Peaceful Adirondack getaway at camp sassy

Hello, and Welcome to Camp Sassy! Feel free to use all our amenities in the kitchen. Our water comes from a Dug Well, but it is filtered and sanitized via a UV light from Culligan, and the water has been tested bacteria free and safe for consumption. Be that as it may, we still offer premium spring water in the water cooler that gets delivered from Culligan, feel free to drink that and use for cooking and coffee or tea!

There is WiFi, the password is hanging on the closet (closet is owners’ closet and remains locked) We have RING cameras on the lights outside the house, there are NO cameras or “listening devices” inside the camp.

We booked this last minute when we realized we wouldn’t have any kids for Memorial Day weekend and am so happy we did. Everything was exactly what we needed it to be. I can imagine the stairs to the loft might be an issue for some people but we didn’t have any problems with it. The terrain of the path to the shared dock was a bit rough especially if you have your hands full but pretty much what one should expect in the Adirondacks. We loved everything about this place and would definitely be booking again.

Great Long Weekend
Our family had a wonderful weekend at Camp Sassy. As soon as you walk in the door, it feels like you know where everything is. There's not much guess work, just like walking into your own home. Great space for our family of five. The kids enjoyed swimming and fishing on the dock almost everyday. Second time visiting Caroga and it didn't disappoint.

A true Adirondack Camp experience. Camp Sassy
Great furniture, kitchen, beds, fixtures, nice bathroom, great water pressure and heat for in tub shower. Excellent new 5 burner grill. Super outdoor fireplace & hardware to go with it. Adirondack chairs were perfect and picnic table for 6+ was sturdy. Great feature for outdoor extension of living space is a screen house with solid roof and new screens 144 sq. Ft. Security is good and well lighted front of cabin. TV’s and streaming programs were nice.

Nice Camp
We had a very good stay at Camp Sassy for two weeks in August. While the weather could have been better (rain, rain, rain), we enjoyed our stay. We had a couple of issues with the plumbing in the camp, but the owner was very quick to respond and arranged for a plumber to get them fixed. We appreciated his response. We rented a pontoon boat from the Caroga Lake Marina, and the marina was kind enough to let our grandson dock his jet ski at the marina for two weeks, as a "Camp Sassy discount". Our only complaint is that the waterfront is difficult to get to, as the "trail" is on a hill and was washed out by recent rains. Plus there was a pontoon boat docked there that never moved for the entire two weeks, and we had no place to dock our rental pontoon. Thankfully the Caroga Lake Marina let us keep the boat at one of their slips, which is only a couple miles away. All-in-all we enjoyed our stay.

Very pleased with overall stay. Having linens & towels provided were a big help. Ample fire wood is also provided. An item to take note of, the stairs to the sleeping area are quite steep & the bathroom is on the first floor. If you have mobility difficulties or small children this could be problematic.

Had a really nice family trip!
Had a great time. The cabin is very clean and smelled amazing throughout. There’s no yard really and the grill could be replaced. We were excited to grill out but this one was old and rusty. The cabin was overall great and we loved the dock within close proximity. The culligan water was very much used by us. The tvs with different streaming apps was nice for our toddler.

Perfect Adirondack Weekend
Camp Sassy was perfect for our family of 5 (2 teens and an 11-year-old). Inside was more spacious than we were expecting, and the outdoor area is cute and relaxing. We loved the enclosed gazebo! The hosts thought of every detail; tools to make s'mores by the fire, different seating areas, streaming on 2 tv's, full kitchen with everything we needed, firewood, and especially a delicious bottle of Adirondack Winery wine. The cabin was clean, cozy and tastefully decorated with a true Adirondack feel. Hosts were quick to respond to questions. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Cozy lake cabin
Nice cabin within walking distance of lake access. Nicely decorated with Adirondack theme. Easement to lake needs a Camp Sassy sign. Upstairs needs a gate to close at top for safety, especially during the night- no matter what age you are. Kitchen towels and more hand towels are nice too. Overall, very comfortable though for 87 to 9. Thank you

Adorable cabin by the lake
This cabin was very cute and the photos were accurate. Nestled in a little lake community, it was peaceful and convenient to nearby hiking and Caroga Lake. Although not directly on the lake, there were lovely views of the lake within a very short walk. This cabin is perfect for a couple or a family. The cabin was clean, decorated nicely and has everything we needed.
