*****Note*** September 2023***** Last spring we replaced the woodstove with a brand new unit. We recently replaced all of the beds with brand new frames, mattresses and box springs. We also upgraded the kitchen and now have a complete set of GreenPan Cookware. In case you've never heard of it, it's great stuff! We also have recently refinished the floor and upgraded the heating system, which probably doesn't matter to you, but we are excited about it. :)

****WE ACCEPT PETS OVER 20 POUNDS!**** There's some kind of glitch in VRBO that shows we do not.

Enjoy the Adirondack lifestyle in this brand new, secluded log cabin. Located at the end of a 150 foot driveway on a quiet road in “Ausable Acres”, the Cayuga Cabin provides a quiet getaway but is close to all the High Peaks attractions. If a half a dozen cars go by, thats a busy day. Pets are welcome.

The Cayuga Cabin comes completely furnished for any length stay - full kitchen with great cookware, dishwasher and clothes washer/dryer, gas grill and even a whirlpool tub, located in the main bath, are on the premises. Two TV’s with cable make the Cayuga Cabin very family friendly. There are two bedrooms on the main floor, one with a queen, the other a double. There are two singles in the loft. Second full bath is in the basement.

The Cayuga Cabin is a 5 minute walk to fishing access in the renowned West Branch of the Ausable River and 20 minutes to Whiteface Mountain, Santa’s Workshop and High Falls Gorge. The Olympic Village of Lake Placid is less than 25 minutes as is Ausable Chasm – the nation’s oldest natural attraction. Montreal, Quebec and Burlington, Vermont are easy day trips. The finest hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing and cross-country skiing in the High Peaks are all at your fingertips. When you come home from a day of Adirondack adventure relax on the spacious deck or in the whirlpool tub.

Within the Ausable Acres development you have access to several hiking and cross-country skiing trails, tennis courts and the Lake Eaton Picnic & Playground area. For the golfer there are 6 courses ranging from 30 to 60 minutes away.

10 minutes away is the “Jay swimming hole” on the East Branch of the Ausable River which was listed in Sports Illustrated as on of the top 10 swimming holes in the US. This is also the site of the Jay Covered Bridge, recently refurbished and a beautiful place to spend an afternoon.

    Such a beautiful well maintained property! It was equipped with everything we needed (except food 😆) The beds were extremely comfortable, everything worked as it should, the fireplace was warm & inviting & with plenty of wood to keep those fires burning! The only problem was, you cannot use the dvd player. It is a dvd/vhs player & is too old to work with the newer tv. We brought our Roku so it didn't matter… We will definitely be back! Thank you Rick & Sue!

    The cabin was very cozy and clean. We were even gifted a bottle of prosecco by the hosts for our 1 year wedding anniversary! the wood stove and big windows really made us feel at home. I did wish there were curtains for the sliding glass door for privacy and warmth, as all the other windows had curtains. Also, I understand this is a rural area, but it did make us a bit uneasy to know the cabin had been left unlocked before check-in.

    Check in was the simplest I've ever encountered using any platform. The house was ready for us at arrival, well stocked with the necessities and comfortable. Even for a hot July weekend, the cabin stayed cool. Bathrooms were great, and having more than one shower was an added bonus for a group of 5. We used the firepit every night, and cooked all of our meals in the kitchen without any issues. It's a quiet neighborhood but only 15 minutes away from endless activities. Super huge bonus for being dog-friendly. We loved the place; don't hesitate to book.

    The area is nice with the cabin nestled into the woods. Plenty of firewood for the stove for the winter. This could be a 5-star cabin with a few changes.The kitchen was quite in disarray with many broken items. Microwave handle was broken off, sink sprayer handle was broken, and the faucet was not installed correctly so that the whole unit spun on top of the sink when you tried to reposition it. The hole for the sink was also cut too large, making it look very janky. The kitchen could also use a few more cooking dishes and simple stock items like butter and oil (things you need a little bit of and people don’t like to buy to use once) which would go along way for a more enjoyable stay.Overall, the place was clean and the stay pleasant.

    We stayed with our dog for a few days. The place is simple and neat. The neighborhood was quiet. We went skiing one day at Whiteface which is about a 25 minute drive because you have to drive so far into the residential development. The place doesn't have a lot of extras - like a big screen tv or bluetooth speaker but that wasn't an issue for us. The place was clean but not luxury. But, the price reflects that appropriately. We would stay here again.

The kitchen is highly functional and well-outfitted. The stove works very well. The living areas are very comfortable as are the bedrooms. We enjoyed the wood stove. The cabin is located at the end of a 100 foot / 30 meter driveway. and is surrounded by forest. We spent many nights sitting on the covered porch happily seeing the sky, stars and moon through the trees. It is about a ten minute drive into Au Sable Forks, the nearest town.

Full size bathroom with an extra bathroom in the basement that came in handy a few times. The beds were comfortable, and the ceiling fans in each bedroom was nice for air circulation at night. AC in the loft also helped when needed. The owners were extremely easy to work with and super friendly. Would be happy to return again.

    The cabin location and space are so nice! The neighborhood is quiet and we felt very secluded most of the time. We used the firepit most nights when it wasn't raining, and the covered porch when it was. The space and wifi worked well for the trip (we worked remotely for part of the week). I do think some of the outdoor furniture needs some upgrading - those plastic Adirondack chairs are awful after a while. Overall, we were excited to book again for next year and start an annual tradition, but the price increase for next year shut down that idea pretty quickly...
