Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Plattsburgh, New York

Bass Tournament Hosts: Bass fishermen like the property because their equipment is kept private and safe. Bass boats can be attached to power and worked on under spot lights after dark if needed. One winning fisherman said that he liked the quiet so that he could concentrate better on his fishing gear and strategy.

Skiing: We are a 45 minute easy drive to Whiteface Mountain. Ski mountains in Vermont and Canada are about 2 hours away.

Cross-country skiing can be done near our property, on Lake Champlain when it is frozen, or at cross-country ski centers

in Lake Placid.

Hiking and Bicycling: People love to go to the different Adirondack High Peaks and then return to lakeside after the hikes.

Others bicycle all around the NY area near us, with many taking their bikes on the ferries to Vermont Islands or mainland

and returning via a different ferry later in the day.

Golf:

There are 4 nearby golf areas.

Other Activities:

Premier hiking, ice fishing, rock climbing

Nice Lake Champlain Cabin

Review Submitted: December 19, 2007 Date of Stay: August 2007
We had the nicest vacation to Lake Champlain and Heron Ledge Cottage. The property was clean and well-kept. The owners were right on hand to give directions, to answer questions and to meet our needs. The location is peaceful and the view of the sailboats on the lake can't be beat. The yard was perfect for our 1-year-old son who was just learning to walk! Be sure to note that there are three cabins and the owner's home on the property, so renting all 3 would be great for a family reunion or group vacation.

Peaceful Retreat

Review Submitted: April 22, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We greatly enjoyed our 2 night stay at Heron Lodge. The cottage exceeded our expectations. It was clean, charming and thoughtfully prepared. The kitchen was very well stocked with every necessity needed to prepare meals. The location was peaceful and beautiful. We enjoyed the gorgeous sunrises over Lake Champlain and the view of the mountains in Vermont. The owners were very friendly, yet respectful of our privacy. We only wish we could have stayed longer! We look forward to staying at Heron Lodge again and would highly recommend it.
