Great family vacation!

My family had a wonderful stay at the Sci Sci Chalet! Very comfortable with all the amenities we needed to keep 4 adults and one pre-teen happy. Location was amazing and we were able to walk almost everywhere we went. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something close to all of the action, but still quiet, quaint and with the Adirondack feel. We even had a family of deer that visited daily!

Family weekend

All of us ladies enjoyed our stay. Your chalet is very welcoming. It was an easy walk to Main street where we enjoyed shopping and eating. At night we sat outside by the campfire and had a doe walk through the back yard! We hope to return next year.

Wonderful Week in Old Forge

My family and I loved our stay at the Chalet! The location was a perfect mix of seclusion on the Moose River and convenience of being walking distance to all of the hot spots in Old Forge! The Chalet is a well built and maintained camp. I loved the outdoor areas where we enjoyed nature and the beautiful Moose River. I would definitely do it again.

Cute cottage

Cute cottage, but you are required to bring linens (which I don’t believe is clearly stated in the listing) and there is no process in place for trash— unless you happen to be departing Friday morning, the host requires that you bring your trash with you or drop it at the transfer station. However, the host doesn’t even leave tags for the transfer station: you need to go to the town hall (closed on weekends). That process needs improvement.

Chalet in a Perfect Location

This chalet is a fantastic rustic yet very comfortable place to stay just off the main strip in Old Forge. The interior is a great layout a flat screen TV, fireplace, dinnette with all the required amenities to eat in, relax & watch a movie, or play family board games. Fire pit was great for doing S'mores and both decks are perfect to enjoy your coffee in the morning. The location is on quiet backstreets for walking with kids. Various local shops /eateries, Kinney Drugs and FastTrac are all walk-able. Owners communicated well throughout the process; we have already recommended to others and would request again.

Cozy cabin on Moose River

Great property on the Moose River with walking distance to Old Forge shops and restaurants. We enjoyed the views, and fire pit overlooking the property. Deer casually roaming around the neighborhood. Great space for a girls trip. The cabin has everything we needed for our getaway. Highly recommend this place and even better if you bring your Kayaks. Great hikes very close by.

Spring Break Fun

We had a wonderful long weekend at the cabin. The cabin is modern, clean, and centrally located to all of the fun. It is so unique to have quiet waterfront property in town and be able to walk to the coffee shop! We enjoyed hiking, fishing, catching a movie, and shopping at the famous hardware store. We hope to be back soon.

A wonderful winter week

We had a wonderful winter week stay at the Sci Sci Chalet. It was clean, comfortable, quiet, and had a cook’s kitchen. Having the grocery store within walking distance was really nice. We hope to return this year with warmer weather to enjoy kayaking the beautiful Moose River right from the back yard. We had a wonderful time skiing and spending time with family.
