The owners are really nice and they keep the cottages really clean. The big plus about these places is they are more up to date than all the "House Keeping" cottages that dot the area. These cottages are almost like having your own little home away from home and are great for families. Overall we where very very happy, and will be back!

We stayed over a weekend in late September, in cottage 2. I'm not an outdoors girl and I had low…read moreexpectations, given this is a cottage in the Adirondacks, but I was pleasantly surprised! I can't speak for all the cabins, but ours was updated and had the loveliest amenities, and it was spacious! All of the windows open and there is a screen door so you can let in the fresh air, but there is also an AC/heater so you will be comfortable. A full fridge, gas range, microwave, toaster, and coffee pot in the kitchen with every dish, utensil, or piece of cookware you could need. The toilet and shower are in the bathroom and just outside there's a little alcove with a huge countertop and sink and very large mirror. There's a large kitchen table with four chairs, two armchairs facing the television, and a roomy closet. It really is like a small apartment. (Actually, I had a small apartment and it didn't have nearly as much storage space.) Tons of drawers in the bathroom and bedroom area as well. Bed was a little uncomfortable, but everything was better than I expected so I wasn't upset about it. The proprietor is so nice!! Very helpful, full of recommendations. And the location is just in the center of town so it's close to any shopping or restaurants, and just a short drive or bike ride even from the water park, and only 15 min drive from Adirondack Woodcraft Camps (which is where my friends wedding was). You have to keep in mind this is similar to an Air BnB in that there's no housekeeping during your stay and you are responsible for tidying up after yourselves before you leave, washing your dishes, taking out your trash, etc. which wasn't so bad because hello, I'm not a pig. If you are, probably you shouldn't stay here anyway. But, highly recommend! I even mentioned to my boyfriend that I'd really like to stay again next summer and make a longer vacation out of it!

The well at the cottage was bone dry and we had very little to no water for our stay. We were forced to conserve water and to fill the toilet with buckets of water from the lake. We could not shower and were forced to use the public restroom in town on several occasions. Elise refunded a mere $200 for our inconvenience which was completely unacceptable. I was not trying to be greedy in any way. I believe that refunding half of our rental cost would have been fair. I have tried contacting Elise with no response. Completely unprofessional.

Once you have found the dock in Stillwater and embark on the Norridgewock River Cruise the fun begins. A 45 minute cruise of natural beauty and interesting information. I would suggest this is a perfect way for a family gathering to enjoy secluded Adirondack life. They currently charge $18 for adults and I think $10 for kids to cruise. The destination is a small boat dock where a mountain " limousine" awaits to bring you the last leg to the lodge. Once there you have a few hours to enjoy lunch and discover rustic camp life. A play area for kids, libation for adults and even a piano and guitar for anyone who would care to regale the other guests. Its all very chill and tranquil. You may find various accomodation if you care to spend the night,at very reasonable prices. The family who runs Norridgewock are intent on making your experience a good one and this is a most pleasant diversion in the woods!
