Description

Newly updated, historic 100-yr old cabin in the heart of the High Peaks. Great location near the Adirondack Rail Trail, hiking, breweries, shopping and more Walking distance to restaurants, bars, nightlife 7 miles to Lake Placid, the Olympic village Your own private spa - indoor sauna, indoor & outdoor (seasonal) showers Complimentary hiking gear, snowshoes, boot dryers Gear storage space, washer/dryer, Bear mattresses Outdoor patio, charcoal grill, and fire pit (seasonal) Bring your dog! The space Experience Saranac Lake Like a Local! Our goal is not to provide a hotel experience. Saranac Lake already has hotels for that. Instead, we offer something different: the opportunity to live in a real Adirondack neighborhood and experience the village the way locals do. Walk to your favorite coffee shop or browse local bookstores and galleries. Watch paddlers on the lake or take the kayaks out yourself. Enjoy a campfire or listen to live music downtown. Spend your time here enjoying the rhythm of village life. If you're looking for a unique place with local character, a local host, and a sense of community, you'll probably love staying here. If you're looking for a standardized hotel experience, you may be happier in one of the area's excellent hotels. Rock Ledge is an authentic, 100-year-old Adirondack cabin. It has great features like vaulted wood ceilings and a unique, handmade window. The cabin is small (around 200 sf) but includes a lot of great features to make you feel at home! Relax with family or friends (yes, your dog too!) only minutes away from hiking trails, attractions, shopping, and restaurants in your own private space. Within walking distance of downtown Saranac Lake and a 10-minute drive to Lake Placid with restaurants, shopping, and sports venues.

We got there during a snowstorm and the place was cozy and warm. Even though it was a small cabin, it felt huge on the inside! Very well decorated and designed. Calli was incredibly responsive, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and can't wait to do it in the summertime!" - Taryn "Our family of four fit comfortably in this lovely little cabin. It had everything that we needed. It was clean and free of clutter. We really enjoyed our get away." - Savanah "What a great little place! It was perfect for the weekend! We wanted to see the ice castle - it was right around the corner. We walked right over and bypassed all the traffic!" - Andrew ☆☆ LIVING ROOM ☆☆ Our cozy cabin has all you need to have a stress-free stay. The living room is ready for lounging with a couch, a leather chair, a gas live-flame heating stove and smart TV. ☆☆ SAUNA ☆☆ The sauna is a brand new SalusHeat, ultra-low EMR infrared. What could be better than a hot sauna after playing in the outdoors?! It seats 2 and will warm you up and chill you out - all at the same time! Bluetooth speakers for your favorite music or maybe a meditation podcast. Chromatherapy lighting to rejuvenate and restore balance ☆☆ KITCHEN & COFFEE ☆☆ Go out and enjoy one of our amazing local restaurants or stay in and cook a gourmet meal. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, bakeware, serving ware and utensils. There's a stovetop kettle for tea and a blender for smoothies or frozen drinks. The washer/dryer is handy for extended stays and for those sweaty hiking clothes! If you're like me, morning coffee is a must. Choose between a standard drip pot or, for the true connoisseur use the French press. Mornings are for coffee! ☆☆ BEDROOM ☆☆ The bedroom has twin bunkbeds and there's a full-size sleeper sofa in the living room. ☆☆ WORKSPACE & FURRY FRIENDS☆☆ If you have some work to do, enjoy fast internet. Making a presentation and need to look your best? We have a steamer so you can look sharp! Your dog stays free! There are food and water bowls and some treats in the kitchen. You'll be a short walk from the new Rail Trail to take Fido for a long walk or hop in the car to the Bloomingdale Bog or Baker Mountain trails just a few minutes away. ★☆ Book Today & Let Us Take Care of You in Saranac Lake! ☆★ Guest access Guests staying at this cozy, Adirondack cabin have exclusive access to numerous amenities in an in-town, lakeside setting: * New infrared sauna (Please note: Our ability to describe this unique cabin is limited by Airbnb's platform. The sauna is in the mudroom, not in 'Living Room 2' as we had to add it. Inquire if you need more info!) * Private dock with boat slips, kayaks, and swim pad - watching the town fireworks on July 4, New Years Eve, and Winter Carnival from our dock is awesome! * Outdoor seating, grill, and firepit (seasonal) * Complimentary winter & summer outdoor gear This is a dog-friendly home as long as your dog is 12+ months and housebroken. The home has free parking for one large or two compact vehicles. Other things to note You have complete privacy in your cabin. We live on the property in a separate cabin so we're immediately available to address any issues. Guest access The entire cabin, sauna, outdoor patio and a dedicated, off-street parking space plus our private dock across the street is yours to enjoy. Other things to note The cabin is located on the busiest street in the Adirondacks. You'll hear some traffic noise during the day but it quiets down in the evening and overnight. You'll be within easy walking distance of restaurants, nightlife, grocery and liquor stores, parks, and more. But, if you want a secluded cabin in the woods, this one isn't for you! Please let us know if you'll be bringing a pet. There's no extra charge and we love hosting them - just want to know who's staying with us! Due to an unusual amount of damage lately, dogs must be crated when left alone in the cabin. Please let us know if you’re bringing more than one vehicle. There’s one, off-street parking space for the cabin. Depending on the sizes of your vehicles, we may be able to accommodate them, or you may need to park one of them down the street. You'll need to supply your own firewood and kindling but they're easily available locally. We don't allow guests to forage on the property for wood or kindling. The firepit and grill are seasonal - we don't shovel them out in the winter but if you want to you're welcome to!
