When i pulled up, i noticed there was no staff on site and took me a minute to figure out how to unlock the door with an 'invisible' key pad. Upon entry, i noticed the place was clean enough with a small kitchentte and full sized fridge. When i arrived the TV didnt work so i called thenoffice andnthey came.right away to set it up. After a long 20 mile day out on the trail, i was hoping for a nice hot shower. To my surprise, the water in thebshower was varely lukewarm, so it sas a no shower night for me. Thebsurroubding area has little no food options that arent ridiculously expensive. I ordered a medium pizza ans small (runny) milkshake from a joont down the road and the bill was almost 40$.
This is a great find. Everything is very bare bones but for the price and location it is worth it. It is very quiet and comfortable. The kitchenette is a great addition!
Property is older and dated, but it had all we needed.
It was clean and spacious.
There is a beautiful brooke behind the building. It would be wonderful to have a good view.
The price was good.
Clean and comfortable. 2 bedroom 2 bath is a big plus. balcony is in front of a wooded area with a creek. Price is good too. Close to Lake Placid (but much less crowded) and the fall foliage along the way is very beautiful.
Some suggestions:
1. Each apartment should has a hairdryer
2. We are in 5A, would feel safer if the door to the balcony has a blind or curtain as it is directly towards the bedroom.
3. Many cleaned cups and mugs, but it would be ideal to provide a few disposable ones.
Overall, it was a good experience and highly recommend!
Excellent stay! Exceeded our expectations. Perfect location for easy access to Lake Placid and trails in the Keene valley. Very clean and cozy, and newly renovated kitchen was great. Owner very responsive through Expedia. The area is gorgeous in the fall and we certainly hope to return!
Please let the owner know that when I got there the gas was left on on the gas stove.

Convenient location for hiking. Good water pressure. Our room was switched to one not selected. Need extra pillows the ones provided are thin. If it wasnt for the fact we do not spend much time in our rooms because we are out hiking most of the day i would rate this lower but for the price, it serves the purpose. There is a place very close for breakfast and the ice jam is a great dinner place.
This property was very outdated, and in very poor condition the rooms were very dark and depressing, and the staff was not particularly accommodating. I asked for an upstairs room was not accommodated yet when I arrived, there were several empty up there definitely not staying here again I woke up and bolted out of there at 5:30 AM.
