The one way streets were a little confusing. It was close enough to Tupper Lake (Wild Center with the big trolls) and Lake Placid. We also went to Ausable Chasm which was an hour but worth the trip.

Great place to stay for our short family vacation. It is a clean, nice house that let us enjoy our time together. We liked it so much that we booked it again for a hiking trip.

Second stay at 15 Merrill!

5 friends stayed at 15 Merrill, so we could hike some high peaks. It is located in a very convenient location for many trailheads. Also has a few breweries near by for the post hike cheeseburger. Love this house! Will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful stay at Merrill Manor

Great location, charming home, and well stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable and it was nice having the TV in the basement designated as the kids room for some occasional adult time. Was also able to teach the kids a thing or two about foosball. Kristina was very responsive. We'd love to stay again!

Homey and welcoming

This partially updated older home is very roomy and accomodating. The central location was ideal. I would have appreciated knowing that no washcloths were provided so I could bring my own. HWBB heat was very comfortable.

Family Wedding

The place was easy to locate, walking distance to town,enjoyed not having to bring a but the food and beverages of our choice. Everything you needed from bowls to towels to tissues were supplied to us. There is only one TV and it is in the basement bedroom. Which was ok because none of us needed to watch it. Also in the basement was no A/C. Floor fans were available. The inside was very charming and clean.

Great long weekend

We enjoyed our stay in this home. The house seems larger than it appears from outside, as interior space well utilized. The house has great linens and comfortable beds. Kitchen is well stocked and has nice utensils. Location worked very well for the rugby tournament. Neighbors were very kind to loan jumper cables when one of our vehicles would not start. House is very comfortable and welcoming, full of charm, we look forward to another visit.
