You will have use of 4 miles of hiking trails and a private fire pit, picnic table for outdoor dining with a view and an awesome clothing optional private swimming spot on the river.
The cabin is 24 x 40 with two stories and a large screened porch facing the river. The screened porch has a rustic cedar log love seat that pulls out into a queen sized comfortable bed.
A full kitchen is complimented by a propane stove and fridge. Furnishings and decor are rustic Adirondack style. Simple and elegant! There is a Japanese soaking tub with hand shower in the bathroom. Enjoy a hot bath with the sounds of the rushing river and surrounding forest.
Hot and cold artisan well water feeds into the camp for cooking, bathing and drinking.
There is a propane stove/fireplace to warm the heart and hearth on a chilly evening.

A perfect social distancing retreat in a restorative setting.

You’ll have access to trails, swim hole, kayaks and a Finnish wood fired steam sauna which is a 10 minute walk from the cabin.

I enjoy my guests and interact with them as needed. I’m very committed to offering you as much privacy as you wish to have.
If you have children I love to share my blueberry bushes when its picking season. We are fully vaccinated but also committed to social distancing which is quite easy on our 160 acre mountain paradise!

We are in the north west corner of the Adirondack Park far from the maddening crowds in the high peaks areas! Only 20 minutes from Potsdam, 40 minutes from Tupper Lake or Saranac Lake. 30 minutes from Canton, 2.5 hrs from Syracuse and Montreal. 1 hour 15 minutes from Lake Placid.

You’ll need a car to get here. Once here you can drive to your cabin via a graveled woods road.

There are four cabins with a fire pit at each cabin site on our 160 acres. There is plenty of space to enjoy complete privacy around your cabin. You may run into other guests on the trails or at the swim hole. Text your host Sandy well in advance if you plan to use the sauna. She can start the fire for you approx 1 hour before you plan to use it.
There are plenty of grocery stores in Potsdam including The Potsdam Consumer Coop, Purple Rice an Asian Grocery plus an IGA, Price Chopper, local meat market and lots of farm stands!
Non members are welcome to shop at the coop. Open 7 days a week until 7 ( closes at 5 on Sundays)

Perfect private stay next to St Regis River
Wonderful private spot next to St Regis River. Very responsive host. There are 2 or 3 other rentals in the property, but it is so large that you get all the privacy. Hiking trails and canoes/kayaks in the property. Star Link Internet is fast and the cabin is just as it looks in the pictures: cozy, well thought, peaceful, private. Would 100 percent recommend and can't wait to go back!

Immediately Relaxed
Starting with the turn down the wooded driveway, a feeling of peace quickly descended upon us. From the constant white noise of the river, the beautiful scenery, and the comfortable, serene cabin, everything put me at ease. We took advantage of the amenities: the fire pit, the river tram/swimming hole, the sauna, and the amazing lookout. We're already lamenting having to leave so soon and plan to be back (maybe bringing our S.O.s this time!) in the future. Well worth the jaunt!
