A fun place with cozy cottages close to Whiteface Mountain (skiing) and Lake Placid. Quaint, clean, and cozy. The cottage/chalet was exactly as described and in the pictures online. The wood burning fireplace was great after a day of skiing, with chairs and a sofa surrounding the fireplace. Parking right at your cottage, with a small porch, and easy in/out of the resort to get to the Lake Placid and Wilmington areas. Supplies and restaurants nearby, and a bit of an adventure feel staying at the Wilderness Inn versus a hotel! Great experience!

What a great find. This one room cabin was perfect for our trip to the area! The kitchen was well equipped, the bathroom was spacious (not an afterthought like some other places), and the staff responsive and helpful. Not only was there a wood burning fireplace, but the facility provided firestarters so that newbies like me could get a nice fire in no time! I will also say that after a full day of skiing, the grab ars in the bathroom and deep tub for soaking was very much appreciated! The cabin was well heated and beds comfy. I'm only disappointed that we didn't get to take advantage of the adorable screened in porch for breakfast in the morning! We will have to come back when the weather is warmer for that. Highly recommend this property!

I’d definitely stay again!!
We had a great stay! Highly recommend!! I specifically booked this cabin for the kitchen but didn’t end up cooking. It looked to have all the basics you would need to prep meals. The bed was super comfy, couch was cozy to read and watch tv. Bathroom and shower were all we needed. The cabin was super cute and communication was on point. Less than 5 min to Whiteface and the High falls gorge plus some other trails. Loved it!!

Great place to stay. Homey and quiet and great service. Easy to get in and out. Fireplace was wonderful. Heating was noisy and the bathroom vent seem to suck smoke out of fireplace. No kitchen. Microwave and coffee maker great. Overall a nice cabin. Nice beds and a little upgrade needed in bathroom and rugs

Quaint cozy cabin!
If you are looking for quiet cabin close to Whiteface Mountain you found it. Away from the busy Lake Placid and a beautiful drive. Cozy little rustic cabin. Great communication, all my questions were answered quickly. Loved that we could bring our dogs.
