The quintessential lakeside cabin. Tradition meets today. Family, friends, pets!

The Buddy Shack is a newly-renovated lakeside retreat that provides stunning views and all of summer and fall’s pleasures. This seasonal cabin dates from the 1930s but offers all of the amenities you could ask for. It has two-bedrooms, an updated bath, a huge deck, a large dock and an outdoor fire pit. A great location that brings you everything upstate New York and the Adirondacks have to offer.

We are a pet friendly location. There will be a pet fee $85.00 per stay with a limit 2 pets. In lieu of a damage protection fee, we charge a one time non refundable fee of $45.00. This covers any damage to the property for any amount.
