Family fun at This Beautiful Lakefront Adirondack Camp

Come find out why we love our camp, the lake, and the North Country so much. Whether it's quiet evenings in a rocking chair on the screened in porch watching the moon rise over the lake, or for the fun and adventures the lake and the Adirondack North Country have to offer, this camp has and does it all. The fall colors are spectacular in the North Country and seeing them by boat from the lake is something special.
Built in 1939 by my Grandfather, modernized in the 80's and 2000's, now available for you to enjoy. I live on the property. I have a separate apartment, so you can see as little or as much of me as you like. I'm there to be your tour guide, boat captain, watersport instructor for wakeboarding, waterskiing, stand up paddleboarding, and tubing, leading day hikes and beautiful road bike rides, or just in the background as your invisible caretaker making sure everything goes smoothly. I grew up spending summers at the camp and it's by far one of the most beautiful and fun places in the world. Please limit the number of people at the camp, at any one time, to 8.
Wake up in the master en suite to the sound of waves lapping at the shoreline. Then coffee at the kitchen table overlooking the lake. The second bedroom has twin beds and is private and quiet. The kids room is just that, with bunk beds, and 2 single beds, trust me, they won't be doing anything other than sleeping in there after all there is to do during the day at the camp. Rain or shine there is always something to do. Mornings, get up early and cut up the glassy water before anyone else. Then a bike ride over rolling hills along the lake, or a hike up Pocomoonshine, paddle out to Schuyler island for a secluded picnic, swimming and tubing in the afternoon. For the less adventurous, shopping in Lake Placid, check out the ski jumps, amazing! The drive to Burlington is just over an hour, with a ferry ride. Head up to Montreal, Canada's largest city, 90 minutes. Don't forget your passport! Rainy days are nice too. Explore Ausable Chasm and raft down the Ausable river, Parc Safari and waterpark is just over the border an hour away. At the end of the day cool down on the screened in porch, or warm up in front of the large fireplace in the living room. Roast marshmallows over a bonfire on the beach, then lay back and count shooting stars. Life at the camp is great. Come and find out for yourself.

The house is charming, peaceful, and relaxing. Lake Champlain was mesmerizing and the sound of the small waves hitting the shoreline was hypnotizing.

Best Memorial Day Weekend!
We had a wonderful experience at this property. The beach and dock were everything our little family could have asked for- and all of the water toys were perfection. We had kayaks, paddleboards, paddle boats and canoes at our disposal. Our host took us out on his boat in the afternoon and was a wealth of information. He was available at all times and improved our stay immensely. I suggest bringing water shoes as the beach is all rocks and definitely hurts the feet. Fires in the evening were wonderful- we can’t wait to return!

Charm and hospitality on Lake Champlain!
Beautiful and fun! My family of four had a great stay at “King Anchorage” and our host Jonathan was the best! We enjoyed being out on the water, spent a lot of time in the awesome screened in porch, and had a cozy fire every night. Took the Ferry over to Burlington for the day too. Hope to visit again some day!

Great camp and great location
We enjoyed our stay. The camp had a variety of water crafts which we used every day. At night there were many games to choose from. The screen porch was perfect for meals and relaxing. The camp could have been a bit cleaner (fridge and main room) but overall we had a nice stay. Jonathan was a great host

LA true lake camp experience
Jonathan's camp is a treasure. The cabin has beautiful views and lots of different places and ways to enjoy them. He provides excellent service. The camp provides the best of charm from another era and modern comforts. From the roaring fire in the fireplace to the lake front screened in porch camp can be enjoyed no matter what the weather brings.

Perfect Family Retreat
Mr. King keeps a very clean, gracious home with wonderful historical photographs, maps, and appointments, and he is discreet, but available and eminently able to inform of the history of the place and area. Great grounds, beautifully kept, on an ideal perch on Lake Champlain adjacent to Schuyler's Island and 15 minutes from the Ferry to Burlington if it rains. In good weather, swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, canoeing, or boat riding are AWESOME!

Fun at the Camp
Jonathan was a GREAT host! Very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the Ausable Chasm, Walker Nature Trail and especially the boat ride to the marina for dinner with Jonathan giving us an informative talk on the lake and the other cabins. The cabin had everything needed including a 549 piece kayak puzzle we finished in two nights.

Beautiful Lake House
We had a wonderful time at this lovely and well-equipped home. The screened in porch is heaven with comfortable rocking chairs and a table that could be opened up to allow dining on the porch. Views cannot be beat. Kitchen was very nice and had everything you need. Living room and bedrooms were very comfortable . Dock was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the scenery. Jonathan was a very friendly and pleasant host, especially nice of him to provide perfect weather too.

Lake Life
We spend a wonderful week at the King Camp with our dog. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The porch really is the best room in the house, spent a lot of time there. We had fun trying out the SUPs and kayaks. Jonathan was very nice and took us out not he boat a few times. He also told us a lot of fun history about the lake and his family camp.

AWESOME
This camp was an AWESOME place to stay. Very clean and the ammenities were very nice. Some adirondack chairs(plastic ones) would be nice to sit on in front overlooking the lake. The screened in room was very nice also and the beds comfortable. the kitchen appliances were very nice with beautiful dishes and stove top ware. the Living room was very comfortable also. Jonathan is a super guy and he ski's(right down my line).

Relaxation and fun
This is our second time visiting this property. Jonathan is a wonderful host and the camp is a special place. Our kids loved using all of the water toys and we spent most days by the lake. There are lots of games to play and the porch is great for reading. The kitchen and bathrooms are recently updated and are great. There are lots of great things to do nearby if you want to leave the property. It is so nice though we stuck around most of the week and just relaxed!

Outstanding Week
This was the best family vacation we have had in years! The setting is beautiful, the host is friendly and helpful, and there are many options for recreation, both on the lake and in the nearby area. We have 4 kids, from age 9 - 19, and not one was bored the entire time. Coming to the Camp reminded me of my fishing trips to Canada with my grandfather many years ago. Warm, inviting, and comfortable house. Thank you, Jonathan, for a week we will long remember. (And may be back soon, based on the pleas from our kids!)
