About this property

Secluded, Furnished, Log Home, Close To Many Adirondack Attractions.

*****Note*** September 2023***** Last spring we replaced the woodstove with a brand new unit. We recently replaced all of the beds with brand new frames, mattresses and box springs. We also upgraded the kitchen and now have a complete set of GreenPan Cookware. In case you've never heard of it, it's great stuff! We also have recently refinished the floor and upgraded the heating system, which probably doesn't matter to you, but we are excited about it. :)

Enjoy the Adirondack lifestyle in this brand new, secluded log cabin. Located at the end of a 150 foot driveway on a quiet road in “Ausable Acres”, the Cayuga Cabin provides a quiet getaway but is close to all the High Peaks attractions. If a half a dozen cars go by, thats a busy day. Pets are welcome.

The Cayuga Cabin comes completely furnished for any length stay - full kitchen with great cookware, dishwasher and clothes washer/dryer, gas grill and even a whirlpool tub, located in the main bath, are on the premises. Two TV’s with cable make the Cayuga Cabin very family friendly. There are two bedrooms on the main floor, one with a queen, the other a double. There are two singles in the loft. Second full bath is in the basement.

The Cayuga Cabin is a 5 minute walk to fishing access in the renowned West Branch of the Ausable River and 20 minutes to Whiteface Mountain, Santa’s Workshop and High Falls Gorge. The Olympic Village of Lake Placid is less than 25 minutes as is Ausable Chasm – the nation’s oldest natural attraction. Montreal, Quebec and Burlington, Vermont are easy day trips. The finest hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing and cross-country skiing in the High Peaks are all at your fingertips. When you come home from a day of Adirondack adventure relax on the spacious deck or in the whirlpool tub.

Within the Ausable Acres development you have access to several hiking and cross-country skiing trails, tennis courts and the Lake Eaton Picnic & Playground area. For the golfer there are 6 courses ranging from 30 to 60 minutes away.

10 minutes away is the “Jay swimming hole” on the East Branch of the Ausable River which was listed in Sports Illustrated as on of the top 10 swimming holes in the US. This is also the site of the Jay Covered Bridge, recently refurbished and a beautiful place to spend an afternoon.

Lovely cabin
Cabin is very pretty 2 bathrooms the queen bed was very comfortable we slept very well. Indoor wood burning stove works really well. We used it when lights went out a few hours. Owner came to greet us and to help with power outage. Had a very comfortable stay. I highly recommend this place close to some absolutely beautiful places and restaurants.

Good but could be stellar
The area is nice with the cabin nestled into the woods. Plenty of firewood for the stove for the winter. This could be a 5-star cabin with a few changes.The kitchen was quite in disarray with many broken items. Microwave handle was broken off, sink sprayer handle was broken, and the faucet was not installed correctly so that the whole unit spun on top of the sink when you tried to reposition it. The hole for the sink was also cut too large, making it look very janky. The kitchen could also use a few more cooking dishes and simple stock items like butter and oil (things you need a little bit of and people don’t like to buy to use once) which would go along way for a more enjoyable stay.Overall, the place was clean and the stay pleasant.

PERFECTION
Great quiet and beautiful location; even more beautiful with fresh powder snow and a good amount of it for a change. Quiet location but close to all that we wanted to do. Great downhill and backcountry skiing closeby. Anything we needed was at our fingertips at this fully stocked home. So cozy and comfy!

Woodsy cabin
We stayed with our dog for a few days. The place is simple and neat. The neighborhood was quiet. We went skiing one day at Whiteface which is about a 25 minute drive because you have to drive so far into the residential development. The place doesn't have a lot of extras - like a big screen tv or bluetooth speaker but that wasn't an issue for us. The place was clean but not luxury. But, the price reflects that appropriately. We would stay here again.

Such a beautiful well maintained property! It was equipped with everything we needed (except food 😆) The beds were extremely comfortable, everything worked as it should, the fireplace was warm & inviting & with plenty of wood to keep those fires burning! The only problem was, you cannot use the dvd player. It is a dvd/vhs player & is too old to work with the newer tv. We brought our Roku so it didn't matter… We will definitely be back! Thank you Rick & Sue!

Nice Chalet for a Short Stay
Chalet is very cozy and is a great space for a family or friends gathering. Kitchen has all the implements you need and had good heating for cold weather. House is only 20 minutes away from Whiteface Mountain and 30 minutes to the Village of Lake Placid.

Relaxing Cabin in the Woods
If your looking for a quiet getaway, this is it. Close enough to Lake Placid to enjoy time in town but far enough to get away from the noise. We enjoyed fires (inside and outside) and walks around the neighborhood. I love the fact that the cabin is dog friendly.

A wonderful week in the woods
We had a lovely restful week in this well-appointed cabin in the woods. The walls, floors, and even the ceilings are made of wood all assembled by a ream of excellent carpenters. The kitchen is highly functional and well-outfitted. The stove works very well. The living areas are very comfortable as are the bedrooms. We enjoyed the wood stove. The cabin is located at the end of a 100 foot / 30 meter driveway. and is surrounded by forest. We spent many nights sitting on the covered porch happily seeing the sky, stars and moon through the trees. It is about a ten minute drive into Au Sable Forks, the nearest town.

About the host

Hosted by Rick & Sue

Host profile image
My wife Sue and I moved into the Adirondacks in 2002 after living on the shores of Lake Champlain in Plattsburgh, NY for 10 years. Not a bad place to live at all but it was time for a change. We fell in love with the Adirondacks, and specifically 'Ausable Acres' on our first visit. You will too. It is quiet, wooded with wildlife everywhere.

Why they chose this property

We purchased the undeveloped lot in 2004 and completed our log home in 2006. We are very proud of ourselves :) We take great satisfaction in the complements we get from our most wonderful past guests.

What makes this property unique

The Cayuga Cabin is completely furnished. The kitchen is equipped with all pots, pans, utensils right down to coffee filters and dish-washing detergent. All linens and towels are provided as is toilet paper, paper towel and tissues along with bottled hand soap. There is a washer & dryer and detergent in the 2nd bathroom. All you need to bring are clothes & food! We also have an outdoor shower and provide wood for the woodstove and outdoor firepit.
