About this property

*****Note*** September 2023***** Last spring we replaced the woodstove with a brand new unit. We recently replaced all of the beds with brand new frames, mattresses and box springs. We also upgraded the kitchen and now have a complete set of GreenPan Cookware. In case you've never heard of it, it's great stuff! We also have recently refinished the floor and upgraded the heating system, which probably doesn't matter to you, but we are excited about it. :)

Enjoy the Adirondack lifestyle in this brand new, secluded log cabin. Located at the end of a 150 foot driveway on a quiet road in “Ausable Acres”, the Cayuga Cabin provides a quiet getaway but is close to all the High Peaks attractions. If a half a dozen cars go by, thats a busy day. Pets are welcome.

The Cayuga Cabin comes completely furnished for any length stay - full kitchen with great cookware, dishwasher and clothes washer/dryer, gas grill and even a whirlpool tub are on the premises. Two TV’s with cable make the Cayuga Cabin very family friendly. There are two bedrooms on the main floor, one with a queen, the other a double. There are two singles in the loft. Second bath is in the basement.

The Cayuga Cabin is a 5 minute walk to fishing access in the renowned West Branch of the Ausable River and 20 minutes to Whiteface Mountain, Santa’s Workshop and High Falls Gorge. The Olympic Village of Lake Placid is less than 25 minutes as is Ausable Chasm – the nation’s oldest natural attraction. Montreal, Quebec and Burlington, Vermont are easy day trips. The finest hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing and cross-country skiing in the High Peaks are all at your fingertips. When you come home from a day of Adirondack adventure relax on the spacious deck or in the whirlpool tub.

Within the Ausable Acres development you have access to several hiking and cross-country skiing trails, tennis courts and the Lake Eaton Picnic & Playground area. For the golfer there are 6 courses ranging from 30 to 60 minutes away.

10 minutes away is the “Jay swimming hole” on the East Branch of the Ausable River which was listed in Sports Illustrated as on of the top 10 swimming holes in the US. This is also the site of the Jay Covered Bridge, recently refurbished and a beautiful place to spend an afternoon.

Solar eclipse

This was the perfect quiet slice of heaven to watch the total eclipse. The owner Rick was helpful and amenable. It was just the right place for us, tucked away from the crowds, but close enough to the surrounding towns.

First Weekend of Spring

and it snowed the whole time :) Which is OK with me! I was headed to Lake Placid for the weekend, but planned late so I had to stay further away than I would normally choose to do. It all turned out for the best. The cabin was both nicer, and bigger, than the pictures convey, and the property/neighborhood are nice and forested/private. The drive into Lake Placid was easy, despite the snow. A nice place to which I would gladly return.

Close to Whiteface and all things the area has to offer. Teenagers had a great time hanging out in the yard. Owners were great to deal with.

Lake Placid Vacation

Overall it was reasonably priced. Great location and an easy drive to all the touristy things to do in the area. In one location on VRBO it read “hot tub” but in other locations it read jetted tub. It’s a jetted bath tub, normal size for a tub. Second bathroom is in basement and the same room as utility/laundry room. The shower in the basement is very small. For short people like me, not an issue, but for my husband it was a bit difficult. We realize it’s a cabin that may not always get rented out. However we did have to rewash all the pots/pans and the stove (did a heavy cleaning in bottom stove drawer and around burners for caked on debris and rodent droppings), as well as the inside of all of the bedroom drawers due to rodent droppings. Mice had also made a bed in a box of Kleenexes in one of the rooms. Again, with cabins we understood mice would get in from time to time, so that wasn’t an issue. It was more so that in the stove drawer for example, there was A LOT. Overall it’s a super cute cabin, tucked away and a great get a way.

About the host

Hosted by Rick & Sue

My wife Sue and I moved into the Adirondacks in 2002 after living on the shores of Lake Champlain in Plattsburgh, NY for 10 years. Not a bad place to live at all but it was time for a change. We fell in love with the Adirondacks, and specifically 'Ausable Acres' on our first visit. You will too. It is quiet, wooded with wildlife everywhere.

Why they chose this property

We purchased the undeveloped lot in 2004 and completed our log home in 2006. We are very proud of ourselves :) We take great satisfaction in the complements we get from our most wonderful past guests.

What makes this property unique

The Cayuga Cabin is completely furnished. The kitchen is equipped with all pots, pans, utensils right down to coffee filters and dish-washing detergent. All linens and towels are provided as is toilet paper, paper towel and tissues along with bottled hand soap. There is a washer & dryer and detergent in the 2nd bathroom. All you need to bring are clothes & food! We also have an outdoor shower and provide wood for the woodstove and outdoor firepit.
