Lakefront Adirondack Cabin • Dock + Canoe • 10 min to Lake Placid

Welcome to Hemlock House on Lake Flower!

Located right on the shores of Lake Flower in Saranac Lake, NY, Hemlock House is the perfect retreat for your Adirondack getaway. Step outside to complimentary seasonal boats, a private dock, fire pit, and lakefront just steps from your door. Walk into town for cafés, shops, and the farmers market, or take a short drive to Lake Placid, Whiteface Mountain, Keene, and the High Peaks. Guests also enjoy a private deck with grills and seating, plus direct lakefront access.

Note: the lakefront sits across from Route 86, so sound carries over the water. Light traffic and boat noise are common, but many guests feel it’s a small trade-off for the convenience of this walkable location.

Discover Saranac Lake

A hidden gem of the Adirondacks, Saranac Lake is full of fresh air, mountain views, and that slow-down-and-breathe energy we all crave. Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend, family escape, or solo recharge, the area offers something for everyone.

Four seasons of adventure
Paddle crystal-clear waters in summer
Hike or bike through vibrant fall foliage
Ski, snowshoe, or relax fireside in winter
Enjoy farmers markets, live music & festivals in spring

Local charm + hidden gems
Stroll downtown to explore art galleries, indie shops, and historic “Cure Cottages.” Sip craft coffee or cocktails at cozy spots only found here.

Easy planning
Want to know what’s happening while you’re here—events, trails, or restaurants? Just search “Saranac Lake” for local guides and up-to-date info.

Hemlock House combines the best of both worlds: peaceful lakefront living, complimentary boats, and walkable access to the heart of Saranac Lake.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with supplies and utensils that made the stay easier. The location was perfect for a 15-20 minute walk to restaurants and shops. It was also a short drive to by trials to walk and hike. We enjoyed our stay!
