“It was a real treat to stay at the Balsam Inn! The Inn is off the beaten path like I wanted and very very quite. Jenny is a warm welcoming host. She even upgraded my room just because it was available. The room itself was beautiful! It felt like I was a guest in someones Adirondack mountain home. Antique furniture, pines cones, snowshoes, layered bedding...like in an LLBean catalog. The bed was super comfy. I had a large screen TV and mini fridge in the room. Although there is a...

“Overall our stay was very enjoyable. The cabin was cute and a nice location. Communication was lacking. We did not get the key code sent to us until we had no service to retrieve the message. After a 6 hour drive we had to drive to find WiFi in order to get access. One of the deck chairs were broken and the grass in the yard was uncut. Overall though the cabin was as described and we had an enjoyable stay.”

“If we could rate Bonnie and Steve higher than 5 stars we would. They were great communicaters before our trip and were nothing but warm and welcoming from the moment we got there. The house was great but what really makes the property is the location and outdoor space. The grounds were amazing and were great for relaxing, enjoying the outdoors, or spending time with friends and family. If you're looking for a remote stay that's not too far from a grocery store, gas stations, ice cream shops,...

“The cabin wasn’t as clean as I would have liked it to be. There was mud and dirt on the futon and the floors and the vacuum that was there did not work well. Also the shower didn’t drain well because the pitch of the floor slanted the wrong way so you stood in water the whole time while showering. But other than that it was okay.”

“Great vibes and great views. Peaceful, art-filled space for a lovely weekend alone. Comfortable bed. I spent a lot of time on the screened in patio watching the lake. Quiet street, perfect for walking or biking.”

“Was the best place I've stayed at in Caroga Lake so far. For larger families, it's great with 3 bedrooms, and large bunks in 2 of them. It was awesome having a full and half bath! That's rare in that area. The downstairs was spacious, just a short walk to the dock, plenty of dishware, the fire pit was nice, the porch and hammock were great, it was quiet, and it's located by the local stores and gas station. No issues with water or septic at all, and home was very clean, and being able to wash...

“1890s Elegant mansion with great bones and almost completely restored. Pool would be big plus in summer and game room definitely a plus, though some equipment needed repair. Great location for our short family reunion of 6 adults and 3 tweens. Would worry about kids less than 10 or limited mobility folks as stairs quite tight or spirally and high. Does have first floor bedroom but a bit of distance to the single well appointed bath on that floor. Kitchen quite well equipped and even had a wide...

“Highly recommend, amazing location, so relaxing and wonderful”

“Very clean, private setting. Pet friendly. Enjoyed the pool and front porch! Beds were very comfortable, but the first-floor bed with the Jack and Jill ensuite was too high for seniors to climb into. I traveled with my 87-year-old mother and 94-year-old aunt; they had to use the upstairs bedroom with the lower queen mattress. Great place for a larger party.”

“The cabin is located in a very quiet area. We enjoyed our solitude surrounded by nature. The highlight was the bird and frog songs, especially at dusk. Sitting on the deck, we could hear 4 types of frogs (tree frog, green frog, bull frog and peeper) plus several birds. It was very enjoyable. The walk from the cabin along the road up north is beautiful. There were tons of bright orange salamanders at dusk. We also enjoyed hiking several trails nearby (in Ferris Lake Wilderness Area). The cabin is...

“House was great and very well stocked. Really enjoyed our time here. Host was extremely responsive. Beds were made when we arrived, bathrooms had towels and toilet paper (not always the case with rentals) which waa fantaatic!”

“My family had a great time here. We loved the beach and fishing from the dock.”

“Beautiful, clean house.”

“The cabin is exactly as advertised. We love the natural wood and adorable decor. The kitchen and laundry are well equipped and convenient. The bed and bath linens are good quality. It was everything we were looking forward to, and the relaxing flow of the Sacandaga River was exactly what we needed to unwind from work and other stress. We chose this location because we have family in Gloversville and Broadalbin, so it was convenient for them to visit us here. Everyone enjoyed relaxing on the...

“Great spot, Larry was very attentive. Food next door was delicious, really wish the Wi-Fi was more stable made calling and messages to our family difficult but outside of that 5 stars”

“Great location with a beautiful house. ”
