What an Awesome, Adventurous Vacation! This was a great, private, beautiful spot nestled in the Adirondack's! It was located on an incredibly gorgeous cycling route that was so convenient for my boyfriend and I to hop on to. There were unbelieving scenic hiking trails near the lodge. We even hiked Whiteface, which was only about 10-15 minutes away. The unit of the lodge was so nice! It had the best of everything! We had such an amazing stay and getaway!

The lodging is 13 minutes to the Whiteface Lodge (door to sitting in lodge). Which is perfect for the athletes to prepare before the race, and decompress after the race. The owners of this lodge are the BEST, and helped us in our time of need with some last minute things. For a small group of elite athletes this was perfect!!! ##### Johnny W.

The rental spaces were immaculately clean, and very comfortable. We truly felt like we were at home away from home. The surrounding area is breathtaking with mountain views, tranquil forests and the cleanest air. The owners are very accommodating and even gave us fresh organic eggs. The property has acres and acres of gorgeous forests and trails to explore. I would highly recommend this property to families or anyone who wants to explore the area. ##### Joanna S.

Though we rented the main apartment and the efficiency, we probably could have all stayed in the main unit comfortably. The decor was both elegant and cozy, and we had all the amenities needed. Joanna was easy to work with and provided good recommendations for the area. There are nice places to walk on the property itself, and it is close to many of the Adirondack attractions. We also recommend her sister "Rosalia's" restaurant, just down the road and delicious! ##### Dawn T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha M.

Bedrooms were very comfortable. We had an issue with the Internet one evening and Joanne took care of it right away. She is a wonderful host and even brought us some fresh baked blueberry muffins! Short distance to Saranac and Lake Placid villages. Quiet and peaceful area. Joanne has beautiful flower gardens all around the property. We were lucky enough to see a fawn from the balcony almost every morning of our stay. Love it here! ##### Samantha M. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colleen T.

Nice to have separate spaces for our 3 groups to have their own space. Very comfortable beds. Perfectly decorated. Joanna was very friendly and helpful. Shared veggies and herbs from her garden that we used in our dinner Saturday night. Made us muffins, which we thoroughly enjoyed for breakfast. Location was perfect for us to explore the beauty around us and close to my sons job at Ausable Chasm. Close to necessities we might have forgotten. Great fridges for all of our food.

It was so clean, beautifully decorated and had that rustic, ski cabin kind of feel. My son is on the freestyle ski team at Stratton Mt in VT and we had a competition at Whiteface from Thursday-Sunday for the Empire State Winter Games. Being able to stay at this gorgeous home for that time made our trip so easy and enjoyable. Only about 12 minutes from Whiteface and about 25 minutes from Lake Placid. We were able to enjoy evenings out where we had dinner at some of the great restaurants in Lake Placid and then toured the Olympic museum and were able to watch some of the amazing athletes compete in different sports in the Olympic complex! What a wonderful experience. The Adirondacks are absolutely breathtaking and we had the best time. Thank you, Joanna for opening up your beautiful home to us and to our pup 😃. We created beautiful memories that we will treasure forever! ##### Jennifer S.

Apr 10, 2013 #### Winter Wonderland Christmastime visit My family (couple and two teenage sons) are from S. FL and seek 'white Christmas' venues during our yearly school winter breaks. The Heartsong retreat's fully equipped accomodations are in nearly new (new around 2011) condition - nicely furnished/appointed. The location is within a short drive to myriad destinations one would seek in their quest of an Andirondack experience; from small town (Jay) eateries, shops, pubs, covered bridge, to nearby Lake Placid (itself a teeming lake and mountain town). We plan to return in the very popular Summer season, as our winter stay's enjoyment was beyond expectations. The owner's couldn't have been more helpful in their activity recommendations/accomodations. Lake Champlain & nearby Vermont and Montreal, CAN, are a few other excusions we plan to experience on our next Heartsong Retreat visit. As Robert Siskel would opine,"a BIG Thumbs Up" on this memorable Andirondack experience! ##### Craig S.

My husband took me there, along with our family, for my 60th Birthday. I was not disappointed. The property was magical. We rented out the bottom of the main house and the carriage house. The bottom of the main house has 2 bedrooms and a nice size bathroom. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you will need. We took most of our meals in the main house and there was plenty of room for 10 people. The Carriage House is adorable. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs with a great kitchen. Once again with everything you need. There is also a very nice bathroom with a great shower. On the lower level is a very cute studio apartment with small kitchenette and full bath. The quality of the workmanship thru out the property is very high quality. REALLY comfortable. There was also a huge fire pit where we were able to have a fire while we sat around on the big rocks telling tales. Perfect. Joanna, Peter and Romeo (the Dog) could not have been more accommodating. I can't wait to go back. ##### Mary G.

I was expecting the classic Ski Mountain Lodging. I was very surprised to find a very large comfortable unit that I could easily live in year round. Amenities were much better than I expected. The kitchen was full size kitchen with granite top counter/island. Full size stove, dishwasher and laundry room. These people who run this place have found a lot of cool stuff to decorate the place. I believe it takes creative design talent to figure out accumulating and placement of nostalgic stuff from the past. The pictures on their website seems smaller than the actual living space. The bedrooms were spacious. Love the Bathroom. Very nice 10 acre property. We had a Birthday party with our group and it was a lot of fun. There were Deer by the pond at the end of the driveway when we arrived there. There is a covered bridge down the road a short walk. The beautiful rivers and country setting, mountain views from the property are amazing. We went to Montreal Canada for the day 45 minutes to 1hour away I would highly recommend this place to any of my friends. Writing reviews is generally not my cup of tea but thought I would give this a 2 thumbs up and will plan to go back again.

Feb 21, 2017 #### The property is beautiful and very clean however the pictures leave the wrong impression We are a family of 15 and spent three days over the Presidents Day weekend at this property. While there is ample room , well equipped , and very clean, the pictures create the impression that you will be renting the entire house . In reality you are in a basement apartment with a separate garage converted to guest house, with the owners living in the main house above. A big problem we encountered with this set up was the owners have large dogs living upstairs (and obviously the basement apartment when not rented). My 14 year old Grandson has severe asthma and is extremely allergic to dogs. Within one hour of our arrival he had an asthma attack . He could not be in the basement apartment at all the entire three days. This let us with either all squeezing into the very small garage apartment for meals , games and just being together, or leaving him alone in the garage apartment. The other really big issue was the property is Covered in dog Poop . The kids playing in the snow building a snow man came in covered in dog poop. Just getting into the cars meant the kids would be dragging it into our cars on their feet. The pictures also show a laundry room. On arrival the owners daughter told us because we would only be there 3 days we shouldn't need it but if we did let her know and they would unlock it. Even with the issues we encountered it is a beautiful property. I just wish we were more prepared up front & could have made a better decision for our family. ##### Cathy L.
