Great stay at the lake house

We had a great time at the lake house and skied Gore for 2 days. The house was exactly as billed and we had plenty of room to relax after a day of skiing. Can’t wait to go back.

Great stay!

Whit’s End is amazing! Our family enjoyed the beautiful home, the snowy lake, and its close proximity to Gore Mountain and Lake Placid!!! The house is spotless and well-equipped. We hope to return next year!

The cabin is beautiful and had all the comforts of home! Great location and the views of the lake are breathtaking! The use of the kayaks was a great addition to the weekend as well! Will definitely book again!!! Thank you!

Almost a 5

Very nicely appointed house with excellent location and views. Some room to improve though: 1) dock was not in the water which makes boating and swimming very cumbersome 2) Grass was knee high

Lovely home with magnificent views!

This house is well located, between Gore Mountain for skiing and Lake George. The house is very comfortable and beautifully decorated. The house is well equipped from the kitchen to books to read.

Fantastic Family Staycation

We spent. Time here while celebrat in our mother's 80th birthday. The home is absolutely beautiful, and suited our needs just perfectly. The beds are very comfortable, the linen's and all the other amenities were top-notch. We would definitely rent this home again.

Very nice house in an excellent location. Very clean and many nice amenities. My only complaints are 1) the grass in the back yard was knee high and therefor the yard was unusable and 2) the dock was disassembled and therefore made it very cumbersome to access the water for swimming, canoeing, kayaking. This is twice now we have stayed and dock not in water. Overall, the stay was 9 out of 10

Very clean and conveniently located

Our family of 7 (3 adults, 4 kids) thoroughly enjoyed our ski vacation staying at Whit's End! The house is right by the lake with a beautiful view all around. It's super clean and well stocked. The location is very convenient - about 25 min drive to Gore Mountain and 35 mins drive to Lake George. Overall a great experience!

Great Family Vacation

We spent Thanksgiving here and made great memories. The cabin was beautiful inside and out. The only issue was the oven would not keep temperature but luckily we weren’t doing a turkey and were able to make it work with the stove top. Other than that no complaints.

Just amazing !!

We stay mid week for a ski trip with friends and family- there were 8 of us ranging in ages 11-47. Everyone had a great time- house was perfect with plenty of room for kids and adults. Super cozy and clean. Plenty of games on hand to play. Only 15 mins to Gore which was even better. We had a great time and plan on going back next year!!

Ski weekend

We ski at Gore every year and decided to stay a little further away from the mtn. It’s a 20min drive and was well worth it. The house was spotless and had plenty of room. Loved the two loving area with the TV NOT in the main room so we could unplug. Easy to bring in stuff from the car as you park right by the front door. Just be careful with the steep slope of the driveway that goes to the lake for a boat launch. Need a good 4 wheel drive car to get up the driveway in the snow and ice if not plowed when you get there.

Very nice home.

Me and my friends enjoyed our stay at Whit's end. The view of the lake was wonderful and so quiet. It was clean, lots of games to play, wifi was working perfectly and all the appliances were all modern. Also lots of room but cozy at the same time. The fireplace was very nice. There were a couple of things that concerned me which was that the place didn't have blinds or drapes on most of the windows in common places. I didn't know it was done purposely, but we just didn't bother to ask since it was just a short trip. And the trash that had to be brought to the landfill. Besides that we had a wonderful stay.

Chill Out and Recharge

Whit’s End is the place to chill out and recharge overlooking Friends Lake. The lake was frozen and just majestic against the colorful background. We enjoyed hiking, the fire pit and a few friendly games of scrabble. We would rent again if there is availability. I give it a 5+.
