Encompassing 6 million acres of hardwood forests, serene lakes, and soaring peaks, Adirondack Park in Northern New York State is the largest park in the contiguous United States and one of its most stunning natural attractions. From its tranquil perch inside the park on Schroon Lake, Brill Island gazes upon the Adirondack Mountains, offering a hideaway from the world with front-row access to outdoor adventures. The call of nesting loons and morning mist rising from the water add to the island’s idyllic landscape.
Ideal for a family getaway or group retreat, this six-acre private island rental property features a trio of accommodation options. Nestled within Brill Island’s pine, birch and maple trees is a six-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom main house with lakefront porch, cozy living room with fireplace, and open-plan dining room with chef’s kitchen. A charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage has its own kitchen and fireplace and screened-in porch overhanging the calm waters. The main house and cottage have air conditioning and auxiliary heat, and there is wifi throughout the property. Two glamping tents with king-size beds share bath facilities in the Adirondack Barn where families can gather for evening entertainment, dinner seating, games and more —expanding the experience of immersing in nature without sacrificing comfort.
Beaches ring the island, providing easy entry points for swimmers, fishing for trout and salmon, or launching the kayaks and stand-up paddleboards that are included. A lakeside firepit looks to the north, walking trails weave through the island’s interior, and lawn games like bocci and cornhole are available. An on-site manager can assist with boat transport and tours, ensuring there is never a shortage of activities. It’s only a five-minute boat ride to the mainland car park in Pottersville, N.Y., the jumping off point to explore scenic Schroon Lake town 10 miles north, with its swimming beach, hiking and biking trails, and delicious dining options. Lake Placid, Saratoga, and the Albany airport are no more than 75 minutes away. Conveniently located midway between New York City and Montreal, Brill Island opens the Adirondacks while giving visitors the privacy to bask in its beauty.
The island can provide a boat and resident manager, or if desired, guests are welcome to bring their own boat or rent a boat from the marina for transport, water skiing, tubing etc.
