We have been going to Covewood Lodge for several years now and absolutely love it there. We usually go in the fall. The cabins and main lodge are pure Adrirondacks and love the peacefulness of it there. We love the wildlife that is present as well as the location. Close to town , hiking trails and most anything you want... More

My family and I have been vacationing at Covewood every summer for close to 30 years. We love the beauty of the mountains, the peaceful lake and the wonderful friends that we have made over the years. We wouldn't think of going anywhere else and we look forward to our week all year long. Just the perfect relaxing vacation. Our... More

For 32 years, our family has enjoyed the warm, hospitality of Covewood Lodge and cottages, and the natural beauty of Big Moose Lake - we've vacationed in both the summer and October months. Covewood's owners, the Bowes family and their delightful staff, have made our vacations delightful, always accommodating our needs, providing high chairs when our kids were tiny, counselor... More

Our family will be returning to Covewood for the fourth time this summer. We are a well- traveled bunch and Big Moose Lake is by far our favorite spot. The scenery is spectacular and there's no shortage of activities: canoeing, kayaking, water-skiing, hiking or reading on the lodge porch. The staff is warm and friendly and we feel that we've...

Spring Break puts me in the mind of Summer Vacation and I'm already counting the seconds to our 22nd summer at Covewood on beautiful Big Moose Lake. The scenery and the rustically enchanting "ambiance" make it worth the return every year (even for my spouse, who's idea of a vacation is pretty much limited to hot Caribbean sun, sand, and... More

I have been going to Covewood Lodge since the mid 70s, I find it to be a little piece of heaven on earth. I always stay in the housekeeping cabins, but greatly admire the main lodge. They have maintained the wonderful rustic charm of the cabins that have been modernized with conveniences like complete kitchens & bathrooms. I LOVE the... More

Covewood is not a place for people expecting a typical resort experience. So if you are looking for the Hilton, Club Med, or Sandels, you best not reserve time. However, if you are looking for a peaceful, rustic (they are called CABINS after all) family experience, where you don't have to blow dry your hair, put on your make up... More

I made the HUGE mistake of assuming that the pictures on the beautiful Covewood website were giving me the general idea of what all the cottages looked like. NOPE! Not even close! I have to wonder if those pictures were taken there at all. I had just worked all day and then drove for 5 hours and was in desperate... More

This client had been advised before making the reservation that the cottage was meant for "2 very friendly people", that it was small and was directed to the pictures on the website. These folks stayed for 3 days, refused all trash pick-up, never lodged a complaint and walked out without paying or saying word. Had they come to us there... More
