Dear Visitor,

Think of me as Your Adirondack Guide. I'm from the city, so I know where you're coming from. And what you're looking for.

I came to my Adirondacks 40 years ago. Here, in a small mountain valley, I discovered the woods, fields and homesites of the pioneer settlers who made their way here from New England in the 1700's. Abandoned by their successors for an easier life in town when electricity got here in the 20's. I explored the many roads, trails and skid paths accessing every corner of the place. I loved their place, so I set about to preserve it, to keep it open. In the process, I discovered a way of spending time away from my work in the city that was more healthful and refreshing than any commercial vacation experience.

Over the years I built Adirondack-style places to share my experience with a few personal friends, clients and employees. Today (retired from business in the city) I'm renting them to select vacationers who appreciate quiet, seclusion, and real comfort in a natural place. There are seven Fourpeaks camps (cabins) to choose from. Each one is architecturally unique, authentically Adirondacks, with all natural building materials, tucked away in its own secluded wilderness setting with lots of open space all around. Functional housekeeping with complete kitchen, fireplace, comfortable old furniture and rugs.

Adirondack Park development restrictions (in place since the early 70's) and my own bent for preservation make Fourpeaks a genuine Ecotourism vacation experience. Not for everybody. Gas lights, no electricity. Hand pumps, no running water. An outhouse, not a flush toilet. A wood stove, not central heating. But I'll be your Your Adirondack Guide and show you how--the fun, the Quiet and the beauty which living close to nature "Off The Grid" brings with it, even if you stay just a week or a weekend. Living green, the lifestyle of the pioneers.

Thanks for finding Fourpeaks. I hope you'll visit soon, then like it enough to make my place your own private 4-season Adirondack getaway.

There's a lot to like. Right at your doorstep are miles of woods roads and trails for exploring Fourpeaks hidden valley and four mountains. The AuSable River, prettiest stream in New York, is at the bottom of the hill by the old covered bridge. And it's far enough away from Lake Placid so there's no tourism to spoil your view.

Romantic getaway? Vacation with your pet? Experienced in backcountry living? Or just want to try something different? Fourpeaks is your kind of place!
