From the owner

Moon Over Moose is a luxurious, five-bedroom log home vacation rental privately located on the meandering Moose River. It can accommodate 10 guests. An ideal location, guests can walk to the shops and restaurants in the center of Old Forge, New York in less than ten minutes. Its big handcrafted logs welcome guests as a comfy home away from home and from there guests have easy access to all the Adirondack Park has to offer.

Moon Over Moose is completely in accord with the mountain landscape all around, its log walls and peaked roofs brushed by high pine boughs. Inside there are five distinctive, comfortable bedrooms, four bathrooms, and every modern convenience. Wood floors and tile throughout, mountainscapes and framed art hang on the walls. Throughout the day, golden light fills the cabin’s rooms, and there is a constant feeling of spaciousness and peace.

Just beyond the light-filled entryway, the living room awaits you with a stone-faced gas fireplace, home theater television with surround sound and high-speed internet/Wi-Fi. Tall windows frame the tranquil Moose River and trees outside – seasonal art in themselves, ablaze with color in fall or garlanded in snow. Sliding doors open to an outdoor living area with outdoor dining, Adirondack chairs, fire pit and the fresh balsam air of the forest.

Moon Over Moose is as suited for relaxing after a day of hiking, biking, kayaking, paddle-boarding, golfing (to name just a few) as it is for high-style entertaining. Full sets of table linens, china, crystal and flatware are at hand, and the dining room table will easily seat eight with additional seats at the adjacent game table.

With its stove, full size fridge, dishwasher, and array of gourmet cooking equipment, this luxury Adirondack Mountain rental property can accommodate cooking enthusiasts or a professional chef. The room has an open layout and a prep table that make meal preparation easy and communal. Just beyond the kitchen is a covered porch with a gas barbecue grill for cooking in the open air.

This main level also holds a charming light filled log bedroom with a queen bed and easy access to a full bath with walk-in shower.

The upper level holds the cabin’s spacious bedroom one with ensuite bathroom. A rough-hewn, log frame queen bed and vaulted ceilings await you. Comfy seating and a desk overlooking the Moose River for those dreaming of a quiet and contemplative space for writing. Relax and unwind in the spacious jetted soaking tub or walk-in shower as you gaze out at the treetops!

Bedrooms two and three share full bath with tub/shower are on this upper level. Each bedroom has one queen bed and extra twin bed off to the side - so each room could comfortably sleep three tired adventurers. Bedroom two overlooks the Moose River while bedroom three has a cozy window seat – and both have comfortable seating and reading lights for those seeking a quiet spot to relax. An alcove at the top of the stairs is the perfect meeting spot for a spontaneous game of cards!

Moon Over Moose’s lower level is where guests will find some of the home’s great diversions: a game room with pool table and foosball table, lots of board games, and a framed poster of the Adirondack High Peaks, just to whet the appetite. The guest room has two log twin beds, standing side by side. A bathroom with shower and washer/dryer are on this floor. A bright sun-filled walk out is just steps away from the comfy television and media area!

Moon Over Moose is a charming, personal, and welcoming house that feels very much like home. You’ll be sure to enjoy many adventures each time you visit and keep memories for a lifetime!
