Spacious but isolated

The home is rather old and rustic. It is very spacious and can accommodate quite a large group. there are bedrooms on 3 levels and plenty of space indoor and out. It is in a quiet and rather isolated area but there are some nice towns and restaurants a short drive away. It does need some urgent repairs to the plumbing. the toilets did not always flush and water pressure was very low. For a house that boasts so much space and accommodation for many occupants, it really is a must that the plumbing is functioning properly.

Nice home, great location

The house is very conveniently located close to Gore mountain- you can see it from the driveway. Quiet place in the woods with a hiking trail and little slides at the back - good for sledding. Sleds were in the house too - very nice. We had great time sledding and playing in the snow by the house and skiing at Gore. House has wood stove - very nice. Nice, cozy rooms, good beds in rooms, but the futons are not comfortable for sleeping- so really it comfortably sleeps 8, not 10. Rooms need more lights and mirrors, dressers are broken. Washing machine could use an upgrade. Bathrooms and kitchen need to be cleaned properly- there are cobwebs. Driveway is long and steep uphill, lots of rocks, so 2-wheel drive won’t make it up in winter if there’s slush or dirt - we had to push our car all the way up. 4-wheel drive has no problem.

Gore Mtn Ski Trip

Lovely Adirondack cabin the was well stocked and very cozy. Just a short drive to Gore and several restaurants. We had 6 people in 4 bedrooms but there were futons available to easily sleep 10. Great place.

About the host

Hosted by Jeffrey & Ellen Taylor

My wife & I grew up in the hustle & bustle of New Jersey/New York City. we rented the home once a year & when it went on the market, we jumped at the opportunity to buy. We hope you enjoy the Chalet as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This Chalet is right in the middle of the action.You have all the ski areas ,Schroon lake to the north, Lake George to the south, Lake Placid one hour north, white water rafting on the Hudson, hiking trails all around, fine restaurants at Lake George. The Chalet is hidden on 15 acres of solitude. It's a home away from home
