2 bedrooms, 1 bath, sleeps 5

The '46er' chalet is named for those who have summited the 46 highest peaks in the Adirondacks, a longstanding ADK Park challenge and athletic tradition.

This charming chalet is well-equipped and well-oriented in a quiet, private setting. Tranquil and forested, the property enjoys views of Esther and Whiteface Mountains, both 46ers at over 4000 ft.

At the 46er, you'll find the warmth and comfort of home, brimming with cozy-cabin style and amenities. The chalet has been completely remodeled with hardwood floors, skylights, granite countertops, updated kitchen appliances and a fireplace insert.

Nestled on a hillside, our classic A frame looks out on the Stephenson Range and Whiteface Mt., which is just two miles away. This storied Olympic mountain has been voted the Best Ski Center in the North East, and is typically open from mid-November into April. In the warmer months, Whiteface offers mountain biking, gondola rides and special events. Additional world-class mountain biking trails are accessed from nearby Hardy Road. Enjoy a lovely afternoon on nearby Lake Everest, canoeing and swimming at the town beach, or visiting the spectacular Wilmington Flume Falls. If you love fly-fishing, you can't find a better location. Less than a mile away is the West Branch of the Ausable River which is famous for its wily trout! Wilmington is, indeed, an outdoor enthusiast's mecca.

Other nearby ventures include taking a drive to the top of Whiteface Mt. on the Whiteface Veterans Memorial Highway, a visit to "Santa's Workshop" children's theme park, or a stop at the Adirondack Wildlife Refuge. All right out your front door in Wilmington!

Lake Placid Village, with all that it has to offer, is just ten beautiful miles away on one of the most picturesque roads in the Adirondacks. Here you can enjoy shopping, dining, arts and crafts, music, museums, The Olympic Center, golf, horse shows, movies, festivals, nightlife---all the hustle and bustle of this lively Olympic Village.

Back at the chalet, so much awaits...

First you'll encounter the large, wrap around deck which sports Adirondacks chairs, an outdoor dining area and new grill. Don't be surprised at the occasional chickadee that will eat from your hand! You may not get much further for awhile, caught up in the meditative mountain view.

The hot tub invites you for that relaxing dip after a day on the trails. In the evening, have a seat by the stone ringed campfire for s'mores and stories--a magical place to be!

While the chalet can sleep up to 5, please keep in mind that the living space is a total of 800 sq. ft. so guests may find it more comfortable with 4 or fewer folks. Also note, the roomy loft bedroom is accessed by a somewhat steep staircase, typical for A frame construction.

**note: we also require that our tenants complete a standard rental agreement with this booking**
