Snowshoe Cottage is the epitome of Adirondack atmosphere combining old world charm with modern convenience, original beadboard and wood fir floors with new Adirondack style furnishings. This cozy cottage can accommodate six people in style. It is perfect for a romantic getaway or your next family vacation.

You will have full access to the home (except for the garage) as well as the boathouse and dock.

We are always available by phone or email if you have a question or concern. We also have a caretaker nearby who is available in case of problem with the home.

Snowshoe Cottage is the perfect home away from home from which to experience all that Lake Placid and the High Peaks Region has to offer. From hiking to biking, spa time to wine and beer tastings, there is something for everyone.

Snowshoe Cottage is walking distance to the Village of Lake Placid. Also within walking distance are several hiking trails. There is also a trolley system in town.

Please note that the cottage itself is not directly on the water. There are water views from the lakeside rooms of the cottage but there is another house situated so that we do not get completely unobstructed views. The boathouse is, of course, directly on the water with splendid views of Mirror Lake.

This is a cottage dating back to 1906. It has all the modern-day amenities that you would hope for, but it is a cottage which by definition means a small house.
