Summary: What a wonderful way to celebrate two family birthdays!! We can not say enough about how wonderful the accommodations were. The house was clean and cozy and the owner was easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to make sure that we had what we needed. The house is a short drive to Whiteface mountain and just thirty minutes to the quaint town of Lake Placid. We will definitely be back.

Summary: Myself, my husband, our two girls and our friends with their two boys stayed for a long weekend! It was in a great location to get to whiteface but also into Lake Placid.The house was exactly as shown if not better! Everything was beautifully decorated and cozy. The king bed and queen beds were really comfortable and none of the 4 kids said anything bad about their beds. The kids adventured on the river with some of the adults which was beautiful. We didn’t have to use the washer and drier but it was there if needed. Dishwasher was great to have! Lots of games to play at night or while relaxing during the day. Some of our group went to whiteface for the day and the Moms went to the Jack Rabbit trail to cross country ski. Responsiveness was amazing and everyone was helpful and friendly. I will suggest that they take more photos because the photos just don’t do it as much justice as it deserves. Thank you again for a wonderful 3 day weekend!!

Summary: The home was exactly as described. Warm, cozy and properly equipped for our family. We were centrally located between Lake Placid and Whiteface. We had a busy itinerary, but when we were at the cabin, the family room and game table was where everyone gathered. Thank you for sharing your winter wonderland cabin with us. Hopefully we will be back again next year.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay here for Canadian Thanksgiving. The cabin is furnished and decorated perfectly to provide a real cozy atmosphere. It’s exceptionally comfortable. The photos don’t do it justice. Very well stocked. Amazing privacy along the river bed. Close to trails. Excellent views of the fall colours. A short drive to the busy areas of Lake Plscid. Enjoyed Flume Falls and going on the Cloud splitter gondola up Whiteface Mon. Will stay again!

Summary: Nice, comfortable place for a group of guys who first came to the ADKs 50 years ago as teenage scouts. Still working on their 46, some harder than others, one in the group bagged number 45 & 46 on the trip. YEA BABY!! Great time. Hopefully not the last.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay at the Riverhouse. Everything was as described. The location was perfect and the host was excellent at communication. We highly recommend this place - close to lots of hikes as well as Olympic sites/attraction in Lake Placid. The host provided us with lots ideas of things to do and places to eat.

Summary: Overall we were very happy with our stay. You can hear the river from the house and is a short walk to it. The house was cozy and perfect for the four of us. Awesome dark skies at night. Everyone in town was very nice. The food at the Ice jam inn and restaurant was the best we tried in the area.

Summary: We loved staying at this comfy home in Keene/Upper Jay. The house was very clean, well equipped, and we felt like we were in a homey cabin in the woods. We were there for hiking and it was well situated to trails both in Lake Placid and Wilmington, and everywhere in between! I loved sitting out on the front porch in the morning with my coffee and in the evening with a glass of wine and listening to the Ausable go by. When we walked across the road to the picnic area and saw the river and the beach, all we could think was "we have got to bring our grandchildren here!!" Trish is excellent about communications and sharing info on the surrounding area! We can't wait to come back!!
