Relish in endless lake days during your stay at 'White Pines Lake House,' a 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath Speculator vacation rental. Start your mornings with coffee by the water’s edge, then explore the depths of Kunjamuk Cave or chase the powder on Oak Mountain.

Great Place
We had a great week at White Pines. There was more than enough room for our large group and the accommodations were perfect. Glenn has made our annual family vacation memorable. We will be coming back.

Friend trip
We couldn't ask for a more perfect spot to get our friends together for a fun weekend away. There is everything you may need and more. We loved kayaking the most. We would definitely recommend staying and would love to stay again in the future.

Awesome house on a beautiful lake
We just returned from our week at White Pines. The owners were extremely flexible and accommodating. The house was immaculate and very roomy. The sandy beach and shallow water were perfect for our toddler and the rest of our multigenerational family group. We look forward to a return visit!

Great Family Time and Memories
We couldn't have stayed at a more warm and welcoming home for the weekend. The house was immaculate and had everything you will need for a comfortable stay. Loved the home, the back porch for morning coffee and great views of the the lake and the mountains. We would highly recommend staying here with family. It was perfect. We are looking forward to coming back again. Everyone had such a great time.

Great Family Time and Memories
We walked into a cozy, comfortable and warm home with plenty of room for some great family time and memories. The house was immaculate and had everything to accommodate a comfortable stay. The yard and the lake area were great for the grand kids to run, play, and swim. The back porch was cozy and a great place to sit with your morning coffee. All the comforts of home and then some. The scenery of the mountains behind the lake was awesome too. We all had a wonderful weekend and can't wait to go back.

Wonderful visit
My husband and I met our adult children and their partners for a lovely weekend in the Adirondacks for a wedding at Oak Mountain. The wedding took up much of the weekend, but we enjoyed all our time at White Pines. It was closely located to Oak Mountain and the brewery where people gathered the night before to visit. The home itself was very comfortable and had everything we could ever need. We enjoyed sitting around the outdoor fire and the gas fireplace inside to visit. We loved the view and coffee on the sunny porch. Our host was very accommodating and texted us to offer a later check out, which we really appreciated. We see this as a great place to meet in the future with kids in the Southern tier and New England and us on the St Lawrence River. Highly recommend!

Gorgeous House & Property in the Adirondacks
The house was beautifully decorated in the Adirondack style & with lots of interesting antiques. The house & kitchen were comfortable & well-equipped. The property was gorgeous between the lawn, beach, lake & mountain views. We made good use of the outside picnic benches. The beach was perfect for little ones, as it was quite shallow for a ways out. My older kids enjoyed swimming out to the ropes & paddling the mini paddle boards, as well as the kayaks, and our fishing boat we had brought with us. The house was actually very clean, but I gave 4 stars because a few of the dishes we pulled out were covered in some kind of dust that was difficult to get off. We had a large party staying there, so we often used all of the plates, bowls, etc. These were probably dishes from the bottom of the stack that were least used. We did also have some communication problems getting in touch with the owner at first because of the 3rd party booking company. They could not answer all of our questions. We were not given the owner's contact details until we had made a final payment, at which point, Glen was very responsive to any of our questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Outstanding!
This is a beautiful property on the western side of Lake Pleasant, which made for a stunning view of the sunrise. The yard is spacious and allowed us to freely play games, sunbathe, and run around. We especially appreciated the sandy bottom of the water at the private beach. Lots of dinner on the porch, lounging in the hammock, and s’mores by the fire. Just a few minutes down the road from the house was the center of Speculator with a grocery store, diner, and a few shops. Everything we needed for a relaxing and cozy stay! Although we spent a lot of time outside, the inside of the house was just as lovely. Clean and comfortable, it felt like a home away from home. Highly recommend taking the kayaks or canoe out on the water to see the mountain views!

Peace and Tranquility Awaits You
Wonderful vacation getaway!! Perfect for an extended family or group of adult couples too. Beautiful cozy lake home on a sprawling lawn with a magical lake view. The large front porch invited numerous cups of coffee and a few bottles of wine sharing time with family and friends. Fantastic beach area with a huge premiere sandy bottom swim area where the water stays shallow and drops gently quite a distance from the shoreline. Perfect for children!! We loved the outdoor fire-pit for evening S’mores making while we enjoyed the stars above in the clean mountain air. All the amenities a group could want or need are provided. So many things to do in the area. The kayaking was awesome. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be venturing back for more fun!!! The kids are already asking when we’re going again. We could tell it is a great place in all seasons. So relaxing and peaceful. Thank you for a fantastic visit!
