Thank you very much for a lovely stay in Lake Placid. Our stay was very comfortable, our meetings went without hiccups in the quiet neighborhood. The rental is a great setting, very near to main street. We couldn't have asked for better accommodations, will be booking again.

Our family had a lovely time gathering together in a home that provides plenty of space, atmosphere, & convenience to food, shopping, & outdoor recreation. Madeleine & David are pleasant to work with.

This location is central to Main Street and the lake. 30 sec walk to town and a gorgeous view of Lake Placid. The house was beautifully decorated and felt very homey. Madeline the owner was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any of our questions. Looking forward to staying there again on our next trip to LP.

Stayed for IMLP in July 2023. Two families: 4 adults and 7 kids. The house was bigger and nicer than the pictures suggest (and the pictures are great). The location was perfect to access town and get to and from the Ironman. The rooms are all very big and the deck overlooking the lake was a great place to sit and relax. Highly recommend!

We had the best time in Lake Placid, and so much of that had to do with this house! It is even better in person - there is so much space in the living area/kitchen that was actually bigger than I thought it was going to be based on the photos. The bedrooms upstairs are pretty big with comfy beds, and it was so nice for each bedroom to have their own bathroom. The front porch was amazing, and a great gathering place for people. Being steps from downtown was incredible and with a big group. It gave people the freedom to come and go from the house as they pleased, or not stay out as late as others and just easily walk home. We were there for my bachelorette party and it truly was magical! I love Lake Placid and cannot WAIT to come back to visit...hopefully with a group to this house! Thank you, Madeleine, for everything!!

We had a group of 10 guys who came from all over the northeast and Italy to reconnect and celebrate us all turning 50 this year. This home was perfect for our needs, with every guy getting their own bed, although several had to share rooms. Each room had its own bath as well, which helped with getting us up and out the door each morning to enjoy the wonders of Lake Placid. And it didn't take much as the house is right in the center of town with spectacular views of Mirror Lake. We returned each evening to spend time together around the large dining table or spread out on the ample seating in both the living room and out on the front porch. I highly recommend this home to both families and groups looking to have some quality time together in a fantastic setting. Oh, and I cannot say enough about the owners. They were great, courteous, and very responsive. I hope to return here someday to share this home with others.

We stayed at Shore Crest over a weekend in July with family and friends. You absolutely cannot beat this location, it doesn’t get any better. Madeleine was a very gracious host - she emailed us prior to our stay to make sure everything was ready for us, answered all of my pre-trip questions immediately, and met us at the house when we arrived to ensure we got settled. The house had many nice extras - lots of games and puzzles that we made good use of, there were clear directions and instructions for everything (tvs, cable, lights, etc). I had to call Madeleine late at night once (we locked ourselves out of one of the bedrooms) and she answered immediately and also fixed the issue immediately. Great hosts and we definitely would stay there again!
