Highland Cottage Super Cute-Close to Everything in Lake Placid

Looking for a small, cozy, cleverly furnished Cottage with a fireplace and all the other comforts of home, centrally located in a peaceful residential section of Lake Placid, within a five minute walk to Main Street? You found it! Maintained by the owners, we personally make sure the Cottage is always delightfully inviting and will leave you dreaming of your next visit. So fully furnished, you won't miss a thing, even your first cup of coffee or tea, when you wake up your first morning! Just added this spring, a gas fire pit on the deck for additional warmth and enjoyment of your evenings on the deck.

We stayed here with my family for Lake Placid Ironman and this place is perfect for it. It comfortably suit our family of 4 (my wife, myself and our two kids age 5 and 8) plus my TT bike and all my triathlon gear. Cathy, the host, is great and responds quickly to messages. I would stay here again for sure.

What a wonderful stay!

The 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!

Extremely easy check in/out and confortable stay

Cathy ensured we felt like at home in her Cottage. 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 :)

Lake Placid Cottage Stay

Super cute, quaint cottage a close walk to Main Street in Lake Placid. It was much bigger than we anticipated. We enjoyed our stay. Bed is upstairs in a loft, so we had to basically crawl in and out of it but we didn’t mind. Loved the bathroom, kitchen, and living room area. Perfect for a getaway. Highly reccommend staying here.

Great getaway

It 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👍😊

Cozy Lake Placid Cabin

Just 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!

Location location location

This place is perfectly located to enjoy all Main Street has to offer without having to find parking. Walked to everything. The “bedroom” was the only thing that we didn’t like. It’s a tiny little loft space more suitable for a kid to sleep so we slept on the couch. Bathroom was great, kitchen worked well. Will be back

Needs a thorough cleaning

Tons 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.

Restful stay amid lakes and mountains.

An amazing transformation from a single-story building to a three level, comfortable, spacious cabin, filled with solid wood furnishings in a rustic Adirondack style. Many pieces are of antique quality. Modern appliances, all the dishes, pans etc. you could want complete the picture. The property is on a quiet lane, off a road, surrounded by trees. This makes it very quiet. A three-minute walk down Marcy Street takes you to Lake Placid high street, where there are many shops, bars and restaurants. (It is better to walk back on Hillcrest after dinner, as this is the least steep option!) There is a paved sidewalk around Mirror Lake with many fine views. At just under three miles, it is the perfect stroll to wake up in the morning, or to work up an appetite at night. Hannaford is a large supermarket just outside of town, with a huge range of artisan, organic, free range etc. products. Aldi at Saranac Lake has a smaller range, but also good quality, and is rather less expensive. I had a great time here and feel “recharged.” Thanks Cathy and Ted. Oh, and the cookies were delicious!

Highland 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.
