The Fern Lodge

In the midst of the majestic Adirondack Mountains, overlooking pristine Friends Lake, there stands a wondrous Guesthouse where luxurious lodgings, sumptuous beds, indulgent baths and unforgettable breakfasts join in an atmosphere of rustic elegance and lakeside living.

The Lodge's three intimate guest rooms are uncommonly comfortable ~ both rustic and elegant, even magnificent. All guest rooms have king-size beds, large stone fireplaces and wonderful lake and/or mountain views, all have private luxury baths with deep-soaking Jacuzzi tubs, all rooms have a small wet-bar and refrigerator and television. The nightly rate includes an unforgettable breakfast, nightly turndown service, Wi-Fi and a variety of on-site activities.

Within the lodge, enjoy relaxing in the mission-influenced classically elegant Adirondack Great room with vaulted log ceilings and magnificent stone fireplace or in the evening gather round the out door fireplace on the screened in porch. The ground floor that walks out to the lake features many relaxing sitting areas, a pool table, the wine cellar, a game table, a nine-person theatre, a sauna and exercise equipment (Bowflex, free-weights, an elliptical, medicine ball, swiss ball).

Our 70- acre wooded property borders on pristine Friends Lake. Use our Kayaks or lounge in the sun before a dip in the lake. The lake is well-known for small mouth bass fishing. There is very nice hiking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing right here on the property. Our beautiful 24’ ELCO electric launch is used for a late afternoon boat tour of Friends Lake complete with beverages and hors d’oeuvres.
