A True Rustic Cabin with Private Access to Bass Lake and Hiking Trails

This rustic and quaint cabin comes with direct, private access to Bass Lake. Perfect for the active couple or family that enjoys nature and hiking, or the couple/family just looking for some peace and fresh air. Loon Lake is with-in walking distance- with great fishing! Perfect for those who do not want to leave their furry family behind, lots of room for dogs to run without worry of traffic. Our cabin has an indoor screened-in porch for those rainy summer nights. A Jotul Wood Stove for those chilly fall and winter nights and a Gazebo screen-house outside by the lake, for a nice cup of coffee in the morning. We are located 40 miles from the Olympic Village of Lake Placid and 48 minutes to the city of Plattsburgh, NY. We are looking forward to your reservation! Enjoy your stay and camp as you like it!

Perfect getaway
Camp Asulykit was absolutely perfect for a quiet getaway. The house is on a quiet road across from Bass Lake, where we spent time daily either jumping off the floating dock, watching loons, kayaking, or letting our dogs play. The house had everything we needed and is close to some great hiking. We would love to be able to go back someday.

A special lakeside retreat
Bass Lake is small but big on beauty and serenity. The waterfront amenities really stood out…a screened gazebo, a swimming dock, canoes and kayaks, a cozy fire pit …and a loon to watch and listen to at night. Hosts very responsive when we had questions…many thanks for the flannel sheets and lots of firewood.

A peaceful place
We enjoyed the time we spent here. Did some hiking and adventured into Saranac Lake a couple times. Although the weather wasn’t perfect we relaxed at the lake when we could. Worked on our puzzle and read. It is generally quiet and at night we could hear the loons. It was a great get away to take time out and spend time together.

A true Adirondack experience.
A true Adirondack experience. Sweet Adirondack camp with a great small Lake just down the driveway. Enjoyed kayaking in the morning and swimming in the afternoon. Kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, gazebo on the lake, fire pit, everything you need for a wonderful Adirondack experience. Enjoyed loon Lake Mountain hike and of course the Vic. Thanks folks for a wonderful stay.

Rustic Cabin Stay
Easy check in process and very nice property with lake access down the driveway with kayaks/canoe. Cleaning process prior to check in didn't appear to be done well, dirty dishes, heavy dust layer on bedroom floors, and no trash bags. This cabin is truly rustic and will bring you back to the 1960s. Overall a nice stay but could use minor updating and a better cleaning.

Terrific Bass Lake Cabin
Just a note to express our gratitude for a terrific stay at the cabin on Bass Lake. It turns out that every detail was a highly valued treat for the whole family, from the kayaks to the snacks to the fire pit to the dog-friendly environment to the seclusion to the complete kitchen and to the bedroom layout, just to name a few. It could not have been any better than it was. Thank you!

Great Adirondack getaway
We had a wonderful time at the cabin. There were plenty of stars to see at night, and the cabin suited are needs well. Check-in and checkout was easy, and we were able to do lots of good hiking near the Lake Placid area. The fireplace was great to come back to in the evenings. The walls/doors of rooms are pretty thin, so there is not an abundance of privacy. The driveway is gravel up a short, steep road. We got up it in a Toyota Prius fine in the fall, but if there had been snow it would've been harder.

Rustic Cabin for a quiet getaway
Rustic style cabin in an out-of-the way location perfect for getting back to nature. Very nice pond-side area a short walk down the driveway and across the road (only a few cars/day). Good assortment of kayaks, canoe, paddle board to explore the pond. Owner was very responsive to an issue with the stove that was quickly resolved. No cell service but could make WiFi calls once connected. Would have liked to have had a document listing activities in the area (within 30 minute drive), such as hiking trails, parks, public access points on lakes, etc.

Beautiful location. Cabin needs some upkeep
We had a nice time renting this property, as the location and lake access made the trip. The lakeside is beautiful, and plentiful boats made for lots of fun! However, the home is in need of a deep clean and some essential upkeep. The furniture was quite loved, pet hair was visible upon arrival, and air quality inside the home was poor. It was apparent that a mouse had rummaged through the cabinets, leaving behind ‘presents’ on the dishes as well. The property has amazing potential, but needs a little extra care.

Great rustic cabin
Cabin was very clean and property was private. We loved how dog friendly it was. Excellent selection of kayaks and other boats. Floating dock could use some work as there are nails sticking out. Would have liked to have one Queen or king bed instead of two twin beds pushed together for couples. Would like a more clear outline of use of Loon lake. Would like better way to contact owner as I sent a message when we got there and it was never answered. If something broke or there was an urgent issue then it would have been a big issue not being able to contact owner. Overall a great Rustic cabin for a quiet week or weekend.

Very relaxing and fun!!
This camp feels like a cozy, warm and inviting place. We love the size of the rooms and the comfort of the beds. The laundry room is fantastic since we have little ones. The kitchen is well stocked so you only need to bring food. The water area is amazing to say the least. We love fishing off the shore, the amount and variety of boats, the dock to swim to, the gazebo, the firepit and the lawn area for the kids to play. We had a fire every afternoon and evening. We are hooked on Mary's camp and we just booked our summer 2024 third camp stay at this lovely cabin and fantastic water area. It is not modern at all and that is what we love about it. We used to rent a modern camp but it did not feel cozy and it was not comfortable. We found this gem that meets our needs for our family camp trip. The check in and check out are so easy! We are all excited to be there again next year.

Great location with lake access
This camp checked all of the boxes for us. Great location allowing us to paddle our Hornbecks on different lakes, almost everyday, short hikes, walking, biking and daily swimming in Bass Lake. Loved the peacefulness and remoteness. After camping kayaking for years, nice to have a comfy bed and a shower. Big fridge, well stocked kitchen, dependable wifi (not robust enough for streaming), screened in porch, many hooks for hanging stuff, and many outlets everywhere. The washer and dryer were great! (Wished the detergent was scent free.) Appreciated the use the garage for our bikes. The location felt very safe for us 2 women. The lake is across the street from the house which I didn't understand until I read the reviews. Just a short walk down the driveway (house is on a hill) and stairs. The pictures are deceiving. Mary was readily available and responsive for questions and concerns. The only criticism is that the camp could use a good cleaning. The shower was really scummy, and the floors could use a hands and knees wash. Baseboards, and surfaces need a good dusting. Also missed a little info booklet about local walks, bike rides, nearest stores, etc. We enjoyed our stay and were grateful we found this camp in a great location!

This was our second year vacationing at this cabin, and we absolutely love it! The perfect place to disconnect from reality and enjoy nature. The lake is beautiful, and they offer a variety of boats and floats to enjoy it. Love that our dogs can come along and enjoy it as well. They love it! Looking forward to more visits in the future!

Private Rustic Gem
This was our third vacation at Mary's wonderful rustic camp. It has everything we want or need. The water area is extremely nice and very private. We spent most of our days fishing, kayaking, having campfires and relaxing by the water. The camp beds are comfortable and everyone slept very good. Having a washer and dryer is a wonderful plus with small children. The only thing we can suggest is possibly placing some solar lights along the driveway. When we walked back to the cabin at night it was very dark and there are no lights to guide the way. Everything else is just right. We are planning to spend another vacation there next summer. Thank you for having a place for my family to make memories.
