Forest Hideaway

Cabin and amenities were in great condition. Host was welcoming and salted the walkway and deck due to snow/ice storm during our stay.

My husband, 5 month old, friend and pup stayed here while we were in town for the Mountain Bike World Cup. The property was beautiful and we enjoyed hiking the well marked property trails and morning / evenings on the large screened porch. The property is both conveniently located and private. It was quick to get to Whiteface, hikes in Keene Valley and local mountain bike trails. James was super easy to communicate with and very helpful. 10/10 recommend staying at one of his homes on this property!

Excellent secluded house in a beautiful location. Dogs loved the fenced in yard. The private trails were also very beautiful and easy to follow. Convenient to get to Lake Placid, Whiteface Mountain, and all the local hiking spots.

We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the location

This is a wonderful cabin to have as a home base for exploring the High Peaks region of the Adirondacks. The cabin is secluded and quiet, yet close to restaurants and shopping in Keene / Keene Valley. The screened in porch is fabulous and where we spent most of our time. The fenced in area for dogs (which can be accessed from either level of the cabin) was a huge plus for us. Although we didn’t really need to use it during our stay, this cabin does have AC, which can be very nice with warmer temps. James (host) was very helpful with info and quickly responded to any questions.

I had a lovely week-long stay at this cabin. Easy access to awesome hiking and a gas station with essentials (beer, quick meals etc.). Beautiful peaceful vibes with the large screened-in porch set amongst the trees. Light a fire and open the doors to have a nice mix of fresh air and warmth. I would love to come back. Quick note: I would ensure this place is best for you if you or your guests have notable mobility issues. There are slightly tricky stairs to get to the main living area both from outside or from the basement entrance. This won't be an issue for most though.Thanks again! :)

The house is sequestered in the woods with a few properties around it, but only one in distant view. Our party consisted of two adults and two dogs, a small Golden and a Black Lab. The property was good for the dogs as there is a fenced in area on one side of the house. The house itself has a very narrow spiral staircase connecting the first and second floors and it was difficult to use it while carrying any large item. The upstairs area, which is the kitchen, LR and MBR have very dark paneled walls, the kitchen cabinets are also dark wood. The bathrooms up and down have been redone and the kitchen could use the same. Otherwise, the house was cozy, and the upstairs was large enough for the four of us (as the dogs would not attempt the stairway so remained in the upstairs area, which has two outside entrances).The owner is very nice and attentive and immediately resolved a couple of minor issues. Overall, the stay was relaxing. We hiked with the dogs, visited Lake Placid, enjoyed snowshoeing at the Cascade Welcome Center (where you can cross country ski or snowshoe without also purchasing a day pass), the Noon Mark Diner for pie and dinner at Forty Six. Keene and Keene Valley are lovely. I would recommend a visit.

House had everything we needed and had plenty of room for the 4 of us and the doggy.

Nice house clean and comfortable. I would stay here again.

Great little cabin and property! Enjoyed the fireplace and proximity to Lake Placid and Whiteface Ski mountain!

Great location near Keene, ideal for small family holiday with pet. Trails (and dried firewood) on the property and comfy warm quiet house in perfect location for a peaceful mountain vacay. Owner is super kind and attentive. Book it!

We enjoyed our Xmas getaway. The place was clean and host was attentive to make sure we had everything we needed. Absolutely recommend for families traveling with dogs, as the fenced-in dog run is a nice touch. Our weather was snowy and cold, as it should be in the Adirondack Mountains at Xmas, but the fire made everything cozy. We want to come back in a warmer season to avail ourselves of the well-marked hiking trails. *****

This was a fantastic cabin in the woods for a getaway in the Adirondacks. Peaceful and serene! Wish we could have stayed longer and will definitely hope to be back.
