    Overall the stay was great! The bunkhouse was unuseable due to drain flies but everything else was great!

    We reserved the house for a family wedding in town and the only thing negative was that we couldn't stay longer. The property was so peaceful, the house, bedrooms, living room and outdoor area were so beautiful. Such serenity.Cesar, our host, was attentive to every request. Our family is already planning to book again.

    A group of ladies and I stayed at this home for our annual girls trip. It was beyond fabulous. All we needed was available and more! The outdoor kitchen and pool are very inviting. Witnessed many different birds, turkeys, cows and donkeys. A trip spent enjoying nature. We brought bikes. Bonus was a quaint little town …Lake Placid downtown with all the murals plus many kind of different adventures if inclined to leave the home at Al!
