One Block from Lake Placid Main Street, Public Beach, venues and eateries

Quiet retreat in the heart of the village combines the conveniences of Main Street's shops and restaurants only a block away with the privacy of a quiet neighborhood. Located on two one-way streets, the Silver Bear Lodge offers all of the amenities of a home with room for the extended family.

This home boasts five bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a well-equipped kitchen that was re-modeled in 2019 and outfitted with all new appliances, along with a fully remodeled and upgraded master bath in 2023. The large dining room and two living spaces with TV, Smart TV with spectrum cable access through the provided Roku, a variety of board games and cards available in the dining room closet, a sectional couch, and a gas stove allow ample gathering and private space for up to 12 people. The Dining Room seats 12 at a beautifully locally sourced and crafted, live-edge wood dining room table and the all-season porch has a sitting area with a TV, and Ping Pong/Pool Table. The patio with enough tables and chairs for all, along with the large partially fenced yard provides plenty of outdoor space to relax, grill, and enjoy the seasonal views of the mountains and lakes.

In the winter months, you can enjoy skiing close by at Whiteface, ice skating on the outdoor Olympic Oval, or even on the indoor rink where the famous 1980 USA Hockey team took the Gold medal.

In the spring, summer, and fall our beautiful Adirondack Mountains offer trails for all levels of hiking. Summers are great for water skiing with the kids on Lake Placid or just relaxing on Mirror Lake's wonderful beach.

We offer a beautiful dining room for meals with the family and a spacious living room for everyone to sit and talk about their day.

Silver Bear Lodge with 5 bedrooms with a king, queen bed, queen bed and twin, two double beds, three twins, and the 3.5 baths make family morning & evening schedules a breeze!

With the location, conveniences, and accommodations of this house, you will have a vacation that your family or group will want to experience again and again. The large secluded and fenced-in backyard is ideal for outdoor activities, sunbathing, or family sports, and the children’s park only 1 block away beckons visitors with swings, a slide, and a basketball court. Enjoy your next getaway at this lovely and welcoming vacation rental that sits on a quiet street only a 2-minute walk away from the village center with shopping and restaurants!

Excellent Location - Can't beat it
We stayed at the Hill on the house for a week. The house was exactly as advertised. You can't beat the location and the house can easily accommodate large groups. Everything was in working order and communication was easy. One note - and it's clear in the description and listing - this is a pet friendly house - it's clear that pets do stay in the house so anyone with pet allergies should be aware of that. There is no doubt we would stay again and really enjoyed our time there.

Wonderful place. The ping pong table/pool table was great… especially because we had 3 days of rain. The location was great… however that hill is quite large… so walking up each time you went into town was tiring (especially carrying a little one). Air conditioning in the bedrooms would have made sleeping more comfortable. It is cool at night. (August) so the fans were great. But the birds and street can be noisy in the am.
