About this property

A lovely place to relax and enjoy the High Peaks

The neighborhood is called Ausable Acres where each home is separated from its neighbors by trees thereby offering considerable privacy. The Acres has a lake, miles of trails for hiking or cross-country skiing and a picnic pavilion area. For fisherpersons, there is access to the Ausable river less than two miles away. Within three miles is a Top’s Supermarket, Stewart’s Gas and Convenience store, movie theatre, pizzeria and liquor store.
The interior of the cabin is constructed with tongue and groove knotty pine throughout. The bedroom has a new queen size log bed. The bathroom is newly remodeled. There is a sitting area with a wood stove, kitchen, dining area, a desk with ample room for writing in your journal or laptop and an area with comfy chairs for just relaxing. The home has a three-zone electric heating system, so a wood fire is optional. There are two USB charging stations and high-speed internet. The kitchen has an electric cooktop, oven, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker, electric tea kettle, dishes and lots of cookware that allow our guests to prepare a home cooked meal or breakfast. In warmer months enjoy relaxing on the front porch or cooking on the gas grill in the side yard which also has a picnic table.
Our cabin is designed for one or two guests. Absolutely no pets are allowed. The loft is not accessible. Please note that neighborhood has a 10pm quiet rule.

Very nice relaxing area, very nice cabin.

We stayed only two nights but really enjoyed our time, the cabin is very nice and the area is gorgeous! We even saw a few deer right in front across the street! Owners are very easy to deal with and communication was great. The cabin has everything you need.

Very clean and beautiful cabin!

The cabin itself was nice, very clean, and had all the amenities I needed to cook dinners and enjoy time by myself. The owners were accommodating and responded quickly to messages. They even mailed an item I accidentally left behind without hesitation! I would absolutely stay here again!

We have been going to the Adirondack for a long time but never explored Jay area. This cabin was easy access, in a lovely neighbourhood. Once in, we felt welcome by the warmth of the decor, cleanliness and a well set kitchen. Thank you for the wonderfull time!

Great place!

The cabin was spotless which is very much appreciated. Everything is provided that one would need for a great stay, all you need to bring is food and clothing. Loved the close proximity to various activities, yet had a feeling of being remote. Would definitely return.

A lovely retreat in the Woods

The Cabin is charming and cozy. I especially loved the knotty pine interior. There was nothing lacking as far as supplies and necessities were plentiful. The furnishings are lovely and tasteful. At first we were nervous when we pulled into the driveway but were delighted as soon as we opened the door and walked into the front room with the wood burning stove. We felt right at home immediately!

Repeat lodgers

Cabin is located in a prime spot, 15-45 minutes from awesome hikes, excellent eats, tourist attractions, historic landmarks, lakes, river, galleries, libraries, Vermont; and it's tucked almost 3 miles off the beaten path. Night sky during new moon should not be missed. We drove out to main road at 1:00 a.m. to see the rest of the sky and more shooting stars.

First visit to Jay ny

It's the cutest cabin at a very nice location. Right next to whiteface mountain and riddled with so many hiking trails. After you check in and you enter the cabin the hosts have this folder filled with so many recommendations on restaurants and trails and attractions which I have used throughout my entire stay. My favorite restaurant was smoked signals. If you love BBQ food definitely need to check them out during your stay. The hosts have two cabins to rent from and the old crow cabin was so beautiful. Will be returning sometime next year for some more hiking and will be a return guest most definitely.

peace and quiet

The Old Crow cabin was just what we wanted and exactly as depicted in the photos. Very clean and quiet, with great restaurants and amenities just a short drive away. The kitchen was complete with every utensil you need, and the bed was great. Slept like a log in the quiet forest! Allan was very attentive to our needs. And I found a book I wrote several years ago in Minnesota in their bookcase!

Cozy cabin and actually large if you have only 2 in your party. Has modern climate control, but wood burning fireplace makes the stay more special and fun! Great location for making day trips to Lake Placid or hiking some of the peaks. Would stay again, thank you!

We were in the area for a wedding and this cabin worked out well for our needs. It is off the beaten path and we were surprised that there wasn’t a TV, so we found it to be very quiet and peaceful! It was clean, there was plenty of space for the two of us, and it included everything we needed for our stay. We would absolutely stay here again, if we ever come back to the area.

Tricia and I have been coming to the Adirondacks for decades. A few years ago we purchased a home near this cabin . We have found so much more to do in the area we decided to purchase The Coleman Cabin and share this amazing place with fellow travelers and adventure seekers.
