A week of hiking in the Adirondacks
Enjoyed a relaxing stay, the house is well equipped, clean and cozy. Went into Wilmington to swim, played pickle ball in Jay, went up Cloud-splitter gondola. Lots of fun for the whole family.

Wonderful week
We had two families stay at the chalet, and we enjoyed our time, the location, the suite house, and the property. We enjoy vintage homes, and so we found this one charming. We enjoyed the open kitchen, and really appreciated the view off of the back porch. We certainly recommend this place!

Phenomenal Stay!
The property was amazing. It has been recently been updated so it was even nicer than what the listing showed, which was a great bonus. Great property with plenty of space and all the amenities you need. The hosts were very easy to communicate with, check-in in was seamless, and the home was beautiful. The home is perfect for a group, family, or even just a couple. We had high expectations, and this home and the hosts far exceeded them. We will definitely be staying again on our next trip to the Adirondacks.

Quaint yet modern!
My girlfriends and i stayed in the cabin for my bachelorette party and it was just what we were looking for. Two bathrooms, plenty of beds for the girls to have their own space, fully equipp3d kitchen for all our cooking needs, pull through driveway, and so close to all the hikes and adventure! Five star.
