Fabulous Fern Cabin | Hot Tub | Game Room

Bring the whole family to this spacious Adirondack cabin with plenty of room for fun. Fern Cabin is a spacious log cabin set in a quiet, wooded neighborhood in Jay, NY, offering ample space for your family to create lasting memories. The HOA allows one *unoccupied* camper / RV to be parked. This cabin is not available for events and parties.

Whiteface Mountain Ski Resort is just an 11 mile / 20 minute ride away, taking you through a stunning scenic notch along the West Branch of the Ausable River. Lake Placid is 20 miles / 32 minutes from the cabin. Spend your days exploring the High Peaks region and consider taking a drive to Lake Placid's charming downtown for dining and shopping. In the evening, gather around the fire pit or in the family room for a game of pool or foosball before retiring to one of the four Adirondack-inspired bedrooms to wind down for the night.

This property has three exterior security cameras: front entry, backyard (not the hot tub) and driveway. The neighborhood is generally a quiet, peaceful place. Strict quiet hours are from 10:00 pm - 8:00 am. In an effort to be a good neighbor, and adhere to the Town's noise ordinance, events and parties are not permitted.
