Quiet Neighborhood - Close to Town
We had a lovely stay at Florina’s Adirondack A-Frame. The home was spacious enough to fit four adults, two teens and one dog. The updated kitchen counters and appliances made meal prep easy. The beds, fold down sleeper and provided sheets were comfy.
We enjoyed walks around the lake and reminisced about the “old” metal playground equipment! Whiteface and Lake Placid made for good day trips too.
We had s’mores by the fire, game and movie nights in the awesome three-season room (we loved the hammock chair) and coffee on the spacious deck. Casey, our four-legged companion, felt right at home with the fenced in area.
We had a nice stop-and-chat with a local resident, who has lived in the area for 56 years. One of the original 11 residents! He gave a us a brief history of the area and made sure we knew there was absolutely no swimming in the lake.
The only issues we found were that there was no dishwasher, although one is listed on the VRBO site, there were damp sheets and towels in the washer and dryer and no screen on the window in the loft (we found it behind the stairs). We simply separated the towels and sheets and gave them another wash and dry and folded them up for the next guests and we installed the screen in the upstair’s window. Not a huge deal, since we needed to use the washer and dryer to refresh our clothes from swimming in the nearby Ausable River and needed to open the loft window to get the air moving - as the ceiling fan in the living room makes a terrible noise when you put it on (even on low).
We hope to stay in the neighborhood again!
