Large, Historic Adirondack Vacation House with in ground pool and wifi

Good big house for family get togethers and for families with kids, lot of running room for the kids. We rented the house for the Columbus day weekend to see the fall colors in the area, and the trip turned out to be excellent. There were four families with a total of 6 kids in all; we were a bit apprehensive at first, but the large living and family room helped spread out the noise from the six kids. The house looks and feels old, musty smell in some rooms, but satisfactory in all, and in sync with the character of the Adirondack houses. The paintings hanging around in the rooms are a bit creepy, but we suppose that is modern / abstract art. Some rooms are oddly shaped but there are enough beds to sleep a family of five. The house is well maintained with lots of hot water, cooking utensils, dishes, pots and pans. The location of the house is so that it is a bit north of Lake George (about 30 minutes) and about 60 minutes from Lake Placid. Good location to go to either area, or both. And if you feel like just hanging around, there is a swimming pool on the property (it was too cold for us to use) and a TV in the living room with Dish. The grocery store, gas station and RiteAid was walking distance, which is always useful. All in all, we had a great time and would defintely stay here if we were to visit the area in the future.

How fortunate to find this Historic home on my and my friends travel route!
Elizabeth's was clean and well equipped, and it was a joy to leave the car behind, and just walk to the stores and restaurants. The kitchen was very well equiiped to make a meal, for which we were very grateful. The pool was a real plus during this HOT period. It's like a private little "garden space" to relax in. The flowers and plants provided a nice relaxing touch. My group and I were impressed by the ease of Internet access, and the fact that the signal was avaiable at the pool. Air conditioners in the bedrooms were a plus. Would like to know more about the artist who created the many beautiful paintings gracing the house! No question, we will be back in the next week or two. Elizabeth's has a sweet personality, and in a town center like Chestertown, it's a great place to land.
