We had a wonderful time in Lake Placid. The home is beautiful and very comfortable. There is plenty of room for a large group to hang out together in the main areas with a giant dining area to fit everyone. The bedrooms are nicely spread out to give everyone some privacy when they want it & there are plenty of bathrooms.

House was great. Better than expected. Bigger with plenty of room for our family. 10 adults, 4 teenagers. The playroom with pool table was a big hit. The number of bedrooms, as well as bathrooms gave us plenty of privacy when needed. The dining room table was huge. Kitchen was well stocked for large groups. And having 2 dishwashers was great. Parking was fine for our 4 cars. The ability to walk to town worked out great for our family. And many of them did. All in all, a fabulous house, a fabulous Christmas. Definitely would recommend

Fantastic weekend in Lake Placid

We were absolutely blown away by the property! We enjoyed our stay—the bedrooms and bathrooms were all spacious and clean. The kitchen, living room, and dining room comfortably accommodated our large group (lots of seating options and space) visiting Lake Placid! We were impressed with all the amenities and how well the house was stocked (lots of utensils, glassware, plates, serving dishes, games, outdoor games, etc.). The house was also in a perfect location, close proximity to downtown and plenty of parking. Kim was great with communication before and during our stay, she’s a great host! I would love to return for another stay at this VRBO property.
