The river is amazing

The riverfront is the entire reason to stay here and it is amazing. The Hudson is amazing and we rented jetskis about a block away. Super fun. Not a fan of the neighbor's’ political banners and signs, pretty unwelcoming. Otherwise the host was very accommodating and friendly and it was a great stay!

Very disappointed

On a main rd. Very noisy heavy traffic. Dilapidated houses surrounded the property. Contacted the owner when we got there & she said no refund so we stayed. The water view is only good if you literally go down on the rocks. Then she harassed me that night while we were out to eat texting about my stay. Then showed up knocking on the door 5 minutes after we got back & told us to leave if we didn’t “Love” the place. I said it was fine because she wouldn’t refund us but “fine” wasn’t good enough. I’ve been using Vrbo for 5 years & never had an issue like this. Very very misleading & very disappointing.

Gorgeous unique property!

The house was great and comfortable but we didn't stay in it much because the backyard with the river was gorgeous! We went down to the river for hours and then went to Lake Luzerne to kayak. Then hike at Bear Rock Slide which was an amazing place too. It has places to walk to for food. We loved this property and will be back.

Summer 2023

The location is great. We were able to walk to many activities right from the house. We walked to the Railbikes, white water river rafting, the beach at the lake, the truck and music at the park, the store, and a park with a basketball and tennis courts. There is a great place to get breakfast you can also walk to right across from where you get the rail bikes. The market across the street has everything you need. There are also many other things to do that is within a 20 minute drive such as 3 different putt putt gold courses, and a place called the Bear Slides which is a natural water slide-my 10 year old grandson had a blast there. The property manager was great as she gave us many suggestions on activities. And let's not forget the amazing river right at the property-my dogs swam for a good 2 hours one day in the river. The first couple of days the river was really flowing and was intimidating but once we got our confidence up it was amazing. We had a fire a few nights and there was plenty of dry wood right at the property. If you want a place where there is a lot of activities this is the place for you. It is a small town so there isn't a lot of restaurants but if you want to play-stay here and you can always drive to Lake George to go out to eat. It was great to get my grandkids off the video games for a week and out doing adventures.

Great place to spend your vacation!

My family and I had a wonderful week! Check in was very easy and the host was very responsive and easy to deal with. This is truly a unique property with tons of privacy but everything you need is just a short walk or drive. We took full advantage of the river literally in our backyard and the views and sounds were awesome. Lake Luzerne was walking distance and the park adjacent to the Lake has live bands and food trucks weekly which was like a step back in time. We did drive into Lake George one day and that was an easy drive to all the activities they have to offer. However, we were totally happy just taking advantage of the river access and a highlight was when a bald eagle flew right over us on his way up river.

Beautiful area & communicative host

This rental is just as described with a backyard that leads right to the Hudson and was perfect for a small dip. Even with the intermittent thunderstorms throughout our stay, we still enjoyed the view! The house itself was cozy and well-equipped. All items listed in the Amenities were available and ready for use (including a good amount of the named toiletries, which not many rentals bother to provide so this made our stay even easier). The lighting for the dining room table was perfect for games and the A/C kept the house a good temperature on even the hottest days so we could stay in when we wanted. As other renters mentioned, the stairs to the upper floor are narrow and the path to the river is rocky so both would prove a challenge for any visitors with mobility issues. This didn't stop us but is certainly important to keep in mind. We had one issue during our stay and that was the level of pet hair present. We know this rental is pet-friendly but we were still finding it after through vacuuming, sweeping, shaking, etc. The only way our stay could have been improved would have been with a more through cleaning between renters. Finally, the host was very responsive and kind, making our trip even more worry-free. Absolutely would recommend to others looking at the area.

Beautiful backyard!

The backyard and access to the river were awesome. The porches could use some general cleaning and updating. Rest of the house was clean and in good shape. Enough pots and pans and utensils in the kitchen. Luzerne Market is walkable and has everything you may need. The house is in a pretty, but very small town and a short drive to Lake George/Glen Falls/Saratoga Springs. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Somewhere a little different

We typically go to the beach. This spot with its rock and sand beach, swimming, and wading spots, good fishing all in one place was fabulous. It was quite and private. The home was just as described. Clean and simple. The path to the beach area is a little tricky but worth it.

Clean and Rustic

The house was perfect for our needs - especially with a dog. It was very clean and rustic. We loved the quiet of Lake Luzerne after Lake George and Saratoga Springs. The backyard is beautiful with all the trees in full fall color - we enjoyed spending time on the deck and evenings by the firepit. The kitchen was sparsely furnished - salt, pepper, sugar and one roll of paper towels. The lobster pot needs to be removed from the amenities list - the fish market where we purchased our lobster was kind enough to loan us a lobster pot and utensils for the evening. The stairs to the bedrooms have a high rise which could be challenging for anyone with mobility issues. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this property to anyone with pets.

Beautiful spot by the river

The star of the show here is a simply gorgeous and surprisingly private section of riverfront you can walk down to from the house. The area on the rocks by the river, complete with several beach chairs, was perfect for a morning of relaxing in the sun with the dog and ogling the lovely geological formations carved from centuries of water flow. The house is has some great features — a good sized TV, speedy wifi, nice large bathrooms, comfortable bed, all the appliances you'd need. But of course the main event is the riverfront and the yard that leads down to it. The yard has a two lovely spots to sit and have a small fire if you like, and look out on the river from above. We loved that we could bring our dog, and the host Diane was very accommodating, communicative and responsive. Our visit was unfortunately cut short by a massive storm that cut the power to the whole town, but Diane was helpful and made sure we were taken care of. We fell in love with the spot by the river, and plan to come back as soon as we can!

Family vacation

House suited our needs. As described, does require balance due to steep stairs in house and to get down to the river. Spent a lot of time fishing while down there - small blue gill and small mouth bass mostly, check out fishing regulations for keeping size and eating guidelines! Market is very close walk and had the needed groceries (and drink). Hadley had a kids playground (3 min drive/15 min walk) and Sacandaga Outdoor Center is a 2 minute walk across the bridge.

Family Vacation August 2022

My family of 4, a girlfriend and my nephew, all over the age of 21 stayed for the week. The house was very clean upon arrival and there was plenty of ample space for everyone. Two fireplaces with one directly in backyard and another just down the hill a bit overlooking the river! The trek down to the river could be considered a little challenging for anyone unstable on their feet but once you get down to the river, WOW!! We all had so much fun tubing, rafting, swimming and fishing! We caught some small mouth bass and sunfish but nothing big enough to keep but it was still fun to reel them in and then carefully let them go. The view is amazing and so tranquil! There are 2 small sandy areas to enter the water. There are also some rocks with deep enough water to jump from. We tubed and rafted as far as we could against the current toward the bridge to get waterfall photos which is also just a short walk from the property. Lake George is about a 15 or so minute drive where we went for water front dining, mini golf and ice cream, breakfast and also a luncheon cruise! All was very much enjoyed! Definitely recommend this property for a relaxing and fun family getaway!!

Our review......

The house was clean and nicely furnished. The view was incredible as it had just snowed and the melting snow made the river incredibly high. Some things I think should be noted: The ice maker in the fridge does not work. The house sleeps 6 people, and you have 6 bath towels for your stay, along with 6 pillows....no extras. The kitchen was supplied with 1 dishtowel, and a half a roll of papertowels (was supplied per contract, along with toilet paper), which was also a very small amount. Also, the 3 bedrooms are on the second floor. Please be aware, that the steps are incredibly steep. Granted, our party of 4 were all over 60! All in all, we had a great time, definately a beautiful area!!
