The property is beautiful and a quick drive to Main Street. We were comfortable and had many of the necessary amenities. The check-in process does require you to pick up the keys from the property management company but it was a quick ride from there to the house.

Our family stayed here with our children. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the property, as well as the size. It was larger than expected, and had great areas to lounge and hangout it. The beds were comfy and rooms were good sizes. Located a short drive to Lake Placid, where there are lots of fun things to do. The owner was extremely prompt when I had questions. Would be happy to stay at this home again in the future.

Appliances need updating.Cleaning fee was steep due to the fact that we were required to do some of the tasks including making sure that dishes were emptied from dishwasher which were not upon our arrival. Remotes batteries need replacing.

We went to Lake Placid to see the eclipse (and were not disappointed) and this condo was perfect for our stay. The kids enjoyed the game room and the adults enjoyed the comfortable seating and fireplace on the main level. Everything was clear and neat as a pin, and the managers were proactive in making sure we had everything we needed.

The house was newly remodeled. It was clean and cozy. Everyone felt as if they were in their own house. Great layout and everything, highly recommend to everyone. One issue was with the bathroom door knobs, the doors would not close or lock.

Our family of five stayed at this property from December 23rd to the 29th.
It was the perfect space for a ‘home away from home’ for Christmas. Super clean, the main living area is open plan with lots of big windows that give views of the woods that back up to the condo. It was so relaxing sitting on the giant, comfy couch watching the snow flurries.
The kitchen was great and the downstairs game room was perfect with its own tv, a pool table, ping pong and lots of games.
One of our favorite things was the radiant floor heating. No need for slippers:)
It was also close to town. Literally a five minute drive to the nearest food market.
This was the perfect space for us. Check in was super easy and Helen, who was our contact, was wonderful. She made sure we had everything we needed!
Overall, a perfect stay. We hope to do it again soon.
Thank you and thank you Helen, for everything:)

This was a great property for our thanksgiving stay. The space was perfectly set up. The kitchen had everything we needed. The couch was VERY comfy! We loved playing ping pong. The short trail out back took us to a walking path which was perfect for our dogs. We highly recommend the property.

Excellent location and nice townhouse. Spacious, well stocked.
I wish I had understood there was an HOA, as the rental agreement also had noise restrictions and some parking constraints for one of our friends in the area that came to visit. Overall great spot.
