Quiet and peaceful getaway
It was our family's last-minute decision to get away and with many places sold out at Lake George, our original destination, I came across A Tale of Two Beaches house near Lake Luzerne. I'm glad we have stayed away from the busier place and ended up in a very quiet community, minutes away from the lake. There was nothing fancy about the place but it had everything that you need. My family enjoyed nearby hiking, railbike trip, swimming in the lake, kayaking, and gathering by the fire pit in the evening. Diane, the host was very responsive and answered all the questions we had. We could not find iron on the day of the arrival and she brought it over soon after we contacted her. If you are looking for a quiet place to get away, I recommend the little town of Lake Luzerne and A Tale of Two Beaches home.

Great location and perfect for our needs.
We stayed 5 days and it was a great central location for day trips all over the Adirondacks. The property was nothing fancy but we weren’t looking for that since we planned to be out most of the days we were there. The beds were comfy and the house had everything we needed. The owner is excellent with communication and the property was well kept. We would highly recommend this property!

Peaceful stay
This property worked well for our family (2 adults, 3 teens and our 5yo) and dog. Short walk to the beaches. Clean lakes to swim and fish in. The neighborhood seemed very quiet and peaceful. Kayaking was fun, only issue was chaining them back up after we used them. Great communication with the property manager Diane! She answered all my questions very quickly via text. Overall had a lovely stay!
