Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Lake Placid
Lake Placid has it all. Four seasons of the year there is ALWAYS something to do outdoors. We spend much of our winters downhill skiing at Whiteface mountain, cross country skiing just about ANYWHERE, and snowmobiling the hundreds of miles of trails the Adirondacks has to offer. The rest of the year we enjoy boating or paddling the lakes, golfing or hiking the many high peaks in the area.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The Homestead is PERFECT for larger groups, big families or families vacationing together. TONS of room to spread out. Without question, the "fan favorites" are the huge decks, and oh yes, the 8 person hot tub! Kitchen is a great place to hang, if you love board games like we do, you'll be spending plenty of time in the "game nook"...

The Homestead was absolutely fantastic. Spent a week there over the Christmas holiday and we had a great time. Close to everything, can easily park the car for the entire stay. We had several kids with us and there was plenty of room for everyone. Hot tub is a treat after skiing all day. Highly recommend it and we will definetely be back!!!

3 generation family vacation (with pets!) was packed with wonderful memories at this property! The house accommodated all our needs and we loved the rooftop deck for our family barbecues. Fourth of July fireworks were an amazing site from the deck!

We've stayed at the house twice, each time was superb! The location is very convenient, just 1/2 block from Main St. and all the bars and restaurants in Lake Placid. The deck and the hot tub are a wonderful way to spend some time. Kim and Tom are great, very responsive! We very much look forward to our next stay!!

We had a great stay there, comfortably slept all of our party (14). A very short walk to the center of town, great place to stay overall. No issues with anything at all. Would certainly recommend for any larger parties looking for comfort and a great location.
