Summary: This was the second time we stayed at Parson Place and the home is beautiful, clean and spacious, providing all the amenities we needed. We used the kitchen and dining room for many family meals and there was no shortage of pots, pans, dinnerware, glasses and utensils. The home was in close proximity to everywhere we wanted to go in The Adirondacks, including Whiteface and Lake Placid. The hosts were right next door and were always available if we needed anything. Absolutely no complaints at all!

Summary: Let me start with saying Perfect on every aspect! We arrived as guests and left as friends.Definitely will stay there every time we are there.Thanks to Rex and Cay for being the best hosts, beautiful house that is kept so well, has everything that you need in the house and the kitchen. Their love to serve and good heart for kids. It became super memorable for kids as Rex even spent time with my son coaching him basketball 2 days. Something he never had to do. Thanks a lot Rex and Cay.

Summary: A beautiful property close to Whiteface Mountain and Lake Placid. Very spacious, has everything you can possibly need, the owners were absolutely wonderful to work with. We felt like we were staying at a very upscale property for a price lower than most hotels. In fact, it's about half as much the cost with the comfort of feeling like home!
Eric L. Feb 11, 2025 09:13:35 PM

Summary: The pictures truly don't do it justice, this property is beautiful! Between Santa's workshop, all the lake placid activities, and the house, the house was my kids' favorite part of the whole trip. It was clean, well stocked, and Rex and Cay were communicative and helpful with every step along the way. We loved ending our day with a fire in the wood burning fireplace and the kitchen is the perfect place to cook dinner and socialize. My kids loved the availability of games and space to run. They were also a big fan of the tub! 10 out of 10, would love to come back!!
Tina D. Dec 15, 2024 10:18:15 AM
Summary: We booked the rental for Thanksgiving week. Everything was absolutely perfect. The entire rental is top of the line and has everything you need to be comfortable. The beds were especially comfortable! The giant fireplace in the living room was where we spent every single night listening to Christmas music and having wine. We had a wonderful day and would absolutely recommend this to any of our friends visiting the area! You won’t be disappointed.

Summary: Parson Place was super roomy, super comfortable and super clean. We were a group of 4 (2 couples). The floorplan is actually really large, so we each had our own space when desired (one person could read at one end of the house without being disturbed by TV watching at the other end of the house.) But we all could hang out comfortably together too by the impressive fireplace. Location was perfect for us. Quiet and wooded but near enough to Lake Placid, hiking and an even we were attending at Mt VanHoevenburg.
