Windsong Cabin is secluded on 8 wooded acres off Bonnie View Road in the town of Wilmington and is surrounded by a 6,000 acre state forest preserve. This 3-bedroom home is located 6 easy miles from Whiteface Mountain, the 5th highest of the 46 High Peaks at 4,867 feet, and the legendary Whiteface Mountain Olympic Ski Resort. A scenic drive of 16 miles along the banks of the West Branch of the AuSable River brings you to the village of Lake Placid, site of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympics and now a four season vacation favorite.

The cabin is so comfortable and well-maintained. It has everything you need to feel at home. It is also just private enough to feel like you're "away from it all" while still being convenient to all of the area's attractions. We would definitely visit again.

This is such a wonderful cabin. It is the cleanest rental that we have ever come across. It feels like home and the proximity to Whiteface skiing is great! The rental process is great and everyone is so nice. Anytime we visit the High Peaks region, this is where we love to stay.

We were in between seasons but had a wonderful time. The cabin has everything you would need to make your stay. A lot of attention to detail and VERY clean. It was great to get away.

Our second stay at Windsong was just as enjoyable as our first. We love this cabin and how comfortably and stylishly it is decorated; we love the setting, the deck, and the wild forest all around; and we love the easy drive to Whiteface's great skiing and the town of Lake Placid.
Our boys were so happy to be back here and to rediscover all the games that you keep stocked in the cabin (it really felt like a home away from home for us all), and we swear that Tilly (our black lab) could remember our old morning running route from our stay last year!
Many thanks Joe, Donna, Chris and Holly - we will be back...

Review Submitted: January 6, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We came to Windsong Cabin to spend Christmas together -- with our three grown sons. They wanted to snowboard, as well. While we were there, my Mom, sister, and two nieces joined us for several days -- making 9 in the cabin! Thanks to Donna, there was a tiny tree, and just enough greens to make things look Christmasy.

The cabin is lovely. Set in the middle of the woods, it was great for our dog (German Shepherd) to wander around pretty freely. The cabin was clean, with a wonderful fireplace and lots of firewood. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes and pots and pans. I still brought lots of my own stuff because I wanted to bake, but there was enough there for most things one would want while on vacation. The washer & dryer worked well -- and often! The Internet was wonderful -- the boys played quite a few computer games, and we saw many movies through their computer collections. The fleece throws were WONDERFUL!

One suggestion: If staying in the winter, 4-wheel drive is nice! The driveway is a bit steep, and -- when icy -- can be a bit difficult.

I have to say -- Windsong Cabin gives you a real feel for being in the Adirondacks, yet is close enough to everything you need to keep it easy. We hope to return someday, although probably not with as many people!
