Cabin was clean and well appointed. Only issue was that the dock was not installed, which made it difficult to get the boats in/out. Also, the decks hadn't been cleaned and were full of pollen and pine needles. We spent 1.5 hours cleaning off the decks, etc. so we could enjoy them. Otherwise a wonderful time. ##### Chris G. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Betsy K. Sep 3, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful, quiet & comfortable little lake house. The house is quite new and beautifully decorated and furnished with just about everything one would need. There is a large deck overlooking Lake George, which we enjoyed every day & evening. About 50 stairs down to the little pier. There is a paddle boat which we used to go around the lake. Also kayaks. I only suggest that a ladder and/or post to grab on to when getting off the boat and up to the pier after swimming. We loved the cabin, for sure! ##### Betsy K.
