There's a campfire, picnic table and propane barbecue in the yard, providing a great place for the family to gather in the evening, to review the days activities, have a family sing-along, or just to listen to the sounds of the Adirondack night, while counting the stars in the clear Adirondack skies, and inhaling the fragrance of the tall white pines which enclose the yard, or using the outdoor barrel sauna.

Summary: This house is bigger than we expected and slept 8 of us very comfortably with plenty of room to spare. It had everything we needed and was well stocked with necessities (sheets, towels, tp, kitchen items, etc.) It was less than ten minutes to get to Whiteface Mountain, High Falls Gorge, the Flume Trails (our favorite place!) and the Highway up Whiteface Mountain. Check-in was flawless and we were all very comfortable here. I highly recommend this house, especially if you have a group of 8 or 10.
