This was one of the best rental properties we’ve found anywhere! The location close to town was amazing, and the property itself was beautiful and so comfortable for our family of 4. We would choose to stay here again with another family (could comfortably host up to 10), and any time of year. It would also be wonderful in spring/fall using the fire pit, and the hot tub is wonderful any time of year! (Even in July when temperatures overnight drop to 50). Wonderful property and hosts.

Wonderful and spacious house! Very close to Main Street. Very comfortable beds and super clean place! Host was quick and responsive when I asked where the coffee filters were (in a cupboard I didn’t look in lol). The kitchen has everything. We rented Stand Up Paddle Boards from Locker Room 5,…highly recommend! Would only recommend a/c downstairs (bedrooms have window units which worked well)

Charming Stay in Lake Placid

Well located home, short walk to Main Street and less than 15 min walk to Mirror Lake Beach. There’s a very convenient playground less than half a block from the house for the kids, and the front yard is totally fenced in too. The house was very clean, but there are some spaces that could use some updating. Overall, a sweet home that had everything four adults and five kids needed! Oh and towels were provided which is a nice plus!

Great place and location

We had a great time on our girls golf trip here. Walking distance to the restaurants, bars, and shops on Main Street. Great outdoor area. It was chilly, so we spent a lot of time outside by the fireplace. Nice neighborhood. Basement had ping pon and foosball, so we got into that as well. Basement smelled a little musty, but it’s a basement so not a big deal!! Really great spot and perfect for our 8 person group! Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful house, great location

My group of six adults fit very easily in this house. The location is perfect. It is a quick walk to main Street and the lake. The grocery store is right around the corner. There is comfortable seating and sleeping options for all. The communication with the owner/manager was easy and instructions were clear. Thanks for a great stay!

We had high expectations

The game room is not as it appears in the description. It's a very small room with a futon and a Foosball table, no tv and very cold. Air hockey was fine ping-pong was a table top that goes over the air hockey game There is also only 1 tv in the entire house.

Birthday weekend getaway

Great house in a fantastic location! We walked all over the town of Lake Placid - it was nice not having to drive everywhere. There were 6 of us and we had plenty of room in the house and the beds were comfy! We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, on the deck and porch and the game room was fun! Would definitely stay again!!!

Home base for UCI bike race at Van Hoevenberg

Great place for family weekend getaway. Highlights: Super easy walk to Main St through the park and down a paved path. Large space w basement activities for kids. Hot tub was a treat. We didn’t have a fire, but was all set up if you wanted one. Plenty of comfy beds, nice kitchen, and everything was clean. Lowlights: not many, but if I had to pick one it was Showering. The clawfoot tub upstairs was a PITA, high step to get into tub is a fall risk, not much room w hanging curtain, valve didn’t work well and if you’re not careful water can spray everywhere. Basement shower worked better but was a bit dingy and, well, in the basement. Still recommend this place despite the shower situation. Just wanted to give owner some constructive feedback.

One of our favorite weeks of the year!

We have been staying at Tim and Patricia's adorable house for the last 3 years. It's always clean and the check in process is seamless. This year we needed help with the TV (for the Olympics) and Tim was super helpful and responded to us right away. The location can't be beat which is why we keep coming back every year!

Great location, very comfortable home!

We loved our stay in Lake Placid to see the Total Solar Eclipse! We had been looking forward to the trip for a year, and were very happy with this home - it was very comfortable for our family that included an infant and a toddler, as well as 8 adults. There was plenty of room for us to all have the space we needed. We especially loved the wood stove in the living room, and the backyard was great to play in the snow. It was just a short walk to town, so close a 3-year old could walk herself (although the hills are fairly steep!). Our family has rented many homes in the ADKs over the last 30+ years and loved this one - it was especially clean and comfortable. Thank you!
