Beds were comfy, we loved that it was a cabin with a fireplace, and it was stocked for the amenities in our unit. Staff was very helpful prompt, and responsive in their no-contact type of way. Shower was hot (but could have lasted longer), and good water pressure and shower head height. WiFi was strong and stable. In addition to the fireplace, there is a normal heater which quickly could heat up the room. Location to Whiteface is basically as good as it gets. I also noticed a shuttle bus to Whiteface stop in front. If you are looking for a place that feels like your cabin in the Adirondacks, this is that type of place.
The bathroom itself had no heat, so either the bathroom door had to be opened or the bathroom would be cold (in winter). Space was a bit limited, however items stored very easy under the bed.

Nestled in a peaceful setting, the chalet offered a cosy and inviting atmosphere that made it feel like a true home away from home. The chalet itself was beautifully maintained, with thoughtful touches that enhanced the comfort and rustic charm. Despite being immersed in nature, the location was surprisingly accessible, with shops, restaurants, and essentials just a short drive away.

Close to attractions yet secluded. The camp was clean and comfortable. We were able to go swimming at flume falls and check out the peak of Whiteface mountain. Lake placid is 20 minutes away. We had a great time for our 25th Anniversary.
Parking is not exactly motorcycle friendly, but we managed. Could have used A/C but not normally at the foot of Whiteface mountain.

Clean, cozy, pleasant cabin with nice showers, sitting room and TV. More homey than fancy, a little bit lived-in, but in excellent repair and well-looked after. Contactless checkin was simple and nice. Owners were very communicative and helpful. Located close to village amenities and breakfast restaurants. A really good value and pleasant experience, would book again.

We had a wonderful stay at the chalets. Everything matched the description — it was clean, cozy, and comfortable. The host was friendly and always available, quickly responding to any questions. The location is convenient — surrounded by nature and beautiful views, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The house had everything we needed.

The property was in a great location central to Keene, Wilmington, and Lake Placid. The cabin I stayed in (Hemlock) was clean, spacious, and cozy. The wood burning fireplace was a great bonus. You could purchase wood right on the property as well which was convenient. The owners kept in touch via text which was nice.
No complaints at all

Great location to town, good food, Ausable Chasm. Very helpful, friendly, available hosts. Chalets are so cozy and home-like, artistic touches, great amenities. We'd go to the area again just to stay at The Wilderness Inn and explore the area further.
All was great. They are working on upgrades to make it even better!!

The location is perfect as we were skiing at Whiteface. There are also hiking trails closeby. We loved the Coble lookout, which is about 10 mins drive. Apart from the location, we loved the cabin. We can have a fireplace in the evening which made the cabin even cozier. Pets are allowed to which is perfect, so our furbaby can come with us.

It was exactly what we were expecting. Comfortable, clean, well located. There was a fireplace inside and a firepit outside. The bed were comfortable. Coffee machine. Easy to Find, well Placed. The owners were very nice. Easy check in.
A part from the heating that was a bit loud (just bring your earplugs and it’s perfect), everything was perfect.

From the minute I reserved, the owners were helpful, engaged and accommodating. The location was perfect for our visit with family and some much needed relaxation time for us. The cabin was well appointed, VERY clean, comfortable, quiet and inviting. We came back early every night of our stay to enjoy the fire and relax. The beds and pillows were very comfortable; not old an tattered as we have experienced in other places. the kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. The bathroom was very clean, with ample towels and everything was in working order. We thoroughly enjoyed this property. I wish our schedule enabled us to stay longer. I will certainly stay here for future visits (should there be availability).
