Riverside Lodge offers visitors a relaxing, private yet accessible vacation locale. The style is "Adirondack-camp" and we have gone to great extents to bring the natural beauty and warm feeling of the region into our home. Our guests have complimented our décor and appreciate the "upscale" nature of the decoration. If you are looking for comfort and privacy with all of the amenities of a home, Riverside Lodge will make a charming and memorable retreat for you, your family and friends.
The master bedroom/bath combination has a Queen size antique brass and metal bed, sitting area and TV with cable, DVD. It has a large window overlooking the lake. A late night glance at the lake will capture your attention when the moon reflects beautifully over the water. Early risers will appreciate the mist that rises from the lake that appears as smooth as glass except for an occasional pair of loons that appear to rise early as well.
The "cottage bedroom" has a queen-size bed and is decorated with natural wood walls, and a small birch tree to bring the feeling of the outside to the inside. This bedroom also has a large window facing the lake.
Our "3rd upstairs bedroom is decorated in rustic woods, moose motif and features one queen bed.
A full size bathroom with a shower and bathtub is available to the bedrooms on this floor as well.
Our main floor of the lodge features a Brand new country gourmet kitchen with eat-in area, access to upper deck area and barbecue grill. Through beautifully appointed yellow-birch columns you view the lake and high peaks from the kitchen and enter into a formal dining room with pocket doors, for privacy, seating for 10, overlooking the upper decks and lake chain entrance.
The dining area opens onto the living room area with comfortable furnishings just perfect for relaxing after a full day of outdoor activities. The room has Adirondack accents and accessories. It is bright and sunny and has awesome views of our private lakefront. A fireplace with an extraordinary wood mantle and wooden natural beamed ceiling highlight the richly appointed room.
