A great Hideaway
A great place to get away from everything and just relax. Cozy, clean well supplied cabin with everything you may need. Far enough away to be secluded, but close enough to places to go and anything else you may need .

Great vacation
Wife and I had a fantastic time here! The property was very clean. The cabin was cozy and the amenities were fantastic for the space. The West Branch Ausable was high during our stay but we still managed to get some good fishing in, as well as plenty of relaxation.

Five Star Experience
From start to finish, everything about this trip was exceptional. The host, Scot, was amenable, checked in on me thoughtfully, respected my privacy, and communicated clearly throughout. The pictures were accurate, though they didn’t fully capture the beauty of the cabin or the surrounding creek. The cabin itself is lovely — perfect for one or two people. It was spotless (truly impressively clean), with easy-to-use appliances, and the view and atmosphere were incredibly comforting.What stood out most was how peaceful everything felt. The sound of the creek, the fresh air, and the cozy charm of the cabin created the perfect environment to unwind, recharge, and just be. It’s the kind of place that makes it easy to leave the noise of everyday life behind. I left feeling completely at peace and already can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

We stayed for 2 nights and it was fantastic. Good idea to come with some groceries for sure. We brought a few meals with us and had a wonderful stay. The hiking is beautiful in the area also.

Super Cozy!
Amazing little cozy cabin! We had a great time! Very good selection of books, watched some scary movies and we ended up reading ghost stories of the Adirondacks. Excellent communication from our Host Scot from before we booked the trip up until out last night there. Very clean cabin! 10/10 I'd recommend:)

Snowshoe/Lake Placid Trip
It’s a quaint cabin in Jay, New York. Perfect stay if planning to do some traveling/adventuring. The cabin was very clean and the owner was very informative about the whole process. Be aware that there is not great cell reception in the area, but the owner provides wifi.

Great Stay!
I love this spot on the river! The space is just as advertised and is perfect for 1-2 people. Scot is an excellent host and is easily contacted if you need anything. Nothing like a fire here watching the sunset!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The riverfront setting with mountains views was gorgeous! The cottage was small but cozy, and was equipped with everything we needed.
Thanks to our host, Scot, for sharing this lovely place!

PERFECT Spot
Idyllic property, right on a gorgeous stretch of the Ausable River. Clean and comfy cabin with all that you need. We truly relaxed, spent a lot of time enjoying the river and the views. Great proximity to all that makes this area of the Adirondacks so special - Wilmington, Whiteface, Lake Placid, Jay, Keene -- all nearby. Lots of great hikes in the area. Our host Scot was super-responsive. We'd go back, for sure!

25th anniversary get-away in the woods
We were looking for a quiet little get-away in the woods, with things to do nearby and this checked all of our boxes! Beautiful area with nearby restaurants and shops, but you feel so far away from the hustle and bustle while on the property; it was perfect! The cottage had everything we needed and a great view of the water!
