Lovingly restored historic Adirondack Bird Camp is surrounded by wildflower meadows with beautiful mountain views. Located on family compound of glamping tents and unique cabins.

Guests can enjoy a hot tub experience in the new Japanese temple-like spa! Most nights hosts offer wood-fired pizza. The property is close to rail biking, whitewater rafting and the town of North Creek.
Lovingly restored by the great-granddaughter of the original owners, this unique historic cabin still retains many original details and decorations. Many visitors say they feel like they’re stepping back in time. There are lovely leaded glass windows, a handsome rustic stone fireplace, richly stained wood walls, beautifully faded oriental rugs and original china. There is a tidy new country kitchen with reclaimed porcelain sink, new gas stove, fridge, microwave, dishes and utensils.
On the glassed in porch is a single bed and there is a sofa in the living room. The house sleeps four to six comfortably: there are two bedrooms each with double beds. Upstairs are two bedrooms each with a double bed, wide pine floors, and country décor. After 100 years of using an outside “privy” back when the property was just a summer “camp”, there is now a bathroom -- claw-foot tub with shower hoop and beautiful vessel sink on original ladies wash vanity. Towels and soaps provided. The bathroom window offers the best view of the mountains.
There are treasured family hand-me-downs as well as odds and ends which nobody felt comfortable throwing away. Like all family camps, there are bits and pieces of everyone who came before; wooden floors record the scuffs and scratches of generations. There are many photographs showing life at “camp” since the turn of the century. All this gives this Adirondack cottage its own special personality, a unique sense of space --- a treasury of feelings, sensations and memories of family and friends.
The land is truly spectacular. In summer, wildflower meadows spill down the hill, flanked by beautiful forests.
The hosts welcome well-behaved dogs as long as they stay off the furniture and isn't left alone in the house. The dog must also stay on a leash outside, to protect the chickens and ducks on the property.
The Hudson River is at the bottom of the little mountain. In the spring, summer and fall, there is white water rafting for reasonable rates. Guests can also rent a tube and float down river --- the nearby rafting company can be used to rent the tubes, offering to pick guests up and bring them back. Of course, the river offers fishing, bathing or just a great place to sit by and think.
Enjoy a hot tub experience! Built within a beautiful Japanese temple-like structure on one of the most beautiful spots of the land, an all natural no-chemical hot tub is a delightful way to start the morning. Guests can relax after hiking or winding down after dinner. Available for a private experience for $25 per person for an hour of wonderful relaxation. Guests should contact hosts to book this.
The hosts have a happy lab dog Sammy who enjoys spending time with guests. There are free ranging chickens --- get some eggs from the henhouse --- and sweet waddling ducks.
Most nights in the summer, hosts offer wood fired pizza. Hosts make and provide the dough, and guests bring their own toppings. The wood-fired pizza is fired up in the late afternoon. By six, the wood fire has died down and the oven is about 800 degrees. From six to seven-thirty, guests can come to the pizza pavilion with their toppings and hosts will help them cook their pizzas. Because the oven is so hot, the pizzas cook in about three minutes. Lots of fun! Host request a donation of $8 ($5 for children) for firewood, dough and maintenance, if possible.
The cottage is an easy scenic drive from NYC --- just go north right up Route 87, get off just past Lake George and then a beautiful 30 miles drive through the mountains to the property.
These delightful glamping accommodations feature wood-burning stoves, an outdoor fire pit for guests to toast marshmallows on an evening and even an all-new natural wood hot tub!. The glamping tents share a common bonfire which is great for getting to know other guests and singing campfire songs. Additionally, glampers can thoroughly enjoy amazing stargazing at night from the comfy Adirondack chairs. The host prefers to get fires going for the guests.
