Wonderful Secluded Lake Getaway
We used this location to gather with some friends from all over. The photos on the listing do not do justice to how beautiful and secluded this space is. The lake had very little traffic on it. We had great success fishing, and lots of fun tooling around in the pontoon boat. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful. 100% would book a stay here again. I cannot say enough about how wonderful our time was here.

Beautiful cottage, clean, excellent view. We used the boat every day. It was gassed up and worked fine. There is a wood pile for camp fires. Muliple kyaks, canoes, and a stand up paddleboard. I saw loons on the lake (first time for me) and we heard owls at night. The fridge was clean and empty when we arrived...so you do need to bring any condiments, etc you might need. They do have salt & pepper. They have a kerig and a regular drip coffee pot. Highly recommend staying here...we hope to come back.

Beautiful place deep in nature
We had a great time in this cabin. We enjoyed the boat and kayaks. It was so peaceful and pretty. The beds are comfortable and the house has everything one typically needs. The locals are kind and helpful. Note that stores are far away (25 minutes) so pack thoughtfully and make a grocery list when you go shopping.

Sibling Vacation
We loved our stay at Oak Hill! The cottage was beautiful and the property was more than we could ever ask for. We fished, played games on the dock and took evening rides around the lake on the pontoon boat. We hope to come back for a repeat next year!

Great place!
We loved it! It was like pictured and maybe the cleanest house I've ever rented. It was secluded and so peaceful. It was rustic yet had everything you needed. My only critique is that my husband is 6'4 and he had some trouble in the bedrooms near the beds and standing downstairs (except the kitchen). So, just a heads up for the tall folks, you may want to consider this!

Paradise in the Adirondacks
We absolutely loved our stay at Oak Hill! It’s Just North of the Adirondack park and is a peaceful and cozy cabin on a private sandy cove. We used the pontoon boat and kayaks to explore the lake with its hidden sandy bays! Our host Sarah was attentive to any need we had! We did not want to leave! We will be back again for sure!

Beautiful setting, great house
Love the dock, beach, pontoon boat, kayaks, and open floor plan. The setting is unusually good. Sarah was very responsive. Just two things to be aware of: if you are tall (say 6'2" or taller) you will be ducking a lot. And there are no real nearby grocery stores. But in our case it was definitely worth it.

Overall, one of our favorite places to have visited in ADK!
Everything was wonderful!!! Clean, comfortable, well equipped...having a pontoon boat was great! Enough room for all of us and the boxer! Nice sized kitchen area and plenty of relaxing space to unwind. The boat house with the Fooseball table was a lot of fun and having lots of firewood provided was definitely a huge plus! Only concern - VERY low ceilings in the main house... my husband is 6'4" - had to walk a bit stooped all week and be extra cautious up/down the stairs to the sleeping areas. We would definitely think of going back!!!

Perfection
This property had it all. Waterfront cottage with a walk in beach canoes, kayaks, pontoon boat and a wonderful dock to soak up the sun. Inside, you'll find a fully stocked kitchen (we love to cook and were so relieved and impressed with how well the cottage was outfitted for us to make our home cooked vacation meals) and even included a beer fridge near the door and small liquor cabinet to keep the clutter to a minimum. The open concept main floor of the cottage is perfect for rainy days, where you can spend time with family inside and not feel crowded. The dock house was magical, fooseball table and board games galore! Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better host or property. Thank you for putting so much though and effort into this property and we will definitely be back!

lovely lake front property
My husband and I enjoyed this lovely lake front property with our two dogs. I was able to attend an online work conference in the mornings using the high speed internet, and then explore the lake on the pontoon boat in the afternoons. The little boat house on the dock is a lovely place to sit and read in the early mornings, and the little cove neighborhood was a good place to walk our dogs. Sarah the owner was very responsive to our questions, and helped make our stay comfortable. Would highly recommend for a couple or family.

An oasis of peace, beauty and the outdoors
We loved this property! The home is a beautiful lakeside setting that blends readily with panoramic water views and an open welcoming layout. I would drive the 6 hours plus again - that's how amazing the swimming, boating, and vacation feel of this home is! Our entire experience was clearly family-run with every attention to detail and incredible, immediate responses to any questions we had in preparation for our stay. We hope you get a chance to experience this gem!

We loved Oak Hill Cabin!
Oak Hill cabin was truly lovely! It was super clean amd the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans for all our cooking needs. The breeze from trout lake through the many cabin windows was amazing . We enjoyed swimming in the lake and also used the kayaks to explore the lake . Using the pontoon boat was a delight ! We enjoyed the game room on the lake front. The four of us loved sitting out on the dock in the sunshine taking in the lake views . A perfect weekend away. About a 25 minute drive to St. Lawrence University. Our host family was easy to communicate with and very helpful.

Guys weekend away
This was the perfect spot for a weekend away with the guys. We have a few beers by the fire. Fished from the dock, then took the boat out to see the lake and try some fishing on the lake. This property is great for friends, family or just to get away with your loved one. The inside of the house it great and full kitchen to cook all your meals. I would do this again in a heartbeat. Thanks for a great stay.

Family Memories
Our vacation at Oak Hill was one that our family will remember for a long time to come. The cottage is in a perfect, private setting for enjoying swimming, boating, fishing and glorious sunsets. The kids were able to play and swim freely in the shallow beachfront, while the the adults caught up on reading, sunning, and enjoying the games in the sunroom. We will definitely be making more happy family memories there next year.
