Blackfly RV Site
Great place to stay!
Michael's camping spot was pristine. He has it set up well with fire pit, and electricity. Even had a great spot for our screen tent. He greeted us on arrival and he explained everything we needed for a great stay. We told him about our plans for visiting the area and he was very helpful with information. I was impressed with the volume of firewood for the money.

Blackfly RV Site
Michael was very understanding and sweet. I got the dates wrong and he graciously accommodated me anyway. The site is almost level on a nice solid rock foundation. I hooked up to 30 amp that was right there. Nice fire pit.

Blackfly Cabin
Michael was an awesome host! He was friendly and willing to answer questions. His property is beautiful and easy to get to. Blackfly Cabin felt like a home-away-from-home! It had everything you could think of. It was very comfortable, cozy, and clean. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!

Gateway to the Adirondacks
We had a great time on Michael’s land! It’s the perfect spot to discover the Lake Placid/Saranac Lake Region in the Adirondacks. The campsite has electricity, a fire ring, picnic table and you can fill up with water. So everything you need for some a relaxed stay. We worked definitely camp there again!

Pristine RV Site
Black fly is immaculate, Michael and his family take such good care of the property. The location is very good as well. 10-15 minute drive to Lake Saranac and less than 30 to Lake Placid.

Blackfly Cabin
Amazing Mt. Bike Base Camp
My stay at Blackfly Cabin was an amazing experience! Mike was a wonderful host and the cabin was a perfect retreat, exactly what I was looking for. I came to the area to Mt. Bike and spent three nights at Blackfly. Mike built the cabin himself and created a lovely spot that’s an easy drive to Wilmington, Saranac Lake, and Lake Placid. It was my first time in the area and as a rider himself, Mike’s local knowledge of the area was an added bonus! When I returned from my first day of amazing, muddy riding, Mike had set up his bike stand and left me a roll of shop towels and a wire brush so I could clean up and lube the drive train for the next day. That’s just the kind of guy he is! Private but with all the comforts of home! I would recommend a stay at Blackfly in a heartbeat!
