Photos and Description of the Lake Placid vacation house rental 6 Bedrooms + Sunroom - 4 Baths - (Sleeps 10-14)

This unique Lake Placid, Adirondack style home was built in 1915 as a year round home for a well-to-do family and shows it in the detail and quality of construction. Over the years it has been thoughtfully maintained and upgraded, while retaining virtually all of the original charm of a house of that era. As with many homes built in the early 1900's, it has many little nooks and cranies where you can grab some quiet time with a good book. It was purpose built to be a large comfortable Adirondack home for a large family and still is. Details such as beautiful wood railings, built in book cases, a beamed ceiling in dining and living rooms and even skeleton key locks that work on many doors are all part of the experience. At the same time, upgrades, such as a new, large master bath and enclosing the wrap around rear porch have expanded the living area and comfort of this home. Your favorite quiet breakfast spot will be in a corner of that porch surrounded by windows.

Lots of room, very nice home!

Ladies Weekend Brockville, Ontario
Review Submitted: November 20, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2008
14 of us stayed in this beautiful home for our annual ladies weekend. It was very comfortable, well stocked with needed items, and a perfect location for shopping excursions! Only one block up from the main street in Lake Placid. It sleeps 14 comfortably and the four bathrooms are perfect for large groups. The experience with the owner from booking, answering questions and meeting our needs were met quickly and in a friendly manner. There were signs with explanations of everything we needed to know regarding the house. The back porch is nice, large and the hot tub is a good size for a group. There were no surprises, everything went just as planned and promised. I would recommend this property with no hesitation, it would be especially nice for large families and groups as it is big enough to accomodate everyone but also big enough to give you some private space if you want to have some quiet time.
Owner's Response: We enjoy the house immensely and work very hard to make it comfortable for our guests. Knowing groups like this one appreciate the house and our efforts gives us a great deal of satisfaction.

This house is beautiful as well as comfortable.I came up to Lake Placid with 6 kids and 7 adults and there were enough rooms for everyone. This is a great place to visit and get away from it all and still be New York.

My husband and I stayed at Hillcrest Haven house at end of Feb and had a wonderful time. Joining us were eight other relatives, and the house comfortably accommodated the group. It's in a great location - walkable to town. The house is also nicely apointed. We enjoyed sitting by the fireplace late afternoons. I would definitely recommend staying here and plan on a return visit.

Hillcrest Haven is truly a haven for a Lake Placid enthusiasts. Its proximity to town and to sporting events and venues is a real plus, but the best part is staying in a well cared for, well-equipped home - complete with helpful instructions on how to operate everything. The Adirondack style furnishings, the solid architecture, and of course, the hot tub on the deck make for a relaxing "home base" when you're away from home. The DiMartinos do a wonderful job ensuring you have a great visit!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Lake Placid Hillcrest Haven. There was plenty of room for our group of 13, I loved the close proximity to Lake Placid (1 block), the character of the house with all it's little sitting areas, and especially enjoyed the hot tub. It was also only 15 mins from White Face for skiing. I'd highly recommend this charming house to anyone considering a vacation in beautiful Lake Placid.
