About this property

Lion's Den Cabin at The King's Pines

Our Lion's Den cabin is on fifty acres of pine woods in the Adirondack foothills. Lovingly hand-crafted, we cut down the trees, put them through our sawmill to make the wood and built the cabin ourselves. The property is secluded and very peaceful. We welcome our guests to hike our trails - winter, spring, summer and fall. We are back to nature and use solar power for the lighting in the cabin. As it is 12V, you cannot plug anything into the outlets. We use rainwater for our bathroom (sink, shower and flushing toilet). The cabin has a queen size bed upstairs and a fold-up full size mattress for extra guests. Downstairs the sofa bed opens to a full size mattress. A generous size porch makes for comfortable relaxation. Come see what the quiet is all about and why our guests love the off the grid experience!

Serenity
It was so nice to stay here and take a break from the world. Beautiful cabin! Lovely trails to walk around and it took us right back to our cabin. Figuring out the plumbing was simple with their directions. The bed was very comfortable and the wood stove heated the house well. Definitely would like to stay again!

Lovely, well-made cabin.
Clean, quaint, perfect for a semi rustic outing. Only got to stay one night of two booked (due to sickness) but it was comfortable and with picnic tables, grill, outdoor fire space, seems like a great spit at which to hang with friends.

Magical winter retreat
Each winter my wife and I find ourselves coming back to the Lion’s Den for a picture perfect break from it all. The wind through the trees and crackle of the fire welcome us back like old friends every time.

A little slice of happiness and relaxation!
Our fourth winter trip to The Lion’s Den was exactly what our family needed on our annual trip! Back to nature, quality family time, and the most serene, peaceful environment for a few days. Rick is a fantastic host and provides outstanding accommodations. Comfortable beds, a clean cabin, and acres of stunning scenery to enjoy! We cannot wait to return next winter!

An outdoor dream come true
Absolutely beautiful property and cabin. Everything was just amazing in every way. We spent our honeymoon here and it was the best memories I’ve ever made. The cabin was so warm and inviting. Definitely would recommend staying if you’ve ever wondered what it is to live in an off the grid cabin.

Perfect cold November weekend
My partner and I came up for a long weekend with our two large dogs. The cabin was perfect with the wood burning stove and the impressive rain water system. We spent our days hiking and our nights curled up by the fire. The cabin was clean, with all necessary amenities for northern NY adventures. Thank you for your hospitality!

Last second trip to the Adirondack region, last second find and what a gem. The cabin is made with much love and passion. The off the grid experience, being all solar power and rain water utilities and they still made it have the comforts of your home. We really enjoyed it and made our short relaxing trip wonderful and romantic!! Thanks again guys!

Perfect Adirondacks Cabin
My family booked this cabin last minute to escape the stress of life for a weekend. It was exactly as described. We choose this cabin because there is a bathroom inside and a large outdoor fire pit area. The cabin was easy to find with the directions provided. There are notes explaining how to use everything on the property. It’s was quiet and beautiful. We could hear the owls and see all the stars. The cabin was definitely warm enough with the wood stove. Highly recommended this cabin. We hope to stay here again soon.

Puppy dog's 1st Trip
The mix of creature comforts and offgrid cabin stay are perfect. The directions for the water system are easy to follow and the system is well designed. Firewood is dry/seasoned and the kindling made a quick job of getting the fire going. The weather didnt provide much juice for the solar being winter but wasnt really an issue. I'd recommend bringing a power source for charging phones depending on expected sunlight. The kitchenette is very well equiped and we made some great meals.

Peace and Serenity
The only problem with giving the best review is people are going to start taking up weekends we will be coming back for. But seriously not sure why this place isn’t rented all the time. I know we will be renting the whole 50+acres some time next year and Lions Den at least a few times next year. Might even try back again before it snows this year.. This is exactly the quiet my wife and I have been looking for. Owners are very responsive and seem so kind. It makes the experience that much better. CANNOT WAIT TILL NEXT TIME. Thank you so much Rick and Maria for sharing the beauty of the hard work put into building those places

About the host

Hosted by Rick and Maria Bohlman

Host profile image
We love sharing our cabins with our guests. So many tell us how much they loved their stay and disconnecting from social media to enjoy the peace and quiet with their families. Many return for another stay...and another.

Why they chose this property

Our off-the-grid cabin offers our guests a unique experience. From pumping their own rainwater for the shower, sink and toilet to using our solar power for the lighting in the cabin, our guests tell us how special the experience of sustainable living was. With 50 acres of pine woods to hike, explore and enjoy, the rolling foothills offers interesting topography. Our cabins are spaced out on the property to insure seclusion and privacy.

What makes this property unique

We're right on the snowmobile trails and just 15 minutes from boat and kayak launches.
We are in the undiscovered area of the Adirondacks. Old Forge is one hour and 15 minutes away. Many of our guests go to Old Forge for the day and then return to the quiet of the cabin.
