About this property

Otter Creek Lodge - Large Family Rental

Discover the beauty and seclusion of the unique Otter Creek Lodge. The lodge, built in 1990 on over 100 acres, overlooks a small private lake. Situated in a tall pine forest, Otter Creek Lodge is crafted in the tradition of the great camps of the Adirondacks.

Adirondack Park lands surround the property, connecting it to hundreds of miles of Adirondack State trails. The lodge is ideal for skiing, snowmobiling, horseback riding, biking and hiking. With 800 feet of lake frontage and a large sandy beach, there may be no better place to swim.

We are proud of the fact that 75% of our business comes from repeat renters each year. Many groups over 10 years and some groups as much as 20 years.

The 12 bedrooms and 10 baths make the property a rare find for family and group functions. We offer an additional king size bedroom and private bath for an additional fee for groups up to 26.

Otter Creek Lodge is perfect for family reunions, outdoor enthusiast groups, and small corporate retreats. The lodge, detailed in traditional Adirondack decor, will comfortably sleep 26.

Otter Creek Lodge has over 6,000 sq/ft of stunning Adirondack living space. The tasteful Adirondack style furniture and decor adds to the charm of the traditional Great Camp design of Otter Creek.

The fabulous great room, complete with wet-bar, pool-table room, entertainment center and stone fireplace is the perfect place to entertain your entire group or family, as it comfortably seats your entire group. You can also relax in the additional 2 living rooms, the large screened porch or patio with fire pit.

The recently remodeled commercial kitchen will make preparing for your large group a snap. Easily prepare meals for your group with the large 6 gas burner stove, grill top and double ovens. Store all your food in our 3 bay commercial refrigerator, full size freezer and pantry with plenty of cupboards. The huge dining room will comfortably seat your entire group while you relax by the wood burning stove and floor to ceiling stone chimney. The wall of windows overlooking the private lake is nothing short of spectacular.

Imagine a single private vacation lodge that will completely handle your large family reunion or group. Be sure to make your reservations early.

Amazing Large Group House in the Adirondacks

The House is perfect for big groups. It has the most well equipped kitchen - with multiple coffee pots, plenty of dishes, cookware, even two crock pots. There are numerous bedrooms and bathrooms - we had 18 people and each couple had their own private space. We used the kayaks and canoes on the beautiful lake - even in the end of October. And took a walk on the trails. It is quiet and peaceful. There is enough space to have dinners together and enough space if people want to separate to read, watch tv, sit by the fire. We have rented many large houses in the US and Europe and this is one of the best. Highly recommend to all!

Great property and experience

I hosted a business meeting/retreat at the Lodge for 3 nights with 11 guests. The property has everything you need. We hosted our meetings around the large table and in the bar area. Enjoyed the lake and beach and hiked the beautiful surroundings. Played basketball, table tennis. And we never saw another person. Communication with hosts was straight forward with kick reply times. Highly recommend!

Best ever

Our family holds a reunion every 3 years and we have stayed in at least 10 spots across the US; the group decided that Otter Creek was by far the nicest place we have ever stayed in. Absolutely no complaints and the seclusion and amenities were outstanding. We always enjoy making the main meal and eating as a group all together and the large table accommodated all of us while the kitchen was huge and easy to work in . Thank you so much!!

Awesome stay for a celebration!

We rented this space to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday and it was absolutely perfect. There was plenty of space for the full house indoors and great space outside with the fireplace, porches and small beach with kayaks and canoes. The kitchen was an absolute dream and we loved the bar area as well. Hoping to figure out when we can go again! Highly recommended.

Beautiful! Perfect for a friends trip!

We have a friends Christmas get-away every year and with our growing group, this home was perfect for us. We had 20 people and it still felt spacious plus everyone had their own room and bathroom. That was very important to us! We could also all sit around the large table or gather around the fireplace comfortably. The caretaker was very nice and responsive to our questions. I would highly recommend the property!

Autumn Family Reunion

We had a great experience at Otter Creek Lodge. Our extended family gathers together every five years at different locations, and we all agreed, this was the best rental house ever! There was ample room for everyone, many different sitting areas, and well-stocked, top-notch kitchen (love the giant whiteboard). Plenty of activities for all ages; billiards, ping-pong, basketball, volleyball, Kan Jam, hiking. We finished every day around the fire pit and watched glorious sunsets! Brian, the caretaker, did a great job staying in contact with us and helping with any needs. Thank Jim and crew for wonderful accommodations for our family reunion! We look forward to returning.

Amazing property

We really enjoyed our stay at the lodge! The lodge is very remote and only 1 out of 3 homes on this private pond. The lodge was very clean and had everything we needed to unwind and relax, even with our large group this place had more than enough room to spread out. The view from the deck is amazing overlooking the pond. We really enjoyed the beach area, swimming, fishing, boating and relaxing in the adirondack chairs. We played some good games of volleyball on the nice sand court. Had some really nice camp fires and did some hiking. Everyone from the older adults to the real young kids had a great time.

Perfect place for friends and family get together!!

We had a party of 20+ people and the house is very spacious having most bedrooms are bath attached, large kitchen and lots of game stuff. Both kids and adults loved the place. There is a nice pond close to the house for any water fun activities. Communication with Property manager was very good. The care taker John was helping with every questions we had. . I would recommend this pace for large reunion in a nice and calm environment in the middle of the woods.

Great weekend retreat at The Lodge

This property is absolutely stunning. All the comforts of a hotel in the middle of the Adirondack’s pristine beauty. This house has everything you need to prepare and cook great meals for a large amount of family and people. Large gathering spaces, both indoor and out make it a great place to relax and hang out with family and friends. You will never run out of things to do with a large private pond with comped and kayaks, a volleyball court, basketball hoop and ample space to play other outdoor games. There are lots of hiking opportunities within walking distance. A great find!

Beautiful Lodge

Lodge was very nice, kitchen was amazing, pond was great for swimming & kayaking but no fishing (but good fishing is near by), living space was nice, temps were in the 90's while we were there so no AC was tough for sleeping.

Great setting, well equipped, and cared for

We’ve used Otter Creek Lodge for several years for large 14-22 person getaways. The place is fantastic - the setting is beautiful and private, well kept and supplied. We really have no complaints. All have enjoyed our stay each year and look forward to coming back. Jim Somers, the owner and Mike, Otter Creek’s caretaker, are a pleasure to deal with. Otter Creek is the best rental facility I’ve ever used for family and business getaways.

TEN visits and still going back!!

Beautifully maintained and furnished lodge in a quiet scenic spot next to a pond. Perfect for large groups . Most bedrooms have their own private bath. Awesome cooking kitchen, patio with gas fire pit overlooking a scenic pond, beach area for kids...trails to walk. Just so comfortable, clean and tranquil. Our favorite spot to visit with friends and their kids! The “kids” are now young adults and this lodge remains their favorite weekend of the year! HIGHLY recommend Otter Creek Lodge.

18 Years of the Best Vacation - Ever!

Otter Creek lodge has been a tradition in our family for 18 years. For my family (7 people), and my brother’s and sister’s families (19 people), it has been an amazing place to relax, rejuvenate and celebrate. The natural beauty of this location is amazing and many years we never even left the house/grounds and just enjoyed the property. Now, we often explore the area (locally) and enjoy; hiking, swimming at the water falls, golfing, horseback riding, whitewater rafting…to mention a few. The accommodations are great and property has something for everyone. The ownership has also continued to invest in the property and make upgrades year-over-year. The best complement I can give Otter Creek is the fact that our (now) teenage children look forward to going today, just as much as they did when we first arrived in 2000.
