Excellent location!

Beautiful home with all the amenities. Fantastic location - secluded but yet a short drive to town or walk to Bald Mountain. Thank you to Peter & Wendi for helping to make our Old Forge trip a great time!

Perfect family home

We absolutely love this house. The owners are amazing with communication and always there when we needed anything. This was our 2nd time staying there. We go every year for our family trip with 3 families and this house meets everything we needed and had plenty of room too.

Great Place to Stay

The house was very comfortable and laid out so well for a large group of (8) adults, (2) seniors, and (2) kids. Great outside porch and fire pit. The younger ones hiked up the mountain and enjoyed the Water Safari close by. We will definitely want to stay there again for our next family vacation in upstate New York.

Summer Fun

The property was comfortable for our family of 15. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were roomy and plenty of hot water in the showers. The kitchen had everything you’d need. We enjoyed the deck and outdoor fire pit. It’s close to all of the fun stuff in Old Forge and Inlet.

Family/Friends had a blast!

We're a group of family of friends that stayed at Old Forge because our oldest goes to camp here. The house is BIG/spacious, we loved the backyard/bonfire/deck. There's a hiking trail that's a walking distance from the house which is a BONUS.

Great Retreat

The Rondaxe retreat was a real treat. The house was beautiful and fit our needs perfectly. We especially liked the pet friendly property as we love our animals and were glad to take them with us. The seclusion of the property was perfect and not too far from Old Forge. We had a great time reminiscing around the bon fire and wasn't worried about disturbing any neighbors. Thank you for a memorable family getaway.

Family Trip

Great house, great location. Would have liked better instructions for garbage. It’s our first time staying in ADK and we’re not used to dropping off garbage 15 min away. Other than that, everything was great and we’d stay here again

Lots of space and great location; maintenance issues

We hosted our extended family for our annual winter gathering in the Adirondacks. We loved the location and the ample space. It had plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms to keep our group staying together. We had a few maintenance issues that were resolved. Peter was very responsive to communications and even made the long trip to address some of them which we appreciate. Also note the house has an apartment that the owner and friends use during your stay.

Rondaxe Retreat is a winner!

Loved this house and location! Plenty of space and A/C is definitely a plus in the warm summer months. Lots of privacy as well. Well equipped with most of what we needed. It was also nice having a large 2-car garage and plenty of parking.
