15 min to Whiteface Ski, Lake Views, walk-to-town in a Luxury Adirondack Retreat

Set commandingly across from Mirror Lake, guests enjoy front row seats to spectacular lake and southern Adirondack range views, combined with a sought after village location that is walking distance to Main street shops, restaurants and olympic venues.

A recent guest shared this message during their stay, "The house is beautiful and challenges our motivation to be outside." We totally get it, happens to us too. Lake gazing never gets old!

Ample in scale, yet comfortable and inviting, this is a great spot to relax, unwind and reconnect with friends and family. Greystone Lodge features two stone fireplaces, an open floor plan, abundant natural light and exceptional living spaces for family and friends. A gourmet kitchen is complemented by a formal dining table with seating for 8 while the 5 furnished outdoor areas provide multiple opportunities for gathering. 4 BR, 4.5 BA, 5 furnished outdoor spaces, 4 car parking including heated garage with EV charger. 15 minutes to Whiteface Ski.

4 spacious and well appointed bedrooms:
1. Main floor Suite (king) includes a custom fireplace, walk in closet, private screened porch and full bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub and a walk in shower with separately controlled dual shower heads. Many of our reservations are for just one couple and this main floor suite is such a relaxing space. We really feel like we are 'away' when we are up here.


2 & 3. The second floor features two beautiful guest suites (queen bed), each with a generously sized walk in closet (built in shelving, ample hanging space and hangers) and an ensuite full bathroom. Private from each other and the rest of the home. The 2nd floor loft lounge area and balcony, combined with these bedrooms makes for a really lovely space for guests.

4. Lower level bunk room is huge and boasts three bunks (each is a twin over full bed) with an adjacent full bath.

These are 4 real bedrooms, not just a space with a bed added.

And more: There is a mountain of pillows to choose from (two for each bed plus extras), high end linens and each bedroom has its own sitting area, thermostat  (radiant in floor heating), room darkening shades or blinds and two full size dressers in addition to closets making for a comfortable and effortless travel experience.

Entertain friends and family: loft living room with lounge & balcony and loads of board games & puzzles; main floor living room with TV, fireplace, abundant seating, beautiful views; and a lower level family room equipped with game rooms  (ping pong, pool table, foosball) and a movie/game console lounge space. Host your own tournament of champions or a relaxing movie night with popcorn. 5 furnished outdoor spaces with views of beautiful Mirror Lake offer a perfect place to relax after a day of telecommuting or a rigorous day of outdoor activity.

Ideal for a luxury break, Greystone Lodge is convenient to 4-Seasons of outdoor activities and is a great location for family friendly day trips, beautiful scenic drives and is an easy walk to local shops & restaurants, or enjoy one of our favorites, relax with the view.   In the winter, you are steps away from walking right onto Mirror Lake for some winter wonderland adventure and in the summer grab one of our lake floats and head to the sandy beach or pop in along the way. 15 minutes to Whiteface ski and walking distance to Olympic oval & rinks.

The kitchen is well stocked for baking, grilling and family meal prep and includes a 6 burner gas stove with two ovens, an island that seats 5, and an adjacent screened porch with a propane grill and outdoor dining area. A coffee break couldn't be easier, chose from an espresso pot, french press, drip coffee maker or a keurig machine. We cook, bake and grill A LOT and love that we have space for multiple chefs and can comfortably entertain family and friends while whipping up a meal. A large 8 seat dining area completes the main level.

Got Gear? Winter gear? Summer gear? Our heated garage is the unsung essential amenity for an ADK winter. EV charging available. Take advantage like a group of NCAA skiers who set up their ski-tuning operation in the garage or like a group of outdoor enthusiasts traveling with 6 custom bikes, 4 bulky golf bags and one sportsman's lifetime collection of fishing gear, all stashed and staged securely and conveniently, allowing our guests to come and go easily between activities.

Our home away from home is fully furnished and equipped with more than just the essentials to make this a great getaway for family and friends. A few of the welcome extras include: waffle maker, spice drawer, grill w/propane, kitchen-aid mixer & baking pans, loads of board games & puzzles, picnic basket & beach towels, Sonos speakers & Lutron lighting, shampoo, conditioner, body wash & hair dryer in each full bath. All beds dressed and ready to go making for an effortless stay in beautiful Lake Placid.

Late Fall Adult Getaway
Spacious, well-designed home with inviting indoor and outdoor living areas. The kitchen is well-stocked, highly organized, and spotlessly clean, with appliances, cookware, and dishes all in excellent condition. The games room added a lot of fun to our stay, featuring foosball, ping pong, billiards, and darts. For those needing to work remotely, the desk setup was highly functional. Conveniently located near town and local activities, this home provided the perfect base for our family trip. The owner was exceptionally responsive both before and during our stay, quickly addressing any questions we had. We highly recommend this home for a memorable stay!

Fantastic property for our family trip. Seamless experience from top to bottom, extremely satisfied with our choice. Greystone is a stunning Adirondack home, inside and out. We loved the style and architecture, made our trip more special. Great value for our family, extensive amenities and games, a very well stocked and outfitted kitchen and comfortable places to hang out together. Set the bar for future VRBos. Responsive, helpful, and flexible host. Thank you for a memorable family trip. Highly recommend staying here. Kids and adults loved Greystone and were sorry to leave.

Our stay at the Greystone lodge was incredible. The weather over the weekend was not great, but thankfully the place is so beautiful that just staying there is a perfect vacation. The photos do not do this place justice and it was everything we wanted and more! The location is also perfect and a quick walk from anything you need. Beautiful views of Mirror Lake. Would definitely come back!

Exceptional Stay!
We were blown away by how well this home suited our needs. As a group of unrelated couples there was apprehension about selecting a home rental for our annual friends reunion. While the description is accurate, it wasn’t readily obvious how private each bedroom is. Fantastic bedroom suites offered privacy, space, comfort and no bathroom sharing. Everyone relaxed and slept well. Early risers and night owls all co-existed in harmony. The many sitting areas were wonderful for our group and we appreciated that all of us were able to gather in the kitchen, living room, dining table. We all remarked on the beautiful view and location. Amenities, cleanliness, check in and out all contributed to a great experience. While we didn’t have children with us for this trip, it seems like a great home for kids too and in fact one of the couples rented for a family trip in January that includes children. That says it all! Thank you for a great trip.

Celebrating parents’ 50th wedding anniversary
It has been such an absolute pleasure since the very start of my communication about the beautiful Greystone lodge. We wanted a special home to gather and celebrate my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary and this home was just perfect for us (3 couples, 3 kiddos and one spoiled dog). Dates for our stay were accommodating and every question was answered in such very nice, professional manner. The home is just stunning- it has a beautiful interior in addition to being a great location, within walking distance of the village. We truly enjoyed our visit and thank you for sharing your home with us!! You are fantastic hosts.

Best House, Best Location! ❤️ Adirondacks
This is an amazing property. There is not one thing I can think of as a recommendation/suggestion. The furniture (both indoor and outdoor) is top-quality and comfortable. All of the bedding is exactly what you would expect in your own home, quality and comfortable. The kitchen has everything you think you will need. The game rooms and covered/screened in porches helped to pass the time on a rainy afternoon. On nice days, the views are amazing and the walk around mirror lake is charming. We walked most of the time, as everything is so accessible. Great roads, trails to walk your dog if you bring one. The owners were responsive to questions and accommodating. We hope to return in the winter for skiing! Thank You!

Exceeded expectations, our best VRBO experience. We felt welcome from moment we walked in, easy check in & out. Well organized home, had what we needed and more. Beautiful and grand, nicely decorated with comfy spots to relax. Our active and inactive family members all thoroughly enjoyed our time in Lake Placid and this home absolutely met our needs and much more, made the trip for us! Weather allowed us to do a lot of walking and this location was ideal plus a beautiful view. Spent a few ski days at Whiteface - we skied above mid mountain the whole time and had a great time. I totally enjoyed the jacuzzi tub in the main floor suite after skiing. We all loved the fireplace and had a great time soaking up the Adirondack vibe with a glass of wine, felt like a special getaway, had a fun family ping pong tournament too. Would love to return when Mirror Lake is iced over, the only bummer was we missed this and would love to return to Greystone for more winter fun. Absolutely recommend. Owners were great with info that helped us plan our trip. Thank you for a great time!
