Fantastic Get-away that's closer than you'd think

Chapendo Acres is the perfect spot to get away from it all without having to drive halfway across the Adirondacks to get there. (Secret: it's only 25 minute north of the Thruway, but you'd never know it.) Quiet, friendly, uber-well maintained. Full hookup electric 50A, water, septic, wifi. Hinckley Reservoir is a short walk down a wooded glen. Liked it so much the first time we came...
