OUR STORY

Saved 55 acres from becoming 200 condos

Christine bought this peninsula to preserve one of the most beautiful stretches of the Mohawk River. She's been restoring each cabin one by one — bringing back the charm of old-style riverfront getaways along the original Erie Canal.

The property once housed the horses that pulled Erie Canal barges. Today, 12 cabins are open, each with its own personality — some polished, some perfectly quirky — and more are being restored. Crooked floors, incredible views, and the kind of peace that keeps people coming back.

“We were in town to run the Mohawk Hudson River marathon and this was the perfect place to stay — close to where we needed to go, peaceful, quiet, restful. Very pretty especially this time of year in the fall.”

“Every morning began with coffee and a beautiful sunrise over the Mohawk River and Twin Bridges. … She was incredibly responsive and proactive—bringing us dry firewood on a rainy day so we could have a cozy fire and even offering to walk our pup if we were in a pinch.”

Fire pit evenings

Every cabin has its own fire pit. Bring firewood, settle in, and watch the stars come out over the river.
