This is the PERFECT house for a family getaway. Quality and location are top notch. All rooms were very comfortable, and it had everything we could have needed (including in the kitchen). Also, the house is beautifully designed, with many thoughtful details. We highly recommend a stay at Mark's house!

We truly appreciate the compliments, and are thrilled that our efforts to keep a clean, well-stocked place were noticed! Lake Placid is a beautiful little town, we're very fortunate to be in such close proximity to Main St but just far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet. We'd love for Paul and his family to come back, there's so much to do in every season! We'll keep the place cute, cozy and well-stocked!

Perfect Placid Weekend

We had a great stay. The house was beautifully done and had everything we could need. Location is perfect. Right up the street from downtown but far enough away from the hustle and bustle that you don’t get the noise. Would definitely stay again. Mark and Keirsa communicated throughout and were responsive and helpful.

House was wonderful! Great kitchen with everything you need - had a great variety of oils and vinegars and basic necessities. The bathrooms were so clean and the bed linens and towels were high quality. One thing that would have made a big difference was if the living room could sit 6 adults comfortably.

Cozy home in Lake Placid

My family had a wonderful stay. The house was perfectly cozy after a long day of skiing at Whiteface. It was very nice to come back to the space and unwind. The house was beautifully kept very clean and up-to-date. Bedrooms were warm and inviting. The location to the mountain and walking distance to the main street of Lake Placid is ideal! The hosts were very accommodating and communicative to any questions we had during our week long visit. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home in perfect location!

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at this gorgeous home along with our two teenage sons. The home was immaculate, extremely well appointed and included everything we could possibly need - with special touched sprinkled about! The master was spacious and the mattress was very comfortable. Living space was incredible and better than the pictures show. The location was phenomenal; so close to great restaurants and shopping. Mark was a fabulous host! We will definitely be back and look forward to our next stay here! Thank you Mark!

Cozy home, great location!

We really enjoyed being able to walk to downtown Lake Placid and Olympic Center from the home, very short walking distance away. 15 minute drive to Whiteface mountain but shuttles close by if needed. The home was cozy with beautiful nature artwork. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. Mark & Keira were great with communication. Easy access with the keypad. We would definitely return. Thank you!

Lake Placid Newbies

As a Christmas gift, my husband and I decided to take our boys skiing for a long weekend. We did not want to drive too far or take a plane; so Lake Placid seemed like a great compromise. I looked for a rental that had a good location and wasn't too large. Mark and Keirsa's Lake Placid home was perfect! It was large enough to give us some privacy if we wanted but it was super cozy and welcoming as well! It is well appointed with modern conveniences but has lovely older charm. It was in walking distance of everything and other local attractions were just a few miles away. I would highly recommend this property for any season. Thank you Mark and Keirsa!

Beautifully remodeled, best location.

This property was remodeled by a pro. Beautifully put together with top grade natural wood and tile materials in a house with appreciable historic value. Extremely clean, warm and well taken care of property. Hosts were excellent with information and help throughout the process. Location 6 stars. 5 min walk and you are on Main Street in the middle of it all.The breakfast nook was cozy spot for enjoying the snowy outdoors. The kitchen is a beautiful place to hang out and is well stocked with quality cookware, utensils, etc to make great meals. Large corner windows in the bedrooms upstairs provide a fantastic view of the area. Tasteful decorations and furniture throughout. Our family highly recommends this property and we hope to stay there and enjoy our time in Lake Placid again.
