This was our fourth year renting John’s house for a week in August and, once again, we had a wonderful time! We have made it a yearly tradition to come to Sacandaga (a group of adults and a couple young kids) and this house is perfect for our group: it’s spacious and and has everything we need for our stay and the lake is beyond amazing. This is a wonderful rental for anyone who is looking for a true Lake Sacandaga experience. The house is situated in a quiet (but large) cove area on the south side of the lake which is really great for swimming and lake activities, especially when the weekend comes and the lake gets a bit busier with boats. And the sunset views over the mountains are AMAZING!
Every year we come there are new improvements to the house and/or property that makes it even better—like the new full bathroom in the basement that made our mornings that much more efficient, and the larger dining table in the eat-in kitchen that can fit all of us around it! Like some other reviews have mentioned, you do need to come prepared with groceries for the week but we usually do a large shopping stop at the Hannaford in Saratoga on our way in at the beginning of the week (you can order online and have it ready for pick up—super convenient!) and then there are a few great places just over the bridge in Northville (10-20 min from the house) to get anything else we need during our stay. We’ve rented a couple other homes on the lake over the years and John’s house is by far the best! John is a perfect host and always immediately available via phone or text if anything comes up during our stay. Thanks, John—we are already looking forward to coming back again next year!
