We had a great weekend away with lots of laughs and memories made. The house was perfect for all of our needs and more than spacious enough for our group. The hot tub and sauna were a great plus, as well! The area was beautiful and it was nice to have a private spot in the mountains to spend time with family and friends. The house was also a short, scenic drive to Lake Placid! We loved every second and look forward to coming back again in the future! :)

We had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The house is absolutely beautiful—clean, spacious, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed. The location is perfect for enjoying the High Peaks area. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, making the entire stay seamless and stress-free. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the area.
