South Shore Lake House Retreat

This waterfront home on 120 feet of private Great Sacandaga Lake beach frontage is the perfect place for your vacation. Across the street of this stunning property, you will find your own private beach area with a fire pit, boat dock, kayaks, paddle boards and outdoor lawn furniture. End your nights relaxing by the fire or start your day enjoying swimming, fishing, and kayaking. **Dock, kayaks and paddleboard use are available (weather permitting) Mid May until after Mid September weekend.
During the winter months enjoy skiing, ice fishing and snowmobiling throughout thousands of miles of endless trails.

This cozy 7 bedroom, 4 bath property is located on The Great Sacandaga Lake. Perfect for large family retreats, this multi-family property easily sleeps 14 comfortably, but has room for potentially 16 people. The property is divided into 2 individual houses that are connected by a joining exterior porch.

The first unit is a large 3-bedroom, 2-full bathroom home we call the SOUTH SHORE HAVEN. (Sleeps 10 guest) Walk through the front door into a spacious enclosed porch with double doors that lead into the living room, where you will find a wood burning stove and a queen size pullout couch. As you work your way through the first level, you will find a dining room table, kitchen, and room off the kitchen with bunkbeds. There is also another room with a full-size bed and twin chair pullout bed on the bottom level. Walk up the stairs into an open master suite loft that have two more twin size pullout chairs. Also, upstairs you will also find a large bedroom with a king size bed and a beautifully renovated bathroom. There is also an open side patio where you can enjoy dinner and the most spectacular view of the lake.

The second unit is a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-full bath home we call the SOUTH SHORE HIDEAWAY. (Sleeps 8 guest) As you approach the front door, there is an open patio where you enjoy the outdoors with your private BBQ Grill. Next you walk through the front door into a spacious enclosed porch. Turning left upon your entrance to the enclosed porch will lead you to the back of the house where you will find a master suit with a king size bed and private full bathroom. In the back of the house, you will also find another bedroom that has a full-size bed. Upon your entry to the enclosed porch walk right and you will be taken into the main living of the house where you will find a large dining room and kitchen along with a living room that looks out upon the lake. Behind the kitchen you will have one bedroom with a set of bunkbeds and another room with a queen size bed. There is also another full-size bathroom located directly between the 2 bedrooms. Walk through the living room to another enclosed porch and open patio on the font of the hours that overlooks the lake where you can watch the most beautiful sunsets upon the Adirondack Mountains.

To access the living areas, you will need to be able to climb 1 flight of stairs. There is no access to the garage and parking at the property is limited to 4 spaces in the driveway. Caution!!! The driveway is short and steep!!!! While we have snow removal services with sand and salt in the winter months it can be hard to navigate the driveway without 4 wheel/all-wheel drive vehicles.

Family Getaway
Our family had an amazing long weekend at the lake. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful location to reconnect and relax. This house is the perfect place for a get away; its layout and all of the little extras made it easy to unwind and enjoy the lake. Kyle was an awesome host; providing information before our stay and he was super responsive to any questions we had after we arrived. We can’t thank you enough for the beautiful home and wonderful memories. Thank you!!

Family Vacation
Our family of 17 stayed at the property. The lake was beautiful with a great dock, kayaks and paddle boards. The kids had a blast swimming and enjoying the lake. The owners were extremely responsive. The BBQ wasn’t working and a brand new one was brought the same day. Unfortunately there was a severe storm in the area and we lost power. The owners responded quickly. We are leaving with many fun family memories!

Private Lake access makes this rental fabulous
Rented both sides for a family reunion, ages 1-65. Prepared all meals at home. Kitchen is very well stocked. Spent hours each day at the private lake. Options there are to be in the water, sunbathe on the docks, use the kayaks that are provided, or even steal away for a nap in their hammocks. You will not be disappointed if your group enjoys the water. Grocery shopping is nearby which is a plus.

Family Time
We had a great stay at the South Shore Retreat House! Fully accommodated our family of 12 adults and six children. We were hosting a party at Tinney's Tavern in Lake Desolation and the South Shore House was a perfect place to retreat to at the end of the evening! Kyle was super responsive to any questions we had. Highly recommend !

Spring Break in New England
The property is 30 minutes away from Saratoga and 50 minutes from Lake George. It was perfect for everyone in our 10 person group. We rented both sides of the two family at the recommendation of the owner, and we’re very glad we did. Everyone had a room and nobody had to sleep on couches. The bedrooms are small, but the living room, dining areas, and kitchen are all big enough to operate in. I would absolutely recommend this place. It’s gorgeous when it snows and the roads are cleared well and quickly. The mattresses were incredibly soft as well.
