    We offer plenty of private parking for vehicles, boats and their trailers, cable television, wifi, campfire pit, and charcoal grill. Swim area with floating dock, 20' long deep water boat dock, and sandy beach are available for no additional charge between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

    Enjoy fishing, swimming, boating and picnicking on beautiful Loon Lake or the many other Adirondack Lakes nearby. Visit Lake George's famous attractions just a short 25 minute drive away. Spend time at neighboring fun spots including Frontier Town, Schroon Lake, Natural Stone Bridge and Caves, Scenic Gore Mountain -- gondola rides, and Ausable Chasm! Horseback riding and golfing are also available nearby!

    All well behaved pets are welcome at Birchwood! Small pet fee is extra. We do ask that they remain leashed at all times while on our property. Please pick up after your pets indoors and outdoors. We prefer that they remain downstairs if staying in the Lodge and off the beds/furniture in all units (as to help keep allergens to a minimum).
    Due to NYS Department of Health regulations, dogs are not allowed at the beach, in the designated swim area. We do however, have plenty of lakefront shoreline for dogs to enjoy, docks to jump from and some shallow exit areas as well. If you are using Birchwood as a base for a day trip, we ask that you take your pet with you. If that's not possible, we'd be more than happy to recommend a local "pet day care". Leaving your pet behind without supervision is not permitted. We don't want them to be frightened or rowdy while you're away -- after all they should enjoy vacation as well.
    Additional cottages available on property for the extended family that wants their own space at additional cost. Rec Room is open to all Birchwood guests.

    You must provide email address for forwarding of lock box access code, beach waiver, etc. Off VRBO communication is automated and limited. Every reservation requires acknowledgement of receiving and reviewing the Property Rules and Terms of Service.

Can’t wait to go back!

We had a great week at Birchwood Cottages!! The cottage itself was clean and tidy. We enjoyed the kayaks, SUP boards, beach toys, etc that they have available for everyone to use. We were there during a major storm, and lost power. We immediately were checked on and assured that the generator was on so we would at least have water. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. My youngest is already asking for us to book for next summer.

Not recommended

Very disappointing experience at this cottage. The AC didn’t work. The rooms got so hot & stuffy, we had 2 sleepless nights. The wi-fi was extremely weak. Basic things like hand wash soap, dishwashing liquid, kitchen towels, which are usually provided in most vacation homes were not provided. We had to rush to the store to get them the night we arrived. We had initially booked our stay for 2 nights, and later extended it by 1 more day. The owner, Patrick had agreed to that. However, he had never mentioned when the extra payment was due, and as such we assumed we would settle all dues while checking out. On the third day, when we were out, he called and started yelling about the money and demanded we need to pack and leave immediately! We cancelled all our plans for the day, left the place but paid anyway for the third night before leaving. Overall, our experience was very poor and we wouldn’t recommend this vacation home to others.

Birchwood Cottages Weekend Stay

The property is a part of a group of cottages, this particular cottage has wonderful lake views and is less than a one minute walk to the beach across the street. There are very few public beaches at this lake so having a private beach for these properties is very nice. The cottage was small but a perfect size for the group of four we had. There are many outdoor amenities they offer such as firewood for a fire pit right outside the cottage, kayaks, floats and beach chairs. We did not like how you had to provide your own sheets and towels, this is very uncommon for a home rental. We also found an open tupperware container in the refrigerator with food still in it among other food left in the refrigerator and freezer which led us to believe the cottage wasn't cleaned very well. Since we had to pay a cleaning fee prior to our stay, we did not really appreciate having to provide our own sheets and towels and having food left from someone else. There was also a disconnection between the property management company and the VRBO website. I was made to sign a contract without being told until after I had already paid for the visit. There were also multiple discrepancies about details on the website and contract, which made me nervous to sign the contract.
