OLYMPIC HOUSE ON MAIN STREET VILLAGE AND MIRROR LAKE wHOTTUB 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.

From the grand front porch, you and your family will have a front row seat to the village of Lake Placid, where you can watch parades, marathons, town events etc. Of course, beautiful Mirror Lake and the ADK High Peak Mountains are directly in front of you for your viewing pleasure.

The 6 bedrooms include 2 kings, 2 queens, 1 full, with 2 twin bunk beds(1 with a full bottom bunk) All of the bedding is a high thread count cotton and all beds have cozy pillow-tops, so you have luxurious and comfortable sleeping accommodations. There are deep closets, extra blankets and pillows in every bedroom. There are fans and air conditioners in every bedroom as well.

The bathrooms are all well equipped with soft plush towels and new showers. For your convenience, there are hair dryers in all of the bathrooms. The original pedestal sinks and faucets have been left for historic appeal, and an original claw foot tub with adapted shower . Brand new toilets and showers have been installed along with tiled floors.

There is a large BBQ grill on the front porch and plenty of outdoor chairs and tables to enjoy warm weather outdoor dinners. Also, there is a one car garage and a large driveway that supplies ample parking for up to 4 vehicles for use during your stay - especially nice during the winter months. During the summer we have 3 bike racks (will hold 4 bikes each) for those cycling enthusiasts.

Pre Christmas vacation
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.

Great Spot In Lake Placid NY
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.

Another perfect weekend with friends
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!

Stunning Property, Wonderful Property Manager
We rented this home for our wedding party to have a get away weekend. The home was beyond our expectations and made the most beautiful backdrop for our murder mystery dinner party. We had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed getting to know the owner of the property. I couldn’t say enough great things about the experience.

Central Lake Placid Location
Walking distance to all stores and beach on Mirror Lake. Summer was our experience and it worked fine, but some rooms needed air conditioning. Many pictures here appear to be in much newer condition than it actually is now. Owner tries to be very helpful. Would be great for skiing holidays—colder weather.

Absolutely Fantastic!
I booked this house last January for this 2022 Christmas holiday, and it was for our family; 11 adults and 3 kids. We had an amazing time! The house is big, charming, comfortable, clean, and very beautiful!!! We loved the unique layout, and how each room had such special history and character. The hot tub was a welcomed reprieve after skiing Whiteface! Additionally, the owners were friendly, welcoming, and so helpful with all the questions we had leading up to the trip. I highly recommend booking this house, and I hope to stay again with my family! You will love it! And the location simply cannot be beat!

Overall Good
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.

Great Location, Not that Clean
The location of the house is great...right off main street, but hidden enough to be private. We spent lots of time sitting on the great porch. The house also offered plenty of room for our group. Unfortunately, the house was not that clean (band-aid in shower, crumbs on dining room table, dirty floor, bag with empty coffee cup left in kitchen). Not the end of the world, but not the best either.

Olympic House
Ann, the owner was wonderful to work with! The only negative is that some of the details on VRBO are incorrect. It lists 16 as max occupancy when it is really 14(14 is listed on the contract). We booked this with the idea that 16 was the max. Fortunately we had two guests that couldn’t make it or it would have been a big issue.

Another amazing LP stay!
This is the second time we have stayed in one of Ann's homes, and once again, it did not disappoint. The location absolutely cannot be beat! We visited President's Day weekend, when downtown parking is at its worst. The ability to walk everywhere in town was priceless. Watching the pedestrians walk down Main St., with snow falling and Mirror Lake in the distance - all while sitting in the hot tub - was magical. The house is well-stocked and well cared for. We had 9 adults and 5 children (ages 3-8) and were very comfortable. On top of the house being amazing, Ann is a pleasure to rent from. Highly recommend!

Wedding weekend
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).
