Photos and Description of this Lake Algonquin - Wells holiday house - 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, 1 half bath. Sleeps 6-7, no pets

Visit Longview, our year round lake front home in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, located on quiet Lake Algonquin in the town of Wells. Enjoy crisp cool autumn days and star filled nights around the campfire. Summer fun includes, swimming, boating, hiking and Lake George is less than an hour away. Saratoga even closer. Autumn brings breathtaking colors and fabulous mountain views, hunting and hiking. The home is newly renovated (so no pets, please) with a new kitchen and bathrooms, new appliances, stainless pots and pans, new floors, lots of charm, and working fireplace (gas insert) in the living room. Step out onto the large screened-in porch facing the lake. Ski at nearby Oak Mt. or Gore Mt. which is 30 mins. away. Snowmobile trails nearby, also. Watch the deer on the lake at sundown during the winter. Rest and relax in the mountains with the lake outside your door surrounded by nature.

Another great week...

Cindy, Don and kids King Ferry
Review Submitted: September 20, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
A return trip to our home away from home. We spent a week with arguably one of the best weather weeks of the summer. Sunny days and starry nights. Another peaceful week in a cozy home on the lake side. Barb and Jim proved themselves to be wonderful hosts once again. It's a relaxing time with kayaks and toasted marshmellows that the adults and the kids all enjoy. If you don't mind the drive Lake Placid is worth the trip. The view from Whiteface can't be beat along with the gondola up to little Whiteface. But if you choose to just stay put the house makes that just as easy. The house is a place that keeps calling us back. A place that is worth the drive and worth the return again... Thanks again Barb and Jim...

Longview Cottage

John 789 New Jersey
Review Submitted: September 8, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Ahh, the perfect get-a-way. A serene retreat, the perfect, secluded location, and a fantastically charming house. Our week here was peaceful, easy, and exactly what we had wanted; and so much more! Barbara and Jim were great hosts, as well as sincerely amazing people. The cottage is a one of a kind place, with great views, cozy rooms, and a complete screened in porch, which is absolutely perfect for a restful day, or a night full of starry skies. Everything was perfect, I can't stress that enough, and our time there was one of the most enjoyable family vacations that we've ever had.

Great vacation at Longview

Review Submitted: August 25, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a fantastic time staying at "Longview" for a week in August! The house was very clean and the kitchen well stocked. The living room and porch are super cozy...and you can't beat a starry night outside by the fire. We will definitely be returning next summer. Can't wait!

Longview in Wells

Kathy and Rick Westfield, Mass
Review Submitted: August 5, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a wonderful vacation in this cozy cottage. The kitchen is well-equiped and we cooked some awesome meals while we were there. Wells is a quiet, restful town and we really had a chance to relax and just be lazy. The porch is a great place to read and watch the lake. The owners are great and very attentive to the property. If you take a trip to the Adirondacks - don't miss the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake. And if you are very adventurous- try a visit to The Seabisquit Inn!
