We had an amazing 3 night stay at Shore Crest, Lake Placid. The home is immaculate and very comfortable. We were a group of 10 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone to have time together and also privacy when wanted. Each bedroom having it's own bathroom was really nice. The kitchen is well stocked. The covered deck is probably the best part of the house as you can enjoy the view in any weather. David and Madeleine were delightful hosts.

Traveled with 8 adults and 5 children under 3. The house was perfectly set up to accommodate all of us. There was plenty of bedrooms to choose from and each bedroom having its own bathroom was a huge plus. The kitchen was fully stocked with plates, glasses, serving platters, silverware, and pots/pan to cook with. This was a nice surprise as most rentals do not have all those items. All appliances in the kitchen worked great and accommodated our large party.The deck was where we spent 90% of our time! It was a great place to sit outside and enjoy the lake views. Being able to walk to main street within seconds was extremely convenient and made exploring lake placid so much easier.Our whole group agreed we would recommend this house to anyone! It was certainly worth the price.

Great location & amazing property. 6 adults and 4 small children fit very comfortably. We cooked all of our meals in the home. Kitchen and amenities were great. We enjoyed the balcony at night looking out onto the lake. Very accessible to in town activities I.e. kayaking on the lake, public beach, restaurants and shops. Absolutely recommend!
