Why the Owner Chose Lake Placid
Great town as it's a destination resort community having served as an Olympic site twice in its history. Lake Placid is still an Olympic training center and is host to a wide variety of sporting events.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
I like to be able to walk out of my bedroom, into the hot tub and then another 15 yards or so to my beach and the Lake. A great way to start the morning with a nice swim and again at night!
My beach and docks are private to this vacation property only. I always keep a sailboat tied up for my renters to use as they like as well as having a couple of kayaks all set to go as well. Every Wed and Thursday in the summer you can take a kayak about 5 minutes down the Lake and enjoy a concert going on from the bandshell on the shores of Mirror Lake. It's a great way to enjoy and recreate without having to get in a car and drive!
Owner's Map of Lake Placid
I've been Ski School Director for Whiteface Mt. for many years as well as PGA Teaching Pro. For many years, my wife and I ran Goldberries Restaurant on Main Street in Lake Placid.
In addition to skiing, I love kite boarding, roller blading, traveling and enjoyable times with friends and family! Lake Placid is a fantastic town for everything you might like to do....recreating in the outdoors, great dining, entertainment...you name it, we've got it!

Hi My friend Ed owns this property and I have stayed there many time... it is excellent. Below I am reposting comments from people that have stayed at the property on vacation. I am just doing this as a favor to Ed as he is not that comfortable on his computer yet :-) These comments came via personal emails to him vs. posting on the website. Vacationer Name: Laura Hometown: San Diego,CA Comment rating: Positive Comments: Camp Kreil is amazing! The lake is perfect, serene, picturesque and perfect for swimming. The kayaks and other water related items were used and enjoyed. The house is great and having the town of Lake Placid upstairs is wonderful. We can't wait to return. Vacationer Name: Mike Hometown: Lebanon, NJ Comment rating: Positive Comments: Wonderful home that is in a picture perfect setting. The yard, lake front offers complete privacy, unbelievable considering the shops and eateries along the main street just yards away! We enjoyed kayaking on shimmering Mirror Lake, hiking on the high peaks then relaxing in the comfortable, exquisitely decorated home, and hot tub. Thanks for a great getaway!

If this place is available - grab it! It is the perfect place to stay in Placid - right in the center of town (but below street level down towards the lake)and - directly - on Mirror Lake. My wife and I and our three young kids couldn't have had a better time at Eddy's place - it was perfect. Our kids loved running from the hot tub to the lake and back....over and over again. They completely entertained themselves while we could either sit on the deck, in the living room or be in the hot tub and see them the entire time - no worries and we could completly relax. This is the pefect place for Ironman - I got some great swims in right from the backyard and it is a short walk to the Olympic Center. Beautiful views out the back over the lake, especially at night. The place was very, very private, quiet and just perfectly maintained. Modern appliances - good gas bbq - large bathrooms and lots of closet space. The pictures on the site do not do the place justice at all!
