About this property

Serenity - Lake Front Home On Glen Lake Near Lake George

Hi, Thanks for checking out our Home on Glen Lake! We wish we could be there every week, but since we cannot we hope you can come and love it as much as we do. The calendar for summer of 2025 is open!



Potential Guests: Please note that Glen Lake has many homes lining the lake and they are close to one another. Our neighbors on both sides are elderly, full time residents. They love to see and hear kids outside having fun in the lake, but our house is definitely not the best place for groups that wish to have large late-night parties.
During July and August full week rentals are required. A week is Friday through Friday. During the rest of the year we will consider weekend rentals, however you should know that the town requires a minimum of four nights on any rental.

You'll feel as though you are way out in the woods, but the fun of Great Escape Park and Lake George are only a few miles away. Our home has everything you will need for a wonderful family vacation including four kayaks, a canoe, a pedal-boat and a stand-up paddleboard. With so much to do in the area, all you need to do is bring your energy! The lake front is wide and has a gentle slope into the lake for great swimming and water play. You can even bring your own small power boat and keep it at our dock. We love to roast marshmallows and make s'mores so we have a fire-pit on the lake front for outdoor fires.

Our home has two upstairs bedrooms, one with king bed and one with two twins and a futon. Please be aware that to reach the second upstairs bedroom you need to go through the corner of the front bedroom. We provide a folding screen that can be used to provide more privacy. Please also note that there is NO UPSTAIRS BATHROOM. There is also a small downstairs bedroom with one twin. One full and one half bath are on the main level. We love to cook, so the kitchen is fully outfitted complete with a brand-new range. There is a wonderful deck with covered picnic table, gas grill and outstanding views.

A perfect family getaway

We truly enjoyed the property all around. A quiet location not far from Lake George. The kitchen stove was top notch and all the extra amenities were super! Beds and couch were comfortable. The kids loved being able to walk out to play and fish off the dock. Unfortunately it was too old to catch anything but there was always hope. We would love to stay again!

Wonderful Fall Getaway

The view of the fall foliage from the property was breath taking! We spent as much time as we could taking it in, kayaking ,paddle boating, to sitting around the fire. The house was roomy enough for six adults and had everything we needed. Meg was very attentive and went above and beyond our expectations. Karl was pleasant and helpful in answering all our questions. We had a great weekend!

Great location

The house is an easy drive to area attractions, but we could have easily entertained ourselves for the entire time without leaving the property. Our kids loved the peddle boat and kayaks, and there's a shallow, sandy area that was great for swimming.

Best Vacation

This was honestly the best family vacation. It was absolutely beautiful to walk outside and be right on the water. Our kids loved playing all day in the water. The house was immaculate and had everything we could ask for. Karl the property manager was awesome and even took us for a tour of the lake on his boat. He was so kind and caring , we felt so welcomed. Meg we couldn’t begin to thank you enough for allowing us a chance to stay in your home. We loved every minute of our time there and hated to leave. We hope to get another chance to stay there next year!!

We had a fantastic vacation on the Lake. There were lots of things to see and do. We especially enjoyed being on the water and went kayaking, peddle boating daily. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed and the location was perfect.

The location of this property was wonderful. It's right near the main road to everything.

The kitchen was great, fully stocked and a nice size. The house itself was a great size, unfortunately we thought the house was dated. The furnishings were eclectic at best. I did not like that the bedrooms were upstairs and the bathrooms were down stairs. Also the fact that there was only one shower was a drawback. This is to bad, because there certainly was enough room to put one in. The outside deck was great, especially with the awning. We did crafts and had breakfast out there. Another issue for us was the random people coming by. The owners rent dock space, so people would pass by us to get to the boat. It felt like an intrusion of our privacy.

Great location, well maintained house, amazing support, all concerns and questions answered promptly

I forgot about bringing my own sheets so that was a little unexpected. Luckily, there’s a Walmart only a few minutes away. The only drawback for us was the fact that the Master bedroom was a walk through for our kids room. Again, it was posted, but I overlooked it. Otherwise, a great time! Fishing off the dock, close to white water rafting, Lake George (boring btw).

Serenity says it best....The view is breathtaking.

The location is perfect...close to everything but feels like a hidden gem. The home is spacious, very clean and very comfortable! If you needed anything the property manager is close by and very helpful. The only thing we wished we had was more time!! If I could make this my home I wouldn't hesitate. Thank you Meg, Karl and Frank!!!

Great location and immaculate rental.

We really enjoyed our stay during the Memorial Day weekend. We were very impressed on how very well kept and clean the house and property was. We all enjoyed using the kayaks and fire pit and unplugging from electronics and just enjoying nature is just what we needed!!

Comfortable home in beautiful location

We had a wonderful time at the comfortable, well appointed home with a fantastic view on Glen Lake. We skied and tubed at West Mountain which was a little over 10 minutes away. Karl, the property manager, was friendly and helpful. We would like to return in the summer!

Amazing vacation on Glen Lake!!!

We had a wonderful time at the house on Glen Lake!!! It was even more beautiful than what we imagined from seeing the pictures. The views of the lake from the house are gorgeous, the deck is so relaxing and comfortable, and the adirondack chairs and hammock are also great places to kick back and enjoy the view. We ate most of our meals outside on the deck, in the shade, looking at the water and just feeling great. We used the kayaks every day, as well as the pedal boat, which our 9-year-old daughter loved. We took the pedal boat out into the middle of the lake and jumped into the water right from it, so we really swam wherever we felt like. The water is so clear and a great temperature. We swam multiple times a day. The house itself is very cozy and comfortable. There are books, games, puzzles, and lots of brochures and information about the area. The beds were great and we slept so well. The kitchen is large and has everything you could possibly need or want. We hardly went out to eat, since we loved using the kitchen so much. The bathrooms were also very nice and clean. There's a paved bike path half a mile from the house, which was a surprise to us, and we biked quite a few times right from the property, which was a lot of fun. We also spent two days at Six Flags, and even biked there the second day (taking the bike path most of the way), which was a great way to arrive! We biked to Lake George Village and took a tour boat out on the lake, and went hiking at Pilot's Knob. This was one of the best vacations we've ever had, and by far the best vacation house we've ever rented! We highly recommend it!

Quiet and laid back retreat...Tucked away and yet quick trip takes you to many activities.

My husband and I, along with our friends and their two children stayed for a long weekend. We enjoyed the fire and the deck. The kayaks were a joy! A quiet early morning paddle was a touch of therapy. The location is ideal since it is off the main path but just a few miles from Lake George and even closer to the shopping for rainy days. The set up is great for close friends or a family. Sleeping arrangements are a loft-like king bedroom that you have to walk through to enter the rear room with 2 twin beds and a futon. Not a big deal for "birds of a feather". We discovered a great walking path just down the road late in the trip...wish we could have explored further. A great day long event is a trip to Fort Ticonderoga...What an amazing part of our history! Glen Lake is definitely a gem!

The BEST kept secret..

I travel alot with my kids, and I must say this was hands down the best vacation we ever took. Lake Glen was beautful. The house provied by Meg had everything we needed and more. Not to mention Frank the care taker was there for all and any of our needs (which wasnt much cause they had it all) I cant wait to go back next year. I selfishly dont want to rave about this place cause Id love to keep it a secret..But that wouldnt be fair!!! If your looking for an awesome relaxing week on a beautiful lake this is def the place to go. Its only a few miles from Lake George (which cant compare to Glen Lake). renting places can sometimes be a hassel but Meg made it so easy, and answered all questions. I would reccomnd this property to anyone...just not a bunch of kids looking to party, Keep it family orientated
