About this property

Year-Round Outdoor Adventure! Romance, Whiteface Views, Hot Tub, Fireplace!

2 bedrooms, 1 bath, sleeps 5

The '46er' chalet is named for those who have summited the 46 highest peaks in the Adirondacks, a longstanding ADK Park challenge and athletic tradition.

This charming chalet is well-equipped and well-oriented in a quiet, private setting. Tranquil and forested, the property enjoys views of Esther and Whiteface Mountains, both 46ers at over 4000 ft.

At the 46er, you'll find the warmth and comfort of home, brimming with cozy-cabin style and amenities. The chalet has been completely remodeled with hardwood floors, skylights, granite countertops, updated kitchen appliances and a fireplace insert.

Nestled on a hillside, our classic A frame looks out on the Stephenson Range and Whiteface Mt., which is just two miles away. This storied Olympic mountain has been voted the Best Ski Center in the North East, and is typically open from mid-November into April. In the warmer months, Whiteface offers mountain biking, gondola rides and special events. Additional world-class mountain biking trails are accessed from nearby Hardy Road. Enjoy a lovely afternoon on nearby Lake Everest, canoeing and swimming at the town beach, or visiting the spectacular Wilmington Flume Falls. If you love fly-fishing, you can't find a better location. Less than a mile away is the West Branch of the Ausable River which is famous for its wily trout! Wilmington is, indeed, an outdoor enthusiast's mecca.

Other nearby ventures include taking a drive to the top of Whiteface Mt. on the Whiteface Veterans Memorial Highway, a visit to "Santa's Workshop" children's theme park, or a stop at the Adirondack Wildlife Refuge. All right out your front door in Wilmington!

Lake Placid Village, with all that it has to offer, is just ten beautiful miles away on one of the most picturesque roads in the Adirondacks. Here you can enjoy shopping, dining, arts and crafts, music, museums, The Olympic Center, golf, horse shows, movies, festivals, nightlife---all the hustle and bustle of this lively Olympic Village.

Back at the chalet, so much awaits...

First you'll encounter the large, wrap around deck which sports Adirondacks chairs, an outdoor dining area and new grill. Don't be surprised at the occasional chickadee that will eat from your hand! You may not get much further for awhile, caught up in the meditative mountain view.

The hot tub invites you for that relaxing dip after a day on the trails. In the evening, have a seat by the stone ringed campfire for s'mores and stories--a magical place to be!

While the chalet can sleep up to 5, please keep in mind that the living space is a total of 800 sq. ft. so guests may find it more comfortable with 4 or fewer folks. Also note, the roomy loft bedroom is accessed by a somewhat steep staircase, typical for A frame construction.

**note: we also require that our tenants complete a standard rental agreement with this booking**

Clean and Comfortable
This was our 4th stay at the 46er (3rd with the current owner). We have always found it clean, comfortable and well-stocked. Perfect, quiet location close to Whiteface and beautiful surroundings. Enjoyed the weekend as always. Thanks, Elizabeth and Andrew for being great hosts!

46er Chalet
Just got back from our stay at the 46er Chalet. Couldn’t ask for a better location - this is minutes from the foot of Whiteface ski area and fifteen minutes or so from the Village of Lake Placid. The cozy cabin had everything we needed! We would gladly stay here again.

We love the 46er. Just a great, classic A-frame. May seem tiny but packs a big punch with everything ypu and your family could need. We've stayed here before and will be back again. Thank you.

Great A-Frame!
We recently stayed at the "46er Chalet". What a beautiful little chalet. It was just perfect for my husband & myself, along with our little dog. I gave it the 3 C's, Clean, Comfortable & Cozy! Fully stocked with all you could possibly need. Only 2 miles from Whiteface Mountain. We truly loved the Hot Tub & the indoor fireplace. Wonderful is all I can think to say. We will definitely be back.

Perfect getaway
We really loved our stay. Amazing location, amazing views, and loved how cozy it was. We stayed to snowboard a few days on Whiteface and were surprised just *how* close we were to the mountain (5min drive). After a day on the mountain, the hot tub was the perfect treat to get back to. The home itself was comfortable to lounge in, play cards by the fireplace, and they had a few board games for us to choose from as well which we enjoyed. The house was neat and moderately clean (a few hairs in the shower) but nothing that would change our experience. Overall great stay and we look forward to returning!
