I didn’t want to leave

The cabin is just right for 2 people. In the week we stayed, we only used the truck a couple of times because it’s a short, half-mile walk into town and we could ride bikes a few miles to go to lunch at the Whiteface club just on the other shore of lake Placid. Captain Marney’s boat rental is only a couple hundred yards away and it was a pleasure to rent a boat a couple days. We blew off plans to see a local band because we were enjoying the time on the deck above the boathouse so much. Even though there are a couple other properties in close proximity, the trees and positions of them give a feeling of solitude. Paradox bay is a calm little cove and we used the provided kayaks and canoe daily. Of you walk from the cabin completely around Mirror Lake it’s about a 4 mile loop, so a nice morning stroll with a stop at the Breakfast Club, The Cottage for a drink or lunch, or Jimmy’s 21 for a great dinner. Even a shorter walk to The View at Mirror Lake Inn for a fancy, “fine dining” dinner if you’re not wearing fancy shoes, or a leisurely stumble back from Zigzags after a night of bar games. Can’t wait to get back.

Cozy lakeside cottage for two!

Cozy lakeside one bedroom home base on a private way just off of Victor Herbert Road. Lovely dock and boathouse roof deck for lakeside dining and sunsets overlooking Paradox Bay and a marina off to one side. The view across the water is all trees with no houses and it's in a no wake zone so a loon family frequented the area. The house has two kayaks and a canoe for exploring the lake and the incredible houses and boathouses lining the shore. Neighbors on both sides but the house felt private because the trees and boathouse create nice separation. House is well equipped in the kitchen with dishwasher, plenty of towels and extra blankets, washer & dryer, heat and a nice little electric woodstove, AC in the bedroom upstairs and fans available. Really hot water and amazing water pressure. If you prefer a soft bed be sure to bring an egg crate/mattress pad. Would not recommend this house for older guests due to the stairs to the bathroom and bedroom. Grocery, ice cream and gas are all very close. We had a great time staying at Timberdoodle and exploring the nearby mountains, lakes and Olympic sites.
