Peace, Privacy, Tranquility Just Minutes from Total Excitement and Adventure!

The best of both worlds: A comfy, 5-bedroom family camp with a secluded setting and a large, sandy waterfront with tranquil waters on private, pristine, Lake Okara, just 3.5 miles from Old Forge, one of the most exciting, entertaining towns in the Adirondacks.
Spend the day on the water; swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, canoeing, fishing, or just laying in the sun, catching up on conversations, or that great summer read, in the company of friends and loved ones. The private beach is sandy and goes out gradually, making it the ideal place for small children to wade or learn to swim. The raft is great for sunbathing, horseplay, or just having fun.
When it's time to come in, you have a spacious Adirondack style, year-round camp with knotty pine throughout and all the comforts of home. The Kitchen is centrally positioned and nicely appointed with lots of cabinets and counter space, updated appliances, a breakfast nook, views of the lake, and easy access to all the first-floor rooms.
Chances are good you'll spend much of your time in the screened porch with nice views of the pathway and the lake itself. The seating is comfortable and best of all, the central table has a gas firepit built right in. This is the perfect spot to sip your favorite beverages, enjoy snacks and hor d'oeuvres, or fireside chats; without ever having to swat a bug.
You can also enjoy the wood-burning fire pit by the water's edge. There's nothing quite like the crackling of a fire, the smell of the wood smoke, the flickering flames, and the true ambience of a wood fire. Great for camp songs and S'mores too!
When it's time to turn in, there are beds for 10: 2 queens, 2 doubles, and a bunk. The half bath on the second floor is just steps from any bedroom.
Wake up to the smell of coffee brewing, and the wonderful aromas of your favorite breakfast foods. Hustle downstairs to greet the early risers, rub the sleep from your eyes, and plan to have the time of your life.
If you're looking for adventure, Old Forge is just 5 minutes away and offers many exciting things to do, like "Enchanted Forest/Water Safari", New York's largest water theme park, Calypso's Cove Family Entertainment Center, museums and galleries, a movie theatre, Old Forge Lake Cruises, countless places to shop, and one of the best hardware stores in America. You can even take a chair lift at McCauley Mountain, just 2.5 miles away, and see the incredible views in the summer, or ski the 21 slopes and trails in the winter.
It's open all year long, so don't hesitate to call if you are looking for a place to stay during the winter months. The Fulton Chain Lakes region is one of the best know snowmobiling places in the Northeast and McCauley Mountain Ski Resort is just around the corner. The town is bustling too. Long-term rentals are available in the shoulder seasons and winter months as well.
Peace, privacy, serenity, beauty, and outright fun are awaiting you. Plan your stay now, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Cozy Private Retreat
We've stayed here before and LOVED the screened in porch - this "cabin" is always accommodating and comfortable, very clean as well. We did run out of propane for the firepit, but did at least get to enjoy it for two nights - the beds are comfortable and the living room as well - kitchen well stocked. Close to everything - we will definitely be renting again.

We saw the bears
It was a nice place to stay. The dawns over the little lake were beautiful. We saw a mother bear and her cubs about 2 am. They came up on the porch, knocked over a trash can and left when they saw there was no food in the can. The cubs were very cute.

Family Vacation
The location of the property is fantastic. The lake is crystal clear and warm. We loved being able to use the SUPs (2), kayaks (2) and canoe. Might want to bring your own life jackets. The description does not note that there are plenty of games there. That’s a nice touch. The beautiful camp needs a new toaster. But that’s a minor inconvenience when you have the gorgeous screened porch. Only areas for improvement are - additional lighting on the screened porch; for the price of the rental, it should include sheets; there were no hand towels at the camp; maybe cut back some of the greenery to widen the beach area. We did get visited by a bear around 7:30 am one day. He ran away as soon as he saw me. Overall, great visit. Josh was great to work with, as well. Thank you!

Pass this lakeside rental by!
Nice cabin, beautiful lake, sleeps 10 but water supply is not sufficient. One adult took a shower, flushing toilets, and doing dishes... didn't have water for two days out of the four. Had to bring pails of water up from lake to flush toilets. Absolutely ruined our stay/family visit of which 5 people were from out of state and traveled here to attend. Lighting terrible, had to bring sheets and towels, had to take garbage to transfer station which was only open from 8:00 am to 12:00. I could go on. Very disappointed....wasted a lot of money on this cabin. To top it all off, my 38 year old fill down the weird carpeted stairs a broke two toes!

Friendly visitor.
This was the second time my family and I used this cabin. If you are looking for seclusion with direct lake access and only minutes from Old Forge this is your place. Some highlights of our week were catching bass, relaxing in the screened room and our black bear visitor!

Almost perfect
Location and back screen room were amazing. Only problems were the number of kayaks and canoes were less than described and the kitchen was missing a few things, like a can opener and something to juice a lime with.
