About this property

Private lake front cottage with spectacular views & private dock/swimming area.

Feel like you are in the middle of the Adirondacks yet shopping and attractions are only minutes away. This historic stone cabin is located along a dead end road. Surrounded by mountains and water it is very private. The cabin offers wonderful lake views. There is a screened in porch overlooking the lake, a wonderful place to start your day. Then go down the stairs to your private lake front and take a swim. The lake is great for swimming, fishing and boating. While the water off the dock is shallow with a sandy bottom it gets deeper so you can jump in off the end of the long dock. After a lovely day at the lake, have diner on the outdoor patio and relax in front of the campfire. What a perfect day in the Adirondacks! Want to do something else tomorrow? Just check out the local chamber of commerce web site. There are amusement parks, outlet shopping, museums, malls, restaurants, hiking, white water rafting, horseback riding, etc. We are sure you will have a great time.


Glen Lake: Glen Lake is approximately 3 miles long. The cabin is located in the deeper wider sections of the lake. There are two islands, the larger one has a lighthouse and cabin. There is a restaurant on the opposite side of the lake 'The Docksider'. The fishing is wonderful. There is a wetland, swamp area at the inflow of the lake which is full of wildlife and birds. The view from the cabin is of Prospect Mountain, French Mountain and the other mountains separating Glen Lake from Lake George. The water is comfortable and great for swimming and activities. Most of the homes along the lake are year round and it tends to be very quite during the week, especially during the day. It is truly a beautiful place to be.

The cabin: The cabin was built during the 1930's. It is very lovely and surrounded by woods tucked into the side of the hill. The cabin is located on the same property as the owners home. The driveway is shared but the landscaping very nicely separates the two. You have your own private swimming area. It is wooded on either side of the swim area (no one has a beach or swim area right next to you). The view from the screened in porch is breath taking. You can see up the lake, the islands and the sunsets.

Guest comments: We have been renting the cabin for 5 years. Everyone who has stayed with us has really enjoyed the place.
'It is so relaxing' 'Beautiful location' 'Great fishing' 'Plenty of activities for everyone' 'One week is not enough' 'Nicer than we thought'

Cozy lakeside retreat with lovely views and peace and quiet

My friend and I stayed at Stonehaven on Glen Lake for 5 nights and we couldn't have been happier. The historic cabin is nestled among the trees right on Glen Lake. Host has everything you need for whatever kind of trip you're looking for. If you want to relax and do nothing, then you can sit out on the enclosed porch and take in the views of the lake and the hills beyond. If you want to grill, you've got it. If you want to build a fire, you've got it. If you want to take a kayak or pedal boat on the lake, you've got it. I particularly enjoyed the mountain bike trails that are only 4 miles away. Communication with host was fantastic. My friend and I will definitely return if the opportunity arises. Highly recommended.

Great for R & R

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights. We were very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed fishing off the dock and relaxing. Very peaceful setting, yet close to many sites and stores. Accurately represented in the pictures and write up.

Glen lake retreat!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The stone cabin (Stonehedge Cabin) was comfortable and very well equipped. Our host Claire was great! She answered all of our questions and just a very nice lady. The lake (Glen Lake) was very quiet and enjoyed kayaking, fishing and just taken in the scenery. Also enjoyed the outdoor fire. We look forward to booking a future stay!

Gorgeous place

Just a perfect place with gorgeous views in this marvelous cabin built in the 30s right on the lake. The don’t make them like this anymore. It has everything you need. Beyond that was both a lovely sitting dock and a launch dock. The screen porch was just beyond any I have been on. Hosts were kind, accessible, and caring. Will be coming back for sure.

A nice lakeside property

A very cool little location. Right on the lake, close to Saratoga, Lake George, etc. The hosts were super nice. The upstairs section can get a little warm, but the downstairs was just perfect. Excdllent access to running/biking trails.

Peaceful and cozy

Anniversary weekend, it was quiet and peaceful like we had hoped for. Wanted a place near Warrensburg to attend the garage sale, but not too close, was perfect. We enjoyed the lake, fishing off the dock & using the kayaks. Everything was here, we just brought our clothes. We loved this cabin made out of stone - historic, rustic and cozy. The screened in porch overlooking the lake was our favorite area. Thank you so much!

Short Getaway

The house is well equipped with everything you’ll need for your stay. The screened in porch is wonderful. My partner and I slept on the futon since my partner is a big guy 6 4 and it was a better fit. My only recommendation would be some new pillows. We ordered pizza one night from Crave. The pizza was excellent with quick delivery. The location was perfect.

About the host

Hosted by Clair Hensler

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in the area but we didn't meet until we were in our 30's. He is an MD practicing ENT and allergy in Albany. I manage the property, run the household and do small construction jobs. We have one daughter who works and lives in LA. We have an old goat, 7 chickens, two turkeys and a cat. We have always wanted to live on the water so being here is like a dream come true.

Why they chose this property

My husband grew up in the area and spent summers at the camp next door. We purchased the cabin shortly after we were married and spent summers there. Once our daugher was born we decided to build our year round home next door. It was important for us to maintain the natural beauty of the cabin and its surroundings. We wanted to be able to share this wonderful place with others.

What makes this property unique

I just love being so close to everything but when I am at the cabin I feel like I am in the middle of the Adirondacks.
Sitting on the screened porch is like sittling in a tree house. The sunsets can be magnificent.
