I Rented for an extended ski weekend with my daughters. This Charming and cozy cabin was the perfect size for The Four of Us. Easy 15 minute drive to Gore, The hot tub was great.The tap water had a bit of a sulfur odor which can be off-putting if you have a sensitive nose so you may want to bring enough bottled water. Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves and plan on rebooking next season.

The entire weekend was lovely. If you're not used to well water, the sulfur smell takes some getting used to. Also the hot tub was not warm the first night we were there, I was informed the next day by a cleaner that it was just filled the prior day which is probably why. Not a huge deal. Overall a great time for the wife and I. Very peaceful and cozy.

The cabin was nice, but the photos are a little outdated. The listing said free toiletries but we had to buy soap. Hot tub was very nice. We purchased and left a pan for the kitchen. We enjoyed the fireplace.

Amazing Mountain Getaway

The cabin came with everything we needed and even more so. The host was very accommodating and quick to respond via email. The property was beautiful and extremely quiet and private. We even got to see some rarer wildlife while we were here. Definitely would like to come back to stay.

House was very cute. However, when we arrived, there was no signage or house number and the house was 40 degrees. The hot tub never got above 71 degrees and the sulfur smell from the water was nauseating. The wood stove was a nice addition, though.

Thank you for your feedback—we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. As this is a remote camp, the house number is displayed on the front of the cabin to make arrival easier. After your stay, the hot water heater was replaced, which resolved the temporary sulfur odor you encountered. The hot tub performs best when the cover is kept on at all times and the system is set to standard mode. These instructions are provided at check-in to help ensure optimal performance, particularly in extreme cold weather. We’re always happy to assist if any questions arise during your stay. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the wood stove and appreciate you sharing your thoughts for future guests.

Great stay at a secluded comfortable cabin

The cabin was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. Everything was in great working order. The check-in process was very easy and communication was quick and concise. The Location of the cabin is secluded yet a short drive to dining, hiking, skiing, shopping, and entertainment. Highly recommended.

Property was secluded and close to skiing. kitchen needs updated cookware to cook for a family, which is why we stay in a house not hotel.

Much needed getaway

It was just like we hoped! A clean, cozy, rustic cabin that allowed us to relax and unwind. We enjoyed the wood burning stove a lot! We loved visiting nearby towns and hamlets and enjoying wineries, craft breweries and local distilleries. The gem for us was a trip to Lake Placid and reliving the memories of the 1980 US Olympic Hockey Team.We loved every minute of our stay here and look forward to returning

Our experience at the cabin

The cabins and the location are great. We wanted to get away from everything and you certainly can do it here. Dishes, pans, towels. Everything was here. Even the firewood for the wood stove! My one and only complaint, whom ever they hire to clean it did a very shotty job.

Great Cabin

Awesome cabin for a ski trip to Gore. The place was clean and comfortable. The hot tub was great. It snowed about 2 feet and the driveway was plowed and shoveled right away. Great communication with the host. Only negative is the upstairs beds could use a upgrade but it wouldn’t stop me from renting again. Fantastic

Another Year

Have stayed here a few years now. Great place though this year had a few issues. From the TV not working and the microwave being broken. After that, I’m not sure where we will stay next year.

Simple & Sweet

This property is simple, sweet, quiet, and fine if you don't need it to be luxurious or perfect. It's a gorgeous setting, away from neighbors. There are some wildlife issues (lots of scurrying in the rafters at night) due to the quiet and remote location. If the power goes out, a loud generator comes on. Having a generator is such a plus, but it was surprising in the middle of the night.The hot tub was great and the wood stove was cozy. Both needed directions from our host who was very helpful and communicative. Furnishings are ADK rustic. Bathrooms were clean. Kitchen needs some updating and repair but we were able to do the basics. All in all a nice stay and great proximity to Gore and skiing.

Nice house, poorly managed

The bad: - Mice! We were woken up on our first night to a mouse rustling through the kitchen garbage. We did our best to store everything in the cabinet after that but still found droppings each morning. Disgusting. - No smoke detectors on the main floor. 1 questionable one (no lights on) on the 2nd floor. - The house was 50 degrees when we entered. I understand about keeping the heat low in between visitors. But with their smart thermostats I don't see why they can't bring the temp up to something more comfortable leading up to a check in. The good: It's a cozy lodge which is great for a ski trip. The outdoor hot tub is very relaxing.

Hi Jason, we want all of our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we are sorry that you experienced a few issues here. The homeowner would like to share the following: - We have monthly pest control in place for the cabin. Still, as a mountain home, we ask that guests keep food in the refrigerator or sealed away in cabinets. - There are three smoke detectors in the house which we have confirmed are functional. Thanks for your review!

Great Property, weird issues

We had a very relaxing stay at this property! the hot tub was great as was the fireplace. very spacious and comfortable and secluded, but close enough to stores and resources. When we arrived the lights in the bathroom and the diningrooom lights weren’t working, we reported it and the owner had an electrician come out the next morning. they discovered that the last guest had unscrewed all the lightbulbs in the cabin … weird. one of the bedrooms upstairs also locks from the outside and it’s just very odd. other than that the stay was very relaxing and the house was great. we also had an issue with a cleaning lady who began screaming at us for being about 25 minutes late to leave. which about 10 of that was spent being berated by her. it was a little unprofessional. The owner seems great and very responsive, it just looks like maybe the cleaning company needs to do a better job checking over the property before guest arrive and with their overall professionalism. With that being said, I still recommend this property. it was a nice getaway!
