About this property

Mountain Laurel Cabin at The King's Pines

This hand built cabin is situated privately on 50 acres of pine woods in the Adirondack foothills. From cutting down the trees, to making the logs on our sawmill and picking up our hammer, we lovingly hand-crafted it. The cabin features a hot rainwater shower and sink; solar electricity for the lights, and a wood-burning stove. You'll find a propane cook stove inside and a barbecue grill (propane) outside. Named Mountain Laurel, the cabin is situated at the top of a hill, with beautiful shade trees, cool breezes and a great view of the pine woods. It features a queen size bed in the main living area and a full size bed in the loft. A dining area is on the main floor along with a wood burning stove with a screen that can function as a fireplace. Experience cool breezes all summer long on the full-size porch. The catwalk off the loft leads you to a balcony with a beautiful ten-mile view. The shower room is located under the cabin on ground floor level. A very neat and clean "glorified" outhouse is located in a separate building a few yards from the cabin. If you are looking for a cabin with an indoor bathroom, please check out our Lion's Den cabin HA 9143513. We are located close to access points for ATV and Snowmobile trails. Numerous lakes are a short drive away for kayaking, canoeing, swimming and fishing in the summer. In the winter, enjoy cross-country skiing, snow shoeing, hiking and snowmobiling. Snow Ridge, which boasts the first snow of the season, is thirty minutes away. We request reservations to be made at least 48 hours in advance of arrival date. Come and enjoy our back-to-nature cabin in our quiet pine woods.

Perfect Eclipse Getaway
We went up to Croghan to watch the eclipse. It was a lovely cabin with alll the amenities (and more) that you would expect from a Glamping trip. Solar and rainwater were harvested beautifully to give you the basics you'd need from a stay in the middle of nature. Stacked with cord wood and propane, oil lamps, candles, wide private spaces, swings, firepit... Can you tell I am at a loss of what I can talk about as I am just jumping all over the place :))! On top of it all, Rick was super helpful and communicative. It was a unique stay experience and I'd hold it in my memories fondly.

Wonderful Stay
The property was absolutely beautiful, 50 acres of snow-covered secluded forest in upstate NY. If Rick hadn't told us he had two other cabins on the property I would have had no idea, this cabin is located in a great spot to offer lots of privacy while still leaving tons of room for activities. My partner and I got to meet Rick briefly at the start of our stay and he told us some of the history of the cabin and it is truly impressive! These cabins were built by the owner and are well maintained and clean, many accommodations are made so you only have to bring minimal supplies. Our stay was in mid-February and we saw a low of 19 degrees but the wood burning stove and supplied wood was more than enough to keep us nice and toasty in a wonderful winter getaway! The cold definitely should not keep you away as the shower and restroom can be kept warm as well. We plan to come back soon! Thanks for the great stay Rick!

Family weekend
We booked this location because we had a celebration of life get together in Carthage. I loved the cabin it was very cozy. I will say I was surprised by the outhouse and rainwater(my fault I didn’t read all the way through) But it was a trip my Mother and I will always remember:)

About the host

Hosted by Rick and Maria Bohlman

Host profile image
After building tree forts in the woods behind his house as a young boy, my husband Rick decided one day he would build his own cabin. Mountain Laurel is the result of this dream. Hand built from the trees on the property, the cabin is situated privately on 50 acres of pine woods.

Why they chose this property

We loved this property as soon as we saw it. The sweet smell of pine greets you and the soft moss on the ground makes hiking on the property ideal.

What makes this property unique

Situated privately on fifty acres of pine woods, with your own spot of peaceful quiet, the cabin is unique. From the porch you can sip tea or coffee and listen to the birds greet the morning. From the balcony, you can see for ten miles. If it's a quiet get-away you're looking for, you've found it!
