About the host

Hosted by Rikki

Host profile image
I vacationed in the Adirondacks for years before purchasing my first house in 2015 in Jay, NY. I work from home as a systems administrator and love to hike, snowshoe, ski, kayak, do home renovations, and most of all spend time with my family.

Why they chose this property

We purchased Yinzer House for the following reasons: We wanted a space for our family/friends to stay while visiting the Adirondacks, a place to work from home at (since my husband and I both work remotely), and a place to host guests at as well. When we purchased the house, we learned that the house was a motel years ago. It is pretty awesome that we are able to host guests like the previous owners did years ago as well.

What makes this property unique

Your hosts Rikki and Jay live next to the home so we are available for emergencies when needed.
