⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful Family Cabin Getaway!
We had a great experience staying at this cozy cabin with our kids. The place was clean, comfortable, and surrounded by beautiful nature. We had so much fun together — hiking, playing games, and relaxing by the fire. It was the perfect spot for a peaceful family escape. We’d definitely come back again

I had the pleasure of staying here for the night, and it was a wonderful experience! Even though I booked very last minute, I felt completely welcomed. While I didn’t get the chance to meet Nicole in person, I had a great conversation with David, who was incredibly accommodating and down-to-earth. He made me feel right at home (away from home).
I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area!

Weekend Trip to Karley's Cabin
We loved our stay at this little cabin. It is well equipped and cozy. We enjoyed nice nights on the porch with the chiminea, cooked out on the grill and used the fire place for chilly mornings. The kitchen is well equipped and once you get used to the rain water for cleaning and spring water for drinking and cooking it’s pretty straightforward. The canoe availability with all the accessories to load it on your car to explore local lakes and ponds is an amazing amenity. The location is also great to explore the Adirondacks. From there we were able to canoe and fish, hike the Paul Smith’s VIC, have nice meals and swim in Saranac Lake, Zip-line in Lake Placid and, of course, sample the daily ice cream flavor at Donnelly’s. All this in just 3 days with the cabin’s great location. We would definitely stay here again when back in the Adirondacks region.

Weekend Trip to Karley's Cabin
My husband and I had a great experience at The Cabin (Karley’s Cabin). It was really clean, cozy and relaxing. The location was perfect for Paul Smith’s Reunion, the day trips, and hikes we took. The outhouse was not an issue, clean, well lit, and close to cabin. If you camp or boat the water situation is easy, and there was a lot of potable water to drink and rain water for everything else. We look forward to visiting again.

Lovely clean and comfortable cabin, 15 min from Saranac Lake and 30 min from Lake Placid. Gracious and communicative hosts. This is the second year in a row that we have stayed here and hope to return again next year.
One note: The fridge is a large dorm-size fridge w/a tiny freezer section, so if you have ice packs you want to refreeze or keep frozen, you might want to grab a bag of ice to put in a cooler when you are near the cab

The cabin was a nice experience, roomy, and had everything needed. The screened in porch was great, gave us some shelter from the critters and the firepit helped as well! Kitchen area is very usable, one hotplate was handy but if you plan to do significant cooking bring a stove. Fit 4 people between the full bed, the futon, and the included cot. Firewood and eggs were a nice touch!

3 nights at Karley's Cabin
What a lovely cabin in a beautiful place! The cabin is so cozy with a wood-burning fireplace, images of the area's flowers and animals, a beautiful sitting porch, and quintessential Adirondack-themed decor. The surrounding grounds have a lovely little garden and lots of native plants to look at like slipper orchids, conifers, and bunchberry. It was so fun to sit out on the porch, listening to the birds and watching the red squirrels go by. There is also a lake very close to the cabin - we would walk down there to watch the ducks and dip our toes in the water. Christopher was very communicative and gave clear instructions for everything! We would certainly stay here again and left with many good memories!

I absolutely loved camping on Luis’s land! The views were stunning, and the directions made everything easy to find. The cabin was charming, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Grilling in the outdoor kitchen was such a fun and memorable part of the experience. My siblings and I had a fantastic time—we couldn’t stop talking about how much we enjoyed it. I’d definitely recommend this spot to friends and family. Can’t wait to come back!

I loved staying at Chris’s cabin. I had a relaxing weekend and felt really at home in the cabin.
Everything was exactly how he described. It rained a lot during my stay, so I spent a lot of time being cozy in the cabin.
I was able to stay warm with the wood stove and the little kitchen had everything I needed to make meals. The dry cabin experience was really fun and easy! The outhouse didn’t smell and was well lit at night.
I did some outings to the Wild Center and to some shops in Saranac (including visits to the Loon center and a tuberculosis museum).
I’m excited to stay again when the weather is a little warmer so I can take the canoe out!
