recycling we had from the week the night before we left, to the center, so we could try to clean as much of the trash as we could. However, we cleaned out the refrigerator the next morning and had room in our car for the recycling, but not the bag of garbage. It was a problem for the property manager that we left that bag. I think with a $250.00 fee, that should include disposal of the trash. Overall we had a beautiful week. Lake George is a beautiful location but next time we would choose a different property closer to the main tourist area.
