Perfect place for a tranquil family gathering - just a few blocks from town
Short-Term Rental Permit No - STR20-00464
High Peaks Gathering Place provides a wonderful setting to host family reunions, bridal shower and small company events. The 6500 square feet spacious house has 9 bedrooms and 6 full bathroom and can sleep up to 18 guest. Please note that this number accounts for children. The house would not comfortably sleep 18 adults.
The house is just a few minutes walk from center of town, Mirror Lake and Lake Placid Marina, yet it sits on a quiet residential street for a peaceful get together with family and friends. For nature lovers, there are abundance of hiking trails. Whiteface is approximately 7 miles from the house and it offers activities all year around.
The kitchen has two ovens and two dishwashers, making it efficient to cook for large families. There is a drip coffee maker as well a k-cup machine. The house offers a large mudroom for everyone to store their boots and hang their coats. And one of the most unique features this house offers is the equipment drying room. Hang your wet winter attire and warm up your ski boots in the drying room and you are ready to hit the snow again!
This beautiful home was perfect for our family vacation with our daughter, son, and their families. It's only a few blocks from Main Street and Mirror Lake. The kitchen has everything you could ever want and is better stocked than my own! We had fun cooking many meals together. The granddaughters loved badminton and ping pong, and we all loved playing pool and Pac Man. The home has plenty of places to gather or to just quietly read a book. There are plenty of nice bedrooms and bathrooms so we could spread out with our own spaces. Check in was right at 10:00 a.m. with easy coded door locks. Kim was an outstanding and responsive host and the Lake Placid area has many opportunities to see and do new things. We would definitely rent this home again and our family left the week with many special memories of all the fun we had together.
We were absolutely blown away by the property! We enjoyed our stayâthe bedrooms and bathrooms were all spacious and clean. The kitchen, living room, and dining room comfortably accommodated our large group (lots of seating options and space) visiting Lake Placid! We were impressed with all the amenities and how well the house was stocked (lots of utensils, glassware, plates, serving dishes, games, outdoor games, etc.). The house was also in a perfect location, close proximity to downtown and plenty of parking. Kim was great with communication before and during our stay, sheâs a great host! I would love to return for another stay at this VRBO property.
We arrived at the house and immediately felt like we were home! The house is beautiful and even better than advertised. High ceilings, plenty of space for every guest, comfortable beds, and all the kitchen space/amenities you could want!10/10 would recommend this property to anyone that wants a comfortable and luxurious stay in Lake Placid!
Exceptionally clean, roomy and well maintained home right in the heart of Lake Placid.
My wife and I hosted a 5-night get-together for my four siblings and two brother-in-laws. Everyone was extremely pleased with High Peaks house. It was the cleanest, roomiest and best equipped property that we have rented through VRBO and we have rented quite a few houses over the past 15 years. We loved the mud room for stashing our coats, boots, backpacks, etc. after coming back from our hikes and the drying closet came in really handy when we had some wet days. The location of the house in the center of Lake Placid was great. Kim was very responsive to our phone calls for assistance. All in all an exceptional property that we highly recommend.
Our family was very happy with all aspects of this house. Really beautiful house with tons of room with a great location. 2 minute walk to Main Street to be right on Mirror Lake, restraunts, shops, etc. beautiful area. Very easy to speak with property manager and everything in listing is accurate. We look forward to coming back.
Our four children and spouses were in town for a wedding. This home was perfect for our group. lots of space, clean, convenient location and every possible thing we could need was supplied. definitely recommend staying here if you have a large group.

This home is stunning. Every amenity you could ask for is in this house. Two fridges, two ovens, two dishwashers, a drying room for your gear, laundry, WiFi, bathrooms, bedrooms... everything is in amazing condition, well organized and absolutely lovely. And the town of Lake Placid is charming, with great restaurants and shops and beaches and boating and sites to see and places to visit. We hope to return. It was an amazing spot for our family of 15. THANK YOU!
This house is an amazing space for a large group of all ages. The location is within walking distance to the center of town. This property provides plenty of private parking and activities both inside and out to entertain kids both young and old.
Three generations (17 pp) stayed at this property for four nights. Three levels of living offered each family plenty of space to call their own while also having many central areas for gathering. Endless opportunities for fun with all of the options available. We had mostly rainy days so it was important to have things to keep everyone busy while indoors. From playing ping pong on the top floor to playing pool on the lower level, and spikeball in the garage, there was plenty to do. When able to go outside, we played volleyball and badminton while having a bbq in the backyard.
The location of the home was wonderful. It was so great to walk to the downtown area. Short drives to some of the Lake Placid highlights, grocery store, brew pubs & restaurants. All in all, very convenient.
The house was extremely clean, had everything stocked, comfortable beds and furniture. Our stay was just spectacular. We are so pleased with our time in this home, making memories that will last a lifetime.
"Wow" is all anyone in our group could say about this house. The pictures do not do the space justice. Our group was comprised of 17 extended family members - 11 adults and 6 kids (ages 1-9yo). There were so many beds that we were able to adjust sleeping arrangements during our stay. Each family unit had its own bathroom. The entry and mudroom area were plenty big for our ski and hockey equipment, as was the immaculate garage. The heated mudroom closet was amazing - we warmed our ski boots and hung the kids snow gear in there to dry.
The house is unbelievably stocked. The kitchen has every possible utensil/baking/cooking dish you could want, and there were plenty of dishes, glasses, and silverware. The owner also made sure we had extra paper-towels and toilet paper. There were ample bath towels, pillows and blankets (nice ones too).
They thought of everything for this house. Two dishwashers. Individual light switches for the bunk beds. Heated bathroom floors. The only thing we missed was a hot tub.
Finally, you can't beat the location of this house. We walked to dinner the 3 nights that we went out.
The owner was communicative and very accommodating. I can't recommend this house enough!
This beautiful house was the perfect location for our Friendsgiving!! There was plenty of room for sleeping, card cakes, ping pong, pool, cooking and relaxing! The owners thought of everything! I canât think of one utensil, cookware, pillow, nightlightâŠwe needed! The instructions were easy to follow and easy to implement. The bedding was comfortable and the rooms well stocked. The location is idea for walks downtown or around the lake. Seriously, the perfect place!
We truly enjoyed our stay. The house was even better than we hoped for with plenty of room and bathrooms.we enjoyed the gas fireplace and the dining room table was great for a group of eleven with more than enough room to spare.
We have rented a lot of properties in many locations & this one is by far my favorite!!! This was my second time staying here & I loved it even more than the first time. The house is gorgeous, spotless & equipped with everything you could possibly need & then some. Our group consisted of 14 adults a 4 children & there was more than enough space for everyone..whether you wanted to all be together or needed some quiet space alone. Thank you for an amazing experience once againâŠthis was a birthday celebration I will never forget!!
The house was perfect! We were in town for a wedding and this place made it the perfect weekend. We hope to be back soon and will be recommending to everyone!
The home is quite spacious with a great layout for friends and family. The owners are very organized and quite gracious. First and foremost, the house has Central A/C. This summer it was cool when we were there, but other summers in Placid it has been HOT. The C A/C ability was a key for us. The kitchen is well stocked and has a large island and separate eating area. Very nice laundry area, especially when a large family is there. We had 18 guests for dinner and the dining room and deck space was fantastic. The deck on the first floor is great for entertaining and having 2 tables was handy for eating outside after grilling. My family loved the yard with the volleyball/badminton net, corn hole and other games provided by the owners. We have stayed in Lake Placid for the last 10 summers and this is the best house we have stayed in. I highly recommend High Peaks and its owners.
We just returned last week from an absolutely fantastic stay at this property! We were a large group - a family reunion - ranging in age from 5 up to 80. Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely! The house was spotless and extremely well stocked. The layout was wonderful and worked really well for our group. The teens/young 20-something cousins took over the lower level with the bedrooms and hang-out area. The little kids and older adults were upstairs so there were no issues with noise late at night! The location was top notch. Just a few minute walk right into town... we walked in every night for ice cream! The house has plenty of bedrooms, a great open first floor for hanging out, and a wonderful finished lower level as well. Plus a bonus second "playroom" above the garage. Our whole group kept commenting on what a fabulous house this was. Communication with the host was great as well. We will definitely be returning. 5 stars!
We love Lake Placid and all the beauty and charm it offers all year around. We were frequent visitors for many years and decided to buy when this property came along. We knew this house was perfect for us and to share with guests.
This property has years of amazing rental history. People have loved their stay and many have returned year after year. The moment we saw this property, we fell in love with it. Every detail for a family's comfort and enjoyment was well thought out. We welcome you to book your vacation at the High Peaks Gathering Place and enjoy all that it has to offer.
