About this property

Birdsong -spacious & welcoming- your High Peaks getaway

Set just off the main road, Birdsong is tucked away but easy to find. Built in 1990, the layout is ideal for how we live and play. The living space is spacious and comfy. With ample seating, Internet ready TV, high speed internet, a dedicated work space, games and books for all ages you will feel right at home.
Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail while sitting in front of the warm and cozy gas fireplace. With an extremely well appointed kitchen, stocked by a foodie who loves to cook, making meals won’t feel like a chore at all!

The expansive mud room is perfect for stowing your outdoor gear (please take off shoes before entering the main part of the home). 3 1/2 baths ensure there’s no waiting in the morning. Up the main staircase are three bedrooms (#1 with a king bed, #2 with a twin/full bunk bed and #3 with queen plus twin bed), two full bathrooms and conveniently located laundry facilities. Accessed from a separate staircase, bedroom #4 boasts a queen bed and ensuite full bathroom. New mattresses and ample bedding guarantee a great night’s sleep throughout your stay at Birdsong.

With high speed internet and a dedicated workspace, it's easy to work remotely while enjoying your time in the Adirondacks. A generator ensures that even an unexpected storm won't interfere with important work obligations.

While we share a driveway with our neighbors, we have ample parking at Birdsong. Just make sure to pull all the way onto our property and there is plenty of room for 4-5 cars. During the winter months, snow tires/all wheel drive/4 wheel drive is helpful as the driveway is a bit steep.

Near neighbors, this is not a party house. We ask all guests to be respectful of the full time residents living nearby and treat the house as if it was your home. Please respect the quiet hours between 11pm and 7am.
Relax in the hammock or enjoy the fire pit while sitting in a quintessential Adirondack chair. Dog lovers, we welcome well behaved dogs that are under your control. The yard is unfenced and with the nearby road and the frequent visits from wildlife, please keep your pet on a leash at all times. There is a $50 per pet additional fee at booking.

Forget something essential or hankering for a taste of Upstate NY’s best ice cream? Stewarts is just across the street (.4 miles). Need something from the grocery store but don’t want to take the time too drive far? Valley Grocery is just 8 minutes away and has everything you need. Looking for a night out? Explore the local eateries of Keene, Elizabethtown or venture into nearby Lake Placid for an evening on the town. See our list of favorites for some ideas of nearby attractions.
NOTE: There is a video doorbell that monitors the front of the home.

DAKS I’ve climbing
Perfect location for a winter ice climbing trip with climbing friends. Ideal launch point for top rope as well as many multi-pitch climbs. Would also be an excellent location for fishing the AuSable river in the warmer weather.

Weekend in Keene
This experience was great. My family was in town for Ironman Lake Placid, and this quiet property was the perfect fit. Julie was very helpful and accessible throughout the whole process! A special highlight for us was the kitchen. It’s stocked much better than any other property we’ve visited. Highly recommend!

Both house and hosting exceptional
We were a group of 5 elder men enjoying daily snowshoe treks in the nearby wilderness areas. The spaciousness of Birdsong, along with its numerous bedrooms, baths, and communal sitting area made for a very comfortable stay. This lodge is very clean with a large kitchen exceptionally well-stocked with appliances and cook gear. We cooked all of our meals there with ease. Lisa, our host, responded quickly and kindly to all of our questions The house rules were minimal and clearly articulated. An ideal place for a group our size accommodating our needs for both privacy and communal engagement!

Family Christmas 2023
Julie was awesome to work with, very responsive to any questions, etc There was plenty of room for sleeping our group of 8. The kitchen is stocked with everything you might need for meals and prep. Seating in the family room space is challenging for a big group but we managed to make it work. The house is conveniently located to the outdoor winter activities that Lake Placid has to offer. Our group went ice skating, dog sledding, bobsledding and of course skiing on whiteface. It was a wonderful trip and we enjoyed our stay at Birdsong very much.

Birdsong was Music to Our Ears!
Birdsong was the perfect place to have a reunion. Plenty of space, had everything we needed, good layout for a large group with plenty of bathrooms. Convenient to everything we wanted to do, but also private enough to relax and unwind. After a long day, it was so warm and comfortable to come back to. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
