Loved our stay! We came a little early in the season, so didn’t get to do a lot of pool and beach activities, but Chuck had it ready for us just in case it warmed up enough! There were lots of games and puzzles for our rainy days. Great hiking close by, great base to take day trips from. The Ferry to Vermont was a favorite for us, as well as a trip to Lake Placid. The view from the house and the proximity to several boat launches were great! The house was plenty big for the 6 of us. Thanks for having us!

Great stay

We loved our stay here. The house was clean on arrival and it was easy to get in. The owner and the local caretaker were very accessible if needed. We loved the pool and especially the included very easy lake access: there are 2 kayaks and a standup paddleboard you can use, and the lake is also great for swimming, as the pool is like 4 feet deep or so, so great for cooling down and fun but not for swimming. The location of this property is great as well for side trips in the Adirondacks (Lake Placid is 1 hour away), and to Montreal (1 hour 40 minutes, depending on how busy it is at the border checkpoint). The furniture and appliances in the house are old(er) but everything works fine and is clean, including the 2 bathrooms. The house also has modern airco in all rooms which was great on hotter days. The one minus point is that the single and double beds are short (like just over 6 feet), and the 2 person beds are double beds and not like queen beds. For tall people like us the double beds were quite narrow for 2 people and not so comfortable for us. Please take this into account when you rent this property. But otherwise we had a great stay, and we would come here again if we are traveling with family in this area.

Fourth of July getaway

We absolutely enjoyed our time at the house. The pool was the highlight of our day, and we made use of it all day long. The house's proximity to the lake was fantastic and very convenient for the family. However, the sliding door needs some attention, and it would be great to have a washer and dryer.

Comfortable and Fun

The house was well stocked, clean, and comfortable - we had fun outdoors and inside on poor weather days. The location was great and offered ample hiking, lake activities and easy access to Plattsburgh. Our host offered a wonderful guide of local attractions and activities. The farmers market on Thursday was a nice way to experience local artists. We spent plenty of time swimming and hanging outside with ample and comfortable outdoor seating and at the lake on the two kayaks, paddle board, and dock. This is the perfect home and location for a family getaway.

Beautiful yard!

We stayed for a week at Caron Hideaway and my family had a great time. The lake was beautiful, the yard is big and the deck was perfect for hanging out and swimming. Inside is accurate to the description/pictures. My young kids loved a chest there full of toys in the area we subbed the play room and we had lots of fun finding insects to catch and observe outside (and some frogs!). Communication was easy and the handyman was very nice but luckily we didn't need him much.

Our family truly enjoyed our stay at Caron Hideaway! The house was exactly as advertised, can you cannot beat the patio/pool/view! We did another High Peak during our stay, and the location helped us make it an easy day, with a nice relaxing day afterwards. Glen was very helpful, and even accommodated us a day early as our plans changed, which is great! Thank you again for a relaxing family vacation.

Great lakeside location with an old house to stay in

We enjoyed our last minute family vacation at this property. It had amazing views of the mountains and great access to the lake. Like others mentioned, the lake was flooded during our stay so we didn’t get to enjoy the beach as expected but that wasn’t the owners fault. We were still able to fish on the little area available and launch the kayaks and the one paddle board. The listing needs updated as there’s only 2 kayaks and 1 paddle board available. It made us a little uncomfortable getting the kayaks and board out of the abandoned, decrepid building by the lake. There’s really no beach area so much as a launch point for a kayak. The house met our needs for our trip, but it is very old. Bottom line, you must rent this property for the lake access, not the house. The location was incredible. The pool was nice and clean as well. We did appreciate that the house was stocked with essential items like hand soap, trash bags, toilet paper, etc that you don’t always receive with a VRBO. The communication with the owner, Glenn, was great. He provided a lot of information and suggestions before and during our trip. Would rent there again for the right price. Future renters please note there was no Verizon cell service on the property. We had to rely on the WiFi. We had to get our Google map all set up with directions while in the house’s wifi before getting in the car.

Great place for a family vacation

We booked the Caron Hideaway for a family vacation. The house is old and dated, but has everything you need and worked great for us. The house is in a great location, close enough to town to access things, yet far enough away to find peace. The views of Willsboro Bay are beautiful. Unfortunately for us, the beach was flooded so we didn't play in the lake, but there is nothing the owner could do about that. We did have the pool, which was great. The handyman on property (Chuck) is very friendly and helpful. The owner (Glenn) was excellent with communication and provided many suggestions on things to do. Definitely go hike the Rattlesnake Mountain Trail - stunning views at the top! Also suggest going to Ausable Chasm. We ate at the Willsboro Diner and recommend it. Would NOT recommend eating at Indian Bay Marina. Overall, we had a great trip and would recommend the property to other families planning a trip to the area.

Beautiful views and property

We had a wonderful time at Caron Hideaway. We chose this property for the beautiful views and pool, neither of which disappointed. The pool was exceptionally large for an above ground pool and clean. It did need to be filled everyday, but was handled by the property manager, Chuck, who was wonderful to have around. The inside of the house definitely needs some updating. The listing describes the home as rustic, but it really is just outdated. However, the pictures in the listing are accurate so what you see is what you get. We weren't too concerned because we were happy to spend most of our time outdoors on the deck enjoying the views and the beautiful flower gardens, which we really enjoyed. The beach is wonderful but definitely needs to be raked. It did smell a bit by the water which was unappealing but raking it would help allievate that issue. We didn't mind the abandoned houses on the property, however, they are a little spooky. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
