We enjoyed our stay and the location is great. We had a view of the lake and dog sled run. The main rooms and bedrooms were fine. The bathrooms are dated and in need of remodeling (this might bother some people). The kitchen was okay with plenty of accessories. Entrance through the side door is rough and doors don't latch. Entering areas need an update and might bother some people. Overall we enjoyed the space. The host was accessible and her brother is local.
Nice old house with character. Plenty of space to spread out. Close to the lake and town. Good for all except those who have trouble with steps ( although there is a pullout couch a full bath on first floor).
We came to celebrate my parents' 55th wedding anniversary as Lake Placid was a vacation spot many years ago for us as a family. Huttlingers House is large enough to accommodate lots of people, with many sitting rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. Easy walk to Main Street. Definitely reccommend!
Loved our short stay here as the home felt exactly like that - home. Beautiful sprawling old home that’s a short walk away from Mirror Lake (visible from the home) - and from lovely restaurants with lake view. The home itself is equipped thoughtfully and plentifully for a comfortable stay.
We were in Lake Placid to ski and relax as a family. The house was ideally located, easy to access the shuttle bus to Whiteface and easy walk in and out of town. Nice park just beyond the house. The house had everything we needed.
I had such a wonderful weekend in Huttlinger House.My group called Home with soul.Clean sheets,Resort towels, great dinning view.Overall I will come back .Thank You.
Such a wonderful experience getting to stay in a large house in the middle of town!!! Everything went well from check-in to check-out. Hosts are quick to respond with any questions. The location is right next to the Whiteface Shuttle and a quick walk to the heart of town!!! Would like to return someday!
This is our second time staying at the home. It is a lovely older home that always seems to welcome us into it. There is a history of the house and pictures of the last family that lived there that gives it personal touches that I no longer see in other VRBO homes. The house is exceptionally clean. We enjoyed the back porch when the weather was nice, and the indoor porch when it was cooler. With older family members staying with us, the first floor bed was appreciated. We look forward to staying at the home again!
This old house was awesome! It was very spacious and comfortable. The location was perfect with a very short walk to the village and lake. Easy check in and check out. Would definitely recommend it!
The house is very nice, and the location couldn’t be better. Yes it’s old, with some things that are different from today’s standards, like separate hot and cold faucets in the bathroom sinks. But that’s also a part of it’s charm. Minor criticisms are that the parking is very tight for three cars, and a couple of instructions didn’t match. For instance, garbage bags weren’t where the instructions said they were. After spending some time looking everywhere twice I gave up only to find them at the bottom of the garbage can. But minor. I’d definitely stay there again. The owner was very nice and very accommodating.
This charming old house built in the early 1900s has been a family property for many decades. We appreciated the history, the many antiques, and the very convenient location to downtown. All 4 of us were comfortable. The hosts were very helpful with local suggestions and they responded quickly to our needs. A great find in Lake Placid!
Great interesting house conveniently located in Lake Placid
The whole family enjoyed this well kept 1908 house. It was well kept and enjoyed several indoor and outdoor areas for us to relax. It’s location was very conveniently located on the north side of town making walking around the lake and into town very easy. We would look forward to staying at the house again!
We loved this unique family home with a fully stocked kitchen and barware for all our cooking and entertaining needs. AC units in all the bedrooms for sleeping comfort and a beautiful big porch and yard enclosed by cedar bushes!
We had a very positive experience with this home. You can tell it's a loved family home that made me and my family feel at home, from the big kitchen and dining room to cocktails on the porch and coffee in the sun room with views of Mirror lake. It's perfect walking distance to the village. We were in town for a wedding and the accommodations made it a memorable weekend for our family. Thank you!
Big historic home with plenty of room to gather together or spread out. We had a nice fire on night. Great location with all the shops and restaurant on main street within a few mi sites walk.
This was an excellent place to stay in Lake Placid. It was clean, convenient and well-situated for a quick walk into town. Thank you.

About the host
Hosted by Tierney Beck
The Huttlinger House was built in 1908 and has been held by relatively few owners during its long history. For many years it was known locally as "the Cautin House" and was then purchased by Mrs. Luders, a pre-World War II emigrant from Germany, who established it as a guesthouse for nightly, weekly and monthly guests. Her guest register runs from the 1940's to 1953 when the house was purchased as a first home by newly-married Jerry and Anne Huttlinger. The Huttlingers continued the guest house business for several years, but this gradually tapered off as four children and numerous pets took over. For more than seventy years, the house has remained the family home and the scene of many family events. There were social gatherings to host a variety of guests, from world-renowned musicians to circus performers. It was home to the Sports Illustrated photographers during the 1980 Olympics. The Huttlinger House embraced all within it and provided a warm and comfortable home. The house is now jointly owned by the children who were raised here. All are settled elsewhere, but none wanted to lose the scene of so many happy memories. So we offer it to you, hoping that it will generate happy memories for your family and friends as well.
