Family Ski Trip
We had a wonderful time staying at Arrow Head Lodge! We are a big group, 10 adults and 7 children but the location of this house and the space it offered made it a truly wonderful experience. We enjoyed the short car ride to the mountain for skiing as well as the close proximity to town. We would definitely stay here again!

The house was in a great location only being 1 mile from town. We had four families and plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed the hot tub especially when it was lightly snowing out. Very relaxing!! Ann and Mea always do a fabulous job.

Loved our Stay!
We had our second year here for Memorial Day weekend, and loved every moment! Ann was the perfect host and was there to check us in and answer any questions. The house is huge and lovely and clean, and had everything we needed to manage a large family of 16. Would highly recommend! Also super close to the main drag of town, even walkable!

Perfect for large family celebrations
Large cozy home with many rooms and large family areas. Easy to get to any venues by car in Lake Placid or Seneca Lake. We had meals prepared from nearby restaurants. Played our own Olympic games and used fire pit for samores. Walked around mirror lake, and and played at the beach. Main street is great for shopping.

Great Family Reunion
There were 18 of us (16 adults and 2 children). The house was perfect for us, even with the rainy weather. We did enjoy some hiking, a trip to the Wild Center and an especially wonderful time at the Carousel in Saranac Lake. Everyone had plenty of space and we especially enjoyed all being together on the main floor for meals and activities.

Birthday celebration
My family, friends and I had an amazing long weekend in Lake Placid at Arrowhead Lodge.
The location was perfect and convenient to everything around the Lake Placid area. Ann was a wonderful hostess and did a great job acclimated the group to our new surroundings. She was available for all my calls and questions.
A few negatives though, I was only told about the 6 car limit 8 days prior to our trip when I called to inquire about check in. This could have been problematic since we had 9 couples coming from all parts of the state but we managed to squeeze together and car pool. The dining room could not accommodate 18 for dining. Needed to move chairs from downstairs and garage and table super cramped and uncomfortable. The picture made it look bigger than what it was.
The cleaning company needs to be spoken to as they are not good. Food under the coffee table in the basement and most of the kitchen supplies needed to be washed before we could use them. Sink in the kitchen would not drain may have something to do with the nonfunctional disposal. Had to use the bathroom plunger to get the water down. Coffee pot also broken and the kitchen should probably have 2 if count is up to 20 people.
Did not receive instructions about snow removal process which required a call to Ann and we could have used a second shovel to get out of the driveway.
Overall the house adequately met our needs, very comfortable and spacious.

Arrrowhead Excellence
We recently stayed at Arrowhead for a short time with family but we so wish it could have been longer. The property is amazing. Upon arrival we were given the door code by Ann the property manager who I must say was an absolute pleasure to work with. We entered the home seeing beautiful autumn decorations a very homey touch! The home was extremely clean, bright and open. The beds were comfortable the rooms had plenty of space. We can’t say enough about the property. I only hope we have the chance to go back soon.

We’ve stayed here multiple times. It’s a great house - nice layout and location. Ann & team are easy to work with and proactively communicate. Some of our favorite ADK weekends have been at Arrowhead Lodge.

Wedding Weekend
My husband and I decided we wanted our whole bridal party to stay in a big Adirondack house in Lake Placid and it was the best decision we made for our wedding weekend! It was able to house everyone, (14 of us) and we had a great time! So close to downtown and so many amenities like the hot tub, pool table, ping-pong table, 2 large living room areas and the perfect kitchen it was absolutely gorgeous!!! We are already planning another trip with our family!! Highly recommend!!

Ann was a great host and maintains a beautiful house that accommodated our large family.
Only issue - amount of allowed parking by Lake Placid Association. Max of 6 vehicles on site. Not host fault

Next Level stay in Lake Placid
As a professional mountain bike race team we are a group of 12. Each one of us needs his own bed and that's where this large home ticked all the boxes. Beautiful built with a large kitchen and dinner table it's exactly what we are looking for traveling the world. Apart of the excellent house we really appreciated the friendly communication with our host! All in all NEXTLEVEL
