About this property
OLYMPIC HOUSE ON MAIN STREET VILLAGE AND MIRROR LAKE HOTTUB PINGPONG FOOSBALL
This Adirondack historic Olympic home has such a presence on Main street that many guests refer to it as the Olympic "Mansion." Our exclusive Olympic home was owned by three Olympic Gold medalists. We tribute this charming home to all of them. While vacationing in Lake placid it is all about comfort, style and LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! And, this historic home has it all. There will be NO concerns about parking as everything is in walking distance from the Olympic House. While some other listings describe their location as a a 'short walk' to town this home is on Main Street -our sidewalk goes down the street to the main street of the Lake Placid Village. Nestled within a grove of tall Pines, Birches and Cedar trees, it has a private feeling, yet you are just steps away from the awesome renowned Olympic Village and a stones throw away from beautiful Mirror Lake. The Mansion's Bar/Lounge has a beautiful carved bar, surrounded by a 70 in flat screen TV. The ample over stuffed furniture was designed with comfort in mind so one can relax have a beer, iced tea or just snuggle up and read a book. The adjacent living room houses an authentic brick ADK fireplace ready to light for your enjoyment. The large fully appointed dinning room easily seats 10+ with place setting for 16. The modern kitchen houses brand new dishwasher, refrigerator, stove and microwave, With a breakfast area perfect for morning conversations over coffee. The kitchen has a back stairway that will take you to the second floor bedrooms and one more flight up takes you to the upstairs game room complete with a mini fridge, large flat screen TV, Foosball table and really comfy large leather sofa and love seat. On the same floor, there is a modern, clean full bathroom and more sleeping available with yet another bedroom - number 7 - with two twin pillow top beds. Outside there is a grand front porch, a 4 burner Weber grill, an outdoor pingpong table, a volley ball net.. and a brand new 6-8 person hot tub! There is something for every one. Please remember to ask us about other Luxury Vacation Homes in our StayADK portfolio. Established guests receive discounts.
This historic and beautiful Olympic home features 7 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a fully equipped and modern kitchen, a living room with a working fireplace, a dining room that seats 10+, a family room with a foosball table, a downstairs game room with a pingpong table, there are 3 tv's, children's/young adult book collection, puzzles and games galore, comfortable leather sofas, reclining reading chair and views of the Olympic Village Mirror Lake and the Adirondack Mountains including Whiteface.

I have stayed at this house a few times now and as titled it never disappoints. Great location and plenty of room for everyone. Had some nice weather and really got to enjoy the porch during our stay.
Very nice older home home in walking distance to many downtown Lake Placid attractions. The home is very spacious, and the owner shared the history of the home, which was interesting. Overall, our group was very satisfied with the accommodations, and we will definitely consider staying here again.
This home is incredible !! Anne, the owner is lovely. She met us and gave us the history. Location was perfect for our family. Needs a little TLC , but we loved it.
Gail and Peter
Overall, the house is in a perfect location.
Lots of room, the front porch is fantastic for relaxing after the games. Double washers and dryers are great as well.
Parking at the house is the only concern if you are a large group of individuals.
It was perfect for our family of 16. We had a wonderful time. It needs a few improvements. Mattresses were too soft, comforters need cleaning, oven takes too long to preheat, hot tub not filled sufficiently and no hose to add water, faucets drip. The location could not be better. The house was completely decorated beautifully for the holiday. We would definitely like to return.
On our recent trip to the Lake Placid area we stayed at 44 Mercy Rd., Lake property .
We were pleasantly surprised to meet the property owner, who gave us a full tour of the house, and she couldn’t be nicer .
She explained to us everything about the property and the surrounding area and answered all our questions satisfactorily.
She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in guiding us to make our stay enjoyable .
We did have a few things that we would have like her to improve but overall we had a great experience staying at the property and recommended for someone who like to stay near the lake Placid area for quick access to most attractions.
This charming home is specially great for large groups of people which we had .
Hopefully this review is helpful.
Went to Lake Placid for a wedding and needed a house for 13 people. This was a great house in a great location. Beds were comfortable. Ann was quick to respond with any questions.
Check is at 4pm. We had to wait for owner before entering which I never experienced before, but she gave us the history of the house which was interesting. She was 1/2 hr late, but was in contact with me and was apologetic. Also in the description she needs to change the amount of cars that are allowed in the driveway on VRBO. It said room for 6 vehicles, but it was only 4. She did have other places for our cars to park and it was close by (walking distance).
Ann is a wonderful host. Very attentive and available for any questions. Our large family stayed in this house for a holiday weekend and it was superb. There’s enough space to be together and play games, and be comfortable. The house is historic and the location cannot be beat. We love to cook and we were impressed with the well-appointed kitchen (and super sharp knives!)
Wonderful place to stay with a large group. Ann is an amazing host and committed to making your stay memorable. House is in a great location right in main street and has something for everyone from small kids to adults.
The location of the house couldn’t me more ideal to explore Main Street. Ann was courteous, thorough, and extremely responsive during the lead-up to the stay and during check-in.
Had a great experience, and great time. The house is huge and obviously well-cared for, the owners made the process fun and easy, and the location is perfect. Highly recommend.
We had another great stay at the Mansion. The house has 7 bedrooms and many many different areas to gather or to relax quietly - I including the front porch and the hot tub. The location in the center of town is super-convenient. We’ll be back!
