Fully furnished with spectacular views of Loon Lake from all areas of the house, with an all glass front. Come to relax by the fire or participate in many local outdoor activities. 3,600 square feet of wonderful modern living space for your next family vacation or reunion! The Lodge includes a gourmet kitchen with connected dining area for large feast gatherings; four bedrooms plus wonderful loft off the master bedroom, 3 full bathrooms, dishwasher, washer & dryer, radiant floor heating.

Upstairs bedroom 2: 1 queen

We offer plenty of private parking for vehicles, boats and their trailers, cable television, WiFi, campfire pit, propane fireplace and propane grill. Swim area with floating dock, boat dock for up to 25ft boats, and sandy beach are available for no additional charge between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Enjoy fishing, swimming, boating and picnicking on beautiful Loon Lake or the many other Adirondack Lakes nearby. Visit Lake George's famous attractions just a short 25 minute drive away. Spend time at neighboring fun spots including Frontier Town, Schroon Lake, Natural Stone Bridge and Caves, Scenic Gore Mountain -- gondola rides, and Ausable Chasm! Horseback riding and golfing are also available nearby!

All well behaved pets are welcome at Birchwood! Small pet fee is extra. We do ask that they remain leashed at all times while on our property. Please pick up after your pets indoors and outdoors. We prefer that they remain downstairs if staying in the Lodge and off the beds/furniture in all units (as to help keep allergens to a minimum).
Due to NYS Department of Health regulations, dogs are not allowed at the beach, in the designated swim area. We do however, have plenty of lakefront shoreline for dogs to enjoy, docks to jump from and some shallow exit areas as well. If you are using Birchwood as a base for a day trip, we ask that you take your pet with you. If that's not possible, we'd be more than happy to recommend a local "pet day care". Leaving your pet behind without supervision is not permitted. We don't want them to be frightened or rowdy while you're away -- after all they should enjoy vacation as well.

Additional cottages available on property for the extended family that wants their own space at additional cost. Rec Room is open to all Birchwood guests.

You must provide email address for forwarding of lock box access code, beach waiver, etc. Off VRBO communication is automated and limited. Every reservation requires acknowledgement of receiving and reviewing the Property Rules and Terms of Service.

Amazing view
We stayed for a winter holiday weekend and were charmed by the view of the frozen-over Loon Lake with its ice fishers and snow mobiles. The house is great! Might want to get the lighting a bit more finessed- superbright, cold lights here and there, in and outside, mess with the Cozy winter night vibes.

Wonderful White Christmas
We had a great Christmas break with our family. The lodge has everything you need and it's close to Gore mountain, if you want to ski. Patrick was extremely responsive to all our questions. Great view over the frozen lake where people were ice fishing.Definitely recommend this place for a nice vacation.

Comfortable House
The house is large and comfortable with good light. The view of Loon lake is relaxing. My only negative thought would be the location of house next to route 9. The road noise is quite loud especially the logging trucks, that seem to run 24/7.

Best Place for Friends and Family Gatherings! :)
I have so many good things to say about this place. It's very spacious, very clean, and it's pet friendly. This is not the first time I booked this place for my birthday weekend :) and always had a great time staying. Plus it's very close to Gore Mountain Ski Resort where we always go snowboarding. The only problem that I have is the hot shower :( we stayed for 2 nights and the next day hot shower is not working, it was too cold to take a shower during winter lol, but other than that this place is AMAZING. This is my 2nd year coming back and we did have a great time! Thank you Patrick! :)

Lovely lodge overviewing Loon Lake. Peaceful location to have our family together for Thanksgiving.
Our hosts were very hospitable and accomdating. We had one small issue with the internet that was remedied very quickly. They dressed up the house with lights and a tree which made the whole event so much more special. We all appreciated the opportunity to gather in the lodge and use the game room too!

Property was awesome - had plenty of room and everything necessary. Only real drawback was the busy road you had to cross to get to beach, but once there - Awesome! We did have an elderly family member and would recommend a hand rail off the front porch because it is pretty bid step to the ground

OVERALL IT’S THE BEST PLACE TO STAY!!!!!
I have so many good things to say about this place. And let me start by telling you that if you’re looking for a huge place with a perfect view, like beautiful sunrise/sunset you should get this place. Me, my family and my friends stayed here for a weekend and we are so amazed by how huge and beautiful this cabin is. It’s so clean and peaceful. And the owner is so friendly! Anything we need during our stay, they are just one msg away. So convenient!! We celebrated my birthday and went to gore mountain to ski the next day. It is 20mins away from the Ski resort. And everything there is convenient! Close to liquor stores, wallgreens and anything you need! If only I could give it 10 stars I would! 🤩🤩🤩 THANK YOU SO MUCH TO MARGO & PATRICK FOR LETTING US STAY HERE DURING MY BIRTHDAY WEEKEND!😍 We would love to be back here this coming summer to enjoy the lake nextime! Love love love it!!!❤️❤️❤️
