About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A lovely place to relax and enjoy the High Peaks

The neighborhood is called Ausable Acres where each home is separated from its neighbors by trees thereby offering considerable privacy. The Acres has a lake, miles of trails for hiking or cross-country skiing and a picnic pavilion area. For fisherpersons, there is access to the Ausable river less than two miles away. Within three miles is a Top’s Supermarket, Stewart’s Gas and Convenience store, movie theatre, pizzeria and liquor store.
The interior of the cabin is constructed with tongue and groove knotty pine throughout. The bedroom has a new queen size log bed. The bathroom is newly remodeled. There is a sitting area with a wood stove, kitchen, dining area, a desk with ample room for writing in your journal or laptop and an area with comfy chairs for just relaxing. The home has a three-zone electric heating system, so a wood fire is optional. There are two USB charging stations and high-speed internet. The kitchen has an electric cooktop, oven, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker, electric tea kettle, dishes and lots of cookware that allow our guests to prepare a home cooked meal or breakfast. In warmer months enjoy relaxing on the front porch or cooking on the gas grill in the side yard which also has a picnic table.
Our cabin is designed for one or two guests. Absolutely no pets are allowed. The loft is not accessible. Please note that neighborhood has a 10pm quiet rule.

We have been going to the Adirondack for a long time but never explored Jay area. This cabin was easy access, in a lovely neighbourhood. Once in, we felt welcome by the warmth of the decor, cleanliness and a well set kitchen. Thank you for the wonderfull time!

Cabin is located in a prime spot, 15-45 minutes from awesome hikes, excellent eats, tourist attractions, historic landmarks, lakes, river, galleries, libraries, Vermont; and it's tucked almost 3 miles off the beaten path. Night sky during new moon should not be missed. We drove out to main road at 1:00 a.m. to see the rest of the sky and more shooting stars.

Very clean and beautiful cabin!
The cabin itself was nice, very clean, and had all the amenities I needed to cook dinners and enjoy time by myself. The owners were accommodating and responded quickly to messages. They even mailed an item I accidentally left behind without hesitation! I would absolutely stay here again!

Great little getaway!
Was just what we needed to decompress and relax! Quiet neighborhood with plenty of space between properties to enjoy our own privacy. Cabin was very clean and had anything you could need in the kitchen as well as an array of books and games to sit on the porch and enjoy the outdoors. Owners were very polite and reached out to let us know if anything we needed to reach out. Highly recommended!

Forest stay
We had a great time at this location. The cabin was in a beautiful area. Travel time to small towns in the area and to Lake Placid was a half hour or less. The cabin itself was wonderful. We were extremely comfortable.

A lovely retreat in the Woods
The Cabin is charming and cozy. I especially loved the knotty pine interior. There was nothing lacking as far as supplies and necessities were plentiful. The furnishings are lovely and tasteful. At first we were nervous when we pulled into the driveway but were delighted as soon as we opened the door and walked into the front room with the wood burning stove. We felt right at home immediately!

Spotless and centrally located
The cabin was located on a quiet, little road, perfectly situated between hikes with amazing views and markets and restaurants. I’ve stayed at several rental properties that claim to be clean, but this one, was spotless. I look forward to returning one day!

Great place to stay if you're seeking a peaceful getaway. I used the space for a working vacation and meditative/contemplative retreat with excellent results. The amenities were fantastic and everything was in good working order. I strongly encourage you to give Old Crow a visit.

Great secluded cabin, close to Lake Placid.
We really enjoyed our weekend stay at The Old Crow cabin. Check in was super easy and although we never met the hosts, they were available if we needed them. We had just one question and Allan responded quickly. The cabin was clean and cozy and we loved the surroundings. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. We wanted for nothing. A few tips: There are only a few small restaurants in town and reservations are a must. Don’t rely on GPS when out and about because reception is spotty at best, although the cabin does have WiFi. Our weekend was so peaceful and just what we needed.

This beautiful cabin was a great place to spend a quiet week away. It was quiet, clean, and cozy. We enjoyed hiking throughout the area, as well as a little shopping and sightseeing. We were impressed with the cleanliness. It was exactly as indicated in the ad. We will definitely return. Loved it!
