About this house rental
McKinley House, built in 1850. A family friendly house located in a magical destination for your vacation, The Village of Lake Placid NY. The house has incredible mountain views that look out over The Olympic Ski Jumps. Our house is old with creaky floors, and squeaky doors but we've done a lot of renovating & upgrading to make it feel homey, comfortable, and beautiful. Under The Moon vacation renters have full and private access to the 2-story house consisting of 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, wrap- around screened in porch, a patio to sit and enjoy your breakfast or to cook dinner on the outdoor grill. We do have an occupied studio apartment located on the third floor with its own separate entrance. You will have full and private use of the whole rest of the house including the whole porch, deck, and yard, to play cornhole or just to reminisce by the firepit. 3 free parking spaces available. An outdoor security camera is located above the garage door. Under The Moon vacation house is located less then 1/2 mi from downtown Lake Placid, just minutes' walk to all the shops, restaurants, & Mirror Lake Beach. We are right next door to The Olympic Arena and the finish line for The Ironman. We are just a 2-minute walk to The Whiteface Mt. free bus shuttle that will take you to and from Whiteface Mountain Ski Center. Just down the street you can catch the free trolly that will take you to main street, the supermarkets, horseshow grounds, or the ski jumps. We are also a 2 min. Walk to Big zs Bowling Center. Great house location if you’re visiting for a wedding. We do not host team event renters.

This is a wonderful place to stay and is as advertised. We have rented many places, but none have two King size beds and smart TV in every room. Convenient to the center of town but if you are relaxing at home there is a very calming view of the mountains with the outside space and deck area. The kitchen is fully stocked, and the neighborhood is extremely quiet. Walkable to Mirror Lake or to take a ride on the shuttle. This is a place we will return to and were pleasantly surprised.

My family (2 adults, 2 early 20's) stayed at Sonja's mid August 2024 and thoroughly enjoyed our time. The house is charming, extremely comfortable and very well equipped (especially the kitchen) with everything you need in a quiet neighborhood. We made use of the firepit, grill, deck and enclosed porch which made a great place for morning coffee. Communication with Sonja was very timely. The location make walking to the Olympic center and downtown Lake Placid very convenient. Overall we loved our stay and would definitely recommend the house for anyone. Thanks Sonja.

We were in town for a family wedding and were lucky enough to find this charming rental (and at a fraction of the cost of the hotels that had been recommended).
The home had every amenity you could possibly want. It was clean and stylish with comfortable beds. We absolutely loved the outdoor fire pit and pergola/pavilion on the deck. Sonja was a very attentive host and kept the lines of communication open. We highly recommend this lovely property!

My family and I had a wonderful experience staying at Sonja's house. The house was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The mattress that we stayed on felt new and comfortable (not too firm, not too soft) and the kitchen had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable/functional stay. We appreciated Sonja's little welcome package, and instructions on the house. Check-in / check-out were seamless. The bath towels were plush, water pressure was perfect. Honestly felt like I was staying in a home away from home and that was what we needed during our Ironman weekend. Thank you Sonja for the hospitable stay. We hope to visit again! - Maria

Well maintained in the center of everything. Very nice amenities and small touches that really made the difference. LOVED the outdoor spaces. If not for some rainy weather one of the days, would have probably spent all out time outdoors.

Our stay here was fantastic! When we arrived the check-in instructions were incredibly easy to follow and accurate. Even though there was a small issue with one of the bathrooms, Sonja was very understanding and responsive and had the issue sorted out in no time! The house was clean, functional and exactly as shown in the pictures. The highlight was being so close to downtown Lake Placid. We could walk everywhere in less than 15 minutes which made it easy to explore the surrounding town.
If you're thinking of spending a weekend in Lake Placid, look no further than here!

The house was great, and Sonja the host was super helpful with a little bathroom issue. She also left us some New Years treats when we arrived, and we had a great stay at the McKinley House!
