Convenient cottage for pet owners w/awesome owner

Stayed here with two dogs. Place was perfect for us with a fenced in yard and nice places to walk the dogs around us. It was also super close to get to the ice rink (if you are used to walking 0.4 mile). We didn't use our cars most of the time (except for once when it rained). The places does have lots of stairs, so it is not friendly for anyone who has difficulty with stairs. We didn't have any problems, but people should be aware of that. Owner is super responsive and accommodating. The driveway off the back yard is a little hard to find in the dark, but if you arrive during daylight, you should be able to find it. Overall, we really appreciated having a pet-friendly home to stay in. Thank you!

Solar Eclipse Stay

Perfect combination of convenience to everything while being a quiet place to get away and relax. Loved the separate floors for sleeping quarters - perfect for our young adult son to have his own privacy. Our dogs loved the yard and upstairs - tons of tail wagging our entire stay! (comfortable beds, great shower and heat, inviting decor, kitchen and laundry conveniences, extra blankets and linens, plenty of towels; the only improvement needed is brighter lighting throughout for individuals with vision problems)

Winter Break

This was our first time staying at a cottage (VRBO) in Lake Placid. In the last few years, we have stayed at a hotel in the area. We liked that the back yard was fenced in, which allowed our two little dogs to go outside to run around and play. We very much liked that we could go out to eat, but also cook at the house for a few dinners and have breakfast every morning. The beds are very comfortable, and the kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, plates, pots and pans. The cottage is older and there were a few small things where we had to contact the property owner, but he always quickly responded. We enjoyed our stay!

President's Weekend.

The property was just as advertised. The owner/manager was responsive and courteous. I hope we contributed some to the upkeep as well. I know we kept after the snowfall to keep the walkways and driveway and deck clear. We were pretty good about keeping the dog in the living room only, but i wasn't able to keep up with the dog as well as I would have liked outside as the snow complicated matters some. I hope we were good guests and we appreciated the hospitality.

Great cottage home close to town

We stayed in Josh’s rental for a few days after New Year’s. This was our first time back to Lake Placid in about five years. Being familiar with the town, we knew the general area we wanted to stay. This cottage did not disappoint! Short walk to all the shops and restaurants on Main Street, well appointed kitchen and linen closets, cute cottage decor. Parking in the back of the cottage, with a fully fenced yard for smaller kids or a dog. No complaints! We were a group of five. Two adults and three teenagers. Room for everyone to sleep and lounge comfortably. An easy 15 minute drive to Whiteface for downhill skiing. Close to all the hiking and outdoor activities one could wish for. Thank you for having us Josh. We will definitely recommend to friends and family if they are looking to stay in Lake Placid.

Lake Placid getaway

Excellent property for the two of us PLUS our two Labrador retreivers. They loved the fenced in yard. Location is perfect as it is in the village but has a feel of being outside the vilalge limits as its located on a very low travel road. Just a few steps away from the Lake Placid brewery and Mirror Lake. Will stay here again for sure

This was the perfect location to stay when running the Lake Placid Half Marathon, just a block away from the Olympic oval and walkable to downtown. The inside was clean and had everything we could possibly need, and the decor was lovely. Would definitely stay here again if I'm back in Lake Placid!

Everything you need for your LP stay

2nd time at this property and still very satisfied! It has everything you may need including a fully-stocked kitchen. We love the fenced in backyard for our dog. It was also easy for us to “baby proof” the main floor so we could easily keep an eye on a busy toddler. The property is in a great location within walking distance to Main St, Mirror Lake, etc. We will be back!

Nice Property in a Great Location

Our family of four, with dog in tow, spent a few days at this property while visiting Lake Placid and nearby areas. The house was a great fit for our family. There was plenty of space for everyone. The house was comfortable and conveniently located to the major attractions around Lake Placid. The kids enjoyed playing in the snow with our dog in the fenced back yard. If our travels bring us back to Lake Placid, this property will certainly be the first choice for our stay!

Perfect location for walking around town

We had a fantastic trip. The property is an easy walk to all of the shops in town. It's easily accessible. The house is as advertised and worked well for our girls weekend. The only snafu was the cleaning people didn't show up before we arrived so we had to wash our own bedding. Thankfully the people before us were near and we noticed before it was too late so it wasn't a major issue.

Somewhat Disappointing

We experienced both positives and negatives at this property. This was our 1st time staying at this location, but our third time visiting the area. It's proximity to downtown Lake Placid is excellent as advertised. Also, the house is in a very quiet neighborhood which allowed for nice, quiet evenings. On the downside we booked this property to enjoy the outside deck/patio area. Since the nights were chilly we looked forward to using the fire pit on the deck as pictured online. When we arrived the fire pit was tipped over off the deck. I called Josh to inquire about a starter supply of firewood (which we always were provided at other rentals) and was advised to reference the binder about fires since the village is strict. Also, he mentioned that we might find some wood under the deck. Lastly, the gas grill which was moved off the deck also had extremely rusty grates which obviously had not been cleaned or used in some time. I took the time to clean these before cooking and 10 minutes into cooking ran out of propane. I did not see a spare tank and midway into cooking at 8pm at night I did not contact our host. The reversed hot/cold water at the kitchen sink was just an annoyance. As always, we still enjoyed our time in Lake Placid.

Excellent location, beautiful backyard and close to everything!

The property is behind the main house which gives access to the backyard and private entrance. The house has a cottage feel and close to everything and we had a wonderful stay here. The property owners were extremely communicative and met all of our needs. Very flexible with all of our requests that we had was very appreciative of the quick response that we got from Josh and his mother with regard to the property. They really went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable.
