We've been vacationing in Lake Placid for the past 10 years & have always rented the same home. Being creatures of habit, we were slightly nervous to venture to a new rental...but we're SO glad we did! We enjoyed our stay immensely & will definitely be back.
This home is accurate to the description listed, yet even cuter in person! The deck was great to have coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night. The home is spacious & fully equipped with all of the kitchen necessities you may need. The beds, pillows & furniture were extremely clean and SO comfortable- certainly added to the R&R of our trip.
Talk about location!! Youre mere steps from several eateries- whether its an early morning stroll for coffee & breakfast, or ending the day with a nightcap & dessert- you have ample choices! The Farmhouse Cafe is a simple 4 minute walk from the home and their food and service were impeccable. Youre a simple 5 minute walk from Stewarts & a Wine/Liquor store for quick needs. Hannaford is a quick 10 minute drive for all of your grocery store needs! If the weather permits, you're certainly within walking distance to Main Street im Lake Placid where you can find just about any kind of food, shopping, boutique, coffee shop, bar, and goodies you desire! We highly recommend the banana pancakes & cappuccino at the Breakfast Club!
If youre wildlife and nature lovers like us, you HAVE to make the trip to the Adirondack Wildlife Refuge which is a gorgeous, scenic 20 minute drive to Wilmington. There you'll find trails leading to scenic views of the river in addition to a plethora of beautiful rehabbed wildlife- wolves, bears, fox, coyotes & so much more. It's free to the public (donations encouraged!) and is truly an absolutely amazing experience!
We cannot stress enough how friendly, helpful and accessible the owner was for the duration of our stay. Kyle truly made everything from check in, to answering questions, such a breeze... exactly what we needed to add to our relaxing trip! We were even welcomed with a lovely bottle of wine! The home was beautiful and everything we were looking for & our dogs loved it as well.. we'll be back!
