Weekend Retreat

5 of 5
Submitted: March 26, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
We had a wonderful girls weekend getaway at this home. The home was lovingly cared for, warm, inviting and immaculate when we arrived. Had the weather been just a bit warmer, we would have also enjoyed the short walk into town. The view of the stream and woods out of the expansive windows was absolutely gorgeous and everyone in our group agreed we would happily return for another stay!

Wonderful

Submitted: March 26, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
Thank you so much for allowing us to use your wonderful chalet. The layout is amazing with a beautiful view of the stream through the trees made us dream of glade skiing all night. Not only were the beds the most comfortable VRBO mattresses we’ve had the pleasure of using the chalet, your chalet was wonderfully clean and equipped. We loved it!! I would give it a 9 out of 10. 10 = ski in and ski out.

Thank you again. We will be back!

Weekend Lake Placid Getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: February 26, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
This was a weekend trip from Syracuse to Lake Placid with 3 couples. House was perfect size for us. Actually had 2 more single beds, so could have accomadated 8. Each had own bathroom. Everything is new in house (bathroom, fridge, stove, dishwasher). Very convenient locationm less then 1 mile from Main St. Owners are very responsive, able to answer all questions. If you depend on a concierage when traveling, stay at a hotel. If you can find activies on your own, staying in a house is a more comfortable and economical alternative. I have been to Lake Placid many times, so we had an itinerary prior to arrival. Bottom line: comfortable, clean, modern / rustic balance, nice owners, good location, very affordable = GREAT VALUE.

The house was every bit as nice as it looked from the photos and description. We loved the location with its view over the creek and enjoyed watching the snow fall. Would stay there again!

So comfortable and clean!

5 of 5
Submitted: February 1, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
Our family and grandchildren stayed for 3 nights and days. The house was very comfortable, clean, and well-organized for guests! There was everything we could have needed, the bedrooms were good sizes, bathrooms were great. So quiet on the side street and the brook could be heard when you stood very still outside! The snow we had was perfect! Town was close by, maybe a 5 min drive. We would defnitely stay here again, and recommend it to others! (the only two negs would be: I missed not having a fireplace, and my daughter said the inside trash container should be larger/taller.) We had a wonderful time!!
