Full kitchen opens onto dining room and huge living room. Fantastic views of the pond from your sofa or the backyard. Two sets of sofas so the kids can play on their computers while the adults relax. Bathroom downstairs has a large gorgeous shower with a glass block wall.
Pond (shallow entry on our side) is perfect for kayaks, canoe or stand up paddle boards (provided).

Enjoy a cup of coffee on the dock or take the kayaks or the canoe out for a ride in the summer.
Easy walk to downtown Lake Placid to enjoy shopping or nightlife. Easy 10-15 minute walk to the Olympic center or Lake Placid beach. The walk is up hill on the way into town and down hill on the way home!

About the host
Hosted by Terry Vellone & Bridget DeGroot
We have kids and love outdoor activities! Placid is the perfect place for us. We started running a few years ago and ran our first half marathon in Lake Placid last year. It was incredible!! The views were beautiful and the climb up the last hill to the Olympic oval for the final lap was well worth it.
Why they chose this property
Lake Placid is a great place to vacation any time of year. Excellent winter sports and a great Olympic spirit, fun summer activities and great hiking all year round. Downtown Lake Placid has great shops, restaurants, a movie theatre, night time ice skating, or a beach on Mirror Lake for swimming in the summer, plus fun bars and dancing. There are plenty of activities for kids and adults, you never run out of things to do!
What makes this property unique
Our house is on Mill Pond. You can walk into town for dinner or shopping. The kids can walk to the movie theatre in town, or a bowling alley close to the house. The pond is beautiful and peaceful. Lots of waterfowl, feed the ducks from the dock, do a little fishing with the kids or go out on the canoe or kayaks. The town has a beach on Mirror Lake and this is walking distance as well. In the winter go snowshoeing, skiing, sledding all nearby.
