DESCRIPTION
Nestled in a private community, hidden in the forest with views of
the Mountains and the Lake, Pocomoonshine, once discovered
becomes a cherished sanctuary, many times for many generations.
Hark back to a former time, a simpler time, far away yet close to everything.
Our year round camp entices everyone with it's rustic charm,
multilingual library, large country kitchen, screened porch and garden with Adirondack
chairs. Carefully restored and refurbished, keeping the antiquarian charm yet
offering modem comforts. There is a wood stove to take the chill out of the
cool nights and a Hot Tub to warm up your spirit. Plentiful windows frame a landscape wherein you feel in concert with and
cradled by Mother Nature. Enjoy your morning coffee, fish or watch the
sunset from our private dock. You never want to leave and always await your return.
Augur Lake is sequestered betwixt two miracles of nature,
Poke-0-Moonshine Mountain, with 1,100 Million year-old walls, resembling
a gothic cathedral and Ausable Chasm, with its intense energy from the
whitewater coursing rapidly through the deep gorge. We are in the heart of the Bread Basket of the Adirondacks, where valley
farms offer organic eggs, dairy and produce biodynamically grown. There
are apple orchards too!
High Peaks form the backdrop for these vistas, inviting hikes and
explorations of Swimming Holes, Many Falls, High Falls Gorge, Natural
Springs, Caves, Lakes and Rivers.
On Lake Champlain, only a few miles away, there is a private beach and
boat launch for our community, as well as a ferry to Burlington, Vermont.
Both Bedrooms feature Queen Size Beds fitted with brand new orthopedic
mattresses. All bedding and linens are chosen for their high quality and
esthetic appeal. Creating a pleasing and comfortable nest was our goal.
The Master Bedroom whispers of enchantment, decorated with an
interesting synergy of Nature, Native American style and original world art.
Special accents include bamboo shades, red velvet curtains draping the
closet, plenty of pillows and candles create an alluring atmosphere that
stimulates all the senses.
The cheerful resplendence of the Second Bedroom heralds the child
within each of us. The red wall creates a perfect background for the log bed
covered with a patchwork quilt and cacophony of pillows. One can't wait to
hug the Rag Doll or play with the wood carved horse. The hand woven carpet placed on the rustic hardwood floor offers a perfect
spot for such play.
The Queen Size Futon is located in the Living Room / Library.
Here one (or two or three) sleep in this great, open room with high ceilings,
twin paddle fans overhead, wood stove with a blazing fire,
and a dreamcatcher to protect your sleep. The atmosphere is of so many adventures in hundreds of books waiting on
the shelves, antique lamps providing the light, animal masks adorning the
wall. Share scary stories or listen to gentle lullabies of Chopin played on the LP
record player. Where will you choose to go in your dreams tonight?
There is a full tub with a shower in the bathroom. In case you forget,
extra toothbrushes, razors, and special toiletries are there for you.
The heart of the house is the good ole' country kitchen.
It is warm and inviting for gathering together or sitting in solitude on the
window seat and taking in the beauty of nature while indulging in the aroma
of the herb garden just beyond. The butcher block with pots hanging above calls to the chef to create that
memorable meal. He (She) will find no tools lacking for that task.
The antique cherry dinner table is a perfect place for the romantic dinner for
two or for a whole family to have an evening of talks and games.
Fresh breezes blow in from the adjacent enclosed, screened porch -
A perfect place to greet the morning, or soak in the rays of the setting sun.
The colorful radiance of the room hugs you with joy and happiness.
The Mexican tile table, wrought iron cushioned couch and chairs, and
swinging chair create the atmosphere to inspire the artist within you.
Songs about children have been written on this porch.
