Beautiful home
We loved this property. The location was great. Very close to the shops and right on the water. Beautiful home and fully equipped. We did not need anything. The only negative is there are a lot of stairs inside and outside. However it would not stop us from staying there again.

Wow, What a View!!!
This is the perfect place for a large group gathering; so many bedrooms and multiple beds in some. The home is comfortable with large seating areas and all of the utensils you would need. I loved that it was close enough to walk into town if you need some exercise or a very short drive if you choose. The peaceful porch and dock were the preferred gathering places for our group with a lovely view of the lake and the feeling that you are isolated.

Old Forge Family get away
This is a older lake house in perfect condition and very well suited for a large family or group. The location is right on the old forge pond/channel and also very walkable to town. The owners have spared no expense in insuring their guests a comfortable stay with every amenity they’ll ever need. We would definitely return!

Great location and great house
We had a family getaway with four generations under one roof and this house has something for everyone. The kids loved the game room ( not so much a room as it is the entire third floor!! Bubble hockey was the clear favorite). They also loved fishing, kayaking and the swing set. We did all the meals at the house and the kitchen has all the hardware you could hope for. The living areas and the front porch were great. The fall weather was perfect. We did a day trip to the Wild Center and everything worked out well!

The Gateway to Get-a-Way
I had done a lot of searching in three different areas of the state while looking to book and ended up in a place most familiar to me. Nestled in Old Forge, the gateway to what the ADK has to show and give you, this property was just what we all needed. Traveling from Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Rome, we all enjoy getting away from the city from time to time but also need a bit of modern still within reach. This property, in this location, gave us that. Clean, huge, well decorated, well maintained, and well-manicured made it all well enjoyed. The owners were great to coordinate with and the amenities offered by them and their property left us wanting for nothing more. A nice dose of medicine for the soul that was as sweet as could be. Our thanks to the owners and the town of Old Forge.

Awesome house in Adirondacks, close to Old Forge
We had a wonderful stay at the house in Old Forge. There was plenty of activities, kayaks and stand-up water boards right on property. There was even a wide range of sizes of life jackets available for our use. The 3rd floor game room was wonderful and got a lot of use on rainy days. The wrap around porch was a huge hit. There have been many updates since we last visited there 4 yrs ago, including railings on the steps to the waterfront and dock. The house is well stocked. We look forward to visiting again. I would definitely recommend this property

Great Getaway
The Victorian house inside and outside was beautiful and peaceful! We enjoyed everything from the large dock, the beautiful and restful porch, the large and well equipped kitchen and dining room, and the big bedrooms. We played games, kayaked, took walks, enjoyed the hot tub, and went to the movies. The town is only minutes away, and the house is really "tucked away" for privacy and quietness. Owners were very accessible and friendly.

Wonderful Escape!!!
The house was AMAZING! It was so nice to escape the chaos of the normal day to day. It was close enough to the town that we could run and grab a few things if needed, but was far enough away that it was quiet and relaxing. The rooms are all large and there was definitely enough space to comfortably sleep all. The kids loved the game room upstairs! The private dock was nice for fishing and the fire pit was great for the evenings. All in all and excellent stay in a beautiful house!

Beautiful Home on Old Forge Pond
This is a beautiful, very large home on Old Forge Pond. We would suggest booking with Lisa and Nate. The owners quickly responded to our questions . So many amenities, including the hot tub and a beautiful view from the dock. It was a cold weekend for October, so we spent much of our time inside. Plenty of space for 4 couples. We very much enjoyed our stay and will book again. Thank you.

Great space & Location
The listing doesn’t do justice to this home. Close enough to Old Forge to walk and see all the town has to offer, but not so close that you feel like you’re part of the constant activity. Beautiful home with many updates, HUGE dock with all kinds of water activities (kayaks, peddle boat, paddle boards and all the safety equipment). If the weather isn’t too good there’s lots of activities in the third floor game area and every TV has access to multiple carriers to watch anything!

Tucked Away
This was my first time renting from VRBO and what a way to start. Tucked Away is an incredible home, everything you could need was here. Right on the water. My 8 year old grandson loved fishing of the dock. We went Kayaking and paddleboarding ( which came with the house), had a fire all three nights and celebrated two of my sons birthdays. The kitchen and butlers pantry were well supplied. The frosting on the cake, so to speak, was the third floor game room. My grandchildren couldn't decide what to do first. Would definitely rent here again. Loved Tucked Away, thanks Nate and Lisa

Perfect Stay 😊
The house is stunning and perfectly located. We had a large diverse group, some like to shop, others Hike and some just want to relax. This house is perfect for all! The view from the dock is amazing and we were able to watch the fireworks in Old Forge from the dock. Thank you so much for opening your home. Had so many laughs around the large tables, and so much room for everyone to have their own space. The images on the web page does not do this place justice. Thanks again!

Great house for family gatherings
The house was perfect for our needs, lots of room and nicely furnished. Large laundry room off the kitchen with a second fridge and beverage cooler, as well as much needed counter space. Hot tub on the patio off the kitchen, very nice, looked brand new. Well equipped kitchen with baking pans and trays, mixing bowls, 3 sets of dishes, lots of wine, beer, and other drink glasses, an espresso maker, Keurig, and drip coffeemaker. There is a butler's pantry between the kitchen and DR that houses most of the pans as well as a large crock pot, mixer, etc.. We loved the huge dock, but aren't fans of those camp chairs in the bags so we used the ones from the patio near the kitchen. Loved the 4 kayaks, paddleboard and paddleboat. The house is near town, and yes an easy walk, my husband and I did it a few times. Even though the house is on the channel linking Old Forge Pond with First Lake, it is fairly wide and plenty deep enough for swimming, but probably very busy with boaters in the summer. You can see the town from the dock. We loved the porch, however many of the cushions were stained and in need of cleaning; same can be said for the sectional sofa in the LR, which was very dirty. I would rate it at 4.5 stars because of that. There are plenty of bath towels and kitchen towels, but I counted only 6 beach towels, not quite enough for everyone. There is a big table in the kitchen that we used for the kids, and adults ate at the even bigger table in the DR, which worked well for all. Nice to be able to house the whole family so we could enjoy a week together, we would vacation here again.
