Jay Ski Chalet | ADK Riverfront Home - Ski Whiteface, Near Lake Placid

3 Bedroom Ski Chalet in Jay

The River House is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom chalet that sleeps 8, tucked away in the Ausable Acres in Jay, NY, right on the West Branch Ausable River. This cozy home is on a private, secluded lot, yet close to many of the Adirondack area attractions making it an ideal location to make your home base during your winter getaway in the Adirondacks.
The Ausable Acres community is located in Jay, NY and is not far from several popular local destinations. Whiteface Mountain, the “greatest vertical drop east of the Rockies” is a short drive away. Lake Placid isn’t much farther and has great shopping and dining in addition to all of the Olympic history from hosting twice, including in 1980 for the Miracle on Ice victory. The property is also centrally located between Santa’s Workshop, the Covered Bridge in Jay, High Falls Gorge, Ausable Chasm & Mt. Von Hoevenberg.
The main floor consists of a well-stocked kitchen (pots, pans, silverware, cooking utensils, drinking glasses, plates, mugs, wine glasses, bakeware, etc.) with a dishwasher and a brand new fridge, an open living room with a 70-inch 4K TV (please note the wood stove isn't functioning), a sunroom with a small dinette as well as some rocking chairs and a small sofa, a king bedroom with a TV and a full bathroom. The 2nd floor was completely remodeled this year with brand new flooring in both bedrooms (queen bed with a TV in the first and a queen over queen bunk in the second) along with a fully remodeled bathroom with a massive walk-in shower and jack & jill sinks. Please note, the wood burning stove cannot be operated as multiple chimney sweeps indicated it would be a fire hazard to use until considerable repairs are made.
As we are a member of the Ausable Acres Property Owner's Association, you will have access to cross-country skiing/snowshoeing trails right within the neighborhood. You will also find ample opportunities to do winter hiking, ice fishing, snowmobiling, dog sled rides and more in the surrounding area.
We love this home and are excited to share it with others to experience everything it has to offer!

Summary: The house was cute, cozy, and was very comfortable for a family of 4. It was bitter cold when we were there, and the heat pump and heater worked well to keep the place warm. We used the fire pit several nights, and the grill a few times. Both worked well. The drive and porch were cleared by the caretakers, too. The kitchen is small, but useful. The only issue we had was that the wood burning stove was not working due to a chimney issue. Otherwise, we very much enjoyed our stay there.

Summary: We had a great stay and enjoyed the property immensely. We had great communication with the Dan and would love to come back. The location is a little over 30 minutes to Lake Placid, where we spent several days. However it's about 15 minutes away from other cute small towns, such as Keene, Wilmington, and Jay.

Summary: The house was great. Beautiful, secluded location, but yet not too remote. The river is just a few steps down the hill. The house and lot were beautiful and spacious. It offers all the amenities you would need for a wonderful Adirondack getaway in any season. And the owners were always reachable to resolve any issues.

Summary: House was as advertised. Clean and comfortable. We had a drain clog and the owner was very prompt and efficient getting someone there to fix it. Wish the fire stove worked though. Just a little farther than I expected from Whiteface. But all in all very nice place to stay.
