"Beautiful property. Being right next to the river was amazing. Hearing the rushing water through the house all night was peaceful and relaxing. We loved how remote the location was, even given the other neighbors. We loved the swing on the river bank! Cabin was clean and inviting. The walk in shower was awesome!"

Cranberry Lake New York - Year Round Cottage

Cranberry Lake New York - Year Round Cottage

10/10 Excellent
"This place was a dream. It was the quiet I needed in a place that I love. Laying out on the upstairs balcony in the dark looking up at the stars will be a memory that gets me through stress at home. The cabin was cozy, but roomy. Definitely space for 6. The cabin is across the street from the lake shore, but an easy walk down through the owner's property. The Cranberry Lake primitive state park trails are a short walk away along with a plethora of other trails to pick from within a short drive. My dog and I hiked 20 miles on one day alone with rarely a person in site...unlike the High Peaks this time of year! Only down side was that I did not receive an email to help me know how to get in (as stated in the Orbitz site). The owner was available by phone to assist, but cell phone connection can be touchy, so a secure email with details would have been helpful to refer to. If that is not possible, then it should not be stated as such on the Orbitz or Vrbo sites. Also, for rainy day entertainment, you will need your own wifi, games, or a few good books to read. Definitely a place to go back to!"
