Mary and Kevin were wonderful hosts who were there when I needed help with the TV, while providing me a peaceful, quiet place to relax. The apartment was spacious and meticulously kept. I was looking for a place near the heart of town and not in the woods. This apartment was ideal!

Very Informative and pleasant owner, who lives upstairs about this unit. Very clean, unique and interesting. Location is excellent on west side of the Village making it easier to get around!

My husband and I had a very lovely time. One small hiccup and the owners were readily available to address it.

Everything was great for our weeklong hiking and paddling vacation. The location is central for beautiful hikes for all abilities and fantastic lakes, ponds and rivers. The town is walking distance to get to great places for breakfast, dinners and pub food. The house is very clean and well equipped, with much more than we ever use. Mary and Kevin are great hosts and are very helpful, even with ideas for hiking and paddling trips. Great time in the Adirondacks and a great place to stay for the week.

Great location for our bicycle rally, since it is a stones throw from the rail trail and the depot, where all of our rides started and ended.

The Nook is a real gem in Saranac Lake! My wife & I could have just stayed inside the entire time, it's that cozy! Mary & Kevin are the most friendly, hospitable hosts, ready to answer any questions, give recommendations of things to do, places to eat.
We were more than thrilled to stay there, and we will be back!!

The Nook is as advertised. It's very clean, comfortable and a great location to walk to dinner and breakfast. It's also central for hiking or paddling. Very comfortable and Mary is great to work with.

My understanding is that Mary and Kevin are renovating and will only have 1 unit going forward, so I can't usefully comment on that. But given their attentiveness, graciousness and conviviality, I'm sure it will be just fine! :-)

My wife and I loved the condo! Our favorite parts were the views and watching the sun melt into the gulf every night! It was everything that was advertised in the listing and more. The condo is a nice size, quiet, very nice furniture and an awesome king size bed in the master. We also liked that you could walk to restaurants nearby. The Marriott Resort had several nice options, and the Bimini Bait Shack was a great place to grab a beer and a burger. Easy access by car to Sanibel, Captiva, Ft. Myers and Cape Coral.

The getaway was very clean and the host was very helpful. Lake Saranac has lots of great places to eat and drink and is very close to Lake Placid. The Olympic Skyride was fun and there was great shopping in downtown Lake Placid. We hit up some antique shops and breweries as well. The location was perfect for a weekend getaway.

We enjoyed our stay and Mary was great to work with since we booked with short notice. We loved the soaking tub after a night of Wild Lights in Tupper Lake.

Our experience at the Nook and Inner Quest Yoga and Wellness Center was awesome! It was a perfect spot to complete our first 6er at St Regis and then a recovery day of Yoga and meditation. Mary was awesome and she guided us through a session that was very well done and left us feeling whole. Highly recommended! We will be returning for many years to come!

We really loved everything about The Nook, our hosts, and our time in the area. The privacy, comfy bed, soaking tub, and sitting area made us feel at home. There's much to see that I recommend staying a week, especially if you like to hike.

Adorable apartment
Kevin and Mary were very welcoming hosts. The apartment had everything I needed for the week that I stayed.
I prefer to walk to as many places as possible and I was able to walk into downtown in about 15 minutes, including to the wonderful Saturday morning Farmers Market. There is also an inexpensive bike rental directly across the street, accessible using the Movatic app.
I am working remotely while traveling, and the apartment was a peaceful environment to work in. The internet connection wasn't optimal, and I did end up going to Nori's (the nearby health food store) to work.
I loved walking the rail trail that runs behind the house, and across the street in both directions- into town and to Lake Colby.
A lovely stay in a lovely town with wonderful hosts.

Lovely little nook!
Perfect place to sleep at the heart of Saranac Lake. I would recommend reading the binder Mary has provided in the room, it gave us a lot of ideas for activities!
This little nook is perfect if you just need a bed and a shower/bath and plan on eating out most of your meals.

Perfect location
The Nook was perfect for our quick trip to Saranac Lake and Lake Placid. A quiet, cozy place to relax and unwind after days filled with adventure and sight-seeing. Everything was within walking distance in Saranac Lake, and a short drive to most of the other destinations we wanted to see! Mary and Kevin were kind and helpful, and happy to have Canadians back at the Nook! We plan on returning next year:)

Great Stay!
Mary and Kevin were great hosts with a beautiful loft! The bath was a hit and the space was neat and clean. It was close to all the hikes we wanted to do and there was plenty of great food around!
10.0
Such a cosy little place (little for a vacation home, so much roomier and more comfy than a hotel room!). I loved this stay--from being able to make myself toast in the morning to taking a luxurious bath in the soaking tub at night. It was an easy walk down the hill to downtown Saranac Lake for dinner at the Downhill Grill or any other local favorite restaurant (though it would also be an easy drive). The owners are wonderful, and I had a great yoga therapy session with Mary as well. I definitely plan to return for cross-country skiing this winter!

Perfect getaway
The Village Nook was very well appointed and very clean. A relaxing stay, and great place to come back to after a day of paddling.. Mary was so nice, hope to meet her next time. The bed was very comfortable, and there were plenty of towels, etc. Will gladly stay here again when we're next in the area.
