Welcome to your relaxing getaway! Whether you are coming here to ski Whiteface the Olympic Mountain, Hike, fish, bike or just breathe in the mountain air we invite you to spend time at our cabin.
After decades of spending time in the Adirondacks it was time to find a place we could go to unwind. In the 1940s, 2 small cabins were brought up from the nearby town of Jay and made into one. We purchased the cabin in early 2017 and spent over a year renovating it and making it a truly comfortable, peaceful retreat. In the great room you will see some of the original character of the cabin.
The cabin is located approximately 2 miles from Whiteface Mountain. The mountain can be seen from part of our property and with some tree removal this summer we hope to have even more of a view.
The cabin has 2 cozy bedrooms each with a full size log bed. There is one completely renovated bathroom with a shower stall.
The living room comes complete with 2 leather chair and a halfs and a full size couch and is where you will find the TV. The television sits on top of a media center complete with an electric fireplace for a chilly fall night when you might not want the heat on in the whole house and also has a built in bluetooth speaker.
The kitchen is large and comes complete with all the dishes, cookware and utensils you will need to cook your relaxing vacation meals. The Appliances are new and the counters are all made from local walnut slabs. There is a table in the kitchen that comfortably seats 4.
As you face the kitchen sink you will look out onto the great room which has a long walnut bar area where 4 additional stools are located. This room is over 600 sq. ft and has a pull out full size futon, new cozy sectional and a large comfy chair and a half. You will have no trouble finding a good spot to sit while you are here. Lots of board games are located in this area.
Outside, there is front deck equipped with wonderful outdoor furniture for you to relax on and patio/pergola with a dining table and chairs for 6 people. There is a gas grill to cook food for everyone.
In the warmer months you can set up the hammock and enjoy the nature that surrounds you. A fire pit is located to the side of your house and there is some wood provided you when we are able to round up some on our property. Otherwise, you can purchase bundles at many spots along the local roads for $5 to $7.
The town of Wilmington is only 1.5 miles down the road where you will find our convenience store/gas station and a few restaurants in town as well all needed amenities 10 miles away in Lake Placid.
There is the flume trail system for walking/mountain biking approximately 1.5 miles away.
Lake Placid is 10 miles away offering restaurants, shops and all the fun of the Olympic sites from 1980.
You can access the high peaks and hike many of the 46 high peak mountains within a 10 mile drive of the cabin.
The Ausable river flows close by and offers some of the best fly fishing around. Please feel free to email me with any questions you may have.

About the host

Hosted by Maureen Gannon

Host profile image
Our family loves to spend time in the Adirondacks which is why we purchased the property in January of 2017. We have enjoyed renovating the home and spending time skiing whiteface, hiking the Adirondack high peaks, fishing the Ausable and kayaking on many of the wonderful lakes and rivers in the area. I am a high School Science Teacher who enjoys gardening and all the enjoyment that being outside can provide!

Why they chose this property

I have been looking for property near Whiteface Mountain sporadically for years. In the fall of 2016 I decided to take the leap and when this property came on the market I knew it was the right one. It was only 600 sq. ft when we purchased it with 2 enclosed porches which have now been finished into a beautiful 650sq. ft Great Room with cathedral ceilings. We love the quiet of the surroundings and how relaxed we feel when at the cabin.

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is about 10 minutes from Lake Placid, 1.5 miles from the center of Wilmington, 2 miles from Whiteface Mountain and 3 miles from the start of the Whiteface Memorial Highway which brings you up to the top of Whiteface for unparalleled views of the Adirondacks, Green Mountains and on a particularly clear day, Mt. Washington in New Hampshire. The Adirondack Wildlife Refuge is located right down the road.
