Welcome to Partridge Park, a truly exceptional property located in the Adirondack Mountains. This remarkable estate boasts over 1,300 acres of pristine private forest and features more than 5,000 feet of frontage along the Deer River. Nestled within its expansive grounds are captivating natural features, including the picturesque 6-acre, 25-foot-deep Lake Florence, as well as several secluded ponds that add to its serene charm. Partridge Park's legacy is rich and storied, dating back to the late 1800s. In the 1920s, Charles E. Bedford, a partner of John D. Rockefeller at Standard Oil Co., took ownership and further enhanced the estate. Notable improvements included the development of the Lake Florence dam's waterfalls, which once powered numerous buildings. In the the 1940s Partridge Park was transformed into a children's camp which instilled the love of the outdoors in countless young people.
Today, the newly constructed lodge is testament to its remarkable past exuding the timeless warmth and style of the Adirondacks. The approach to the compound is a treat in and of itself, as you journey through the historic gates and down the three-mile meticulously manicured roads, providing abundant wildlife viewing. The lodge, designed with meticulous attention to detail, offers an unparalleled experience for its guests with over 10,000 square feet of living space and includes 12 bedrooms, 12 full baths, including a fully equipped bar, elevator, game room, dining area, hot tub, and an inviting outdoor covered porch that treats you to sweeping views of the lake and mountains.
A remote trapper's cabin, guest cottage, shooting trap range, large dining pavilion and lakeside gazebo contributes to the property's allure. Whether you seek a lifetime of tranquility or a place to host and entertain Partridge Park stands as one of the most extraordinary offerings ever presented in the North East.
