Great Location
This house has beds for 10-12 people. The house is old but nice. The location is great. You can walk most anywhere in town. The bed was comfortable and there is plenty of drawer/closer space. The only drawback to us was having to take your trash to a transfer station. It’s a distance outside town and the hours are 8 am to noon.

Family Vacation
The location of the house was great right next to an ice cream stand and putt putt! The grocery store was right across the street. We loved the home, older Adirondack house very inviting. Close to everything in town walking distance. We rented a boat for the day and spent a day at water safari. It was easy to contact the owner. Although we brought spot of food and kitchen ware there was a lot of extra kitchen stuff if needed. We loved outlet satay and would love to go back next year. The cost was reasonable plenty of room in the house.

Amazing!
Our hosts were amazing from our first contact; they quickly answered our questions, as well as reached out prior to our visit to see if we needed anything. They were so kind. The home was beautiful and clean and comfortable and in an ideal location. I cooked meals for my kids and grands, and we enjoyed every minute we spent together. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable ADK experience!

SUCH a great place to stay--especially with kids!
We had a great time in Old Forge. This property was so conveniently located to everything you'd need... grocery store, gas station, ice cream shop, candy store, restaurants, etc. And only a little over a mile to Water Safari. The place itself was the perfect size. Great for plenty of kids. And a nice little backyard for playing outdoor games. It was clean and well stocked with dishes, towels, linens, etc.

Comfy Adirondack home in a convenient location
We had a great time staying in Jim's Adirondack Home. It was clean and ready for move in when we arrived. The owner was quick to respond to questions and very helpful. Everything worked out just as we'd expected. The location is very convenient if you want to explore the town. And with groceries across the street and mini-golf and ice cream right next door, you don't have to go far if you don't want to. Countless hiking trails, and even a dog park, are all within a few minutes drive. The location right on the main street means there can be a lot of traffic driving by on some days, but it was never enough to be a problem for us. We will definitely be looking to stay here whenever we return to Old Forge.

The perfect Old Forge stay!
The location is absolutely perfect, walking distance to all the town shops and restaurants. There is an ice cream stand & Putt Putt right next door & a grocery store across the street! But don’t let all that convenience & being on the main strip fool you, the yard is private & beautiful & often gets visitors from the local deer. I brought my parents & nephew for their 1st time & could not have been more grateful for this perfect house. Enough rooms for multiple families, two showers & even a washer & dryer if you need it! We will definitely be back again :)

Perfect location in the heart of Old Forge
The house was just as advertised, and was perfectly located for us to walk around Old Forge. Having the grocery store just across the street was extremely convenient. The only issue we had (not the property's fault) was cars blocking the driveway when visiting the ice cream stand next door.

About the host

Hosted by Carolyn

Host profile image
My brother Jim and his son purchased this property because they loved the Adirondacks and everything it had to offer in all seasons. He loved having people come to the home to visit and stay. He decorated the house with an eye towards the Adirondack look and to make it homey and comfortable.

Why they chose this property

They loved snowmobiling in the winter. Relaxing, hiking and kayaking in the summer. Jim and Casey like the convenience of the grocery store, restaurants, ice cream and mini golf all within an easy walk.

What makes this property unique

Snowmobile directly from the property. Mini golf and ice cream next door. River practically in backyard. Sitting on the porch and relaxing. Having a fire in the backyard.
