Sit back, relax, and discover the Adirondacks with us at Northwood Cabins. Located one mile east of Tupper Lake on Route 30 we are your gateway to the Western High Peaks. Enjoy the fresh Adirondack breezes from your own front porch or a peaceful early morning paddle from one of the many boat launches located near us.
Our Adirondack cabins provide a nostalgic experience with all the modern amenities. The cabins sleep 2-4 people, have their own private bathroom and all linens are provided. Also all of our cabins are equipped with AC/heat, refrigerators, flat screen TV’s with cable and have wifi access. Two cabins offer full kitchens and a separate bedroom.

“By swift canoe we paddle through those rivers, lakes, and streams. Then sit beside our campfires and stare at the bright moonbeams. Our way of life is not as tough or as harsh as it may seem. This is the life that most men live, but only in their dreams.”

The..Best...Adirondack Canoe Route....Ever.
Bog River to Cranberry Lake
50 mile, with only 2 carries (4+ miles)
Low's Lower Dam, up the Bog River, cross Low's Lake to the Headwaters Carry. Three miles across swamps, eskers, and mud to the Oswegatchie River. Then it's 15 miles of beaver dams, and log jams and rapids to High Falls. From there it's another 15 miles to Cranberry Lake, with just one more carry ( it's about a mile and a half).
If you are in a rush you can do it in 2 or 3 days, or take a week, too many nice campsites to pass up. Either way, once you are done stop in at the Northwood Cabins. A good night's sleep and a hot shower makes the drive home so much better.

With much going on we had to cram it all into one post.
We went to pick up our pieces that had been on display at the Tupper ArtsWoodworkers show since May, and much to our dismay one was missing. Well, come to find out we sold something! It was our wooden map of New York, with the cut out of the Adirondack Park done in old tin. All the materials were found right here on the property, the wood was the lining of an old pantry closet and the tin an old piece of stove pipe. We failed to mention this on the display card so maybe whoever purchased the piece will see this and know they truly have a piece of the Adirondacks hanging in their camp or home. Now we just have to make another one because we need to get something back up on the wall in Cabin 4.
We like to use locally sourced products and services when ever possible so we are happy to say we have added something new to the breakfast that comes straight from the Adirondack forest. Birch Boys Adirondack Chaga Tea. They are now located in the Adirondack Store on Park St. in Tupper Lake. We have chosen the Maple Chaga as our first offering.
Next up, Warrior Run - Tupper Lake is this Saturday at Raquette River Brewing. There is still time to sign up. You can choose between a 5K or an 8K, We are doing the 1P. That's where you volunteer to work the race, get a t-shirt and a pint of beer. Added bonus we are one of many sponsors so we get our name on that free tee shirt, hmm...on second thought that tee shirt and pint are costing us, should have done the race. Come on, who are we kidding we will gladly pay the fee and drink beer.
