Slow time down. If you are looking for a great place to enjoy the outdoors and re-connect with family, this is it.

There is a beach, dock and fireplace pit at the water's edge. Rental includes use of the motorized raft, canoes and small sailboat.
My family has long ties to Star Lake going back to my great grandmother. We bought this home on the water and have created many terrific memories here. It is truly our 'little piece of heaven'. We hope you will feel the same.

The Adirondacks has to be visited to be appreciated. It is unlike anywhere else on the East Coast. If you like vacationing at a place where time slows down and the you are devoid of all distractions, this is it. This is the ideal setting for creating family memories.
The natural beauty, the beautiful summer weather, the kind of activities that require total family involvement. Waking up in the morning to the call of the loons and walking down to the pier to drink your coffee. Looking at the stars at night around a campfire.
This property and the owner are absolutely amazing. Right on the water. Beautiful views. Plenty of room. Fully upgraded kitchen. The home has beautiful colorful walls and newer furniture. We had a wonderful week with not a care in the world. Thank you Buckinghams. You really do it right.
This is a wonderful space that embraces all the beauty of the Adirondacks while providing the comforts of home at the same time. A gorgeous clear lake with a wonderful sandy bottom at the shore. Swim out to the float, canoe the lake or take out the motorized raft for a sunset cruise. Then come home to the top notch kitchen and cook a wonderful meal and relax with a movie in the large and airy family room. Wrap up your day with a soak in the deep tub overlooking the lake and crawl into the incredibly comfortable beds and fall asleep to the sounds of the loons. This is where you come to relax!
On a practical note the house is extremely clean, the sheets and towels are plentiful and of good quality, the kitchen is stocked with all the tools you need for preparing excellent meals, the dishwasher and washer and dryer make things easy, the beds are comfortable with new mattresses, and the bathrooms are very clean and modern with plenty of hot water.
We plan to come back!
Our group of 7 enjoyed our stay here very much . The house was clean and well kept , we felt very at home and relaxed. We are hoping to book another stay next year. You won't be disappointed, the owner s very easy to work with .
Star Lake is a beautiful lake. The house had plenty of space for our large group and was well equipped with all we needed. It is a perfect spot for kids of all ages. We had children 18 months to 6. The water access was perfect for them. My 94 year old father was with us and it was a good fit for him. The floating dock was awesome, and he was able to be part of that. The little ones loved the sandbar.
We spent most of our time at the house. We went out for breakfast in Cranberry Lake. There are lots of waterfalls to explore in the area and other Adirondack attractions within a minimal driving distance. The owner was very helpful and answered any questions that we had. We would definitely come for a return visit!
Star Lake, the 'Gem of the Adirondacks' , is spring fed and known for its clarity and freshness. Relax, fish, swim, hike, have campfires and enjoy each other’s company. Cruise the picturesque lake and anchor at the sandbar on our motorized 'classic raft boat'. A canoe and small sailboat are also offered in the house rental. Or if you prefer, simply lounge along the shoreline enjoying day long sunshine. For you golfers, there is also a 9-hole public golf course less than a mile away.
Surrounded by 500,000 acres of wilderness there are ample opportunities to hike and explore.
