As always our annual trip was the perfect peaceful get away. Weather stayed great, hot tub was perfect. Views stunning. Leo is a great host! See you next time chalet (:
The host is absolutely amazing. So polite and on top of everything. But truly the best part was the ambiance is breathe taking.. 10/10 thee most peaceful place I’ve ever been.
This location was beautiful and had amazing views in the morning and at night. The hot tub was fantastic and the property was clean. We will definitely be coming back!
Booked the chalet for a weekend over the first week of October, and had peak color, which was fantastic with the view. Great location, and easy to get to Saranac Lake and Lake Placid. Hot tub was amazing, and the smell of the cedar is great. Definitely going to make this a yearly trip.
The property is absolutely stunning. The home is beautiful, clean, and has unbelievable views. The owner was extremely helpful and gave great recommendations to ensure we had an amazing stay. Looking forward to the next time we get to come back.
Beautiful views! Inside the chalet is so cozy, comes with everything you could need for some homemade meals. Of course we love the natural oak hottub. So quiet and peaceful, just a short 30 minute drive into saranac lake and local small town to shop and grab abite to eat and do winter outdoor activities. We got engaged here last year and officially come annualy. We look foward to it so much!. Leo is great with communcommunicating we just love it here !we just love it here iteat.
We came from Europe for our honeymoon and this was our favourite stay during our whole trip! It’s a very cool and unique chalet. Beautiful setting, good location, great views, and very comfortable.
Absolutely perfect in every way. Thank you ❤️
The home is above and beyond! The views, the layout the hot tub, all of it. Immaculate. Leo went above and beyond to drop off a celebratory engagement gift. This trip was over the moon & we cant wait to come back to the chalet many more times as it now has stole our hearts! Thank You Leo for being an amazing host!
Overall our experience was lovely and just what the doctor ordered. Loved that we could bring our 4 legged best friend too. Some constructive criticism would be to maybe have more information on the property in the paper quick guide provided as we were unsure of how far we could venture so therefore we didn't leave the near vicinity of the building (after doing some more research after we left I realized we could have walked around the orchard). Since there was no TV, more than one game provided might be nice for rainy days ( luckily we had beautiful weather so it wasn't an issue). It might be fun to add a log book for people to write a quick journal of their stay but this is just a personal preference- it may not be in your taste, just a thought!Definitely a wonderful place to stay and a beautiful thought-out design for the views. Hot tub was one of the key reasons I wanted to book there and having a view and being under the stars was perfect. Host was responsive and check in was easy. I would stay here again if the opportunity arose :)
We were lucky enough to be the first guests at this property. The house is absolutely stunning!! The views are incredible from every room. It’s close enough to the towns of Saranac Lake and Lake Placid so you can go out to eat etc but isolated enough that you feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere at the same time.
The home is very well appointed. It has everything you need for a wonderful stay including fully stocked kitchen, linens and towels, camp chairs for the fire and tons of firewood.
The wood burning hot tub in the deck is a wonderful treat after a long day of hiking.
The host, Leo, is an awesome guy. He met us at the property to show us around and teach us how things work. He is also full of useful tips about nearby hikes, bars and restaurants etc. He checked in a few times to make sure we had everything we need.
We loved it so much we’re thinking about making this an annual event. This place is simply incredible.

Thanks, Mark for the kind words. We do hope you’re able to visit again!
This is hands down the best vacation rental we have ever had, and Leo was a fantastic host.
Part 1: The home
Leo's rental home is a beautiful work of art. The architecture is stunning and allows you to exist as close to nature as possible while still enjoying the comforts of a house. There are endless windows, so that everywhere you look you are taking in the natural beauty of the area. The amount of time we spent just sitting in the big picture window bed/seating area just taking in the natural setting was very refreshing.
My daughter who is 3 was almost too amazed at all the stars she could see from her bed to sleep the 1st night we were there.
And the natural cedar hot tub on the 2nd story deck? Amazing. Me and my wife really enjoyed sharing a drink while we listened to the coyotes howling under the glow of the milkyway from a beautiful hot tub at the end of the day.
Part 2: The orchard
Leo's property is located on a tiny orchard. My family loved picking apples from the trees as snacks, and were always excited to wake up to deer in the fields of the orchard.
Part 3: Location
20 minutes from Saranac Lake, 30 minutes from Lake Placid, 30 minutes from Whiteface. We went adventuring in the mountains and towns everyday and never felt like anything was too far away. Some travel is to be expected in the Adirondacks.
Part 4: Our Host
Leo was a great communicator. Responded quickly and even left us an apple picking pole to use during our stay!
Hope to stay again!

Thanks so much for the kind review. You seem to have left a USB-USB charging cable, which I can send you if you want. Let me know.
First off, know this is an absolutely beautiful new build in a gorgeous location. Far enough away from the crowds to be quiet and dark at night, but close enough to pop out for groceries and adventures. Honestly, I want to ask for the blueprints for this place so I can built a replica when I retire. Well-appointed, clean, loaded with ameneties, and surrounded by exactly what you hope for in the ADK.
That said, as a new build, we did have some wrinkles that needed to be ironed out on the fly.
The shower backed up to the point of overflowing, so we had to sop up water with any towels we could grab. (see also the 3rd note below.) Frustrating, but not a deal breaker by a long shot, and our host was an absolute gem to take care of it immediately.
More frustrating was the lack of heat, especially in dipping autumn temperatures. But cold nights led to cold mornings for our entire stay. We're used to sleeping cool, but waking up to 60° inside when it's 45° outside was... uncomfortable. HOWEVER, I've bben told this has since been fixed for future guests.
Lastly, the amenities listed a washer & dryer, but as of our stay (early Oct), there were none we could find. Hook-ups downstairs, but nothing else. Would've been helpful for those sopping towels noted above.
A few growing pains at an otherwise gorgeous spot. We'll happily return.
