Such a perfect Adirondack vacation spot!
Critter Cabin is everything we want in a vacation cabin. This cabin is authentic with every thing we need. Very cozy, clean, quiet. Wonderful views of Mt. View Lake. All the needed amenities for outdoor activities plus great wi-fi. Such peace and quiet. A perfect place for us and our two dogs. Thank you so much Doug for letting us stay here all these years.

What a Gem
If you are looking for a place to unwind and enjoy the tranquil lake, listen to loon calls and wake up to the sunrise reflecting on the water, this is the perfect place. We have already booked our stay for 2025 and can't wait to return.

Super Cute and cozy çabin
The cottage is very cozy and cute, with log interior with large stone fireplace and gas fireplace. We were disappointed that there was practically no lake or mountain view from the screened porch. Trees and brush obscuring views. The cottage could use a thorough cleaning. Doug, the host, is very knowledgeable about the area and communication with him was very easy. It is best to plan to go to one of the public beaches for swimming or wading.

Beautiful spot
This was everything we were hoping to get out of a vacation to the Adirondacks. We really enjoyed the scenery and the lake, the local hiking trails and the fishing. The location is very secluded and private, but still within driving distance of activities. The cabin was a bit smaller than I was expecting, but it was a perfect size for our family of 4. It should be said that the loft sleeping area has low ceilings and mattresses on the floor, so good for kids but not really for adults. The screened in back porch was really nice, as was listening to the loons on the lake.

Cozy cabin
Great secluded property with a beautiful cabin. Lots of privacy if that what you looking for. For people that love to swim and have fun in the water, we were disappointed with the lake. It’s simply unusable. I think that should be state very clearly in the description of the property. Yes, you can use a boat, but swimming is impossible. Also couple of kayaks on the property would be great additions. Overall, great place on the lake if you are not planning to use the lake for swimming.

In a nutshell
We were looking for a getaway far from the cacophony of the city and we found it. A very beautiful setting, comfortable surroundings and peace and quiet. The home was beautiful and serene. There were a few issues of miscommunication, however. Upon booking, the listing stated there was a hot tub, which was the sole reason we chose this place over the other two rentals we were looking at. The listing was mismarked and there was not a hot tub, something we found out upon our arrival. Also, this home requires you to bring your own linens (towels, sheets) which we only found out a week before our stay. This caused an issue as we then had to purchase sheets (we only had king size at home) and pack/travel, with those necessities. Had we been flying it would have been more inconvenient. They also require you to clean upon leaving (as though it were your own house and you were expecting company). Since we had a very long drive to come home and we had to pick up my mother-in-law at 7am, having to pack up sheets and clean before we left the residence in the morning would have been taxing, therefore we chose to leave the night before and rent a hotel room closer to her, which was an added expenditure we really didn't need. Had we been made aware of these at the time of booking, it may have been a different story. Would we visit again? Yes, as we are now aware of what is expected. But we were caught unaware. The home, however, is worth the cons. AMAZING!!!

Lovely Camp to stay.
This was our second year at Camp Critter. We all loved our stay. The cabin is so cute and cozy. There is the screened in porch in case it rains. Then there is the lovely deck where you can sit outside when it is sunny, feeling the nice breeze blowing on your skin. Then there’s the seating area down by the lake which is lovely to sit at and just watch the water and the beautiful sunsets. Doug is a wonderful host and so easy to talk to. Thank You Doug for sharing your lovely Camp.

We had an amazing time at the cabin. Beautiful cabin and views from the dock and sitting areas. Very private and quiet, just what we were looking for. Doug was a great host and we took advantage of a number of his suggestions such as hiking areas and canoe trips. Cabin has every thing you would need and is well kept. We will definitely be back!

We spent a wondeful week in the peace and quiet at the cabin. The cabin is clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a quiet week away on the lake. We kayaked, hiked and fished and enjoyed the solitude. Doug is a great host - he showed us around when we arrived and made sure our stay was everything we expected. We.would absolutely stay here again! Thanks for sharing your place with us!

Our Vacation at Camp Critters
This was our first vacation since COVID and we chose Camp Critters for several reasons, it is dog friendly, lakefront, reasonably priced, and pretty close to where my son lives in Massena. We found it to be better than the pictures on VRBO, so cozy and charming, with a well-equipped kitchen and large updated bathroom. The loft was small since our family incudes 5 adults, but we used the pull out couch and it worked out. Some of the things we enjoyed about the cabin include; 1. We loved that it is quiet and secluded. There were other camps across the lake, but our cabin was surrounded by woods and the lake. 2. We love the view of the lake and mountains from the dock. 3. We really appreciated that there are two canoes and a rowboat with the life jackets provided. We canoed out to the bigger lake and saw a family of loons and a bald eagle. 4. It was a little chilly one night and we loved the cozy propane fireplace. There are also 3 outdoor fireplaces and one in the cabin and firewood is provided. We had fires almost every night. 5. I loved the screen porch and that we could leave the double french doors out to the screen porch open and let those cool lake breezes blow through the whole cabin. Overall this is a great place to get away from it all and enjoy time with your family. It's far from the crowds that you see at the lakes south of here and we loved that. We all want to come back again next year.

Peaceful Retreat
We had a wonderful time staying at the cabin! The dock is perfect for putting kayaks in the lake and it's not deep water. Our dogs also enjoyed the property. Lots of areas to just sit and enjoy the outdoors including a screened in porch. The kitchen is nicely appointed and has all the basics. We cooked at the cabin most nights and also used the grill that is available. Doug is a great property manager/owner and is readily available to answer any and all questions. He is very through with an overview of cabin and how everything works upon arrival. Overall - We'd definitely return for another visit!

Perfect remote getaway!
Camp Critters is everything we had hoped for! The description and other reviews describe it very well. The cabin is rustic, clean and comfortable. We spent lots of time on the screened-in porch as well as sitting down at the lake and enjoying serene sunsets. It is amazing how quiet it is! We love to hike with our 3 dogs, we found a large variety of trails that we loved. And there are other places to explore if you want to venture farther, like Lake Placid. We wished we had more time! The owner Doug is very kind and helpful. He is a phone call away if needed, but we never needed him because we had absolutely everything we wanted and needed! We loved this lovely remote camp and are definitely planning to return. We could not recommend more for those of you who like to be away from it all.

This is my second year staying at this cabin. Douglas is an excellent host. He meets you when you check in and you won't hear from him again until he calls the night before you leave to make sure you had a good stay. He is readily available if needed and is of course knowledgable of the area. There is plenty of wood for the outdoor fireplaces on the property. Lots of wildlife and fishing from the dock, great cabin.

Most relaxing, dog-friendly, vacation we've had in a long time
The Johnson's cabin is the perfect, remote getaway. It's located down a long driveway, far off the road and except for a few boaters or other homes across the lake, there are no people in sight. The cabin is very cabiny :) and reminded me of the cabin my family owned and that I visited as a child in the 1970's, but it also had an upgraded bathroom, which was nice. The only thing that I can think might concern a guest is that towels and sheets are not provided. It didn't bother us at all to have to bring them, but I imagine if you were flying into the area, it might be a hassle. Doug was very gracious and made sure our stay was enjoyable. Our dogs loved it too.
