Legacy House is a beautiful cabin off the beaten path, which features three bedrooms, two full baths, three levels of living space including a Great Room (18 foot cathedral ceiling) with River Rock Fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, large basement rec. room with TV, VCR, DVD Player, and a ping pong table. Built in 2001 Camp Legacy offers all the comforts of a new home with the rustic feel of a traditional Adirondack Camp. It is located within minutes of great cross-country and downhill skiing, … mountain hiking, hiking, swimming, canoeing, and whitewater rafting.
Being located within the Garnet Hill Community, Legacy House boasts exceptional year-round activities. Garnet Hill is a 635-acre private community with private waterfront on spring-fed 13th Lake adjacent to the Siamese Ponds Wilderness Area located less than 10 minutes from Gore Mountain Ski Center. Guests at Legacy House enjoy many activities including, but certainly not limited to, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, mountain hiking, hiking, fishing, swimming, basketball and tennis (two private courts) just out their front door. Garnet Hill Cross Country Ski Center is rated one of the top 10 centers in the country. There are 55 KM of groomed trails and at an elevation of 2,000' the Center receives an abundance of natural snowfall. Typically, there are around 150 days of exceptional ski conditions each season. With Gore Mountain only 10 minutes away and Whiteface Mountain one hour away Legacy House is an ideal winter retreat. After a day out in the cold there's nothing better than relaxing by the river rock fireplace or playing the many games available at the cabin.
The springtime brings forth another river of activity - White water rafting. There are several rafting outfitters within a few miles of the house. The Hudson River Gorge offers the opportunity to face Class V rapids throughout the Spring.
Many who vacation in the Adirondacks find that Summer is the best time of the year. The Garnet Hill Community has the only private sandy beach on picturesque 13th Lake. It is the perfect swimming spot - roped off swimming area, two floating rafts, dock, gentle slope with sandy bottom and beach. The lake shoreline is 96% state owned which makes it one of the most peaceful lakes in the Adirondack Park. You can enjoy the beautiful surroundings and sounds of the loons without being disturbed by motorboats. During the late Spring, Summer, and Fall, the Garnet Hill Mountain Bike Center is in full operation - be sure to bring your helmet! If you forget your bike, bike rentals are available at the Center.
Don't forget about Fall. The leaves are spectacular! Leaf peepers can enjoy the array of colors from the lake, their bikes, or from the many hiking trails originating in Garnet Hill. If you venture out of the community. Legacy House is only 35 minutes from the Tahawas trailhead in Newcomb which leads into the High Peaks Region. Other nearby attractions include the Adirondack Museum, Upper Hudson River Railroad, Adirondack Park Interpretive Visitor Center, Garnet Mine Tours, Lake George, Adirondack Great Camp tours, and all of the tremendous things the Adirondacks has to offer.

“Our family had a wonderful stay at this house on a long fall weekend. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals and dine, the beds were comfortable, the downstairs provided a nice retreat while a group watched a football game, and the large living room was cozy for evening reading. The surrounding area provided plenty to do. It was a very cozy and relaxing weekend!”

“This past February 2021, my family had a fantastic vacation at Legacy House. It was simply one of my favorite weeks in a long time. Our family had such a wonderful time downhill skiing at Gore and Whiteface, cross-country skiing at Garnett Hill (and searching for Garnetts at the old mine), ice skating at a park near your cabin, sledding and tubing, hiking around the area, and building snow forts. Our meals together every evening around the spacious table were a highlight as was the evening time for reading in front of the gorgeous fireplace. We had a ping pong and foosball tournament too. Sadly my team lost. The basement was the perfect place for our family to have some evening recreation after a day out in the cold. The cabin is so beautiful. It is obvious the owner is seeing to care for the building well. After what was an extremely stressful winter, having that time together as a family was rejuvenating. We were grateful for the privilege it was to rent Legacy Lodge. We had a memorable and delightful family vacation.”

“Just returned from a weeks stay at Legacy House. Could not have been a more perfect stay. The house had everything needed for a comfortable week. The kitchen was fully equipped, lots of wood for cozy fires, plenty of games for amusement and the best was only a 15 minute walk to access the Garnet Hill ski trails. Snow conditions were amazing. After feeling like we've been locked up for a year life felt normal again. I would definitely stay here again!”

“My family of 5 (3 teenage boys) stayed at the Legacy house for two nights during the winter 2020. The house itself was well suited for our needs. Although there are many things to do in the area, we would have been content to stay home the entire time! They had plenty of board games as well as foosball and ping pong to keep us occupied. The kitchen was well appointed and organized. The house was clean, offering up coziness and spaciousness all at the same time. We can't wait to return in the summer to take advantage of all of the activities in the area. ”

“My family rented The Legacy House at Garnet Hill this Christmas for a week. We have been bringing our children up to Garnet Hill Lodge for cross country skiing since the early 1980's and it is a favorite location for our entire family and now....for our extended family which includes our four grandchildren. It was our first time to have Christmas away from home and since we are all together only every other Christmas, we wanted it to be special. It was in every way! The owner was very easy to work with (and very patient with all the questions and emails I sent!) and the accommodations worked out great with our family of twelve. We felt the cottage had everything we needed and the rental fee was very affordable. Everyone loved it! And our grandchildren especially loved the lower level with their own sleeping quarters (six bunk beds!) and a game room. We were fortunate that many of the trails were groomed at Garnet Hill so that despite the weather our family was able to cross country ski and snowshoe in great conditions! It was a magical Christmas away from home....simple, relaxed, layed back! Just what we all needed and looked forward to! So blessed to have found The Legacy House and to have had this time away for Christmas with our entire family!! ”
