I can't say enough about how great our vacation at Lake Colby/Saranac Lake was for our family. The cabin was clean, cozy, the perfect size for a family of 4 and 1 dog, and right on the water. Even though there are cabins next to us, it felt like we were tucked in our nice little corner and private. The kids loved the little private "beach" we had, the firepit area with adirondack chairs was perfect to watch the sunset & have smores and read a book, the little yard in front of the lake was great for the kids to run around. The house was stocked with games as well which we enjoyed by the lake, and the canoe's and boats were in great condition and we took them out to fish every morning! Loved the view, the owners were super responsive & nice, and the house is exactly (even better!) as pictured.
In regards to the other reviews about the traffic, the cabin is actually on a road through the woods, and you aren't next to the street at all. I couldn't hear the cars from our particular cabin and thought it was very peaceful. No complaints here!
