NEWS FLASH: The second phase of the Adirondack Rails to Trails was completed last August; the trail is now 25 miles long and still growing!
The Setting & Amenities:
Our wooded Oseetah Park Peninsula setting is one of a kind! Located between Lake Placid Village (9 miles) and Saranac Lake Village (5 miles) it is accessed via a mile-long private road through State forest lands. The westerly end of the road is a long “causeway” passing over a huge protected bog/fen with panoramic mountain views.
Although our lot does not have direct Oseetah Lake shoreline access, there is a private community launch site (within 1/3 mile) for non-motorized boats. From this launch, one can access all of Oseetah, Kiwassa and Lower & Middle Saranac Lakes for great paddling as well as pike, bass & walleye fishing. Bring your kayak or canoe! Rentals are also available locally.
In addition to the great water access, our private road actually INTERSECTS with the new Adirondack Rails to trails System!! Now directly from our studio space, one can bike, hike or ski east to Lake Placid or west to Saranac Lake to continue way beyond to Floodwood. Currently, the entire finished trail is 25 miles long, passing through incredible wild bogs, over Lake Colby and alongside many smaller ponds. Once fully completed in 2025, it will be 34 miles long, terminating in Tupper Lake.
See the Region 5 DEC website for more info. Please note, if snowmobiling, it would be necessary to transport (not ride) your sled to one of the trail parking areas. Bring your bikes or skis! Rentals are also available locally.
Available for guest use are our snowshoes and a wide tandem fishing kayak. Please note the latter is much heavier than a standard kayak as it is not built for speed or long trips but rather for stability. It is great for local paddling in our beautiful bog areas and of course fishing.
Please note, there is a short walking path (appx 75') up a small grade from the private parking area to access the studio end of the building. The mountain view photos shown are from the access road into Oseetah Park. The lake-view photo is our community public boat launch described above. The view from the studio is a meadow. We are not wheelchair accessible due to the raised step platform for the bathroom area.
The Region:
Our Adirondack High Peaks Tri-lakes region is world renown for its outdoor recreational access. We keep Chamber of Commerce guides and pamphlets on-site. The huge Adirondack Paddlers map is prominently displayed. The NCPR.org website has an events calendar and there are events (many occurring annually) listed under a regional Chamber of Commerce search on-line.
There is downhill skiing available in Saranac Lake within appx15 min at Mt Pisgah. Both Whiteface mountain Ski Resort and Mt Van Hoevenberg Olympic Center (for X-Country skiing w/ other winter recreation) are within an appx 30 min drive.
The Studio Space:
Our Zen-inspired studio was created within our Japanese style workshop. It is situated on an adjacent one acre lot w/private driveway, parking area & path. Wi-Fi is Starlink. There is a queen-sized bed with loveseat and dining area, efficiency kitchen and bathroom area w/ shower. A wall-mounted television allows viewing from either the bed or the loveseat. The floors are porcelain tile, so bring your fuzzy slippers!
Studio space only allows a small 'fridge so additional freezer space is available during the colder months in the adjacent unheated workshop. However, from mid June on, the full size refrigerator in the same workshop can be used.
Outside & the Zen Garden:
In the warm seasons, take your brimming, morning-coffee mug outside to greet the early morning sun (and often a few deer) from the front covered patio. Or turn the corner into an intimate, zen-pond garden. Simply switch on the recirculating pump, settle into the Adirondack lounge chairs within our screened-in gazebo and listen to the soothing trickle from the bamboo spout. In the evenings, the fire-pit awaits!
Although we do have rural lands to the rear and State lands bordering the east line of our lot-- which gives it more privacy than most-- we cannot allow loud parties as there are other residents across the road. And the speed limit for the Oseetah Park Rd ROW is 15 mph for all of us.
