Property was perfect for a weekend of hiking, photography, and R&R. Everything was very clean and well appointed. Owner was friendly, communicative, and made sure we had all the info we would need to have a great stay. My only criticism would be to add some reflectors to the end of the driveway to make it easier to find at night.

A wonderful week away with family

The house is even more impressive in person! I love all of the unique details throughout like the moose drawer pulls in the main level bathroom. The owner was very responsive with my questions beforehand. I would definitely stay here again!

Amazing Keene Chalet

This was an amazing property! It was clean, beautiful, spacious and well appointed. It was perfect for our extended family that included 2 small children and 6 adults. We enjoyed the sound system, the fireplace and the fabulous kitchen. The decor was so tasteful and perfect for a mountain home. We’d love to stay there again!

Despite the previous renters having a party, the house was in great condition! Super clean! The renter had excellent communication and the stay was amazing! Could not have asked for a better price to stay! Check in was a breeze. And the kitchen has anything you would need.

What a beautiful place! It accommodated everyone comfortably with adequate privacy when needed. The detail put into this house was amazing. We were able to enjoy the fantastic views just sitting on the porch. The trails on the property and surrounding area were beautiful. About 25 minutes from Lake Placid. Highly recommend this place.

Great Retreat!!

Everything about this property was top-notch, from the location to the Adirondack style, to the thoughtful touches throughout. The location in Keene is just a very short ride to Lake Placid, but honestly we didn’t stray too far from home base. There are so many hiking trails nearby, with lovely shops and markets as well. We stocked up on groceries in Saranac Lake at the Aldi there, so didn’t even have to go out for meals. We would highly recommend this home!!
