About this property

Upper Saranac Lake House

Relax and Recreate with the whole family at this charming Adirondack lake community home, 24 miles from Lake Placid. Between the towns of Tupper Lake and Saranac Lake.

Located in a secluded, private lake community with a beach, docks, picnic tables on Upper Saranac Lake. Paddle, sail, bike, hike, climb, ski, x-country, snowshoe and snowmobile. A boat slip usually available. Enjoy all of the Winter Olympic competition venues. Visit the Wild Center, and The Blue Mountain Lake Adirondack Museum.

Perched on a hill in the forest, this casual and cozy Adirondack mid-century expanded cape style home is a 4 minute walk from the community beach and docks on the lake. A boat slip is usually available with prior arrangement.

The main floor has a large open living room/dining room/kitchen area with washer/dyer access in a closet, master bedroom, and full bath. A huge deck with grill and screened in porch make it perfect for entertaining the whole family. The upstairs boasts three bedrooms that share a bath, and the house is bathed in sunlight within the tree top canopy. If you MUST work, the upstairs bedroom/office desk lets your spread out, and get it done in the natural light.

The Lake House is on a hill with a considerable driveway and we never know how much snow we're going to get in the winter, so if you are visiting in the winter you will need a Four Wheel Drive Vehicle and boots! There is a picture in the listing. Please email us with any questions.

Guests have the use and exclusive access to the entire main house including 4 bedrooms, two baths, open kitchen/dining room/living room, Open deck and screened in porch, and unfinished basement with water toys. The community waterfront is a 4 minute walk away, or drive, or bike. Guests have use of the beach, lounge chairs, picnic tables, docks, and fire pit, and boat ramp. A boat slip is usually available with previous arrangement.

This home is close to the western access to the Adirondack High Peaks region for hiking and climbing, and endless lakes and rivers to explore by paddle, sail, or power boat. Winter sports include skiing, x-country, snowshoe, and snowmobile.

Just 24 miles away is Lake Placid, home of "The Miracle on Ice", and all of the 1980 Winter Olympic Sports Venues for the upcoming SIU World University Winter Games, and countless World Cup Tour Competitions.

Great house for Adirondack stay
We had a family gathering, and Bruce's house was perfect for that. Large and comfortable common area and dining area, nice bedrooms and bathrooms. Large screened in back deck, saw lots of hummingbirds feeding on the Bee Balm! Very nice beach area, we used the canoe and kayaks. Bruce is very responsive and generous with his time. Great location for touring some Adirondack highlights.

Lovely vacation at Saranac Lake
We decided to go to the Adirondacks for our annual "girls trip." We really enjoyed our stay at the house. It is an easy walk to the shared beach on Upper Saranac Lake. Central location: we went to the Wild Center, The Adirondack Experience, and especially enjoyed the Raquette River Brewery in Tupper Lake. There was plenty of room for 5 of us, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked as it is his family's vacation home. The well water was cold and refreshing. The screened in porch was nice; we didn't use the firepit as it was black fly season. The hot tub was under repair. The host was very responsive; and questions we had were answered quickly. We are already talking about returning next year.

Nice secluded spot
Bruce was great to work with. The house was ready for us, and despite a lot of snow just before our arrival, Bruce had the driveway plowed and clean. The driveway is pretty steep so 4wd is recommended in the winter. Cool house with a lot of charm.
