A lovely house in a great location
We are a family group of 5 ( 1 dog) who get together every year in late May just to be together. We cook and walk and play games and laugh and this was the place to do all of that. The 4 bedrooms were comfortable and attractive. The shared bath on the first floor was adequate, and the en suite bath in the primary bedroom was pretty amazing; the shower is gorgeous! There is a nice game room and a porch on the ground level looking out on the lake, but we spent most of our time on the upper level where the well-equipped kitchen and living/dining area was. The views of the lake from both floors were spectacular.The lake access is perfect. It was too cold in late May to even consider swimming, but there were kayakers and boaters out when the weather was good. The lake looked clean, with a sandy bottom.The rooms all had individual controls for the electric baseboard heat, which suited us fine. Everyone got what she wanted. Both Lake Placid and Saranac Lake are a reasonable drive, and we spent time in both towns, just doing touristy things. We ate one night at the River Trail Beerworks in Saranac Lake. It's much more than a brewery, and the food is excellent. This was a great experience. Leo (the host) is very responsive to email queries, and, while we did our best to leave the premises neat and tidy, we were not required to clean. That's big!
