Peace on Mill Pond. Easy walk to Town

Waterfront 3BR house with beautiful wood interior. 100 year old house completely renovated inside & out, has comfortable adirondack decor and lots of windows. 3BR sleeps 6 adults + futon sofa sleeps 2 more. Full kitchen opens onto dining room and huge living room. Fantastic views of the pond from your sofa or the backyard. Two sets of sofas so the kids can play on their computers while the adults relax. Bathroom downstairs has a large gorgeous shower with a glass block wall.

Pond (shallow entry on our side) is perfect for kayaks, canoe or stand up paddle boards (provided).

Three bedrooms upstairs means everyone has privacy: one queen bed, one double bed, one bedroom with one full and one twin size bed. Washer / dryer in upstairs bathroom.
Very large mudroom for storing life jackets, snow shoes, skis etc. Plenty of parking off the street for 3 cars.
Enjoy a cup of coffee on the dock or take the kayaks or the canoe out for a ride in the summer.
Easy walk to downtown Lake Placid to enjoy shopping or nightlife. Easy 10-15 minute walk to the Olympic center or Lake Placid beach. The walk is up hill on the way into town and down hill on the way home!

Our Stay

We had a fantastic time at the home. We enjoyed all of the amenities, the view, and the walkability to town. It far exceeded our expectations! We enjoyed kayaking on Mill Pond and saw 2 beavers. There were many baby ducklings that our youngest loved watching swim by. Overall great place!!

Wonderful property close to town

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was cozy and well-appointed. The location was great, within walking distance to town and within easy driving distance of great hiking. The kayaks and SUP were fun and the sauna a special treat. We would definitely stay again!

True to name

This home is true to its name, so peaceful yet in walking distance to everything. We enjoyed the kayaks and SUP, the wild raspberries, and open kitchen and family room. It was a great jumping off point to visit all the Olympic sites, high peaks, Wilmington flume, and downtown restaurants and shops. We were lucky enough to enjoy the free music venue in the park on Mirror lake (Tuesday evenings). We would definitely stay again!

Great Family get away

3 generations under 1 roof! Great place for grandparents, parents, and kids to stay. Paddling on Mill pond on the provided watercraft was really fun. The sauna was lovely. House was a short walk to downtown Lake Placid.

Great location, fun place to stay. Easy.

Great location, beautiful view, we enjoyed the pond and kayaking, and the gardens! Raspberries were ripe - what a treat. Downstairs was spacious and comfortable. Bedrooms are small but fully adequate and all have cross breeze. Wish I had known the fridge and oven are not full size - would have adjusted my plans a bit. Outside Grill worked great. Communication with owner was positive and responsive. Overall a positive experience and we would stay here again.

Had a great stay- all was as listed, and we appreciated the included household incidentals, like hand soap and detergent. Loved having the kayaks and sup. Owners were easy to communicate with, and accommodating of a late checkout.

A Pleasant Surprise

We celebrated a 40th anniversary with our kids here and couldn't have been happier with our stay. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well equipped, the living room large and loungy, and the sauna an added bonus. We didn't have time to try the watercraft but they looked great. We liked everything about the place.

waterfront property with great amenities, walking distance to village

We loved the outside of the property: flowers, plants, Adirondack chairs, raspberry bushes, dock with a view of the serene Chubb pond. Interior: clean, plush carpeting upstairs, spacious bathrooms, nice bedding, and large picture windows in the living room overlooking the pond.

ADK Stay In Late June in Lake Placid

Great location close to all Lake Placid attractions. Very clean! House has all the necessities. Grill was clean and easy to use. Three adults each had clean spacious rooms. Nice having a bag of coffee and vacuum packed milk upon check-in. A/C would be nice on hot Summer days/ nights. Box and ceiling fans did help. Paddling in the kayaks was great! We’ll definitely be back. Thank you!
