Book your stay up in the tree tops of Daisy Hill, yet just minutes to fine shopping, groceries, and restaurants. A recent family through VRBO seemed to capture it best: 'Everything was wonderful! Your place is beautiful, so close to everything yet still magically hidden in the woods. We had a lovely, relaxing time…. thank you.'

About Owner
Originally from the suburbs of New York, I was born in Lake Placid, because I was born in the summer, and Lake Placid has been a summer destination for my family for generations. I lived in Burlington VT for many years, and have been living and working in Boston now for almost a decade (Beacon Hill). I would spend as much time as I possibly could in Lake Placid, as I grew up a huge lake and mountain girl. But, my husband's family has a vacation home on an island off the coast of Maine, so time needs to be split in the summer. And, our winter ski weekends seem harder to come by with a new baby in our lives. Hence the need and desire to share my home with others, and help them enjoy my beloved Lake Placid experience.
Owner purchased this House in 2006
Why Owner chose Lake Placid
Daisy Hill Lodge is on a large area of land that has been in my family for generations, and my siblings and I were fortunate enough to be able to build our own vacation homes on the property. I built mine while still single in my 30's, designed to be the perfect getaway for a young growing family, and with the intention of it being my retirement plan. I'm quite glad I did that in '06, because Daisy Hill Lodge is looking much more beautiful than my 401k these days!

Great place! Martha was great to work with and very attentive.
Thanks Ryan, you were pretty awesome yourself. Hope you can come enjoy Daisy Hill again - with the new hot tub next time! The winter has unique charm but it's an entirely different experience in the summer to consider as well.
Daisy Hill is a delight.
This is a wonderful home nestled in the woods with spectacular views. Highly recommended
Thanks...You guys were awesome guests! Hope you can make it back next Fall and enjoy a few more sunny days!
Wonderful Family Vacation
Not the get away we were hoping for
These were not renters you ever want at your property. After 8 years of renting to delightful and happy families this woman was brutal. Indeed a bee hive formed on a deck, in summer, in the Adirondacks.I felt horrible her daughter was stung and my caretaker (a fireman) offered assistance. I I confirmed with the Ironman family that had just left they had been using the tub the night before so it literally formed that day. My caretaker got right on it with spray and then I had our exterminator come to ensure it was gone. I also told her I would rebate her that first night and the whole stay if she wanted to leave. I wish she had. She declined. It was unfortunate that I accidentally didn't have my phone with me that afternoon she got there, but fortunately my caretaker was reachable for her. Indeed there is no outdoor grill..we have a wonderful indoor Jenn air grill that faces the deck...because we don't want to attract animals and insects...like BEES! I indicated having a grill on my original listing, which at the time didn't say "outdoor" and I've addressed this with home away. I never said we had AC and never needed it personally...few places in LP do. its up on a hillside with tons of Windows and screen doors. My caretaker, his wife who cares for the hot tub and grounds (and is law enforcement) and my housekeeper all reported many issues when they left, And she had never sent a security deposit! (Nothing to keep!!!) Balled up sheets wreaking like urine found under a kids bed, broken lantern on the porch, a brand new expensive bottle of tub chemicals she just opened was emptied etc...(and the tub dark green). And she lied repeatedly throughout her stay, about things she told my caretaker's wife I said and things she told me he said. I can't believe I still sent her the night refund, less a very small token amount for all they ruined (less than a hundred). Damage may not have been her personally, any of it, as she had a bunch of pre teens and teens with her. Only time I've ever had to keep a dime. I had such a bad feeling about this woman from the start, and I offered them to leave with full refund, and should have trusted my instincts.
Beautiful house with amazing views
