Great spot for our family vacation!

We’ve gone away for a week with my cousin and his family for 10 years. This was one of our favorite houses. It was very clean and offered all the amenities we needed. The kids and adults loved fishing off the dock and kayaks and canoes were great for cruising around on the water.

Just wonderful

We found The Roost to be perfect for our long weekend. It was very spacious and had everything we needed. The lake war calm and peaceful, perfect for trying out kayaking and refreshing our canoeing skills and we didn’t even mind ( too much) when it rained. The owner was very communicative. Thinking of returning!

Beautiful house with comfortable living areas and bedrooms with great views .The kitchen was great , just bring food to cook! Propane bbq grill worked great and firepit was nice. Great location with a quiet lake steps down from the house. Nice golf course directly across the street with little to no wait to play. Great location, close to Lake George. No complaints.

Summer family time

The property was perfectly located for peace and quiet. It’s located on a lake which allows for nature sounds. There is fresh water fish in the lake and it is so clear you can see the fish swimming in the water.

Great time at The Roost

We go to the beach every year but wanted this year to be different! The cabin was very clean, had all the amenities we needed, plus a great quiet location! Tripp lake had tons of fish and not at all crowded. ! The manager was very prompt in reaching out when we had a question. Highly recommended

Sept. 2024 Vacation at the Roost

We spent a week at the Roost in September and had a wonderful time. Communication with the owner was easy and responsive. We had no need to contact the owner during our stay - everything worked as expected. The house is very clean and very well stocked with everything you would need during a stay. The property is in a very quiet and peaceful setting with easy access to the beautiful lake and the kayaks and canoe made exploring the lake (and fishing) a lot of fun. There is even a fire pit with plenty of seating for making smores and viewing the stars. Google maps took us right to the driveway entrance. This is a great property for vacationing with friends and family. Supermarkets are close by as well as a gold course if you like to play. I fully intend to return in the future with more family!

Such a Nice Weekend Get Away

Such a beautiful and private location. Perfect for a small, relaxing, family get together. The view and foliage were absolutely stunning. Kayaks and Canoe were excellent. Fire pit set up was great. The cabin itself is beautiful, but I noticed there were a lot of cob webs and flies, which bothered me. There were also a lot of dead bugs inside of the kitchen light over the island, which was gross and there were multiple light bulbs out throughout the house, but other than that it was very nice.

Weekend getaway for my husband’s birthday

Wanted to go away for my husband’s birthday…. A weekend of relaxing with good friends. This rental was just what we were looking for. The views are amazing! The house was spacious and cozy. And very clean. Loved the fireplace! The beds were very comfortable, which is always a big concern of ours. The pictures on VRBO, although beautiful, do not do this rental justice. I can not stress enough, how much we LOVED this property. We already talked about coming back next year!!! Thank you so much, Cynthia! Sue B

Wonderful property and equipped better than most homes

My family of 4 (kids are 10 & 7) reunited with another family of 4 (kids are 13 and 11) at this property for a week in August 2022. It was simply wonderful. This property is much better stocked and equipped then nearly all of the rentals properties we have done in the past. The owner was always quick to respond to our questions and was very helpful. The view is just magical from the deck and dock. The lake offers great swimming and the provided canoe and kayaks were so much fun. Definitely will consider renting this exact same property for future reunions.
