Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for Ironman weekend We were in town for the Lake Placid Ironman and this location was great for being close enough to activities and far enough away from crowded and crazy. It is remote and quiet. The space is nice, but could use some maintenance to fix window and exterior door issues. None of these issues affected our stay. The WiFi is not great in this area with minimal to no service except when inside the house. Also note that this property requires a separate insurance agreement for the rental of about 59 added to the cost of the stay. It is a great space for families with kids as the basement had a lot of entertainment options. It is damp and smelled musty but kids wouldn't care about that for sure!Overall, it was a nice space that was comfortable for our family. ##### Kelly S.

Mar 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Lovely Stay We had a very nice experience here at the chalet. Everything was clean and well maintained. The surrounding area was beautiful.One critical feedback item for the future… We stayed at the chalet in March, and the area was just starting to thaw from winter. I wish that the chalet had notified us that in order to get to the chalet, you have to traverse several dirt roads that were really muddy because of the rain / melting. We got stuck in the mud several times during our stay.My friends and I had a lot of trouble driving to the chalet in our four door sedans. I would definitely advise others to consider driving in larger vehicles if staying here during a season with any rain or melting snow. ##### Grace N.

Dana’s chalet was just right for the occasion. The kitchen was nicely stocked for our cooking adventures. Plenty of dishes for our crowd too. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Extra towels came in handy. The bedding and beds were very comfortable. The space was just right for us. Whiteface was 15-20 minutes and lake placid was 25 minutes or so. The skiing was excellent. The sauna was well used each day apres ski.Thank you Dana!We would visit again. ##### Liz J. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stacy S.

The kitchen is well stocked and the beds are comfortable. While the locks on the doors are unusual, if one follows the instructions they are easy to use. Like many Adirondack cabins, it does not have AC - we were pleased to find an oscillating fan in the upstairs closet. Between ceiling fans and the oscillating fan, we were quite comfortable. ##### Ruth S. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne L.

Such a fantastic trip to this secluded property. Everything was exactly as advertised and the owner was very communicative throughout the process. Highlights included walks down to the Au Sable River at the end of the street, the sauna!, the fire pit, and the basketball game in the basement. And the house was in a great location for easy trips into Jay to see the covered bridge, and also into Lake Placid for golf, Mirror Lake, and a pontoon boat ride. We would definitely come back! ##### Steve s. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gail T.

It was a wonderful and beautiful space with all the ameneties. Each couple had a bedroom and bathroom. The sauna was a big hit. As was the fireplace and firepit once the snow cleared. The beds were comfortable. The decorating details were not missed on us. Great loaction for our day trip to Lake Placid. And the finale was the perfect view of the Eclipse from the yard. Then BBQ'd and sat around the fire. It was the perfect day! Thank you for helping to make a fantastic event so memorable for our family. ##### Gail T. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Dec 2, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The house was nice for our family of 8\. We really enjoyed the sauna and the fireplace. The rec room downstairs was perfect for the kids to be loud and the adults could sit upstairs by the fire and talk or watch tv. Some improvements, however, could be made. The road was plowed before our arrival and it left a big hill of snow at the end of the driveway that we almost had to use 4-wheel drive to get into the driveway. There was no outside lights on the front of the house which made our late arrival a little difficult. We had to salt the steps and landing before we could even enter the house. The house was freezing upon our arrival and took almost 15 HOURS or so to heat up. The thermostat was deceiving by telling us it was 70 in the house when it felt like 60\. I would recommend if you are visiting in the winter months, ask that the furnace be turned on the day before your arrival. The doors were VERY drafty also. We used the fireplace to warm up. The bedrooms were warm if you kept the doors closed during the day. There were blankets for us to use while sitting on the couch which was nice. The wifi worked if you were at that end of the house. Maybe move it into the living room for better use of it. The tv in the living room took a long time to turn on. We thought it was broke at one point then it all of a sudden came on. Upgrading the tv's would be beneficial. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### marilyn m. Nov 27, 2018 #### Beutiful Chalet,, Some problems. The Chalet was beautiful and we had a terrific time, but there were some problems. First and foremost is what I consider a safety problem. There was wiring for smoke alarms, but many did not have any alarms connected to the wires. The wires were just hanging there. Next the handle on the main door kept on coming off and falling on the floor on the inside. We had to be very careful or we would not be able to get back in. When we arrived the toilets were dirty. Yuck!! The advertising was misleading.It was advertised for 8 people but in the ad it said 2 single beds in the loft and 2 convertible beds.In the loft there were only 2 convertible cots. One night we did have 10 people but no where for them to sleep except the sofas. It did say no Phones but failed to say also NO CELL reception. There was a house phone but it did not work. The game room in the lower level was very damp and not comfortable to use. As a result the pool tablet was warped so it was not usable. The day before we were to arrive I received instructions for the Chalet which was fine except we were told we had to wash and dry all the bed clothes and the towels,arrange the furniture properly, run the dishwasher (This I understand) and put all the dishes away and be out by 10AM. Being the toilets were dirty when we got there and we had to do the laundry, what did the cleaning fee pay for? I would only stay there again if these problems were taken care of ##### marilyn m. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Christine N., Queensbury, NY Mar 14, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Horrible Experience with the Property, the Host & VRBO This property should NEVER have been rented. The following REQUIRED safety features were NOT in place BEFORE we EVEN ARRIVED: 1) several entry level doors (main/bedroom doors with direct outside access) did not lock. The Host validated this IN WRITING via the VRBO portal, stating that she knew about this safety issue & it could NOT be fixed because the parts were on order and not yet received...so, she rented her home to us KNOWING this KEY SAFETY REQUIREMENT was NOT in place & chose NOT to tell us about it! 2) We opened several entry level windows only to find out they could not be closed; 3) there was spotty to no internet connection & the landline, which we successfully used to call the Host with our safety concerns, and received a call back from her on, suddenly STOPPED WORKING! Seriously, it was like a bad Halloween movie! 4) During the night, one of the smoke detectors started chirping... on our hunt to find the right smoke detector to disengage, we found several other smoke detectors completely disengaged with the battery door/connector hanging down! 5) We noticed upon arrival that the lock box was not only wide open, with the key visible and easily taken by anyone walking up to the house, but it was also set to the exact combination that the Host gave us to check in. While it didn't initially cause us major anxiety, given all the other safety issues & the remote location, it raised concerns as to how many other folks could access the house while we were in it! We communicated all of these issues immediately and on an ongoing basis that night and into the next morning with the Host via the VRBO portal (as mobile phones and landlines were not working). She became irate, stating that we were bombarding her with issue after issue & not giving her a chance to correct...at which point I made it clear we did not want to stay, to which she replied - IN WRITING via the VRBO portal - that she would not charge us for the night because of the MULTITUDE of SAFETY concerns we experienced. Please note we have photos and videos in support of all of these safety issues & 4 other professional women who are happy to share their personal experience. We were fortunate to find another VRBO Host in Lake Placid that had ZERO issues, safety or otherwise, and managed to finally relax & enjoy the remainder of our stay. I am disputing VRBO/the Host's refund of 56%, demanding their justification in keeping 46%, or $914, for an UNSAFE/UNACCEPTABLE 1 night stay. ##### Christine N.

Had a small issue with a running toilet but manager got right back to us on the issue. Walls are a bit thin when it came to noise control. But who doesn't like hearing laughter! Seeing Deer outside the house every morning was enjoyable. Game room was fun! Additional bath soaps and shampoos were a nice touch. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking.

If traveling in the winter, 4 wheel drive is a MUST and be ready to shovel. ##### charl w. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard B.

Lots of issues, the biggest included no water in the upstairs bathroom. A problem that wasn't fixed until our last day there. ##### Peggy T.

Once I chose the location I went to VRBO to find our home. I kept coming back to this property. I wanted a home that reflected the Adirondacks and was extremely pleased with my choice. Her home is nestled in the hills in Jay, NY. It was an incredible home. Beautifully decorated and Dana had everything we needed for our stay. Extremely pleased with my choice❤️ ##### Maureen C.

Private, very clean and well stocked with all the amenities. We would definitely stay here again. Dana was very attentive to any questions we had. ##### Michael G.
