Perfect Adirondacks stay

We had a great time staying at the nook. Kevin and Mary were gracious hosts, had plenty of information about things to do nearby, and checked in with us occasionally without being overbearing. The apartment is nicely furnished and equipped with everything you need. It was cozy and comfortable. Not sure we'll ever get to this part of the US again, but if so I would gladly stay here a second time.

IMMACULATE, LARGE APARTMENT

Mary and Kevin were wonderful hosts who were there when I needed help with the TV, while providing me a peaceful, quiet place to relax. The apartment was spacious and meticulously kept. I was looking for a place near the heart of town and not in the woods. This apartment was ideal!

Great space and location in Saranac

Everything was great for our weeklong hiking and paddling vacation. The location is central for beautiful hikes for all abilities and fantastic lakes, ponds and rivers. The town is walking distance to get to great places for breakfast, dinners and pub food. The house is very clean and well equipped, with much more than we ever use. Mary and Kevin are great hosts and are very helpful, even with ideas for hiking and paddling trips. Great time in the Adirondacks and a great place to stay for the week.

What a cozy, lovely place to stay!

The Nook is a real gem in Saranac Lake! My wife & I could have just stayed inside the entire time, it's that cozy! Mary & Kevin are the most friendly, hospitable hosts, ready to answer any questions, give recommendations of things to do, places to eat. We were more than thrilled to stay there, and we will be back!!

My understanding is that Mary and Kevin are renovating and will only have 1 unit going forward, so I can't usefully comment on that. But given their attentiveness, graciousness and conviviality, I'm sure it will be just fine! :-)

Million Dollar Views!

My wife and I loved the condo! Our favorite parts were the views and watching the sun melt into the gulf every night! It was everything that was advertised in the listing and more. The condo is a nice size, quiet, very nice furniture and an awesome king size bed in the master. We also liked that you could walk to restaurants nearby. The Marriott Resort had several nice options, and the Bimini Bait Shack was a great place to grab a beer and a burger. Easy access by car to Sanibel, Captiva, Ft. Myers and Cape Coral.
