Meet the Owner(s)

About Us: Camp Garondah was the third house on Garondah Road, built in 1975 by Paul Smith's College Professors, Don and Mary Collins. Family, friends and even students helped build the log house together. The main beam of the house was laid on June 10th, the day the current owner, Teradon Collins was born. Our family still loves to spend as much time as we can here with our two children and friends in all seasons.

Why we think you will enjoy staying in Rainbow Lake: Situated at the top of the lake, Camp Garondah offers solitude with easy access to fishing, swimming and the main lake. With a large percentage of state-owned shoreline, Rainbow Lake is wonderfully quiet and offers 25 miles of connected waterways, prime fishing and wildlife viewing.

Why our property is special: Staying in a house that was hand built by the original owners, and finished by the son will bring a sense of history to your stay. The structure is rustic yet modern and boasts a massive family basement game room for all ages to enjoy regardless of the weather.
