Monthly Rentals in Benson

Great place for a few days of hiking in the Adirondacks with several great trails nearby. We were there in April, so many businesses still seemed shut down/on winter hours. The house itself was on a small highway, but it was surprisingly quiet with little traffic. The place was simple, comfortable, and cozy and had ample space for the two of us but could definitely accommodate more people. We cooked a lot, and the kitchen was outfitted with pretty much everything we could want, although the lighting could be improved a bit (not much light over the stove). Overall, would highly recommend!

The schoolhouse has been charmingly renovated and features high quality fixtures and appliances. The decor is very attractive. We really enjoyed our stay. The location is very convenient for cross country skiing at Lapland Lake - literally a three-minute drive. We also went snowshoeing one day and the host was very helpful with details about trails in the area. In general, she was very quick to respond. We were two couples sharing the place and cooking together. While the house is big enough, there is no dining table, just a kitchen island. The stove is really big and with double ovens, but we had trouble finding ovenproof kitchenware to use. The regular fridge was broken when we were there (the host had told us in advance) and we just had a mini fridge. Luckily we could store food in the cars as it was either freezer or refrigerator temperature.

best location for XC skiing for 4 of us. Aside from some traffic noise, best bank for the buck visiting lapland lake

The little cabin was very cozy and comfortable. Most everything was there for our convenience and the only thing we have to complain about is the weather and certainly Erica can do nothing about that! 😄 We enjoyed our stay very much and would certainly recommend it to friends as well as we would stay again ourselves.
