Beautiful, clean home with lovely winter decor. Nice view of the lake. Easy access to cross country ski trails and a very short drive to town. The resort restaurant is good with friendly staff. Comfortable bedrooms and great layout for family. Nicer than even the photos conveyed. Host was friendly and helpful. A great find!

Great Accommodations in ADK

My family of 6 + infant had a perfect mid-summer vacation. Camp Owl's Nest is a unique property that combines a rustic cabin experience with elegant accommodations.The included membership to the Whiteface Club & Resort is a super perk. We worked a lot into 4 days: golf, tennis, fly fishing, hiking, sightseeing and fine dining. Only complaint: interior lighting is too dim.

Super comfy spot in LP

Beautiful cabin type property minutes from town! What I think I loved the most about the property is the upstairs and downstairs can be basically separate, so if you have a younger audience they can do their own thing and come in and out of the home without disturbing who's upstairs. Loved it

Amazing!

We had the most amazing time. The place is huge and beautifully decorated with top of the line amenities. The outdoor screened in room with a large stone fireplace was my favorite. It was raining while we were there so it allowed us to be outside, but stay warm and cozy. I could go on an on about how top notch Owl's Nest is. Andrew, the owner, was so pleasant to speak with. I can't wait to go back again!

Dream Stay in Lake Placid

Our stay at Owl’s Nest was nothing short of exceptional. The home is impeccably maintained, beautifully Adirondack designed, and offers majestic views that make it truly special. The location is unbeatable—close to everything yet perfectly serene.Andrew and his wife went above and beyond to ensure everything was in perfect working order, making our stay completely seamless. Having previously owned a home in Lake Placid, I know the area well, and I was genuinely surprised by how incredible this property is. It exceeded every expectation!If you're looking for the ultimate Lake Placid retreat, look no further. This is a true gem, and we can’t wait to return!

ADK luxury!

We had an incredible stay! The house is absolute perfection. We celebrated Christmas with our family here and loved having two kitchens and living spaces so that we had a place to gather when our baby was asleep in the master bedroom. The house is stunning- the pictures don’t do it justice. It is beautifully decorated and has everything you need. We were happily surprised by the 3 Christmas trees! The beds are incredibly comfortable, the fireplaces are beautiful, and the view of lake placid is awesome. It’s the perfect mountain mansion!

Everything as expected!!

We had a lovely stay at Camp Owl's nest. House was clean and well appointed. It handled our large crowd (10 adults) with no problems. Andrew was super accommodating. Views from the living room were lovely when it wasn't snowing. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone who wants to spend some time in Lake Placid with a large group. Thank you Andrew for sharing your lovely home with us!!!!
