This cottage consists of a Living room with woodstove, Dining room, Kitchen and Three bedrooms. Two with queen beds, and one with two sets of bunk beds. Two full bathrooms, one with shower, one with tub. Outside sitting area and fire pit. The Gate Cottage is located near the entrance to the property and is about 500 feet from the lake, down a wooded path, to a lakefront sitting area with dock. Available year-round.
The Great Room: The social retreat of an Adirondack Great Camp is the Great Room, a rustically grandiose meeting place for formal and informal activities. White Pine Camp's Great Room is available to guests at all times and provides a comfortable setting with furnishings typical of the era, including stick furniture, leather couches and decorative taxidermy. Firewood in the huge flagstone fireplace is always laid for guests to light at their leisure.
The Overlook: Under a canopy of cathedral pines and overlooking the Japanese Tea House and Osgood Pond is the Overlook. With its expansive vintage red tile patio, pergola, Adirondack furniture and fire pit, the Overlook is a popular spot for a lunch time picnic, late afternoon cocktails or an evening campfire with s'mores.
The Bowling Alley: Part of the Addison Mizner architectural design, the bowling alley was added to the game room in 1911. Yes, the set-your-own-pins bowling alley is still functioning and is much enjoyed by guests young and old. It also boasts a large stone fireplace, pool table and intimate back porch with incredible sunset views of Osgood Pond.
Japanese Tea House: Much coveted by the wealthy ladies of the Great Camps was a Japanese Tea House on an island. Olive White, wife of the original owner, was determined to have one as well. Today the Tea House is one of the most sought-after photo subjects in the Adirondacks. Our guests enjoy unlimited use of the Tea House island as a quiet getaway,

Great place to stay if visiting Paul Smiths College. Very cute cabin with charming Adirondack style. It is rustic & vintage so don’t expect “hotel” like accommodations. This cabin is away from the lake.
We wanted a quiet, dog friendly place where we could cook in, and be close to Paul Smiths Nordic Center. White Pine Camp met all our needs. If you don't mind a little tired and rustic, this place is ideal.
