We decided last minute to take a mini vacation hiking near Lake Placid. GO Cottage was a perfect lodging choice for us. It was comfortable, clean quiet, and stocked with everything we could need. We spent most of our time hiking and visiting downtown . We couldn’t have asked for a more convenient and comfortable place to return to. We did cook dinner two nights and found the kitchen had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here when we come again.

Perfect Location & Dog Friendly

The location of this property is perfect for someone with dogs - walking distance to Mirror Lake and downtown restaurants but just far enough that you don't have to deal with parking and traffic issues that come up if you are actually downtown. The furnishings are tasteful and there is an enclosed yard so you can let your dogs out without worrying. There is a convenience store a block away that has all the essentials and the major grocery is a 4 mile drive away.

Super cute fully stocked cottage

We loved our time we spent at this cottage with our two dogs. First the yard is so nice - an oasis set back from the road, fully fenced in with beautiful towering pine trees in the front. Inside the hosts thoughtfulness of providing clean white bedsheets neatly folded on each bed and a dog biscuit so that our dogs could lay up on the bed brought a smile to both our faces. It is exactly what we do at home so I found this a wonderful surprise. The kitchen is well stocked - several coffee makers! I loved the setup of the place for us. The dining room table is really nice! The kitchen setup was easy for me to cook - loved the window which I had opened up when I was cooking. The entire experience reminded me of the cottages we use to stay in when I was little. Such character in this home. The bedrooms are such that french doors separate the two rooms with only being able to get to the one bedroom by walking thru the other room. For us this was fine as we kept the french doors open and used the two rooms as one big room. Actually was kind of nice that way. The smaller room with the king bed and the french doors open was cozy. I will say it probably is not ideal for two couples traveling together but definitely fine for families. Best linens on the beds and the bathroom!!!! We slept great. Great yard for our dogs. Great vacation.

Cute Cottage

In Lake Placid for a lacrosse tourney. Cottage was perfect location to a few great restaurants, The Corner Store, the lax fields and great hiking. Well maintained and nice appliances, fluffy towels and note/bottle of wine was nice touch upon arrival. The king bedroom is a walk through from the queen bedroom. Bathroom is small, but updated. Comfortable for 3 of us. Only 3 windows with screens that I could tell, but I am someone who prefers windows open and air flow, so it was a bit stuffy due to hot temps the days we were there. Fans throughout home and an air unit in queen bedroom. Overall would recommend and I’m sure beautiful in fall and winter. Sharon was helpful and responded promptly with any questions.

Great place to stay in lake placid

My husband and I just stayed here for our honeymoon and it was wonderful. The cottage is set back from the road which gives it great privacy. The cottage is only a few mins from the main strip of lake placid but it makes you feel like your secluded due to its location. The cottage was clean and had a very homey feel. In the bathroom there is an antique tub and shower which always had hot water. It rained several days while we were up there and we had no problem just enjoying the cottage. We never had a problem with internet connection throughout our stay. We have nothing bad to say about this place and plan on trying to book again. Highly recommend.

Charming, clean and perfectly sized!

My family of 5 and dog stayed in this great cottage tucked away from the main road for an extended weekend. It was incredibly clean, well-kept and roomy for all of us. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked and the yard though small, was perfect for lounging and allowing the dog to get some outdoor time. It was tastefully decorated -- enough so that it was warm and inviting but not at all overwhelming-- a must for small living. Coming from the NY Metropolitan area, the space seemed far larger and roomier than expected. It was located a short trek from the main street which is perfect if you want to avoid the crowds but still want the option of heading into town without inconvenience. There are numerous trails within walking distance of the cottage and a fantastic bistro just a stone's throw away. Overall, a fantastic get-away location. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Nice place, but not a great place.

My rating is 3.5 stars, but since that's not an option, I'm rounding up. Overall we had a good experience at Go Cottage. It's an older structure which has been updated in certain some ways giving it charm and it's pretty clean. It doesn't strike me as a home worthy of magazine features as mentioned on the web site. The property is well located with easy access to downtown and the many recreational activities in the area. It is on the main road, Rt. 73, but it is far enough up a driveway that you don't notice the traffic sounds. There are 2 units on the property, the cottage and an adjacent studio, so you may have a neighbor. Everything in the cottage is on the small side. It's hard to have more than 2 people at a time in the kitchen or bathroom (not that you'd want a group in the bathroom, but there is only 1). The "2 bedrooms" are separated by french doors with sheer curtains on them, and you have to walk through the first bedroom to get to the second. There's not too much privacy or sound filtering between the rooms. On the topic of privacy, all of the windows have sheer curtains and no shades to pull down. If the lights are on inside and you're standing outside, it's very easy to see everything going on inside the cottage. There is no real yard to speak of, a few pieces of furniture and fire pit in a very small fenced in area of fading grass and dirt. Sharon seems nice (we only communicated via email) and she's very careful to make sure that the cottage is treated properly by her guests. We arrived in the morning to hike, but check in wasn't until 3:00 and the housekeepers were going to be busy in the house prior to that. After some haggling back and forth, she allowed us to leave our luggage in her garage before we hit the trail head. I would recommend this property for a couple or small family. Two couples should only use it if they don't care about privacy.
