We came to Lake Placid for a wedding. It was a quick weekend visit. This house and the lakefront made our busy weekend slow down a bit. My family was able to enjoy time fishing and relaxing by the lake. It was a great visit!!! We will be returning!!

Great relaxing trip

I stayed here with my husband and baby during the holidays. The house was very clean and you could tell the hosts put a lot of thought into making the place comfortable. Really liked the open Florida room. We spent most of our time out there looking out at the lake. My husband enjoyed paddle boarding.

Cozy Place, Thoughtfully Appointed and Fun

Everything was clean, inviting and thoughtfully finished. The beds were comfortable, the main bath was luxurious and inviting. Everything needed for preparing meals was available in the beautiful kitchen. Nice surprises included a coffee bar and margarita machine. The back screened porch was great for gathering and playing games. The fishing poles and paddle boards added a nice touch since the lake is steps away. Communication was great, access was simple and everything worked as expected. Everyone enjoyed this neat house and we would definitely stay again.

Amazing Lake stay

We’ve stayed at many homes in Lake Placid over the last 10 years. This was one of our most favorites. You can tell Lisa is new to the short term rental game. Going above & beyond on all the little extras. All those little extras separate you from the others. My Kudos to you & your team Lisa!!!
