A Great Stay in Wells

5 of 5
Submitted: November 3, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
We had a great stay on Lake Algonquin! The house was clean, well equipped and perfect for the 6 of us (4 adults and 2 babies). Barbara and Jim went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable. The weekend was a great escape from our busy lives, as we enjoyed hiking, sitting by the camp fire and fishing on the dock. A great time was had by all and we are very excited to plan a trip back! A wonderful family vacation spot!
Owner's Response: Fall is such a great time to be in the Adirondacks. Beautiful foliage, cool crisp air...what's not to like? We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and found everything to your liking. So nice to meet you!

great stay in the Adirondacks

Dear Barbara and Jim, we had a great stay in your great house at the lake this summer.
We are a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 boys ( 12yrs and 10yrs old) and we are from the Netherlands. This was our first visit to the Adirondacks and we had great time.
The boys enjoyed the lake every day and at night the fire pit.
Barbara and Jim thanks for all the service and kindness you gave us and we definitely want to come back. Robert, Esther, Julian and Bjorn.
Owner's Response: Such a pleasure for us to welcome international travelers and to have you chose our home. An even greater pleasure was having the opportunity to meet you. You will be welcomed anytime you decide to visit us again. We loved seeing your boys canoeing around the lake each morning. We're very glad you had such an enjoyable stay.

HOME AWAY FROM HOME

We had a wonderful stay at the Longview Cottage. Unfortuneately, we never met the owners to personally thank them for the attention to every detail. The cottage was clean and the accomodations were great.

Both my husband and I enjoyed all the amenties available. We both love to cook and enjoyed our meals on the front glassed in porch while being entertained by the wildlife and (our favorite) the hummingbirds which were hysterical. In the evening we enjoyed the firepit and the beautiful stars, as well as the huge indulgience of roasted marshmellows.

During the day we hiked the many trails available in search of the beautiful waterfalls in the area. Having found 3 out of the 4 was fantastic. It was like going on a scavenger hunt everyday. Fishing was great for him, and reading on the beach was what a vacation is to me.

We did venture out one evening to a local restaurant called the Melody Inn, which we were lucky enough to be at for "Monday Lobster Night". The rest of the menu looked fantastic, but the lobster was fabulous; not to mention the view from the windows that overlooked some majestic mountains.

We have rented many cottages in the Adirondack region, but this is one we will return to. Thank you for all the comforts of home, but most importantly your attention to detail. We will be back.

John and Christina
Owner's Response: We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for letting us know. We hope that you do return and we will make a supreme effort to meet you on your return trip. We love meeting all our guests and are sorry that we missed you.

Our group as the distinction of being the first to reserve a week at Longview in 2005 (although not the first to arrive). And now we have completed our 6th summer vacation and 3 fall weekends. Does that tell you we are satisfied customers??? We love the comfort of the renovated cottage; the view from the screened-in porch; the quiet of the water; the excellent swimming and kayaking; and the time away to read, lounge, snooze, walk, swim, observe birds....and restore our spirits. This is a great getaway place when the hectic pace of your life demands that you come to a full stop.
Owner's Response: And thank you to our very favorite summer guests...besides the hummingbirds, of course!

My husband and I wanted a quiet place to relax in the Adirondacks. This was it! Nice house right on the quiet end of the lake. Every day we took the canoe or kayak out on the calm water and saw wildlife up close - 5 families of geese, family of loons, turtles and weasels. The house was well equipped - complete kitchen, gas grill, screened in porch, DVD player and dvds (never had to rent), fishing gear and even puzzles for the possible rainy day.
Central location for hiking. Check out the pamphlets on local hikes and waterfalls.
We would love to have a place like this of our own but since we can't we'll just come back here.
Owner's Response: We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and hope you can come back again sometime.
