Amazing Stay
Posted Apr. 20, 2024 on HomeAwayHighland Cottage is a great local stay in Lake Placid. Yes, the bed is up in the loft and you can’t stand up, but that was no issue for us. We loved the place and will be back.

We were welcomed by a warm house on a cold winter day, cookies on the table and a letter with helpful tips and instructions. House is fully furmished with pots/pans, mattreses, pillows, music, wifi, dishes, even sugar and flower. Loved loved loved our stay and will book it next year as well :)

Great getaway
Posted Oct. 6, 2023 on HomeAwayIt was our second time there and it was better than we remembered! The cottage is cozy, clean and stocked with more than we could have asked for! Love the area and so nice to park your car and leave it there! We walked to downtown Lake Placid and Mirror Lake! Beautiful area and wonderful cottage! Thank you McKenzie for welcoming us with the delicious chocolate chip cookies! Would highly recommend this cottage👍😊

What a wonderful stay!
Posted Sep. 4, 2023 on HomeAwayThe Highland Cottage is adorable and fitted with everything you could possibly need. Catherine was attentive and flexible with requests. The location is perfect for walking to shops, bars and restaurants as long as you’re okay with the hill. For us, it was a great workout and a fabulous vacation!

Needs a thorough cleaning
Posted Aug. 21, 2023 on HomeAwayTons of cobwebs and dustbunnies. Refrigerator was leaking into the floor. Deck in poor condition. I wouldn’t be comfortable permitting my family to sit out there. Deck furniture coverings were filled with rain water. Birdbath was also filled with water and mosquito larvae. Overall, things are rundown. The location was convenient to the village and it was quiet. Lastly, the loft, which is the main sleeping quarters, is very stuffy.

Im so sorry that you did not enjoy your stay at the Highland Cottage. We have not had a break on the rain this summer and I apologize that there was rain water on the deck furniture coverings. The birds hadn't complained about the mosquito larvae so I'm sorry I didn't realize that was happening. The deck is perfectly safe. Wish you could have let me know about the refrigerator. We'll definitely check out the cobweb and dustbunny situation and remedy that. Thanks for your input.

Cozy Lake Placid Cabin
Posted Aug. 15, 2023 on HomeAwayJust lovely - the cabin is just so cute on a nice quiet street. A real short walk and you are in town for shopping and dining. We enjoyed easy access to hikes just a short drive out from town with beautiful scenery all around. Plenty of cookware in the kitchen if you care to cook! And the bed is very comfy. The hosts, Cathy and Ted, are quick to respond if you have a question and delightful to deal with. Very relaxing! We had a wonderful time!
