Best seal of approval is that we go every year, and we DO. Private setting, roomy house, easy kitchen to cook in, grill on the deck, and accessible to a lot of places if you want to skip that for the day. It is very easy to relax in this place, plenty to do if you are stuck in on rainy days, spacious enough to spread out, and the dogs love it. We never want for more when staying here. Perfect.
There were eight of us for an extended weekend. I did message through VRBO the evening before we went and never got a response. We liked the location, it definitely was secluded. We were pleasantly surprised that there is a Tops less than 15 min away. There was adequate space, and the basement with the pool table was a bonus. A couple things to note- the beds were not very comfortable or quiet, but after hiking all day we did sleep some. The bathrooms were packed with plenty of towels and clean. The kitchen was functional but the pans were in rough shape. There is a coffee maker and Keurig. I only brought regular ground coffee and the coffee pot was gross with burned on coffee crusted in the bottom. One of the screens on the sliding doors was stuck. I would say all in all, it was a nice place for the price, the solitude was great. It would just take a few improvements to make it much better.
Cabin is larger than it appears, easily fit my family and dogs. Nestled in the woods but close to major roads. Very close to Gore Mt. Owners are very quick to respond to any questions. Enjoyed our stay
Very nice place. We rented it multiple times. We will be there next year again. Skiing at Gore Mountain.

Last minute booking
The house is lovely knotty pine throughout. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware. Many of our bakery and breakfast items were invaded by ants and thus inedible; even when food was placed in the microwave.The online write up said there would be fans for the bedroom windows. The was only 1 fan for 4 bedrooms. Luckily we were able to borrow 2 from a cousin: it was very hot .When I arrived on Wednesday afternoon my bedroom heaters were on and I didn't know how to turn off. Thank goodness my son in law turned off the next day. I texted the number I had for owner. No response.All in all we were so happy to have found this last minute rental as our original reservation with Inn at Gore Mountain was abruptly cancelled,with no explanation or warning.The downstairs pool table was enjoyed by the men and the children enjoyed the impressive number of movies.I would stay here again and I can imagine it is a wonderful winter ski getaway.
Coffee pot was not cleaned, 2 nd floor full bed has an old mattress and they said that they rolled into the middle. It’s an overall nice woodsy cabin. We would stay there again knowing what we’re in store for. A very fair price, with an excellent location to lake George and Gore mountain. Dogs welcome is a plus also

It was nice. It had all the amenities needed. We would definitely stay here again.
Lovely Adirondack cabin the was well stocked and very cozy. Just a short drive to Gore and several restaurants. We had 6 people in 4 bedrooms but there were futons available to easily sleep 10. Great place.

We had a good time, it is a log cabin - seemed like staying in the wilderness! The location is very close to Gore Mountain.
Had a wonderful stay with family to go skiing at Gore Mountain. Coming back to this cottage was just what was needed at the end of a long day of skiing. Plenty of room and charming cottage. We are looking forward to future trips.
Loved the privacy in the woods with area for our dog to walk. Used as base camp for driving to historic sites during the day. Within range of several small towns with restaurants.
This cabin/home is very conveniently located for skiing at Gore and exploring this part of the Adirondacks! We also appreciated the extras for the downtime, like the pool table and selection of movies and games. Thanks for a great stay!

The cabin could use a good cleaning. The mattresses need to be updated. We loved the location and having the dog with us.

About the host
Hosted by Jeffrey & Ellen Taylor
My wife & I grew up in the hustle & bustle of New Jersey/New York City. we rented the home once a year & when it went on the market, we jumped at the opportunity to buy. We hope you enjoy the Chalet as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
This Chalet is right in the middle of the action.You have all the ski areas ,Schroon lake to the north, Lake George to the south, Lake Placid one hour north, white water rafting on the Hudson, hiking trails all around, fine restaurants at Lake George. The Chalet is hidden on 15 acres of solitude. It's a home away from home
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with the chalet because there are no real neighbors.
