Adirondack Fun at our Fingertips
We were a family of 13, four adult couples and 5 children, ranging in age from 5 to 74!! It's hard to find a place that can accommodate us all and the Lake Colby house was it. The house has 19th century charm and it made us feel like we were really in the Adirondacks. Beds were comfortable and Todd did so much to accommodate us, even bringing over a blender for our morning smoothies and evening frozen cocktails! Everyone enjoyed reading on the porch and looking at the lake. The dining room table fit all of us for big family meals. The small table in the living room was perfect for puzzles and crafts. We enjoyed our late night talks and s'mores around the fire pit. Everyone enjoyed hopping in canoes, kayaks and paddle boards and exploring the lake. Even the five year olds were able to master the kids' kayaks. The lake itself was beautiful with lots of areas to explore from your own boat. The public beach was next door and our kids could walk or bike there without crossing a street, which made us feel safe. The kids also made a fort in the wild area past the beach. We all enjoyed walks through the state forest at the end of the road. The location was also perfect for exploring the towns of Saranac Lake and Lake Placid. There were endless activities that matched everyone's tastes. I can't recommend this house enough!

Family time at the Lake
This house and its location are absolutely spectacular. I greatly appreciate historic architecture and the owners have done such a loving job of restoring this beautiful home. The house was equipped with everything we needed. And the boat house had canoes and kayaks for everyone. It was wonderful to see my 10 and 7 year old grandchildren get on their life jackets and take canoes out on the lake. The 4 year old loved the nearby sandy beach. The adults had a great time in the canoes and hiking. It was a good family time together, with family members coming from Salt Lake City, Rochester, and San Diego.

Beautiful Lake Colby Lakefront Home
I recently stayed at this home with my husband and our 4 kids ages 11 to 6. Close family friends also vacationed with us and their family included 2 adults and a 13 y/o. The home is 100+ years old and beautifully restored. The home is huge! As a party of 9 we had beds left over. We spent the majority of our week sitting on the wrap around porch and enjoying the views of the lake. When we weren't on the porch the kids loved fishing from the dock. The home has so many kayaks and canoes! We were all able to explore the lake at once. The home also included a huge variety of life jackets. The public beach which has life guards is next to the property so we could easily walk to it. The kids loved swimming to the platform at the public beach. There are several hiking and biking trails near by, Lake Placid is also a short drive away. There were so many restaurants near by, we loved Tail O' the Pup and La Bella Ristorante. At night we enjoyed sitting around the fire pit and roasting s'mores. Plenty of outside seating was provided so we had less to pack. We all enjoyed the historic home which was decorated with not only Adirondack charm but also many historic items. We could tell that the home is loved by its owners and well cared for. On many days our kids didn't want to leave the house at all, they just wanted to be in the water or fish. There are many board games at the house as well. Every morning the kids would search through the game cabinet for a game to play at the dining room table. We loved that the home was close to restaurants and included so many amenities. The home owner was easily reached and he provided recommendations for different fishing locations on the lake and trails to hike/bike. Our kids said that this was one of their favorite vacations. Overall a great vacation in a beautiful home.

Lake Colby Trip
This is a beautiful lake with plenty to do. We fished, kayaked and canoed. We brought our own canoe, but there were plenty of kayaks, canoes and lake toys available for our use. We took a boat out on the connecting lakes one day and hiked several others. The location was great-close to Saranac, a supermarket and restaurants and a quick easy drive to all the Lake Placid attractions.

Paddling the Adirondacks
Very convenient location. On the water. Our group of 10 adults found the place most comfortable. We paddled each day from a different Putin exploring beautiful Adirondack’s waterways. Spent late afternoons overlooking the water from the deck enjoying a cold beverage and later cooked marshmallows at the fire pit. Would recommend the place highly. Paul

Spring break
The listing described the house accurately and the pictures were helpful. The location was perfect for giving our daughter a break from the dorm room as the college had an abbreviated break of 2 days off so we went to her instead of her coming home. If the weather were warmer it would have been ideal for some kayaking as the lake is in the backyard. It was lovely to have a fireplace and to enjoy. We were able to enjoy cooking together and having relaxing family time together.
