We were delighted to stay at Bill's cottage. The property exceeded our expectations - full of historic charm, yet beautifully maintained and spotless. The yard was larger than it looked in photos, and the sandy swim area was perfect for our kiddos to splash around in. 10 out of 10!

Lakefront fun

Great 4 night stay.With 3 full baths the house and cottage were perfect for our group. Sandy beach waterfront was awesome for swimming and lounging. Plenty of privacy and space. House had everything we needed. Luckily wasn't hot but all rooms had AC units. Great fishing off the dock too.Bill was very responsive if we had questions. We loved this stay !

Everyone really enjoyed the property. The house has a lot of history and character. It is right on the water with beautiful sunsets. It has lots of amenities to keep you busy, canoe/kayak, fire pit, hammock, sunroom, etc. We were there for the weekend. I wish we had more time. I definitely recommend this property.

Four years and counting

We love our summer vacations here. It is a little slice of heaven and is a special place for everyone in our family—from 2 to 77. Owners are great and super easy to deal with. Location on the lake is ideal. And the sandy beach is perfect. Could not ask for better.

A very special place to make memories!

We just stayed for our 4th year in a row and this has become our family’s favorite place on earth! The house is beautiful - well kept with so much charm and a wonderfully rich history. The screened porch with the magnificent views makes this a paradise in rain or shine! Even a day of storm “Debby” couldn’t bring our family’s spirits down. We had the greatest week with memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you and we look forward to visiting again next year!

Belmont Stakes girls trip

The house and smaller cottage were perfect for our group of 10. There was plenty of room for all of us, the house was super clean, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen, a gorgeous yard directly on lake, and the host (Bill) was very good about getting back to us with any questions we had. Also loved the location; quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Lake George Village which is a short drive away. Highly recommend! Hope to book again in the future.
