12 Cozy Adirondack Cabin Rentals for Your New York Vacation

Is this the year that you escape to the woods for a secluded, laid-back getaway in the Adirondacks?

New York’s Adirondack Mountains offer endless opportunities for hiking, paddling, fishing, and small-town explorations, and it’s one of our top choices for a quick unplugged vacation.

Adirondack Park is a vast wilderness area covering more than 6 million acres, making it the largest publicly protected area in the contiguous United States.

Consisting of both public and private land, it’s the largest National Historic Landmark in the US, covering an area larger than Yellowstone, Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Glacier, and the Great Smokies National Parks combined.

Thanks to its close proximity to large metropolitan areas on the East Coast, it’s no wonder that the Adirondacks are so appealing to outdoor-loving travelers.

Whether you want to spend a quiet afternoon fishing in a mountain stream, paddling a pristine pond, or hiking or biking a mountain trail, you need the perfect place to unwind afterward.

We’d like to suggest the following Adirondack cabins for your next New York getaway. Because spending time in the woods is the best medicine for all that ails you.

You can find these beautiful Adirondack cabin rentals on VRBO or Airbnb.
