Creature comforts
Enjoy the comforts of home in nature — including real toilets, showers, and kitchen.
The perfect Adirondack getaway. This cabin is nestled in the forest only footsteps away from the shores of historic Big Moose Lake. Walking distance to the lake. There are two area restaurants and a tavern less than 2 miles from this cabin. Enjoy canoeing, kayaking, hiking, water-skiing, and swimming in the warmer months, or snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing in the winter.Big Moose is located in the Adirondack Park, the area is known for its abundant outdoor activities throughout the year. The best selling novel "An American Tragedy" is based on events that happened on the lake at the turn of the last century, which was also the adapted into the Oscar-winning film "A Place In The Sun", starring Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift. The area is the perfect location to relax, unwind and enjoy the natural beauty of this Upstate NY treasure, the original summer getaway for the rich and famous.
