About this property

Waterfront, Hot Tub, 5 minutes to Whiteface and pet friendly!

“Everest Dream” is where the Bluebirds play!

This Perfect Ski and Waterfront Rental Home offers truly Five Star Accommodations and is located only three miles from Olympic Whiteface Mountain!

It is a two story, 3 bedroom home. It has been designed and furnished with comfort and aesthetics in mind! Our careful selection includes antiques, contemporary pieces and original artifacts from around the world. The richness of the Earth tones welcomes all with its warmth and is in harmony with the surrounding nature.

The casual elegance and comfort of this house makes for a very special experience of Town and Country. 'Everest Dream' is nestled in a valley, in the village of Wilmington , providing breathtaking views of both Whiteface and Stephenson Ranges. It sits on an Acre of private, that is predominantly fenced in with one natural border (vegetation and shore) that includes over 80 feet of shoreline and a private dock on Everest Lake. Favorite among our guest is the 140 square foot fully screened, overlooking water gazebo! Furnished with luxury and comfort in mind.

We are in the heart of the High Peak Region and at the foot of Whiteface Olympic Mountain. Renowned West Ausable River with its' World Class trout fishing is our shoreline. Here you can swim, fish or launch the canoe or kayaks available for you to use - for a mellow paddle or some serious bird watching! Lake Everest Beach with live summer concerts is just across the river. Some prefer to sit on the dock and chat or watch the water roll by. Perhaps later in the evening you'll stoke a fire in one of the two fire pits. The large yard is great for playing croquet, play with children or your animal friends.

In Wilmington, you can submerge in the unique experience of an authentic Adirondack Village. Walking to the store, village library or for a country breakfast at a nearby restaurant brings back the joys of a time gone by in most places but lingers here in the Adirondacks. Lake Placid Village with all that it has to offer is just ten miles away on the most picturesque road of the Adirondacks. Here you can enjoy shopping, dining, arts and crafts, museums, The Olympic Center, golf and mini golf, horse shows, movies, festivals, nightlife, ... or 'in short' - hustle and bustle of this special, lively Olympic Village.

Ground Floor:

An Adirondack style porch, furnished in a comfortable, eclectic manner welcomes all! Perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the mist lift off the mountains, or sip the wine to the evening serenade of cicadas.

Our living room opens up to a majestic, ever changing vista of the Mountains. The easy comfort of a couch and armchairs invites to become one with nature. After the sun goes down one can be entertained by choosing from our collection of movies, music or books. The gas fireplace will add a warmth to the ambiance of the room as well as the people in it.

The antique dinner table sits eight, with room for two more at the kitchen island. Perfect place for the whole family to have an evening of card games, monopoly or good old-fashioned conversation. The kitchen is a state of the art affair. You'll find all the tools and gadgets needed for preparing magnificent meals, few cookbooks as well.

For summer cooking you may want to step out to the deck. There is a gas grill, picnic table and Adirondack chairs grace the beautiful lawn.

Our outdoor six person Hot Tub is everybody's favorite spot.

In our study you'll be surrounded and perhaps inspired by an interesting collection of art, books, or the glow of candle light. By night the queen size futon and hand embroidered screen from India transform it into a comfortable bedroom for two.

The ground floor bedroom, furnished with a casual, country elegance, provides a Queen Size Bed and is easily accessible for those who don't care to climb the stairs.

The main floor has a bathroom with a bathtub.

Second Floor:

The Master Bedroom is truly Masterful! A Queen Size Four Post Bed with a red canopy invites romance and the creation of special memories. The room is inviting and elegant with oriental touches, like the 17th century Chinese traveling chest.

For the little and big kids - a sunny room for happy times! Two sets of bunk beds, where the lower full size bunk folds into a couch during the day. The room is bright with color and hand-made art work from Guatemala.

Bathroom with a shower.

Loved the location and its pet friendliness. Our dog enjoyed the large yard to play in and hiking nearby trails. The hot tub was great after a day of hiking and cycling. Jennifer was very quick to respond to any questions we had. Would definitely come back to stay again.

Very comfortable and the perfect place to stay for fly fishing in summer season 2025. Rivers very low, which made Lake Everest and below the dam the spot to fly fish for big trout. Relaxing on the deck, napping in the gazebo, safe and smooth kayaking, well stocked house and comfy beds made our stay beyond wonderful.

The hot tub was enjoyed by all. Also the fireplace was wonderful, too. The house itself was very nice. The rooms had the Adirondack camp feel. We played Corn hole and spent time on the deck down by the water. We had an eagle fly over while we were outside. We would definitely rent it again if we are in the area. Jennifer was always very responsive.

Great place for fishing & hiking.

We enjoyed hiking every day from the nearby trailheads, as well as fishing for trout in the backyard, kayaking and canoeing. The place is an outdoorsy heaven. My only advice is to make a stop early on in Lake placid for groceries (about 20 minutes away). Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Great stay - dog friendly and beautiful, if a bit windy

We had an amazing time at this property. The house itself was fantastic, spacious, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The yard was a definite highlight with plenty of space for our dogs to run and play. It was great to have a friendly property where our dogs were truly welcome, snd could enjoy the outdoors with us. The location couldn’t have been better — just a short drive from the heart of the Adirondacks, making it super easy to explore the area. We spent several days hiking and loved the variety of trails nearby from easy walks to more challenging climbs. It was the perfect base for outdoor ventures, and having the dogs made it even more special.

Lovely Stay

We stayed here for a week long trip to ski and check out all of the attractions in Lake Placid. We were so close to Whiteface which made every day so great. The home was great and never felt tight. The view in the backyard of the river and the mountain were breathtaking at sunset. We were walking distance to the pizza shop and less than a minute from the convenience store. Great location and beautiful area.

Perfect 50th celebration base camp !

We had a lovely long weekend at Jennifer’s property - the amenities are perfect. We were a group of 6 women and had plenty of room. The property has so many little areas - hot tub, outdoor dining, fire pit, seats by the river and a screened in porch by the river too - making. Larger group easy. The host was easy and pleasant to communicate with - I’m sure we will be back!

Everest Dream

First thing I want to say is my husband and I had a wonderful vacation. The view from the dock was amazing. The kitchen was up to date with plenty of room for a family meal. The bedrooms were cozy and comfortable. There was a problem with the master bedroom air conditioner and our host Jen and Rich heard our concerns and replaced it the next evening. The hot tub seats 4 and would have been perfect for the two of us, but only half of the jets were working. Our host Rich came out to check on it the next evening, but was not able to fix it himself. There was also a problem with pieces of shingles coming off the roof, which were scattered around the hot tub area. We enjoyed the huge lawn with a nice fire pit.

We loved our stay at this cabin! It was super clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. We cooked meals together, played games, had campfires, and spent quiet time reading outside. A peaceful morning kayak was a nice bonus, and we enjoyed walking to the park in town along the river.The little convenience store right around the corner was really handy for last-minute things we forgot (but not adequate for full grocery shopping, so bring what you need). It was a great spot for our family, including our two kids and close to so many fun things to do in the Lake Placid area, hiking trailheads, and lots of sights nearby. We’d definitely stay here again!

Property was great! We would definitely stay again in the future. Everything was clean and had lots of room for our entire family of 6 adults and 3 children 3yrs and under. Loved hanging out on the front porch, the gazebo, the deck overlooking the water and the fire pit. The hottub was a great added bonus! Very convenient to local attractions. We went over to lake placid. High falls gorge and Santa's workshop. We walked over to a pizza restaurant (very good) for dinner one night and drove to the country bears diner for breakfast.

Great Family Getaway

The place was exactly as pictured and described. The owner is extremely easy to communicate with. The fact that it has an overlook of the water with comfortable lawn furniture, a beautiful hot tub, large gazebo, a large lawn, a gas grill, games, a few minutes walk from a playground, and a few minutes drive from Whiteface and mountain climbing - made this the perfect family weekend for our family. The house is well stocked with anything guests could want/need. The place was very clean. Thank you Jen for all of your attention to detail.
