First of all, 4x4 or not, the hill going to these cabins should be diligently plowed. We were there for 5 days, and it literally snowed every day that we were there. In those 5 days a Jeep Wrangler came and plowed once, and didn't put down any salt. The evening that we arrived it was actively snowing and to access the front door of the property, we had to traverse snow so deep, that I had to change shoes to do it. We couldn't even find the steps to get down to the porch, because the steps were covered by deep snow. Once we finally made it to the porch/deck, we found the worst Fisher-Price, plastic shovel imaginable. Once I began to clear the "steps", I realized that they weren't steps, at all. They were pieces of flagstone, laid into the hill, with NO railing, whatsoever. Needless to say, I shoveled them as well as I could, with the crappy shovel from the porch. When those flagstone steps got icy, they were very dangerous to go up and down. They are a hazard! You need some REAL concrete steps, and a railing! NO ONE WANTS TO COME ON VACATION AND HAVE TO SHOVEL SNOW!!! And now for the house...It was much smaller than the VRBO pics. There was not enough common area seating, and no TV in that common area. The TV in the lower bedroom is way too small. Also, no one wants to try to figure out how to use a streaming service, just to watch TV. GET SOME CABLE! There were 2 couples in my party, and once we brought in our luggage, there was no place to safely put it. There isn't a closet in the cabin, so consequently we spent the entire weekend tripping over our own luggage. The listing was a lie, it CANNOT sleep 6. I would never come back to this cabin again. The winter snow made it bad, but even in non winter months, the cabin itself was completely underwhelming.

My wife and I spent 4 nights at this lovely cabin on the water. We stayed in Seneca Lake to ski, sightsee, and tour Lake Placid. For anyone who is interested in a more relaxed, community feel, I highly recommend staying here instead of Lake Placid. The commute was only about 10 minutes, but Seneca had so much to offer. The cabin was in great condition, cozy, and welcoming. If you are looking for a nice cabin with a lovely water view, I’d highly recommend staying here. *if you are staying in the winter, I’d recommend a 4x vehicle, the driveway is pretty steep, however they had someone plow it each morning it snowed!

Easy to find on the Internet, easy to arrange the stay, great property, walking access to downtown

Very cozy cabin with a beautiful lake view. Everything I wanted and expected for a getaway for our 20th wedding anniversary.

Everything worked out perfectly. Looking forward to renting it again

Enjoyed the cozy cabin for a few days ! It was quaint with a beautiful view. Neighboring cabins are quite close by which was ok but I didn’t appreciate on pictures pre booking.

We hiked for hours every morning, swam, kayaked and fished off our dock every afternoon h til night. We made one little trip to hike near Lake placid and visited that town. Couldn’t have been much better!

Loved the special attention by the owners with the wine gift basket and the dog area. Wish I would have brought my dog. We used the solo fire pit every night and loved it. The lake was busy in front of us but everyone was so friendly, such a nice community.

The amenities and extra treats were terrific. Very comfortable. Great place for our dog.

It was exactly what we were looking for. We enjoyed the quiet and relaxing atmosphere while exploring the town and Lake Placid. We will definitely be booking again next year if possible.

What a lovely experience! Felt like home from the moment we walked in. The location is just perfect and the accommodations were wonderful and so welcoming. We would love to visit again during the summer months for another experience. Would absolutely recommend !

Chose this property because of location being close to winter carnival & Paul Smiths College.

Wonderful time enjoying outdoor activities , proximity to Saranac Lake and Lake Placid. There were innumerable amenities to make the stay luxurious and fun. Pet friendly with nice walk to town.
