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!

Nice House - Close to All in Lake Placid
Our stay was very pleasant. The house is very well situated in Lake Placid, close to all. It was very clean and well equipped. Has a charming front porch to sit and rock on. My only comment would be that the upstairs claw foot tub is a little difficult to shower in due to its lack of grab bars or anything else to steady yourself on climbing in and out. Perhaps not the best option for the elderly or mobility impaired however, there is a more accessible shower stall in the basement if need be. Overall a very nice place. Upon arrival the house appears very dark and dreary but if you pull up the shades, blinds and shutters more light will brighten up the space. I guess they keep it closed up for security purposes. The beds were very comfortable to use and there’s an abundance of pillows to use. It’s about a ten minute walk to the center of downtown. In town, parking is often scarce so when practical, walk. We weren’t there long enough to use the hot tub or rec room in the basement but they looked nice too. Ditto the washer/dryer. I thought it was a very good value for the money and the instructions for arriving and departing clear. There’s also a 24/7 emergency number in case something goes wrong.
