Welcome to Queechy Lake Cottage, a vintage Hudson Valley retreat on Queechy Lake in Northern Columbia County’s Canaan. Built in the 1930s on land that once served as a boys' camp, this charming 1,008-square-foot cottage offers indoor-outdoor living with three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and the kind of peaceful lake living that feels increasingly rare. The interior centers on an open living area with tall, vaulted ceilings and warm wood paneling that catches beautiful light throughout the day. The...Welcome to Queechy Lake Cottage, a vintage Hudson Valley retreat on Queechy Lake in Northern Columbia County’s Canaan. Built in the 1930s on land that once served as a boys' camp, this charming 1,008-square-foot cottage offers indoor-outdoor living with three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and the kind of peaceful lake living that feels increasingly rare. The interior centers on an open living area with tall, vaulted ceilings and warm wood paneling that catches beautiful light throughout the day. The original layout maximizes space without sacrificing the intimate scale that defines a true cottage. Large windows frame views of the surrounding pines, and thoughtful updates preserve the vintage atmosphere. A large screened porch with mahogany wood floors extends the living area during warmer months, while the tiled bathroom and efficient kitchen support quiet functionality. Outside, the compact cottage includes a level lawn with room for a garden, a small storage shed, parking for two vehicles, and a spacious deck for entertaining, grilling, or unwinding after a day at the lake. As a member of the Queechy Shores Association, the property includes access to a private beach, lake docking, and mooring rights. The beach sits a five-minute walk from the cottage, offering a place to swim, kayak, or simply enjoy the water. Currently configured as a three-season cottage, the property could be converted to year-round use with insulation added to the floors. The location provides a practical balance: close to Tanglewood for summer concerts, the Berkshires for hiking and cultural attractions, and Chatham or Pittsfield for groceries and essentials, yet less than 2.5 hours from New York City. The property sits on a quiet lane within the association, where the pace slows and the focus shifts to seasonal rhythms. Whether used as a weekend escape, a writer's retreat, or a summer residence, Queechy Lake Cottage delivers straightforward lake access and a nostalgic atmosphere. This is a place to settle in and discover the kind of quiet oasis that drew people to the water in the first place. With summer just months away, now is the time to secure your place on the lake.
