Beautiful view
Lovely property; lots of room for dogs to run if you want them off leash. House had minimal but adequate kitchen and bath accommodations. No shower which I wish I'd known beforehand. Soaking tub was delightful but not easy to wash hair. Kyle was onsight to help as needed. The view is unparalleled!
We had a wonderful stay in Elizabethtown! The amenities were fantastic! We loved the deck and the view of the mountains! All the information regarding the property was very helpful and easy to understand. We especially appreciated the information regarding the local restaurants, shopping, and things to do in the area. The place was very quaint and cozy especially when the weather turned cooler. We made great use of the fireplace! Wi-Fi worked great! We are planning on coming back next fall!

Extraordinary VRBO Experience!
LOCATION … LOCATION … LOCATION!!! That’s what we look for in a VRBO and Kyle’s place nails it! It’s hard to imagine anything better in a VRBO than sitting on that deck taking in that glorious view! Now the space has some limitations … no AC … no shower … limited kitchen facilities … uncomfortable fold out bed … but that all was ok with us. We look for location above all else and this place delivers in spades!
Kyle’s place has a lot of class … it’s tucked in the woods and feels remote and peaceful … it’s located on the edge of the high peaks … just 30 minutes east of Lake Placid … and Kyle was an exceptional on-location host. Staying there was an extraordinary VRBO experience and we are grateful!

Bliss
I had an extended stay that was a combination of a solo work retreat mixed with family weekend adventures. The property is ridiculously gorgeous, the hosts were so warm and welcoming, communication was great, and it’s in the middle of way too many options for getting out and enjoying the Adirondacks. I miss seeing those mountains every morning and can’t wait to return!
