The property was exactly as described and exceeded our expectations. Perfect location, beautiful lake access, very comfortable home, and Melissa the host was the most thoughtful/best communicator of any host from whom we have rented. Was perfect for our family and dog as we enjoyed winter on lake george. Can't wait to stay there again.

Perfect Lake George Getaway – Thoughtful Host and Ideal Home"
Staying at Melissa Vito’s house on Lake George was a fantastic experience! From the beginning, Melissa was incredibly forthcoming, providing detailed information about everything we’d need to arrive, settle in, and depart without any hassle. The layout of the house was ideal, with spacious, comfortable areas to relax and gather. It was also completely furnished with all the essentials—and more! Everything we could have needed was thoughtfully provided, making our stay easy and enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better home away from home and look forward to returning.

Heaven on earth...
This booking was by far the easiest and best choice I have made for a getaway. The owner Melissa communicates well and is available should you need anything. We did not because the home is perfectly appointed with everything you will need (I mean everything down to spare sugar/salt/pepper). Bring your family/friends/food/dog/kids and enjoy this private large gorgeous lake house. It is exactly what it should be to fit the Lake George themed cabin atmosphere. If you are expected modern and stucco maybe this is not for you. We loved the wood beams/walls/classic traditional dinning room table for everyone to share a meal from the clean newer three burner Weber grill right off of the porch. We enjoyed the playing billiards on the clean table with a lake view through the large glass window. My daughter played on the swing set and loved the private little "doll house" nestled in the woods right near the kitchen to keep an eye on the kids. The lake house / dock is oversized and two levels. Space to suntan, eat, fish, park your boat and not feel tight at all. The water is crystal clear and you have completely unobstructed views of the lake off the dock. The photo's we took look like a postcard. All I ask is you respect the property, lake and home so it can be as perfect as it was for our visit last week!!! We will be back 110%

Wonderful child- and pet-friendly lake house
This is a GEM at Lake George. Beautiful, private, and family friendly. We appreciated the ample living space, the bottom levels were perfect for a busy toddler to explore, and everything was easily child proofed with owner-provided baby gates and high storage spaces. We felt welcome and easily accommodated with both our child and our dog, and appreciated the owner’s communication throughout the process. The views from the boathouse and the deck above are spectacular. Highly recommend.

Quick Trip To Lake George
Our stay was wonderful! My 3 kids and I stayed 3 nights in October. Apart from playing mini golf for a few hours, we were at the house the entire time. Plenty for the kids to explore and enjoy! This home has all the feel of staying with family. Everything was clean, unique, and worked well. The lake is crystal clear, the boathouse had everything we needed. There was even a hiking trail across the street. Melissa was a fantastic host. She was sincerely considerate and very responsive. We’ll be back!

Beautiful lake location in a cute house
Melissa the host is a great communicator and wants to make sure your stay is wonderful. The house itself is cute, small well equipped kitchen opening to a dining/ living room area with a gas stove that was great to warm up on the cool autumn nights. The bedroom layout offered privacy and would be great if multiple families traveled. 3 were connected w on suite bathrooms, while 2 shared a hallway bath. 2 bedrooms while being private have the option of opening a door between them, 1 had 2 twins one was I believe a full or queen which is perfect if you're traveling with young children. The yard is private and there is a downhill walk to the lake. The boathouse with rooftop deck have the most beautiful lake views! We enjoyed having our coffee every morning on the deck! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, location was just 10 min from Bolton Landing and Lake George Village.. but removed from the crowds and peaceful.

Lovely stay despite the bad weather
Even though the weather was cold and rainy, my family enjoyed gathering in Melissa‘s cozy home. The easy access to the lake made it possible to do some fishing and boating in between the raindrops. Melissa was very communicative and responsive to any of our questions or needs. It was a lovely week.

Melissa is a wonderful host and a great communicator. Everything is organized and there are clear instructions for most things everywhere, which I really enjoyed. The multiple bathrooms are a plus - it was nice to not have to share (8 adults, 2 children). The property is beautiful and my ideal picture of a perfect, relaxing Adirondack getaway. I would like to stay here again sometime.

Vacation Retreat with a Breathe Taking View :)
This was not my first time in Lake George, But this was my first time renting a house rather than a hotel lodge. This was the best decision I made. Melissa, the owner was very sweet and professional from the moment the house was booked. Her Communication and personality made my experience even better. Thank you. The house is very special. It has a warm and welcoming feel from the start. 5 rooms, 4 bathrooms , great open concept first floor. We had a lot of room to be with the family or stay our distance. The backyard is my favorite point of the house. It has the best Breathe taking view of pilot knob. The wooden Dock has two floors. Top floor has wooden chairs and lounges to sit and enjoy the views with friends and family. The bottom deck provided access to kayaks and a tube to go into the lake. It’s hard to grasp my description in words. You have to go and experience this to see and feel how amazing this is. Overall this Lake house is Great place to be with nature. Relax indoor / outdoors. Travel around the town. Stay indoors and read a book, watch movies , cook and eat. It’s meant for anyone and everyone. The House was clean and has characters. There are hand written notes throughout house to inform us on what switches turns in what, direction on how to operate certain item :) this just shows that Melissa knows her house very well and can help you anytime. this was truly a great experience to my family and me. I would suggest this Lake House Rental to everyone!!!! loved it!!!

Perfect Location!
Stayed with my husband, daughter and our Golden Retriever for a last minute getaway May 11-14. This property is lakefront, fairly secluded and about a 5-10 minute drive to the shops, restaurants and The Sagamore at Bolton's Landing as well as hiking The Pinnacle. (There's also a hiking trail on the owner's additional property across the road.) The house and amenities are a bit on the older side, but fairly well maintained. Melissa, the host was very kind, accommodating and easy to work with. The boat house was key to our stay. We enjoyed evenings on the deck listening to the loons! Though the property isn't fenced, we were able to block our dog in on the dock and the upper deck. The fishing from the dock was spectacular and we were able to keep our fishing equipment in the boat house so it was ready to go at a moment's notice. This was a big deal for my husband. Not mentioned in the listing is that there are 2 kayaks and a row boat for use. We almost rented a different property that came with watercraft because we thought we were going to have to find some to rent here. Lake George Village is 4 miles from this property. Its far more crowded and basically a tourist trap than Bolton Landing. But if you're travelling with kids, there are arcades, restaurants, shopping and attractions there. We preferred to stay in the less crowded area - I can't say what it would be like in season though as this was our first time in the area. We had a fabulous time, would definitely recommend.

Easter get-away
The house set-up was perfect for our family as everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom, yet we were all together in the main room. The large dining room was spacious and we had plenty of room to eat and play games. Bringing our canine family members was a big plus for us and Melissa provided bowls and treats for them. The weather did not cooperate for our weekend get-away, but we didn't mind as we were able to spend time together comfortably.

Fantastic set up for groups!
We had the best time at the lake house in Diamond Point! The house is set up with 5 bedrooms and 4 baths. Ideal for our group. We had 9 adults and 2 dogs for a weekend of ice fishing for my boyfriends 40th birthday. We were all very comfortable, and spread out. The house was very clean and we enjoyed the woodsy feel to it. Kitchen looks small, but I was easily able to cook all meals all weekend, and with the help of the kitchen tools provided. Melissa is a wonderful host! She met us at check-in and showed us around and made sure we were 100% accommodated. Check-out made simple, too. Honestly, we were bummed leaving! Thank you, Melissa. 5 star stay!

Lake George in the winter
We really enjoyed our weekend at the Lake House on Lake George. The owner met us and walked us through the property. It was exactly as described - very roomy and it was nice that we all had our own bathrooms. It was below zero the whole weekend and we were toasty warm. Beautiful access to the lake with a private deck and dock which makes us want to come back in the warmer months. Great for a large family or a group of friends.
