Note:;During the weekend of the Iron Man Race, July 25 thru 27th we have a three day minimum stay...
I am located on an intersection in Au Sable Forks, NY. My large home is located just off Rt 9n, the main road to Whiteface Mountain (15 miles) and Lake Placid (22 miles) Both destinations are reached by a very scenic drive encumbered by just one stop sign.
The two second floor bedrooms, strictly non-smoking, are all newly appointed.

The space
.Note:;During the weekend of the Iron Man Race, July 25 thru 27th we have a three day minimum stay......Friday and Saturday are two day minimums.....you are shorting yourself if you stay less than two days...there is just so much to see....
I am located on an intersection in Au Sable Forks, NY. My large home is located just off Rt 9n, the main road to Whiteface Mountain (15 miles) and Lake Placid (22 miles) Both destinations are reached by a very scenic drive encumbered by just one stop sign.
The two second floor bedrooms, strictly non-smoking, are all newly appointed. I now only book one party at a time so if your group needs more beds message me here to work that out...... This listing is for a bed room with a queen size bed to sleep one or two people. You will share a first floor shower and bathroom. The second floor bathroom has a large claw foot tub, colored glass window and the original wainscoting.
Two branches of the Au Sable River meet just across the street and is one of the finest fly fishing spots on the East Coast. Park your car once and fish for days days as the river is stocked yearly.
I also have a large out building behind the house that was once the towns blacksmith shop and general store. The Blacksmith shop can park 4 or 5 full size motorcycles inside. Motorcycling in the High Peaks is unforgettable. This is also a paradise for bicycling. The Lake Placid Iron Man bike course runs just three blocks from my house making this an ideal spot for training. The shop can store a team load of bikes and has most tools you might need, including air compressors and a Colortune Carb Sync. Should it rain you can enjoy the full gym over the general store.
Once ski season arrives you could stay here and pay for your lift ticket at Whiteface for less than the least expensive room locally available.
Enjoy free wireless internet.
My Main street location is a short walk to a bank, Grand Union market, the newly refurbished Hollywood Movie, churches, drug store, Stewards Shop (great ice cream), the wonderful Mad River Pizza and the best roadhouse in the North Country The 20 Main where great live music can erupt at anytime.
Save your money for biking, fishing, hiking and skiing.
Book a room now and pay the same rate for the next three years.

Neighborhood highlights

My in town home is so convenient to shopping, banking, great food and now live music two or more nights a week at both Mad River Pizza and the 20 Main Tavern. Mad River hands down has the best food and prices in the Adirondacks. Of course you can find very pretty places to stay here on AirBnB but everyone else is 10-20 miles to the nearest stores and restaurants. take a minute to read my reviews then I'll see you soon, John
