Nice little Cabin

This property was perfect for what we needed. It was comfortable and had all the amenities for a nice trip. It was centrally located and easy access to all the Adirondack region has to offer. Hosts were very welcoming.

Classic Adirondacks

We had a wonderful time at Terra Alta! The cottages are like time capsules, lovingly preserved and well-maintained, but on the rustic side (as advertised). The owners and other renters were all very friendly and welcoming. There's a small lake beach on the property (with a bigger one 3 minutes away in town), tennis courts, a playground, everything we needed, plus plenty of nature and peace. We'll be back!
