About this property

An Elevated & Inviting Adirondack Retreat ideal for Friends & Family, Lake Views

Set commandingly across from Mirror Lake, guests enjoy front row seats to spectacular lake and southern Adirondack range views, combined with a sought after village location that is walking distance to Main street shops, restaurants and olympic venues.

A recent guest shared this message during their stay, "The house is beautiful and challenges our motivation to be outside." We totally get it, happens to us too. Lake gazing never gets old!

Ample in scale, yet comfortable and inviting, this is a great spot to relax, unwind and reconnect with friends and family. Greystone Lodge features two stone fireplaces, an open floor plan, abundant natural light and exceptional living spaces for family and friends. A gourmet kitchen is complemented by a formal dining table with seating for 8 while the 5 furnished outdoor areas provide multiple opportunities for gathering. 4 BR, 4.5 BA, 5 furnished outdoor spaces, 4 car parking including heated garage with EV charger. 15 minutes to Whiteface Ski.

4 spacious and well appointed bedrooms:
1. Main floor Suite (king) includes a custom fireplace, walk in closet, private screened porch and full bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub and a walk in shower with separately controlled dual shower heads.

2 & 3. The second floor features two beautiful guest suites (queen bed), each with a generously sized walk in closet (built in shelving, ample hanging space and hangers) and an ensuite full bathroom. Private from each other and the rest of the home. The 2nd floor loft lounge area and balcony, combined with these bedrooms makes for a really lovely space for guests.

4. Lower level bunk room is huge and boasts three bunks (each is a twin over full bed) with an adjacent full bath.

These are 4 real bedrooms, not just a space with a bed added.

And more: There is a mountain of pillows to choose from (two for each bed plus extras), high end linens and each bedroom has its own sitting area, thermostat  (radiant in floor heating), room darkening shades or blinds and two full size dressers in addition to closets making for a comfortable and effortless travel experience.

Entertain friends and family: loft living room with lounge & balcony and loads of board games & puzzles; main floor living room with TV, fireplace, abundant seating, beautiful views; and a lower level family room equipped with game rooms  (ping pong, pool table, foosball) and a movie/game console lounge space. Host your own tournament of champions or a relaxing movie night with popcorn. 5 furnished outdoor spaces with views of beautiful Mirror Lake offer a perfect place to relax after a day of telecommuting or a rigorous day of outdoor activity.

Ideal for a luxury break, Greystone Lodge is convenient to 4-Seasons of outdoor activities and is a great location for family friendly day trips, beautiful scenic drives and is an easy walk to local shops & restaurants, or enjoy one of our favorites, relax with the view.   In the winter, you are steps away from walking right onto Mirror Lake for some winter wonderland adventure and in the summer grab one of our lake floats and head to the sandy beach or pop in along the way. 15 minutes to Whiteface ski and walking distance to Olympic oval & rinks.

The kitchen is well stocked for baking, grilling and family meal prep and includes a 6 burner gas stove with two ovens, an island that seats 5, and an adjacent screened porch with a propane grill and outdoor dining area. A coffee break couldn't be easier, chose from an espresso pot, french press, drip coffee maker or a keurig machine. We cook, bake and grill A LOT and love that we have space for multiple chefs and can comfortably entertain family and friends while whipping up a meal. A large 8 seat dining area completes the main level.

Got Gear? Winter gear? Summer gear? Our heated garage is the unsung essential amenity for an ADK winter. EV charging available. Take advantage like a group of NCAA skiers who set up their ski-tuning operation in the garage or like a group of outdoor enthusiasts traveling with 6 custom bikes, 4 bulky golf bags and one sportsman's lifetime collection of fishing gear, all stashed and staged securely and conveniently, allowing our guests to come and go easily between activities.

Our home away from home is fully furnished and equipped with more than just the essentials to make this a great getaway for family and friends. A few of the welcome extras include: waffle maker, spice drawer, grill w/propane, kitchen-aid mixer & baking pans, loads of board games & puzzles, picnic basket & beach towels, Sonos speakers & Lutron lighting, shampoo, conditioner & hair dryer in each full bath. All beds dressed and ready to go making for an effortless stay in beautiful Lake Placid.

Great place to stay - highly recommend!
Our family truly enjoyed this home! It was very clean, easy check in process, great communication with owner and great proximity to everything in Lake Placid. We are tough critics, and we absolutely loved staying in this home. If we’re ever back in LP, we will definitely stay at this house again!

Beautiful Home
This is a great property, very spacious, well equipped kitchen. Great view of the Lake. Location is within walking distance to Town. Definitely not baby proof. We were enough people to supervise the little ones, so that wasn't a problem for us. The Host was very responsive. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to go back some day.

About the host

Hosted by Greystone Lodge

Host profile image
We are fortunate to spend time here, this is our personal home too, and we try to create an atmosphere that is welcoming, cozy and special.

We are grateful to all our guests and we genuinely hope you enjoy the Adirondacks as much as we do and return to the area again and again.

We work hard to receive great reviews, when we do we are grateful and appreciative. It is the result of a lot of hard work. Our cleaning crew is top notch, professional, and a pleasure to work with. As owners and hosts, we are on top of maintenance and improvements, both large and small, from our annual refinishing of exterior furniture to our regular walkthroughs with a paint brush and patch kit.

Guest ready hospitality makes for a noteworthy getaway and we embrace our role as informal ambassadors to our beloved area. As a recent guest messaged us, "couldn't be more pleased with our choice. Thank you for a fantastic family trip." IG: Greystone_LakePlacid

Why they chose this property

Love Lake Placid! Lake gazing never gets old! Ski, snowboard, sled & skate. Fish, paddle, golf, hike & bike. Relax with the view. Be at the top of Whiteface in no time flat. A golf game at your fingertips, just around the corner. Watch the Ironman from your front row seat. Stroll into town for some of the best local food around while enjoying a shop or two along the way.

What makes this property unique

This is a fantastic house, we really feel like we get away up here. Grand and spacious yet cozy. Great floor plan. Really large bedroom suites. Walk-in closets! Gorgeous lake view. Room for everyone. Five different outdoor spaces to gather and hang out. Super convenient walk-to-village location but still a very private feel, we don't really 'see' any neighbors the way the home is oriented - just a beautiful view of the lake. Super large kitchen with a giant conversation island - everyone can lend a hand in the kitchen! We get our best sleep up here. We WFH a lot and we love how we can work a full day and still pack in some good morning paddling or evening fishing, have time for an afternoon hike up Cobble Hill or a bit of golf, stroll down to Olympic center for public skate, and so much more.

We think guests will love:
- multi level floor plan allows hosting family and friends with comfort and ease: private bedroom suites, three separate lounge/living room areas, dining area, dining porch and kitchen island seats five, cozy sitting areas in each bedroom, heated garage for cars or gear, game rooms (that are in the home not converted garage space).
- behind the scenes: Lutron lighting including PICO switches, these are awesome and make dealing with lighting in an unfamiliar location a breeze; radiant in floor heat with 14 individual thermostats allowing maximum control for guests; AC for three of four bedrooms, a rarity in the Adirondacks (note: lower level bedroom maintains natural coolness); FANTECH, a whole home fresh air appliance, if you know you know - a real plus; two humidifiers for guest use; great WIFI with boosters placed strategically to ensure great coverage throughout the entire home.
