If you've been looking for a quintessential upscale Adirondack vacation do yourself, your family and friends a huge favor and give them the experience of "Red Paddle Cove"! Conveniently located on the south shore of Third Lake(the quiet side) on the Fulton Chain of Lakes. It's an easy 10 minute drive to the villages of Old Forge in one direction and Inlet the other, where you'll discover fabulous restaurants, shops, galleries, waterpark, marinas & more.
As soon as you turn off the main road … you'll feel the difference. Roll down your windows to take in the scent of pine balsam from the surrounding woods as you meander down the 3/4 mile road to beautiful Red Paddle Cove. As you approach the camp you'll notice the Little Cabin(included in the rental) followed by the Main Camp and be satisfied that you've made the right choice, this place is heavenly! Any cares you may have will be tossed aside. You'll get out of your car, leave the unpacking for later and head right for the lake because THAT's where you want to be...the views from this place are spectacular! Nestled in a wooded cove, straight across the lake you'll behold Bald Mountain, look closely to see if you can spot the fire tower on top(we highly recommend hiking it).
As reluctant as you may be to to leave the water's edge, the interior will not disappoint. Impeccably maintained and updated and now featuring central air conditioning, the main camp has an open floor plan centered around the Great Room with a magnificent floor to ceiling stone fireplace with log accents & custom forged screen. A huge wall of windows face the lake to bring the outdoors in. Take in the cathedral ceilings, skylights, ceiling fans and huge antler chandelier. Relax on the sumptuous leather furniture (sofa has 2 built-in recliners), one of the comfortable rocking chairs or the antique Old Hickory chair. Rustic Adirondack accents abound. Two sets of sliding glass doors, one leading directly to lake and the other to the spacious Azek deck and cast aluminum patio dining furniture as well as a glider loveseat, 2 other chairs & side tables. Check out the intricate log railing on the deck with diamond shaped designs.
Also in the Great Room area is a dining table to comfortably seat 10 (plus there's seating for 2 at the nearby counter). Table is made from reclaimed barn wood and matching buffet with all the cocktail & wine glasses you would expect.
The custom Kitchen boasts knotty maple cabinetry, natural stone tile & backsplash, granite countertops with seating for 2, large basin copper sink & faucet, under cabinet lighting, recessed lighting, large pantry cupboard, dishwasher, microwave, electric smooth- top stove, bread drawer, blender, salad spinner, immersion blender...in other words it's well stocked. in addition to standard coffee maker there's even a Nespresso espresso maker(order online & they'll deliver right to the camp) .
1st floor Primary bedroom suite offers a Queen hickory bed & log nightstands and simply one of the best views of the morning mist! A private knotty pine bath with pocket door, double hickory vanity with birch bark inlay, brushed nickel faucets, granite countertop, gorgeous glass enclosed tiled shower w/ 2 heads (rain head and handheld). Large knotty pine walk in closet, dresser, TV & sliding door to deck.
The other first floor bedroom is located off the Great Room with a substantial Queen size reclaimed barn wood bed, dresser & nightstands and a double closet. A remodeled full bath is also off the Great Room with reclaimed barn wood vanity w/ dual sinks & antique bronze bridge style faucets & shower/tub combo, knotty pine walls and ceiling and beautiful antler light fixture.
Overlooking the Great Room is a loft with two custom made hickory bunks (each the length of twin beds but not wide) w/drawers underneath and each one with its own wall lamp. Bunks are separated by a deep bookcase, game cabinet below and there's a matching cabinet with birch bark inlay & flat screen TV. The awning windows allow the breeze in, ceiling fan with diamond hickory border & birch bark inlay and stunning log & twig railing. There is also a remarkably quiet whole house fan with remote control if it's not quite hot enough to turn on the A/C.
Down the hall are 3 additional well appointed bedrooms (1 Queen, 2 Full) and an updated bath with knotty pine walls & ceilings, single hickory vanity, oil rubbed bronze bridge faucet, built-in shelves, knotty pine bench w/ storage for towels & hooks above, beautiful tile shower with rain shower head plus hand held.
A large enclosed knotty pine three-season porch with skylights, wood floor, hickory log trim around the windows, log beams, antler chandeliers, comfortable seating, retro yellow table & chairs, a second refrigerator plus a foosball table. Also on the first floor is a spacious knotty pine laundry room with full size washer & dryer, slop sink & recycling containers.
You'll fall in love with the Little Cabin...this the perfect place to get away from it all yet still enjoy many of the comforts of the main camp. Remodeled with knotty pine throughout. A spacious yet cozy room featuring vaulted ceiling w/an Adirondack style ceiling fan & light fixtures, Queen log bed, round wood twig table & 2 chairs, pine chest, small refrigerator and coffee maker. A bi-fold door leads to a full bathroom complete with a hickory vanity w/granite countertop, hickory shelving as well as an Adirondack style mirror & light fixture. It also has it's own hot water tank too. Enjoy relaxing on the covered front porch in the 2 red Adirondack chairs. Please note: Little Cabin is closed up from late Fall-late Spring.
The outside speaks for itself really...you simply won't find a better setting! Start the day with a cup of coffee sitting in one of the Adirondack chairs on the dock while watching the morning mist slowly rise off the lake. Spend the rest of the day swimming, kayaking, hiking, fishing, or rent a pontoon boat & tour the Fulton Chain of Lakes. Discover the several waterfront restaurants in both directions that welcome boaters, a memorable way to have breakfast, lunch or dinner. Finish your day sitting around the campfire telling stories and roasting marshmallows or head to the dock for spectacular star gazing.
It is rare to find a camp of this quality and superb location, truly a quintessential Adirondack experience!
