This is the first time we recided to rent a cottage in the Adirondack Mountain area and as we were driving in from Toronto, we were a little reticent about staying in a totally unknown vacation spot. We booked our stay at beautiful Brantingham Lake in the last week of June and had a lovely time. The cottage is well equipped with a well stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, linens and the staples (sugar, spices, garbage bags), so we didn't have to bring everything down. The screened-in porch has a beautiful view of the lake and there is a boathouse where we were able to park the canoe. This is a well loved place with lots of family history so we felt we were staying in a summer home. The owners are extremely helpful in providing info before you get there, as well as leaving local maps on site.
For a day trip, we drove to the Adirondack Museum on Blue Moutain Lake. It's a bit of a hike-2hours but the desination is beautiful with lots of interesting galleries and exhibits and a cafe. There are also a golfcourse minutes away from the cottage, as well as a store to get the newspaper, beer,and delicious local ice cream, as well as the bigger stores like Tops and Walmart just 20 minutes away in Lowville.
This is a great place for families, retired folks or anyone interested in stay in a quiet spot on Lake Brantingham!
