The River House! 25 Private Acres on the Water!

Riverfront Retreat on 25 Acres | Private Dam, Balcony, Fire Pit & Seclusion

Welcome to The River House, a secluded getaway on 25 private acres along Spruce Creek in Dolgeville, NY. Once part of an old Girl Scout camp, this recently renovated escape blends rustic charm with modern comfort — perfect for families, couples, or anyone looking to unplug and recharge.

Swim or fish at your own private dam, enjoy total privacy in the woods, or sip your morning coffee from the second-floor balcony overlooking the water. Evenings are made for gathering around the outdoor fire pit under the stars.

Inside you’ll find:
Recently updated living area and bedrooms
2 bedrooms + 1 full bath
Smart TV, WiFi, and modern kitchen
Second-floor bedroom with balcony and creek views

Outside you’ll enjoy:
Riverfront and dam for fishing & swimming
25 acres of woods and open land to explore
Balcony with water views, plus outdoor fire pit
Total seclusion — no neighbors in sight
On-site parking

Located in Dolgeville, NY near Spruce Lake — only an hour to Saratoga Springs, and minutes to hiking, lakes, and local charm.

Please note: This home uses well water, which may have a faint sulfur smell at times — it is completely safe and typical for rural creekside properties.

Pets welcome with approval.
