EAGLE LAKE

Eagle Lake is known as one of the quieter lakes in the region with an abundance of wildlife, tranquil panoramic views and ample outdoor recreation activities by water or land. Eagle Lake features 410-acres of crystal-clear water formed on a plateau with an elevation of 951 feet and is 2.5 miles in length. The source of water that creates Eagle Lake includes an underground aquafer which is why it is known for its pristine waters. Loons, Deer, Brown Trout, American Eagles, Largemouth Bass, Otters, Osprey, Green Frogs, Racoons, Beavers, Moose and more are some of the wildlife that you'll see when visiting.

In addition to all of the recreational activities just steps outside, the area offers endless hiking trails, historic landmarks including the famous Fort Ticonderoga located only 10 miles from the home, the Star Trek Museum located 8 miles from the home, downtown Schroon Lake located 12 miles from the home and a variety of farm stands and apple orchards selling locally grown produce.

MORE ABOUT US:

Originally, the home was built during the Gilded Age (early 1900’s) as a private Great Camp home to the Spaulding family. Eighty-five years later, our family purchased the property and did a complete renovation. In 2021, we were at it again with the newly renovated Lake Lookout Apartment. During both projects, it has been our mission to keep many of the original architectural features of being a Great Camp, while modernizing it to today’s comforts.

WHAT IS AN ADIRONDACK GREAT CAMP?

Early 19th century architects created function from form, taking design cues from nature to establish one of the most recognizable architectural styles of the era – Adirondack Rustic. Expansive lodging compounds, referred to as Great Camps, were designed to blend into their natural surroundings, offering rustic yet luxurious retreats for the Gilded Age elite. Adirondack Great Camps were as synonymous with the Gilded Age as the names Vanderbilt and Rockefeller. Designed to blend into their natural surroundings, these sprawling compounds spanned the most coveted shorelines of the Adirondacks – as well as some of the most remote. The Great Camp on Eagle Lake is one of the homes in the Adirondacks to have this shared history.

If you are looking for a unique location for your Adirondack vacation, this location is ideal for making memories that will last a lifetime.
