Beautiful and Relaxing

We had a wonderful visit at Cochran’s Cabins. We stayed at Camp Marnie, and it was just enough for the two of us with our senior dog. The bed is comfortable and there was plenty of hot water for our showers/dish washing. We took walks and sat on the dock when we weren’t going other places for an event. If we’d stayed longer, we would have gone kayaking. The area is stunningly beautiful. The towns are quaint with delicious food and coffee, lots of art and community music, and the people very friendly. Marjorie is very communicative and fun to talk with. Thank you for making our trip relaxing and enjoyable.

We arrived ahead of our scheduled check-in time. The cabin was ready for our arrival. Neat and clean. Everything we would need for our four day stay was accessible. The property is peaceful and quiet. Cochren's Cabins are not far from Saranac Lake. We biked, canoed, hiked and enjoyed the fall beauty. We look forward to booking again!

Small and cozy cabin in a relaxing location

The cabin is small and cozy, perfect for one or two people. It was clean and I did not find myself wanting for the basic necessities. The location is quiet, aside from the forest critters, and I had no difficulty sleeping. The cabin itself is surrounded by forest, but it's also a short walk to the lakeside where the view of the lake is uninterrupted by trees. Canoes and kayaks are available for rent and can be used to traverse the network of lakes. As mentioned in the cabin's summery, the cabin itself does not have access to wi-fi and cell service was spotty. That didn't bother me much since I wanted a break from outside world, but I suppose I should mention that. The town of Saranac Lake is less than ten minutes away (by car) and numerous hiking trails are within easy reach. It's a good, central location for many of the Adirondacks' attractions. The host was friendly and available when I had questions. She was knowledgable about the surrounding area, which helped when I asked about local places to eat. Thank you, Marjorie! Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend!

Fantastic experience

I was at first concern the cabin would be a bit too small, but it turned out to be absolutely perfect. Since it has a terrace all around and BBQ facility it was " bigger" than expect. Great location, view of the lake, peaceful .. Nice sorrounding and Saranac lake town also pleasant with lots of thing to offer. I highly reccomend going there

Cabin Camping, Seclusion, Beautiful

Marjorie has a great collection of cabins on Kiwassa Lake. Camp Marnie was perfect for a couple to share and use as a base camp for daily hiking, canoeing and fishing. The rustic cabin has its own deck with picnic table, and view down to the inlet passage to Kiwassa Lake. Short walk will get you to one dock or the other. Wifi access at the "Wifi Porch" let's you check in on the necessary things while keeping you away from tech and distractions while in your cabin.

Pleasant 2-night Stay

The location was beautiful and secluded, but the other cabins were closer than I expected. We were still happy with our stay. Close enough of a drive to town to grab supplies from the local Tops Market while still being away from the hustle and bustle. The sunset over Kiwassa lake was gorgeous, and there are good hiking locations a short drive away. Bring bug spray and water shoes!

Beautiful setting but some updates are needed.

Gracious hosts and a beautiful Adirondack setting are big pluses here! To make this a perfect getaway, though, we have several suggestions: please replace the Absolutely Worst Mattress in the world, and repair the docks below Cabin Marnie - they are unsafe and unsightly. Otherwise, we appreciated the hosts sharing their own dock and their canoe. Inclusion of lake loons was an extra plus ;)

Perfect Quiet Getaway

We stayed in Marnie for five days and didn't want to leave! The cabin was exactly as described in the listing and very clean. Marjorie and her whole family were so wonderful and Lainey (the dog) kept us company everyday. The cabins are nestled amongst the trees offering privacy and peace and quiet. The cabins have a rustic feel with the convenience of bathrooms. Anyone that is use to the relaxing nature of the Adirondacks will really love and appreciate this place. We kayaked and fished everyday right off the docks on Kiwassa Lake and also went into Tupper Lake, Saranac Lake and Lake Placid all short drives from Cochran's Cabins. We also visited the Wild Center and went on the Wild Walk. This was truly an awesome experience and would recommend it to everyone young and old!! So if you go, enjoy your stay and give Lainey a belly rub for us.

About the host

Hosted by Marjorie Cochran

Host profile image
We own several properties in the area and this cabin is one of our favorites. We have lived in the Adirondacks since 1991 but have been part-time residents since the 1960s. We even attended the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid! We can offer suggestions for activities unless you simply want to rest and relax in a cabin.

Why they chose this property

This is the most scenic area in the east! It is an easy place to rest, relax and enjoy life at a slower pace. Kiwassa Lake is an idyllic and quiet lake and most guests return year after year to get away from the hustle and bustle of a faster pace.

The cabin offers a wonderful deck that allow guests to put their feet up, read a book and soak up the view of the lake. Often guests will take in a sighting of our lake loon and its beautiful calls. Other guests have said they have seen eagles, deer, fish jumping, wild types of birds, etc…

What makes this property unique

Our property is a dream come true. While there I enjoy bird watching, reading and traveling by boat to the nearby Village of Saranac Lake.
