About This Home
Rich in Adirondack history and surrounded by nature, Calamity Cove is a one-of-a-kind year-round retreat offering over 3 acres across two separately deeded parcels with direct boating access to beautiful Loon Lake. Originally home to a campground and later a popular local gathering place, the property has evolved into the peaceful waterfront escape it is today while preserving pieces of its remarkable past. The heart of the home--the spacious great room--features reclaimed architectural elements from the historic Watch Rock Hotel in Schroon Lake, creating an atmosphere that simply can't be replicated. Hand-hewn beams, rustic wood accents, and Adirondack craftsmanship complement this inviting 3-bedroom, 1-bath home. Two wood stoves, open living and dining areas, and a screened porch provide the perfect setting for gathering with family and friends after a day on the lake. A picturesque horseshoe driveway framed by stone pillars welcomes you to the property, where mature pines and hardwoods create a peaceful, private setting. Enjoy level access to your private Loon Lake frontage, making it easy to launch a kayak, hop on the boat, fish, or simply relax while taking in the sights and sounds of the Adirondacks. A large detached storage building offers plenty of room for boats, kayaks, snowmobiles, ATVs, tools, and all your outdoor gear. The second parcel provides exceptional flexibility--maintain it as a wooded privacy buffer or explore the opportunity to build a second home or guest cottage (subject to APA and municipal approvals). Whether you're searching for a year-round residence, a four-season getaway, or a property with future potential, Calamity Cove offers a rare combination of Adirondack history, privacy, recreation, and opportunity in one unforgettable setting
