This off-the-grid tiny house is nestled on a 23 acre parcel at the end of a quarter-mile dirt road. The property itself is secluded but is less than 2 miles from the heart of Saranac Lake's downtown. This property is bordered by the Saranac River, the backside of Baker Mountain and State Forest. The only other building on the property is our timberframe which we may or may not be at during the time of your visit. The property does have private trails up to the cliffs on the backside of Baker mtn however, the Saranac River is down a steep embankment so it does not make for a good place to launch a boat (several public boat launches nearby). The Mt Baker tiny house is a great basecamp for hiking the Saranac Lake 6-ers, paddling/boating along the Saranac Chain of lakes or Saranac River, Mountain Biking at Dewey, Pisgah or other nearby BETA trails. IMPORTANT DETAILS: This tiny cabin is completely off the grid: no electricity, heat or cooling. Queen sized bed - we provide the linens. The driveway is narrow - so nothing in tow. Drinking water is provided via jug and dispenser. There is a brand new outhouse (no flushable toilet) We have a designated spot for campfires (smores are a must) There is an older propane grill outside for guest useThis is a newly built tiny cabin (10x16 interior) on a secluded 26 acre parcel. This peaceful cabin, nestled in the woods, is the perfect retreat after a beautiful day of hiking or biking. Relax on the deck and read a book or listen to the birds chirp. At night, build a campfire to roast smores or simply star gaze. Feel free to walk around and take in the beauty of this secluded property located just a mile from town.

Mt Baker Tiny Cabin

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 5 days + this was the perfect location to explore the Adirondacks for the first time for us! The cabin is very close to the downtown area yet feels so secluded. An added benefit for us was the cabin being less than a mile from the rail trail! We loved having no electricity and the hosts include lots of lanterns and batteries. They provided lots of drinking water as well which was super helpful! We loved our stay and would love to come back if we end up traveling in the area again. I do think an outdoor shower in the future would be a huge benefit to the cabin, as it’s a great location to popular hikes and biking!

Mt Baker Tiny Cabin

Just do it.

Okay, keep in mind that I've never been to the Adirondacks before. That said, this tiny cabin would be special just about anywhere. At the end of a gravel road tucked away in a beautiful ravine of trees, the only thing we heard was the sound of birds, rain, the crackle of our campfire. Is it fancy? Nope. It's a "glamping" at its finest with a freakishly comfortable bed. I'm guessing you're looking for a cute, budget-minded place to crash while exploring the area. You've found it.

Our stay was amazing! It’s the perfect place to get offline, recharge, and go on adventures. Loved especially that you felt like you were camping alone in the woods but were so close to Saranac Lake that you could easily access food/shops/amenities. You have everything you need provided (water, lights, bug spray, propane/bbq) and there are so many cute personal touches added to the space that make it comfortable and feel like home. Would definitely recommend if you like camping with a little more comfort 😊👍

Cozy getaway

My husband and I had an absolutely amazing time in our little cabin secluded up in the woods! Surrounded by nature and wildlife was exactly the getaway we needed from the city. Sara and Matt are amazing hosts- we got in a little early before check-in and we're able to chat with Matt before hand about a few things to know about the cabin Before we ran out to the store. With the town being a 5 minute drive away, this was a perfect location for everything we needed. The daddy long-legs are also very friendly and will do anything they can to join you while camping. Such cuties! I'm sure we will see y'all again!

Mt Baker Tiny Cabin

We loved the tiny private cabin surrounded by woods, and were pleasantly surprised by all the many little amenities even in the outhouse! Extra blankets were provided for the cold night. It was so dark and quiet that we slept great. The new ADK rail trail was a short bike ride down the hill which was an unexpected bonus. We hope to return again next year!

Sara and Matt’s tiny house was lovely, clean, and nestled in the woods. We really enjoyed the fire pit, outdoor seating area, and the quiet. Everything was so well taken care of, and it was a 5 minute drive to town. We would come here again in a heartbeat!
