Excellent place to stay - very quiet even though in a neighborhood. Beds were very comfortable. Very clean kitchen and bathroom. We had a firepit out back. Didn't kayak or canoe there but the view was nice. We would stay there again!

Excellent location

Very nice property off the street just a couple blocks from the Olympic speed skating oval and the ice arenas. We drove to the World Cup ski jump in town while we were there. Everything was excellent. The snow was plowed a couple times during our stay.

The fact that this is our third year in a row booking this home should tell you all you need to know! Each year it seems to get better, and we just love the house. Perfect for the needs of a very athletic family with a dog!

Great Spot!

We loved our stay! The apartment was clean. The beds were comfortable, and the entire floor plan was accommodating. The washer/ dryer were so convenient! We loved being able to step right in the back and having access to a canoe and a kayak- even got to see some otters on one of the rows. It's perfect walking distance to Mirror Lake and and easy drive into town. We already want to go back!

one of our best rentals ever

This apartment is very tastefully decorated, well equipped, and a joy to rent. The beds are comfortable with super soft sheets. It is cozy without being cramped, although six people would be a bit much. We were only three. There is plenty of closet and storage space. The tub/shower has plenty of hot water. The towels are very large and soft. It is quiet being off the street and feels quite private. Although it is on the river, trees block most of the view of the river. The owners are quick to respond to any emails and return phone calls promptly. I met Eric and hi is very nice. The location is excellent as it is just a few blocks from the center of town but is in a quiet, residential neighborhood. Everything is on one floor and it would be a good choice for the mobility impaired as there are no steps to get into the apartment. We had no problems whatsoever and would probably stay here again if we returned to Lake Placid.

Perfect for our family

The house was exactly what my wife and I like to have for us and our two younger kids. Spacious, clean, all amenities needed (including washer and dryer). We made the most of our time in lake placid with the outdoors etc., and this Mill Pond Dr. house was the perfect homebase to regroup, cook, and deploy from. Communication was prompt. No surprises or misleading info from the listing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The unit is accurately described in listing, very clean which is important to us & friendly for our family traveling with 4 humans & 2 small/medium dogs this trip. The furniture and beds are comfortable, with plenty of pillows & extra linens. The kitchen is well stocked with quality pots and pans which made our “at home” meals enjoyable as well. The fire pit with plenty of wood for a campfire was lovely, plus having direct water access with a kayak & canoe is a real bonus for this modest, yet well equipped property! Would definitely stay again!

About the host

Host profile image
As a North Easterner and after spending Eight years living in Thailand, my Thai wife and I moved to Lake Placid.
I've travelled the World as an Airline Pilot and Lake Placid has it all! Great year round activities for the Family.

Why they chose this property

We live here part time now, the location is great for its easy access to Main Street, the Olympic center, skiing, fishing, hiking and restaurants.

What makes this property unique

We are so close to everything that we like to do yet this property is secluded enough for enjoying the quiet Adirondack outdoors. When you are sitting on the dock or by the fire in the evening one really wouldn't believe you are 10 minute walk to Main Street!
