PRESS RELEASE:


 

LEGENDARY GREAT CAMP COBBLESTONE IN THE ADIRONDACKS OFFICIALLY LISTED FOR SALE


One of the most historic Great Camps in the Adirondacks was officially listed for sale today. The announcement was made by Rob Grant & Associates Real Estate in Saranac Lake, which was appointed exclusive broker for the estate.

Camp Cobblestone represents one of the last remaining Great Camps in northern New York and is featured prominently in Harvey Kaiser’s book "Great Camps of the Adirondacks". The estate is comprised of over 20 acres and includes eleven separate buildings and 1500 feet of prime waterfront on Spitfire Lake in the St. Regis chain. Camp Cobblestone’s remarkable architecture features a unique cobblestone boathouse, 2 story stone tower, a magnificent octagonal living room with diamond pane windows and numerous stone guest cottages and buildings.

The historic significance of Camp Cobblestone’s unique architecture is highlighted by the main buildings which are constructed from individual cobblestones that were collected from the bed of the St. Regis River by workers retrieving the stones and placing them on horse-drawn barges. These barges were then equipped with sleds and pulled across the frozen lake during the winter so that stone masons could individually sort the smooth rocks according to shape and size. Each building within the camp compound features magnificent cathedral ceilings and large picture windows commanding sweeping views of both Spitfire Lake and Whiteface Mt.

The complete history of Camp Cobblestone including detailed color photographs of each building can be previewed online at www.AdirondackRealEstate.com

Camp Cobblestone may also be previewed on a newly designed web site devoted exclusively to this historic property @ www.CampCobblestone.com

This property is one of the very few to command its own domain name!
