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!

Great house and Great Location!
This is the second time my family rented this house. It is within walking distance to Main Street. The house has a cozy feel. The hot tub is always a plus. Patrica is very responsive and friendly. Looking forward to a third trip in the future!

2023-2024 New Years Getaway
Overall the property was a excellent stay. Close to Main Street (short walk). House was very clean. Hot water for showers for 10 people was a problem. Only a few could take shower at a time. Also, could have used a second TV.

Weekend Trip to LP
We had a great weekend with our friends, including four kids ages 12-15. There was plenty to do in the home and in the village, all in walking distance. Another great weekend here- our 3rd time at this property! Thank you.
