Timeless Lakefront Camp Transformed Into a Sumptuous Family Retreat
A New Jersey-based family turned to Teakwood Builders to transform their early 1900s lakefront camp on the Adirondacks into a luxurious family retreat. Collaborating with the homeowners and Balzer & Tuck Architecture, Teakwood created a custom renovation that preserves the historic character of the property while introducing modern luxury features and a more open floor plan.
The redesigned home includes a spacious gourmet kitchen with built-in banquette seating, multiple guest suites with private walk-out porches, and a primary suite that combines comfort with elegance. Natural woods, locally sourced stone, reclaimed timbers, and vintage tile were used throughout, honoring the Adirondack aesthetic. This lakefront renovation provides the perfect balance of historic charm and contemporary luxury for family living and entertaining in upstate New York.
