Nestled just 50 miles northwest of New York City, this charming lakefront retreat sits on the serene shores of Upper Greenwood Lake, right along the NJ/NY border. Originally built in 1938 and thoughtfully restored in 2002, the home blends timeless character with modern comfort.

Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, including access to a balcony overlooking the lake—perfect for morning coffee or unwinding at sunset. The home comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests, making it ideal for families or small groups.

Perched atop a natural rock wall, the house offers stunning, elevated views of the water—an unforgettable setting that truly feels like a hidden escape.

Upper Greenwood Lake is a private, non-motorized lake, offering a peaceful, quiet setting—perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view. For guests interested in boating or rentals, Greenwood Lake is just 7 miles down the mountain, where you’ll find public access, marinas, and a variety of boat rental options.

Despite its tranquil setting, the home is only about an hour’s drive from the George Washington Bridge or Lincoln Tunnel. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the nearby hiking trails in West Milford, Hewitt, and Wawayanda State Park, while nearby Warwick, NY offers excellent dining, shopping, and a charming small-town experience.

This is a fully functioning home, lovingly maintained and regularly enjoyed by its owners, which gives it a warmth and authenticity you won’t find in a typical rental. The house is thoughtfully stocked with everything you might need—from a well-equipped kitchen with all the cooking essentials to an abundance of cleaning supplies for a comfortable, easy stay. After a day of exploring, unwind in the deep soaking tub with jacuzzi jets, or venture out to enjoy the fantastic nearby breweries and wineries. For a touch of nostalgia, there’s even a classic old-fashioned drive-in movie theater just up the road. What truly sets this property apart from other lake homes is the breathtaking land itself—lush gardens, natural beauty, and a sense of privacy that makes it feel like your own secluded retreat.

Whether you’re seeking a quiet lakeside retreat or an active getaway, this home offers the best of both worlds.
Located in West Milford, this vacation home is near a water park and on the waterfront. Mountain Creek Waterpark is a popular area attraction and if an activity is on the agenda, Mountain Creek Ski Resort and Crystal Springs Golf Resort are worth checking out. Consider Sugar Loaf Performing Arts Center for a night out or Masker's Apple Maze if you're traveling with kids. Enjoy the area's slopes with cross-country skiing and snowboarding, and don't miss out on the snowmobiling and sledding.
