Thank you for your kind response. We are so glad your family enjoyed your stay over the New Year’s holiday. We have worked hard to make our home comfortable and enjoyable for everyone. Moira and I hope you and your family come back again soon!
We had a great stay here over the July 4th holiday. The house was perfect for us a we like to be close to Lake Placid and Wilmington, but away from the crowds. The house is located in a secluded, quiet area. We enjoyed the wrap around porch for morning coffee, the large front yard for games as well as the firepit at night. Would highly recommend staying here.
The house was wondeful and cozy. The issue we had was solved quickly by the owner and he was in constant communication with us. I would definitely stay there again

My family and I had a fantastic experience staying at your house. It was well maintained and ideally situated for us to explore the surrounding area. Quick car ride to Lake Placid and close to hiking trails as well.
The beds were very comfortable and the kids loved the loft area. Great firepit outside as well. We definitely recommend this house for families of 4-6 people.
Beautiful cabin - well stocked - a bit buggy but that's summer in Placid - thanks so much!

So glad you enjoyed our home and your stay during the Ironman! Bugs usually not a problem at this time of the year but it has been particularly hot past few weeks.
The house was set on a lovely spot that was secluded, yet close to Wilmington (not walkable, but we didn't expect that). It was also bigger inside than the outside led us to believe. Plenty of sleeping space, a ping pong table on the lower level, and a spacious porch with portions covered and uncovered which was great for reading, chatting, board games, meals.

The cabin was perfect for our needs. We stayed there for the Lake Placid Ironman and wanted a peaceful location outside of town. Travel to and from Lake Placid on race day was somewhat challenging for my friends/family staying with us but not insurmountable. The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I loved sitting out on the porch drinking coffee every morning. The gorgeous 20 minute drive to town was worth it in exchange for the serenity of the cabin. Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you Julie for your kind response. So glad you and your family/friends were able to enjoy our home. Come back again next year for the Iron Man!
Overall it was very nice, very close to things to do, quiet and surrounded by woods which was lovely! Had a couple dead mice we found in traps on the mantle that looked like they had been there a while so it could have been a bit cleaner but overall very nice!

We take great pride in keeping our property clean and this was an oversight. Mice are typically not an issue but when they are seen we have always tried to address promptly.
This house was perfect for our daily kayaking trips to different Adirondack lakes and ponds. It had plenty of room for 7 adults; everyone was comfortable, the kitchen allowed us to make delicious meals, and the porch provide an ideal spot to plan our days in the morning and relax in the evenings.
We had a couple small hiccups, and Alan was quick to help us out. He was great!
We highly recommend this property.
Clean, Well kept! Nice place to spend the week with the family, located close to town, Very comfortable and relaxing! The owner, Alan responds quickly, to any concerns you may have! Will defiantly be returning in the future!
My family came up for the Ironman Race. The house was wonderful and Alan was very responsive. We also rent our second home as a vacation home, and we really appreciate the attention to detail. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was 1.4 miles from the Ironman course so my family could cheer me on. We would definitely rent again!

The property is perfectly located for skiing at White Face and numerous snowshoeing trails. The cabin/house is great for a one or two families. We had a great vacation!
Lovely house on private lot convenient to “town” and Whiteface. House was clean and large with plenty of sleeping options and area for kids to claim as playroom. We would definitely book again for our next visit.
This home is clean, well equipped and convenient. The layout was perfect for our group (2 families) and communication with Alan was excellent. We would highly recommend and we look forward to staying here again in the future.
Do not hesitate to book ! The house is so cool. Nice views of the mountains. Calm area but close to everything. Beds are great. Living room very confortable and cosy. Kitchen well equiped. Perfectly located to visit adirondacks. Alan was very responsive and answered to all our questions. Glad we stayed there. It was a perfect holiday.

This is a lovely home/ cabin, with all great furnishings and amenities. The huge porches are wonderful. It's a prime location with awesome adventures in all directions. Owner was very responsive when we had an issue. Needed better direction w/ the flu. Highly recommend the place and would definitely return.
Just completed a week stay and it was very enjoyable. Clean well appointed and located in a quiet spot. Beds were comfortable, kitchen had all the things you need, and plenty of chairs to relax outside on the spacious deck or around the fire pit. The cabin is located just down the road from a good fly fishing spot with ample parking. Charcoal grill so plan accordingly. Again, a great place to stay and a very well run operation.
We really enjoyed our stay at Ausable Meadows. The location was very peaceful with a great wraparound porch to relax and enjoy the Adirondack air. Amongst beautiful wildflowers that my two daughters were thrilled about. The road is not heavily travelled and the open property surrounded by forest had a very nice breeze.
Even though there was no air conditioning, each room had fans and there was a large ceiling fan that circulated the air very well. We never felt hot on a week in the middle of July. We really enjoy the family atmosphere of Wilmington for our Adirondack stays and this house was a perfect spot near everything. Definitely recommend it.

Appreciate your feedback and so glad you were able to enjoy the amenities of our home and Wilmington.
We loved staying here. We had two adults and two kids, and there were many sleeping options. The kids loved exploring the house and playing in the yard and on the porch. The house was easy to find, and is located very close to the town although the house itself feels very secluded. Would definitely stay here again!!

We had a wonderful time at the Cabin, and would definitely consider it again next time.
My family + another family (4 adults & 3 kids total) all fit very comfortably in this cabin. We cooked 2 meals and had plenty of room at the dining room to seat all of us. The 3 kids all slept in the loft upstairs and the adults split the main bedroom and the bedroom in the basement. There was plenty of room for another 3 kids at least.
The location to Whiteface Mtn was great, only 4 miles away down the main road which took us about 10-12 minutes to drive. The town of Lake Placid is about a 30 minute drive from the house too and worth the trip. We are at 2 excellent restaurants Lisa G’s and Smoke Signals which we’re recommended too by some locals in the area we met skiing.
We cooked 2 meals at home and had plenty of room at the dining room table for all 7 of us. It is a cozy home and the new ping pong table was a big hit as well.
The 2 full baths were fine for all of us, and we had fun playing games in front of the fire.
Overall, a great place to stay if visiting the area, and we’d go back again for sure. Alan was quick to answer any questions we had too.
Thank you Alan!

Fantastic Experience!
Absolutely beautiful home and property with wonderful amenities. I was there with my family for a ski trip at Whiteface Mountain which is a very easy drive from the house. We all had a great time and I will rent the home again, the next time I visit.
Alan was great to work with and made the process very easy.
