Description from owner

Description

If Whiteface Mountain and The Ausable River are your destination, Whiteface Brookside Cottage in New York State's beautiful Whiteface region of the Adirondacks is the vacation home for your family. Whiteface Brookside Cottage features three bedrooms with queen size beds, a fourth bedroom with a bunk bed, a comfortable futon in the family room, two full baths, a large kitchen and dining area with dishwasher, range and oversized fridge, and a spacious living/family room with a brick fireplace, TV, DVD player, and CD player. The bunk room is a pass through to one of the others, ideal for the first to rise in the morning, or young people who sleep through anything.

Explore the area by foot or bicycle for much of the year and snowshoes or cross-country skis in winter. A number of beautiful Adirondack trails can be found along the route to Lake Placid and beyond. The well known Flume Mountain Bike Trails can be accessed just down the street from the cottage.

If you need a day off from exploring all there is to see in the area, bird watch, grab lunch or compose the great American novel, while relaxing on the spacious front porch. Cozy up to a warm and crackling fire, reviewing the day's adventures on the slopes. The kids will enjoy an evening around the campfire, while they roast marshmallows, and listen to the wildlife sounds of an Adirondack evening.

Don't feel like driving or preparing the evening meal yourself? Walk down the hill to the Wilderness Inn, a great local restaurant.

Brookside Cottage will rent only from Saturday to Saturday from mid July through August, while there is a two night minimum stay the rest of the year.

Brookside Cottage has a local caretaker, who provides plowing service in the winter, and keeps the yard mowed and tidy in the warmer months.
