To Christmas & Associates - 

We are very pleased with our purchase from Christmas & Associates. Our initial phone call was with Chad and he was always able to answer our questions or got an answer quickly. Nikole was able to get us an accurate estimate of our closing costs. And you walked us through our closing and again answered all our questions. I would have to say overall it was a very good experience and would definitely recommend your services to others.

Thank you, Joseph & Rose Alo



Fell in love with this group! They are quick, knowledgeable, and do soup to nuts. Anytime we buy property moving forward we will be going to them. So much easier and faster than our other experiences. Thank you, Christmas and Associates - you helped make Cristiano Conservancy happen with 12 acres of protected land!

Dear Christmas & Associates,

My wife and I were looking for a property that was in the Adirondacks and convenient to us and our family. This was our first experience buying land and we had many questions. Not only did we receive answers to those questions, but we found that Mike Quinn also followed through and delivered everything that he said he would. He also knew that he needed to find out about what our needs and interests are when we think about a family camp. He took the time to align our interests with what he found out about us in conversation.

Mike managed to find an ideal spot for us. He answered each question honestly and in a way that convinced us that he has experience and knowledge that many others do not have. He took the time to tour our land with us, twice, in the middle of winter with snow and sleet coming down. He was able to point out what he was talking about with us as we toured the property.

Even after the closing, we felt like Christmas & Associates will always be there to help us if we need them. We would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone.

Best Regards, Peter G.



Very knowledgeable, and helpful staff. Looked at multiple properties and when the time came to buy it was easy and flawless. Would 100% do business with the team at Christmas again.

Dear Christmas & Associates,

We cannot begin to tell you how very pleased we have been from the beginning.

Your land guide, Mike, responded to our inquiry very quickly and even though that deal was not to be, within a few days we again heard from Mike with other opportunities. This frankly surprised us as we thought everything had gone to the wind. We decided on 2 properties to look at but after seeing the first we knew we didn't have to see the other as we found exactly what we were looking for. Mike knows how to find what the consumer is looking for just by conversing with them.

We have not yet met Dan but are so excited about the new camp and are looking forward to watching as our camp is built. Christmas and Associates has put incredible packages out there and we are very happy to have been able to find just the one we wanted.

Thank all of the people who have helped along the way.

We recently purchased a piece of property from Christmas. I was pleased with all the staff as they always answered my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. I would highly recommend this company for your property needs.

Highly recommend buying land and cabin from Christmas! I met Mike up at the property during winter. He had an extra pair of snow shoes for me to walk the property. No pressure. Just thinking of all the possibilities. Called him back in a few days and was ready to sign the contract. already went to closing and paid the land, then in a few months I’ll pay the cabin off when they start building. Can’t wait for that part! Great company!

To Christmas & Associates -

Dan was awesome! He spent two days with us showing us different properties and the areas surrounding them. His knowledge of the area is priceless! After an hour with him, I thought I had known him as a friend for 20 years with ZERO PRESSURE. Thank you for all that you did for us to make a lifelong dream come true!

Last week I closed on a property and was very impressed and pleased with Chad's level of expertise and professionalism. He was extremely knowledgeable about property features and provided valuable information that made the process relatively easy. I am very pleased with the outcome.

Dear Christmas & Associates,

Christmas & Associates were very patient with us. We have been looking for the right land for a few years. The whole process was convenient and enjoyable. Thank you, Chad and everyone else who assisted us during this journey.

Dear Christmas & Associates,

My family and I would like to express our sincere appreciation on the way your company treated us in the purchase of our wilderness properties and Hemlock hunting lodge. We found dealing with Mr. Dan Christmas, Marc Christmas and your other people to be a humbling experience. We were treated with respect, courtesy and your staff was very knowledgeable and professional in taking us through the process. They found us the perfect hunting and family compound and property with stream that we were after.

All our questions were addressed in a timely manner and the contract to closing process was pain-free. It is a pleasure dealing with your company and I would not have a problem in recommending it to anyone!!

In today’s world, it is truly surprising to find a company of your caliber.
Your prices are fair and competitive and to me and my family your company is honorable!!!! We shook hands, and after that, no terms of our agreement changed, which is why I purchased an additional 3 properties from you. Please enjoy the attached photos of my family and I at our lodge.

Very truly yours, Brian Lynch and Family



Dear Christmas & Associates,

Kathy and I have been very impressed to this point. (We are bursting at the seams waiting for the call from the builder for the next phase!) with every step we’ve taken so far.

I first saw ads in several of my hunting magazines and went on the website to look. I e-mailed the link and Chad called me within an hour or so. Within two days we were walking different parcels with him. (Note to his boss: he kept our appointment even after being in a car accident on the way to meet us - Good Man!)

We picked out # 8 in the Lyonsdale tract, mapped out a driveway, chose a cabin type and location, orientation, signed papers - all in a matter of a couple hours. It didn’t take long before we were back in touch with Chad and added parcel #9 to the mix.

We wanted to close on Dec. 26th and early in the morning so we could go to our new property and you guys made it happen without a hitch. Chad can’t always pick up the phone when I call but he calls back very quickly and he always gets us an answer. We also liked how you have every parcel surveyed and the boundaries are so well marked. It makes it so easy to see exactly what you are getting.

I will highly recommend Christmas and Associates to other people.

Thank you very much, Greg Lessord



To everyone at Christmas & Associates,

We wish you the best at the holidays and all year. We have enjoyed our land tremendously all year. We are building a 20 x 24 camp, 1/8 mile into the woods. We hunted the area during deer season and saw a lot - but didn't get one.

Thank you for the excellent finish job on our road and the late-season touch-up. It was worth waiting to have it so good!

Sincerely, Bronwyn Sehn Larry Burt



Dear Dan,

I wanted to let you know how much I enjoy and appreciate my camp situated on the land I purchased from you several years ago. As you know, my work required me to relocate shortly after acquiring the property, so it is really nice to have a place to stay when I get back to hunt in NY, especially now that I live way down here in Alabama.

Now that I am retired, I will be able to spend a lot more time up there without having to rush back to work after an all too brief vacation. Even better, my son Steve, lives about an hour away from camp and now we will be able to hunt together more than for a just few days every year. It means a lot to me to do that and to know that he will use and appreciate the property long after my hunting days are over.

I am sending along pictures of the bucks I killed in the area near camp the last two seasons. Steve and I hunt on the 19 acres we own, on nearby State Land and on a large hunting club lease where we are members. Most clubs in the Adirondack area have an aging membership base; consequently, they are frequently looking for new members to replace the ones who finally give up hunting, so there are more opportunities available if we ever decide we need more area to hunt.

We have taken deer in most years of the decade that has passed since acquiring the land, but as we have become more familiar with the area, our success rate has improved. We have each taken nice bucks the last two seasons and often pass up opportunities on smaller bucks. While I have been happy to take the deer in the photos, Steve and I have both caught glimpses of a couple of really impressive bucks which are woods wise and wary (as well as smarter than we are) so they are still wandering the woods behind camp, waiting to tease us again next season.

You have no doubt felt a great deal of satisfaction knowing that your company has been able to provide a lot of folks like me the opportunity to have an affordable place to enjoy the outdoors. My camp is small and simple but is one of the things in my life that I truly treasure. Thanks again for helping me find and own this ideal spot.

Sincerely, Phil Nowell



Dear Mr. Christmas,

We are writing to you to say "Thank you" for honoring your word. There are not many people today that will stand behind what they sell as you have done. Doing business with you and all of your employees was a very pleasant experience and we would not hesitate to purchase land from Christmas and Associates in the future. We will highly recommend Christmas and Associates to others.

Thank you again. Sincerely, D. & S. Hamilton



Our experience with Christmas & Associates we very good. They answered our questions promptly and went above and beyond with showing us our property. When we purchased our property, the process was very organized and easy. We highly recommend them for your next land purchase need.
