Exclusive Adirondack Cabin on River, 24 Private Acres Ever wished you could find a cabin & river without neighbors in sight?Experience this completely private 24 acre property with a charming 1957 classic Adirondack cabin perched on an overlooking bluff that leads you down to the West Canada Creek and our island where, directly across, thousands of state land acres stand firmly untouched.Give yourself a new york minute to wait, watch & listen.and don't forget to look up, as most nights the stars are plentiful as you prepare a fire, inside & out!The spaceIt’s all about heading down to the river steps away for sun and exploration..or hanging back for some solo quiet time with a bird's eye view or playing bocce ball and grilling up a lean mean campfire BBQ!A little lux, a little rustic...just your little cabin in the woods:*Please note the running water is siphoned from a newly installed water well July 2021. Although the quality has been tested with good grades, for now, we prefer to only shower & wash dishes with the well water until it has time to “settle”...The hot water is set VERY HOT at 140 degrees (Be Careful!) We prefer to drink and cook from the provided (6)3gallon jugs of local natural spring water we fill from Smith Rd. This usually lasts 10-12 days for a couple, but should you need more drinking water, take advantage of an excursion to see the sights (directions on how/where to go on Smith Rd for the natural spring is in the clipboard of instructions)but you may want to just stay put, there’s plenty to absorb around the cabin..take short walks around the forest property’s 24 acres (cabin is situated directly in the middle.You may notice the natural openings as quasi trails..or make your own footpath)we also encourage you to explore around the river island! (yes, that mass of land across the river actually is an island..walk up or down river until you get to either tips of the island..you’ll see another natural world on the other side!We encourage you to bring river shoes!! (cheapie $10 river shoes can be found at Target, Walmart etc..) flip flops don’t cut it. haGuest Numbers:The cabin accommodates up to 2 adults in the cabin’s queen bedroom nook, (so if you have kids, under 12yrs old, it’s free & we can place a camping mattress w/bedding on the floor) If you have a larger group, you can pay extra & decide who's the more daring to stay under the stars in the Sibley Bell Tent with 2 floor full size mattress pads. For the tent, we charge an extra $150/night for up to 2 and $55/per person thereafter. This is based on the honor system. (we can tally up and request payment later via Venmo, Zelle or Paypal)Let us know and we can prep the bedding and appropriate # of mattress pads.Due to the capacity of the septic tank/toilet/shower, we would only be able to handle a total of 6 guests in all. (kids & adults)Firewood for both campfire & wood stove is provided: first bundle is on us! After that, we again ask to use the honor system and keep track of how many logs you use.HARDWOOD is ONLY for the tent & cabin's wood stoves & fireplace as it burns cleanly. It is found on the right side of the wood shed outside. ($2/per hardwood log...sorry, it's pricey up here)please use the available organic firestarters and you may also collect small branches as your kindling or use what’s been gathered on the screened porch.CAMPFIRE WOOD is ONLY for the outdoor campfire as pine sap can ruin chimney pipes. stacks are found underneath the outdoor iron food prep station near the campfire ($1/per 2 logs) OR bring in your own (but seems to be the same price on the road)feel free to gather outside as much kindling branches as you can for the campfire...you can take out the wheelbarrow to stock up!Trash & Recycling Rules are listed under policy house rules *please take the time to read this thoroughly :) as there are specifics on whether you're allowed to leave it for our pickup service on Monday mornings or depending on your rental end date, you might have to take it with you. We can advise you in our welcome email.RESPONSIBLITIES:don't forget...THIS IS the wilderness..ma nature will do what she may *We are not responsible and cannot provide a refund for any natural disturbances that can disrupt your stay or cause inconveniences. To better prepare, we have a clipboard hanging in the kitchen with all House Rules & Descriptions to have handy in case a storm takes out your phone/internet/electricity/plumbing etc..*We are not responsible for your use of the stairs leading down to the West Canada Creek and of course, swimming/wading is at your own risk..(but this is a gentle creek)*We are not responsible for any fallen branch or article, punctures or dings (to yourself or your car :)Other things to note..Yucky but have to reiterate:Absolutely no parties, meetings or visits by any other than Vrbo registered guests.
