Amazing

Perfect for a family trip to the North Pole. The hot tub had astonishing views, the sauna worked perfectly. With board games and ping pong and so much room it was a great stay with our six adults and various ages of 6 children and our dog! Nobody had a bad time on this quick trip. The owners were excellent communicators. Would definitely stay here again.Oh. And the floor lay out is great for children under two as every door can be shut and the outside doors can lock and there is no risk of a child falling down the stairs.

Hidden gem

My family and I had the best time at this location! The views are unbelievable, it was clean, so peaceful and still close to everything. Our only complaint was how hot and uncomfortable the basement got even though it got down to the high 30s at night. Other than that, we will definitely be back!

Christmas skiing holiday

We had a great time over Christmas when we stayed in The Whiteface Chalet. Very well equipped house, the only thing we missed at times was a bigger space for socializing. Also, only 11 barstools around the kitchen island when advertised to be set up for 12. The jacuzzi, sauna and steam shower were amazing to come home to after skiing every day.

Great Views!

When we pulled up we noticed how amazing the views were of the property - You look right at Whiteface and Esther Mountain. the walk down to the Ausable was great too. We did have an issue with cleanliness when we went inside, but the owners were responsive and showed up right away. It is great for a family, but if you are a large group of adults, bring a cooler as there is only one fridge. Having a gas grill would be a plus instead of the charcoal but otherwise it was a great place!

The View!!!!

The views are breathtaking!!! Unobstructed views!! Watch the sunrise from the deck, the sauna, or the dining room table. Enjoy sunset as you bbq over charcoal. And the stars at night!!!! On a quiet and private road. The kitchen is well equipped. The chalet is clean and the beds are comfortable. What a beautiful place to spend our 30th anniversary!! Thank you to Judi who was so quick to respond to any inquiries and who took care of us so well.

Great ski house

The house was as advertised, clean, and totally seamless check-in/check-out. Judi checked in on us and was available for any help. Loved the electric fireplace, the hot tub, and the fantastic view of Whiteface. Beds were comfortable. House was well equipped with basics like toilet paper, laundry soap, dishwasher soap, and bar soap. The lower level is significantly cooler than the upstairs, especially when running the fireplace--warmer linens would be a good addition. And while there was plenty of room to sleep our group of 11, and a great large dining table, the living area is pretty small and only seats 6. We only used the kitchen for breakfast--it was well-equipped, but tight to cook for 10+. Super convenient to Whiteface--would stay again!

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!

Absolutely everything about our stay was beyond perfect! Communication from beginning to end was super easy and flawless. The house itself was just as pictured, except the view in person, a photo can't possibly capture and do it justice. The view is absolutely breathtaking! It felt like we could almost touch the mountains! The hot tub and sauna were such a bonus and made our time there even more enjoyable. The house and property were immaculate, super clean, and inviting. We pack a lot. So, the large foyer was wonderful to accommodate all of our extras. Can't thank the hosts enough for sharing their beautiful home with us. We had an amazing time and are very much looking forward to coming back! This home is definitely a solid five star + !!

Beautiful Retreat with Stunning Views

Our recent stay at the VRBO cabin was nothing short of magical. Nestled in a serene location, the cabin offered breathtaking views of Whiteface Mountain, which could be enjoyed right from the comfort of the hot tub on the deck. It's not every day you find such an immaculately clean and well-maintained getaway that offers both privacy and picturesque landscapes. The hot tub was a particular delight, providing a soothing respite to our sore muscles after days filled with canoeing and hiking adventures. Evening time brought its own spectacle, with the star-studded sky brilliantly clear, allowing us to gaze at the Milky Way with nothing but our naked eyes. The lack of light pollution in the area made this experience even more profound. This cabin didn't just serve as a place to stay; it was a vital part of our vacation experience, enhancing every activity and moment spent there. Without a doubt, this VRBO cabin is a hidden gem that provided us with unforgettable memories. Whether it was the awe-inspiring views, the pristine cleanliness, or the luxurious hot tub, every aspect of our stay was incredible.
