Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
Welcome to the Moody Cure at Saranac Lake, nestled in the heart of NYs Adirondack Mountains, offers a "decidedly different" charm. It's a year-round outdoor enthusiast's paradise, boasting miles of interconnected waterways for paddling, and diverse hiking trails ranging from family-friendly ascents to challenging Adirondack 46er peaks. Boasting a vibrant arts scene, quaint shops, local eateries, and a strong community spirit. Set up for the weekend warriors, fammilies, or work-from-home crew.

The space
Built in 1914, The Moody Cure was born as a boarding house of sorts... for those with tuberculosis seeking clean mountain air. Knowing this, you will spot many hidden vestiges of the past. One unmistakable feature is the three season front porch with built in window-on-rail system. This porch was designed to bring the "cure" of the outdoor air into your lungs and spirit. We hope it does the same for you.

First floor has 1 King bedroom with a SMART TV, a Queen bedroom with an adjacent 3 season porch, and a full bathroom. The second floor boasts two King bedrooms and a bathroom.

Guest access
If headed to Lake Placid, it's close by and an easy drive - 3 roads and 13 minutes away by car.

Mt Baker Trailhead is a half mile away for a 1.8 mile medium difficulty hike with a view. More casual hiking is even closer in The Pines trail. Walk, bike or drive the other direction the same half mile distance and you are downtown exploring the riverwalk, restaurants, and other attractions. We love the indoor carousel, Saranac Lake Museum, and grabbing fresh to-go meals at Nori's. Bitters & Bones is a go-to for any night premium pub food, or The Boathouse for something special with a view.

Bring your smile when you walk on the Moody Pond loop. This neighborhood has wistful feeling and frequent pedestrian traffic.

Park in the driveway and be sure not to block the shared driveway.

Other things to note
A kayak with paddles is available for use. You must have transportation for the kayak. It is a 2 person kayak (fits in my Kia Telluride with the back hanging out of the trunk; truck transportation preferred). Please use these complimentary amenities with respect, clean after use and replace where found.

We pay for plow service to plow the driveway. We leave shovels for your use. Bring boots and plan for weather. Thank you for understanding the balance of independence and service!
