Gorgeous custom-built Adirondack home tucked down a long driveway on a peaceful 30-acre wooded setting. With 1100' of frontage on the renowned West Branch of the Ausable River, this property is a dream fly fishing retreat, but also six minutes from world class skiing at Whiteface Mountain ski resort, mountain biking, and a short drive from High Peaks hiking and all the beauty and year-round outdoor adventures that the Lake Placid area has to offer.

The main floor of the house also features a mudroom, powder room and a charming queen bedroom with en suite bathroom.
The second floor features a queen master bedroom suite including a walk-in closet, large bath with soaking tub, and a screened sleeping porch which puts you up in the trees.

Beautiful in every season, this getaway property features private walking trails through the forest and down to the Ausable River, two cascading brooks, perennial and vegetable gardens, and a picturesque barn (for owner's use only).

Our stay in this gorgeous home could not have been more perfect. Beautifully designed to maximize the experience of nature all around you, we didn’t want to leave! We will return for sure!
Our family had a wonderful winter wonderland vacation while staying at this bucolic home. We skied Whiteface, hiked and enjoyed all Lake Placid has to offer.
Property was gorgeous and clean. The kitchen was very large with everything we needed. WiFi didn’t work well enough to stream movies. I’m sure DVDs would have worked great. The screen and sound was great so we were disappointed we couldn’t use it. Sauna was wonderful! Beds were extremely comfortable and warm. The lean-to and lights were beautiful! Overall a wonderful property and accommodations.
