About this home
Set along the storied banks of the Schroon River, this distinguished Adirondack Great Camp--once the celebrated Sally Miller Smith Retreat--stands as a testament to a more indulgent and spirited age and is presented in immaculate condition. Originating in the late 1700s and refined during the height of Prohibition, the estate carries an air of quiet rebellion, refined leisure, and old-world prestige.
Within its walls, one is transported to an era of lavish gatherings and hidden indulgence. The lower-level speakeasy recalls an era of clandestine soirées, whispered passwords, and crystal glasses raised in celebration., while the Great Hall, anchored by a commanding stone fireplace with prohibition-era features, sets the stage for elegant entertaining. Rich cedar and native woods define the interiors, complemented by enduring details including servant call stations, secret passages, and the original Glenwood cookstove. Notably, many bathroom and tavern fittings were sourced from the original Waldorf Astoria Hotel, adding a rare layer of historic provenance!
27 rooms unfold with balance and purpose, including nine well-appointed bedrooms--six with private baths--alongside intimate gathering spaces and inviting common areas. Nine fireplaces and two wood stoves lend warmth and character throughout.
Beyond the residence, the grounds evoke a curated country estate. Formal English gardens with fountain and gazebo provide a picturesque setting, while the gentle rush of the Schroon River Falls offers a constant backdrop. Two protected natural springs, fed through original brass piping, deliver a pristine water source.
The estate presents an exceptional opportunity as a private compound, luxury retreat, or refined culinary destination--ideal for farm-to-table dining, private chef experiences, or boutique hospitality. A rare offering where history, setting, and opportunity converge in classic Adirondack fashion.
