Cute Cabin

This cabin is very cute and was very clean. Almost everything we needed was provided at the home and we appreciated so much wood for the firepit, which we used constantly due to how cold it was. Had to pick up charcoal, but it was an easy 15 minute drive to town for this. Sadly, the staircase to the lake is not described well enough. It seemed to be one long stair case down, when actually, its 3 very long staircases and crossing a small street. Its not an easy or short distance. The area is beautiful, and very quiet, and it was a nice getaway. I was disappointed there was two chairs in the living area, which made our plans for a romantic getaway difficult (pictures showed a couch) The shower is very small, as well if you are a plus size person. All in all, tho, this is a nice cabin getaway and i would recommend it in the warmer months of the year to an active and athletic couple/family. The owners are very communicative and fast to respond to even the smallest questions. Very friendly, and easy to work with.

Beautiful Accommodations!!

This beautifully intimate cabin is exactly how described by Melissa. The cabin was extremely clean and STOCKED with everything needed (extra towels, linens, cleaning supplies, cooking ware, etc.). The beds were extremely comfortable and each room had its own fan. Although the master bedroom does not have a/c we happened to get lucky during our stay with mild weather and some rain so the room remained cool. But should the weather have been warmer there was plenty of space in the family room to put an air mattress. They also had a fully stocked shed down by the lake full of life jackets, pool noodles, fishing rods and not to mention full access to their kayaks, row and paddle boats. As someone who travels with 3 kids frequently I can honestly say all you need to bring when staying at this location is your personal items and food. Melissa provides everything else. One of my favorite things about this stay was Melissa’s quick response staying from the moment I booked. She was totally transparent and super friendly through messages. When she says there is no cellular service once you get off the highway she is in fact correct so be sure to follow her suggestions to the T. Thankfully there is WiFi which gave a little peace of mind should there have been an emergency. My next favorite thing would have to be the full sized kitchen with gas stove/oven, full size sink, and full sized refrigerator. The kids had such a great time being outside swimming and kayaking in paradox lake!

We were very pleased. Our only complaint is that we were so far from the beach. I am a senior and could not do the stairs. I did enjoy the porch. It was a very restful stay

AMAZING

Great place and so quiet which was big for me. Everything listed is what you get and you will enjoy your stay from the property to the crystal clear sandy lake. Everything you need is there and everything is clean, new and will make your stay perfect. The host were also so great always there when I reached out to them and though I contacted them a lot, they never made me feel like I was a pain. It was my first time using VRBO and it was a great experience from start to finish.

quiet lakeside cottage

This was a cozy little cabin with a picturesque view of the lake. Loved sitting on the screened porch in the morning listening to the orchestra of birds and enjoying the lake view. My two kids and I so appreciated the many amenities - especially the three kayaks. We also made use of the fishing poles and rowboat. This was such a great location, with many things to do close by but the best was just hanging out at the cabin and being at the lake.

Amazing location, beautiful cabin

The pictures in the listing don't do this place justice! The cabin was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The road was very quiet so the short walk down the stairs to the water wasn't bad at all. We stayed with our dogs and never worried about their safety. The water frontage was amazing. The water is clean, sandy without weeds, and there are cute little rock stairs to get into the water. We absolutely loved this place!

Beautiful cabin

We had such a nice stay at Tamarack cabin. There are beautiful little details in the cabin to make it unique and special. The kitchen table is beautiful! It is also soooo quiet. We stayed for Memorial Day weekend and you could hear a pin drop. We enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boat. There are plenty of life preservers to use! To get to the lake you will need to go down a few long flights of stairs but it’s not too bad. We were about 12 minutes from downtown Schroon Lake so restaurants, groceries, Stewart’s were all easy to get to. It’s also not too far from Fort Ticonderoga so that could be a fun day trip. The area is close to many hiking trails as well. You won’t be disappointed!

Great family getaway in cozy lakeside cabin

We had a great time enjoying Paradox lake at this adorable and equipped cabin! Our host was SUPER friendly and accommodating and had great suggestions for our stay. We have tent camped in the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness many times before and it was so nice to be able to leave “everything but the kitchen sink” behind to accommodate two small kids in this equipped cabin. Kitchen, hot showers, comfy beds, grills, fire pit… Nice views of the lake from the screened porch (which the full sized mattress room is attached to) with your morning coffee! Everything you need. 15 min. To Schroon lake where the grocery, restaurants, Stewart’s (ice cream), laundry, pizza and an adorable movie theater reside. A few miles to the trail heads and gorgeous roads to run/walk on just off Fraternaland. I will say I was surprised at how neighborhoody the residential part of Paradox Lake felt! A few high peaks in North Hudson can be an easy day trip. If you’re adventurous, kayak over to the Peaked Hill trail from Paradox lake. With two small kids, we loved the Stone Bridge and Caves just 25 min. Down rt. 9 and the ICE CREAM is incredible at the turn off to stone bridge road. Don’t miss it if you have kids. Enjoy this cute little cottage!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Lambert and Jaimi Lambert

Host profile image
My sister and I purchased the two cabins and the main house in the Fall of 2013. As native New Yorkers, currently living in Vermont we wanted to find a home that would offer a lake and cabin, quintessential of the Adirondacks. In addition we wanted a place for people to feel as though they were getting away from all the hustle and chaos of work and technology.
We think we have found the place and hope you will too!

Why they chose this property

Both cabins are facing the West and have screened in porches for fantastic sunset views. Great fishing, boating and just everything you could want from the outdoors

What makes this property unique

Fiberoptic wifi available and Verizon pole was recently put up for improved service.
