About this property

Log Cabin on the Ausable River

Original 2 bedroom log cabin on the Ausable River. This charming log cabin is located on Hulls Falls Road, a quiet back road, that is picturesque perfect. You will find some of the area's best swimming, scenery, and fly fishing in the area.
The cabin has a beautiful river rock fireplace in the spacious living room which makes for a great meeting room for games, conversation, and relaxation. There are 2 bedrooms, each with a queen bed, and one full bathroom with a walk in shower and one half bath, both recently renovated. The living room also has 1 fold out futon.
The kitchen boasts authenticity with a unique antler light fixture, exposed beams, all wrapped in natural wood. Everything you might need for preparing your own meals is stored away in the abundant kitchen cabinets. Two coffee makers, a microwave, mixer, blender, wine glasses, etc., it is all there for your use.
The lush outdoors invites you to sit and enjoy the sights and sounds while sitting on the screened porch or the detached deck overlooking the river. There is plenty of room for setting up your volleyball or badmitton net, or throw a few frisbies around on the open playground next to the river. An open firepit is great for long summer evening conversations or roasting marshmallows with the kids.

The best!

Fabulous location. Well furnished and supplied. Cozy and Adirondack decor without being tacky, even the tiny bears were cute. Listening to the river was awesome. Hiking the peaks was sublime and then coming home and resting in this lovely lovely space.

Weekend stay

My partner and I came out to the mountains for the weekend and I don’t think we could’ve picked a better place to stay! Bob’s cabin was nothing short of amazing! A cozy log cabin with a beautiful view of the Ausable River and a short drive to any number of local towns and trailheads! Bob was a great host and he provided as much information as anyone could possibly ask for. 10/10 would recommend this cabin for your next stay and I can’t wait to book again and spend more time there!!

Charming rustic cabin

Authentic rustic log cabin with a modern kitchen/bathroom addition and a nice location across the road from the river. Great for one or two people but could be a bit cramped with any more.

Nice relaxing stay in a rustic log cabin on the Ausable River.

The cabin is rustic but very clean. Every dish in the kitchen was sparkling, which is not always the case with rentals. The area is lovely . If you are looking for a slow pace and a beautiful environment, this is it.

About the host

Hosted by Bob Giroux

Host profile image
This property has been in the family for over 20 years. I recently purchased it from other family members as it is a favorite of mine when visiting the area. Having lived in Alaska for over 40 years, I love the great outdoors and this property rivals much of what we see and love in Alaska. Its' proximity to Lake Placid makes it ideal for those wanting to enjoy the restaurants, shopping, and other amenities Lake Placid has to offer. Its' location makes it ideal for the nature lover.

Why they chose this property

We love the old time feeling of the cabin, but love having the wireless interenet and the cable TV to keep us up-to-date.

What makes this property unique

The roar of the cascading water in the river is music to the ear. The beauty of the trees, foilage, and river is mesmerizing. The long walks along Hulls Falls Road are food for the soul and the body.
