Peaceful, amazing location

Marjorie was a terrific host. She was very responsive, thoughtful & gracious (and we weren't the easiest guests!). The location is peaceful and amazing - close to the city of Saranac Lake which has with a great natural food store, bustling farmer's market, perfect bookstore and amazing toy/game store but far enough away that it's quiet and very remote. The lake is pristine. We paddled and fished and mountain biked nearby. Should have stayed for more than 2 nights!

Rustic charm

We enjoyed our stay at Camp Jenny! It was a different stay than what we are used to. Zero internet service at the cabin, but when we went out on the water to kayak we could get a signal. Or you could take a short walk to the main house to get service too. Marjorie was available for any questions we had. Always pleasant and helpful. Gave us tips on kayaking locations and hiking options. The cleaning expectation upon leaving was doable but a lot for being on vacation. All floors had to be swept and mopped, toilets and sinks scrubbed, refrigerator shut off and cleaned as well. The last day weighed on my mind because I wanted to make sure we would have enough time to get all tasks done perfectly and on time for departure. I double checked with Marjorie to make sure we were all set! The lighting in the cabin is pretty dim. They have both electric lighting but also gas lamps for additional charm. Also, no air conditioning which was tough during this hot week. The windows did not let in much of a breeze. They did have a floor fan for the living room and one fan in the bedroom with two beds but overall it was pretty warm at bedtime despite our efforts. BUT this is all part of the rustic living and not having the frills. The location on the water was beautiful and worth the trip alone. Having coffee on the deck was a treat. And even sitting on the dock reading at night to my kids was a memory maker.

Loved Camp Jenny!

Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay. Located in a beautiful setting off the beaten path, we were treated to our own vintage cabin which was rustic and super cozy, a dock to launch our kayaks, and fabulous hosts. They went above and beyond to make our visit perfect. We will be back!

Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful.

We highly recommend Cochran’s Cabins. The location is beautiful, cabins are clean, cozy and rustic... exactly what an Adirondack experience should be. The management is very helpful and easy to communicate with. We rented a fishing boat and were able to explore the chain of lakes with ease. It was an incredible weekend and we can’t wait to go back. This will be an annual event for us.

About the host

Hosted by Marjorie Cochran

Host profile image
We own several properties in the area and this cabin is one of our favorites. We have lived in the Adirondacks since 1991 but have been part-time residents since the 1960s. We even attended the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid! We can offer suggestions for activities unless you simply want to rest and relax in a cabin.

Why they chose this property

This is the most scenic area in the east! It is an easy place to rest, relax and enjoy life at a slower pace. Kiwassa Lake is an idyllic and quiet lake and most guests return year after year to get away from the hustle and bustle of a faster pace.

The cabin offers a wonderful deck with Adirondack chairs that allow guests to put their feet up, read a book and soak up the view of the lake.

Often guests will take in a sighting of our lake loon and its beautiful calls. Other guests have said they have seen eagles, deer, fish jumping, wild types of birds, etc…

What makes this property unique

Our property is a dream come true. While there , guests enjoy bird watching, reading and traveling by boat to the nearby Village of Saranac Lake. Often guests will take in a sighting of the lake's loon and its beautiful calls. Other guests have said they have seen eagles, deer, fish jumping, wild types of birds, etc…
