DESCRIPTION
This
historic Crater Club camp was built by the renowned
conservationist; John Burnham in the 1920’s and
still has much of the character and charm today, but
with many modern upgrades.
The camp is aptly named “
Vista
” for the incredible view of
Lake Champlain
and Split Rock off the screened front porch.
It is situated only 1.5 miles from the Village
of Essex, NY and is only 40 minutes to the
Adirondack
High
Peaks
and
Lake Placid
.
Lake George
is only an hour away.
The Essex/Charlotte ferry makes many points of
interest in
Vermont
very accessible.
This camp
has three bedrooms and three bathrooms (very unusual
in the older camps).
The master bedroom has a queen bed with its own
bathroom and the two additional bedrooms each have two
twin beds. The
living/dining room area has a working wood burning
fireplace for chilly evenings.
The screened porch is where you will want to
live during your stay, with a place to eat meals or
just lounge away an afternoon with a good book.
The owner is a decorative blacksmith, so there
are many tasteful and original works of art to enjoy
throughout the camp.
Crater
Club is an exclusive 600 acre preserve with most camps
being passed down through the generations, and one of
only a handful of grand 19th century private social
clubs that still carry on in the
Adirondacks
.
The Club
maintains four clay tennis courts (with a weekly round
robin during peak summer weeks), a swim dock, boat
moorings, nature trails, kid’s playground and an
incredible historic clubhouse. Traditional potluck
dinners, BYOB parties, cookouts, and other socials are
open to members and guests during the summer. A
supervised morning day camp for youth (ages 5 - 12) is
available on a fee basis during the peak summer weeks,
allowing for adults to pursue their own activities.
Even a lifeguard is on duty at the swim dock during
the afternoons.
This is a
place that you will long to come back to for its
slower pace and quality of life!
