Getting ready for Spring. Snow is thawing on the Lake. This immaculately clean home is located 1-min walk from a spring-fed lake (Lake Desolation) and a well known eatery (Tinney's Tavern) in the town of Middle Grove (12 miles from downtown Saratoga Springs). Come and explore all we have to offer in this part of NYS. We are at the foothills of the Adirondack Park. Turn left out of driveway and head to the Great Sacandaga Lake. Turn right and head to Saratoga Springs, Skidmore College, Saratoga Race track, SPAC, SPA State Park or exit 15 (Adirondack Northway).

Property is next to the Snowmobile Trail system (Saratoga Snowmobile Association, Mulleyville Trail System) for walking/hiking.
Enjoy the enchanting and tranquil atmosphere of this cozy retreat. There are 2 decks; side deck with seating and grill, front deck with seating and propane gas firepit.
Whether you're looking to relax indoors or explore the surrounding Adirondacks, this tastefully decorated getaway is the perfect place for guests to unwind.

Great place to stay on Lake Desolation

The house is exactly as described in the listing. Nina was very responsive and quick to address any issues. We arrived during a surprise snowstorm and she had the parking area cleared within an hour. Looking forward to another stay here soon.

About the host

Hosted by Nina Singh

Host profile image
Absolutely enjoying the decision to Host and allow guests in our completely renovated vacation home. Property was once a seasonal camp, very rustic. Now a year round comfortable getaway. Hope you enjoy your stay and feel rested and rejuvenated when you leave.

Why they chose this property

This location is ideal in our neck of the woods. It is next to the only restaurant/tavern for miles, so feels remote; yet it is 5 miles down a mountain road into the Town of Middle Grove (post office, Pizza place, Stewart shop/gas station) and another 7 miles into Saratoga Springs where you will be surrounded by history, horses, and health (Spas, Springs, Baths, historic sites, Race track). The home is a minute walk to Lake Desolation which is a spring-fed lake, ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, fishing/ice fishing and most importantly snowmobile lovers welcome to miles of Trails (Saratoga Snowmobile Association).

What makes this property unique

The home is completely renovated with all updated appliances, furniture, beds, USB/touch lamps and mirror. It's the perfect balance of rustic and modern. There is electric baseboard heating in all rooms plus a gas fireplace for those chilly nights. Outside, there is a gas firepit for romantic evenings or friends/family gathering.
