It offers the perfect combination of luxury and wilderness with views of Whiteface Mountain, the Sentinel Range and the lake. The natural beauty is outstanding! Comes with 5 passes to the waterfront beach on Lake Placid just down the hill from the condo.
- No need to get in the car since you can walk to all of the Whiteface Club and Resort's amenities: a championship golf course, tennis, the marina, swimming beach, kayak rentals, x-country skiing, hiking trails, miles of wilderness walks and incredible restaurants on the shore of Lake Placid. The Lake Placid Lodge, a 5 star Relais and Chateau Resort, offers Maggie's Pub and the Artisan Restaurant. Moose Lodge Boathouse is also within easy walking distance at the marina and open Memorial Weekend through Labor Day. Sit on the balcony or deck at either place and watch the sun setting on the mountains and the moonlight rippling on the lake.

Christmas and New Year in Lake Placid

Our family routinely travels to Lake Placid and staying at Margaret’s home made our holiday week stand out from other times we have visited the area. Everything was exceptional. The views, cleanliness, comfort, location, and communication with our host was all 5 Star. The hardest part of the trip was having to go back home. We will have very fond memories of our stay here.

Beautiful view

The view from the balcony was beautiful with a glass of wine in the afternoon. Very peaceful. Had a wonderful time exploring the Adirondacks and staying at Margaret’s place. A lot of room for the two of us. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, dishes and all the utensils you need to cook with. We would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful condo with mountain and lake views!

My wife and I had a wonderful weeklong stay. The unit has everything you need and the host was very friendly and responsive. We loved the views and the fireplace. Town is very close by as well. The only problem was that we didn’t book long enough. We hope to be back soon!

Great stay

Overall this condo is great for 3-4 people. It’s a little smaller than expected but it made up for that with location, amenities and an amazing view! Despite a rainy week we were able to make the most of Lake Placid since the condo is in good proximity to town and hiking trails. Owner thought of everything you might need. This is definitely a great option for a small family or couples.

Great Stay at Overlook Perch

Had a great stay with my two teenage daughters. The setup of the condo was excellent and has everything you'll need to have a great time in Lake Placid. Well appointed with everything and a great deck with view of Lake Placid. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely stay here again when we return. Margaret was also great to deal with and had excellent communication.

The perfect space

I rented this house for ironman week because I didn't want to deal with the crowd in the village. Everything in the house is perfect, I love watching the sunrise and whiteface every morning. Cannot wait to come back again!!

If you want a cozy cabin in the woods this is it! Amazing views. Fireplace. Log cabin interior. Truly magical. Two bathrooms are a perk! Also snow and scenic creek and bridge right outside the door. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Stay in Lake Placid!

We had a lovely stay after Christmas through New Years. Our family has been to Lake Placid many times in the summer but this was our first trip in the winter and it was so much fun. The condo was beautifully decorated and so cozy and comfortable, I didn't want to leave. The kitchen was gorgeous, as were the bathrooms. Margaret was a great host who went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was perfect, and it was!

Beautiful condo, fantastic views of Lake Placid and Whiteface Mountain. The condo was clean and well stocked with everything you would need. My wife loved the heated floors in the bathrooms.

Astonishing views in a top of the line condominium

Our stay at this home was absolutely fantastic! The condo is filled with top of the line appliances, linens and anything and everything you need during your stay. High speed Internet, convenient yet quiet location and absolutely astonishing views of the lake and the mountains. We would definitely recommend this home for a family stay as no detail is missed by a wonderful owner. It’s a true gem! Thank you, Margaret!

Incredible vacation spot!

This property is absolutely stunning, and the condo itself has an incredible view of Lake Placid and Whiteface. We were visiting for the Ironman, and were so busy in town that we never ended up picking up beach badges, but we thoroughly enjoyed the condo. We hosted our friends for dinner two nights, one at the restaurant on the lake (a quarter mile walk), and another takeout after the Ironman. Our kids and our friends loved being here! It was roomy enough for our two families (8 people) to hang out and eat. The condo itself also has so many nice touches, such as heated bathroom floors and towel racks, an enormous soaking tub, and generally well-stocked kitchen. It was also nice to be just on the outskirts of town but only a 5 minute drive to downtown. We will certainly be back; it was so peaceful and restorative!

Great visit and rental

The condo was clean, cozy, and communication with Margaret was exactly what you’d want. Lake Placid was aweosme! The marina makes it convenient to rent paddle boards and kayaks ($35/hour). Only thing I’d say about the marina restaurant is that they closed the entire place for a wedding you couldn’t even get an iced tea from about 4:00 one day until about 1:00 the next day. That was disappointing because we really wanted to hang out on the upper deck overlooking water. But it’s a great place when it was open all other times!
