If relaxation is what you are looking for, you will enjoy the peace and privacy found at the Mountain View Chalet. After a day of adventure, unwind in an inviting hot tub and sit in comfort by the fireplace with authentic adirondack artisan furnishings. The living area also features original oil paintings and award winning photography.

If you still have energy to burn off then our onsite gym is just the ticket - universal, BowFlex weights, stair climber, bikerider, etc - or maybe some serious air hockey, table tennis, or pool suits your desires. The location and convenience of this home are an ideal setting for a family vacation. You will never want to go home!

  • We spent our first Christmas away from home, and we could not have chosen a better place to spend Christmas than the Mountain View Chalet. Steve and Laura did us the favor of decorating the chalet with a Christmas tree, and other decorations. The kids had a lot of fun playing outside and down in the basement. The adults did a lot of relaxing, and also enjoyed challenging the kids to pool and ping-pong. The chalet is well equipped to accommodate kids and adults alike. It is conveniently located just 4 miles outside of town, and only 20 min. to Whiteface mountain. However, the 10 acre property gives you all of the privacy you need. We were a group of nine.......5 adults, and 4 children, ages 14, 13, 11, and 7, and we are all looking forward to returning. We highly recommend this place!!

  • This wonderful house provided the perfect setting for my adult children, grandchildren and I to play together for a week in, on and around beautiful Lake Placid. The kitchen was well-eqipped and large enough for several cooks to work in. There were enough comfortable beds and bathrooms to accomodate all of us. The hot tub was used every day and was especially fun at night. And the gameroom was in constant use. In general, the chalet is beautiful, clean, well-maintained and just plain fun to stay in. We had a great time!

  • The house is even better than the pictures...the kitchen is unbelievable. We opted to stay in and eat instead of going out because it was so much fun to cook in this kitchen. The property is beautiful...The hottub is the perfect touch...the house was spotless and decorated beautifully. The gameroom downstairs is a real bonus. We're praying for another hockey camp to come up this winter so we can enjoy Lake Placid again..and hopefully get to enjoy the Chalet once more. Our hats are off to he Hubers for sharing this wonderful property with us. Thanks.

  • Steve and Laura, We had such a lovely time staying in the Chalet! When we arrived the place was immaculate and very welcoming. It was nice to be as secluded as we were, yet close enough to town and other activities. The kitchen was a joy, as was the master bathroom and hot tub on the deck. It was the relaxing environment that we were looking for. We hope to return. Regards, Sarah & Erik

  • Dear Steve & Laura, My wife and I have been vacationing in Lake Placid for many years, and have stayed at the very finest hotels in town, but have never enjoyed anyplace as much as our week in your beautiful chalet. The hot tub on the back deck is the perfect place to relax and unwind. Cooking isn't something we'd normally do on vacation but we can't wait to get back so that we can make some more pancakes in your kitchen. Looking forward to getting back up there in the winter winter to do some skiing.

  • I stayed at the chalet from July 30 through August 7 this year and I'd have to say that it is the best spot I've been to in the area. The chalet was very comfortable for the seven of us and provided a great family vacation. We were able to kick back and relax and prepare great meals in the kitchen and relax on the huge deck and living area. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing family vacation in a pristine setting.
