Summary of reviews
The property is gorgeous and well-kept, ideal location close to Lake Placid. Spacious accommodations and amazing outdoor space provided. Highly recommended for family getaways.
5.0 / 5.0
This was our second time staying at the Grand Jay Lodge. It’s a cozy log cabin, with great amenities (hot tub, sauna, air fryer, two laundry rooms). We went with friends last year, and brought the family this year. It’s centrally located between Lake Placid and Keene Valley. Excellent location for trips into town, or to hit a hike out of Adk Log or Keene. The host is very responsive and kind. We’ll be back for a 3rd year!

Spacious, great kitchen, fantastic game room, beautiful living room, wonderful hot tub and sauna.
My family loved it. Our host was very responsive to any queries.
5.0 / 5.0
We rented Grand Jay as well as Grand Peaks for a multigenerational family reunion. The houses were a quick walk down the street from each other, making gathering together so easy. Grand Jay was a perfect fit for our needs. The hot tub and sauna were also a hit. Lots of things to do in the area, with a quick drive to Lake Placid. Gene was very responsive to any and all questions and was very accommodating. We look forward to returning in the future!

The property is gorgeous and very well kept. The owners were friendly and the house is located very close to Lake Placid making it an ideal location for a getaway with family or friends (or both)!

We booked our stay several years in advance to experience the total solar eclipse in April 2024, and everything worked out beautifully. Gene probably isn't responsible for the perfect weather, but he did provide our extended family with spacious accommodations and an amazing outdoor space to enjoy. He was a responsive, informative host, and we are grateful to have had such a wonderful place to stay in upstate New York.

We rented 2 of Gene’s places for a last minute family reunion. Pictures don’t do them justice. They were gorgeous, beautifully decorated and meticulously clean. They were perfect for our family and we can’t wait to be back.
4.0 / 5.0
Location was great and there was plenty of room for us. Two things that could have been better: we didn't have access to air/heat for the first day and it was abnormally hot that day and the 2 days leading up to our trip. Secondly, the place hadn't been vacuumed recently. I know because of the spike in temperature there were a lot of dead and live houseflies that week, but the property should have been vacuumed that day. The floors were a little dirty and covered with dead flies but the bathrooms and kitchen were clean. The hot tub and sauna were ready for us and we did enjoy them!
5.0 / 5.0
We really enjoyed our time at the Grand Jay Lodge. Gene was easy to communicate with, and the check in/out process was seamless. The property had a great feel, it is a short drive to Lake Placid and the ADK Loj. Whiteface is just down the road as well. We’ll be back next summer for a longer stay!
5.0 / 5.0
Gene is very accessible and highly responsive. All inquiries and issues were handled immediately and Gene was not happy until we were happy with the outcome. The property was clean and well-apportioned. The property overlooks Jay Mountain, which was a such beautiful backyard view.
5.0 / 5.0
The house was clean and beautiful. The area has many nearby attractions for those that enjoy the outdoors. The view from the house and the amenities were wonderful.
We probably pushed the limit on occupancy with 22 people. The large kitchen table was adequate for us. The TV viewing area was definitely small for our party. The downstairs play area was excellent. We had some bees get into the house in one of the bedrooms. And a couple of my family members thought the beds could have been better (too soft/low quality).
5.0 / 5.0
Wonderful property to host our family reunion. The house was conveniently located to many fun activities and the town of Lake Placid. WiFi and cell service EXISTED (which was not true for the second house we rented). House was clean, well stocked and had a variety of entertaining areas for all ages. Totally relaxing and enjoyable stay. Engaged, helpful and communicative owner. We’ll be back!

This property and the management of it, is way above par. Our second year staying and will be back for years to come! Thank you Gene and the rest of the staff for going above and beyond for our team and the families! Cheers

5.0 / 5.0
This home is amazing, plenty of everything. Kitchen is the best equipped I’ve ever experienced in a vacation rental. So many bathrooms, so many towels, so many bedrooms and so many beds! We were 9 adults, two teens, a 5 year old and 3 under 3. Plenty of space for everyone! Gene was so helpful and flexible in getting us checked in early because of the bad weather hitting later in the day. He was kind to check in and make sure everything was ok. Communicated great via text. Sauna and hot tub were in full working order. Two refrigerator/freezers, 3 sets of washer/dryer. This home literally has everything. Lots of fun stuff in the basement -ping pong, guitar hero. Property was well taken care of, especially the driveway plowing/sanding. 10 minutes to Whiteface, 20ish minutes to downtown Lake Placid. Great stay all around and highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay. And will definitely be booking again.
One and only con was the tile floor in the kitchen and living area was cracked and loose.
Not a big deal but didn't let the little kids crawl on the floor. Basement was carpet and the kids crawled downstairs
5.0 / 5.0
Our group of 4 families loved our stay at Gene's property. Great, quiet location close to Wilmington (5-10 mins), and just a short, beautiful 15-20 min drive to downtown Lake Placid. Plenty to see and do in the area. The home was very clean and the layout, esp. the playroom in the basement, worked really well for our group. Made ample use of the large yard, hot tub, and fire pit, too. One or two very minor issues popped up during our stay, and Gene was very responsive with a resolution almost immediately. I would absolutely recommend this home for your next visit to the High Peaks region.
5.0 / 5.0
Our group stay at this property was amazing. The property was clean and well set up for our weeklong stay. The amenties were excellent for our needs and the location is great for many ADK activities. Communication with Gene was quick and helpful. It is clear that High peaks rentals knows what they are doing!

Adirondack winter retreat
Adirondack winter retreat…. We were a party of 8 to 12 people over five days. The great room was just the right size for all of us the massive kitchen table was perfect for all of us at once to have a meal together the hot tub and sauna worked flawlessly. The bedrooms with provided linens and bathrooms with provided towels were clean and new and quite comfortable. We had a foot of snow on our third day and the plowing service was excellent. Plenty of room for extra cars in this property where all you see from the windows are sunrises mountains and woods. No neighbors are visible or heard from. So it is very tranquil. We will be renting this next year as well as all parties had a fantastic time.

This was one of the best VRBO homes I have stayed in. Very clean and comfortable, perfect location to the Mt. and the views were amazing. Plenty of space for our party of 10 but could easily accommodate more.

Family Christmas
This is the second time we have stayed at Grand Jay lodge for Christmas. The second time was just as good as the first. The home is beautiful, well stocked and well maintained. The owner is very responsive and easy to work with. It is the ideal place for us to get our children and their families together. There is plenty of room for everyone and lots of things to do in the home and in the area. We highly recommend this home.

Awesome Home Near Lake Placid and White Face
If looking for a great house in the Mountains, this is the one. We had a family get together here and it was wonderful. House is large, very comfortable and very clean. It has beautiful Mountain View’s and sunrise over the mountains is stunning. Outside is a very nice hot tub as well as a sauna and a fire pit all of which my family enjoyed.
The host, Gene, is the best host we have encountered yet. If you contact him he responds immediately. He was very helpful and accommodating throughout the booking as well as through our entire stay. Myself as well as my entire family highly recommend this house. We hope to have another family vacation here in the future. We give this property a 5 star rating!
