Amazingly spacious house, close to Whiteface

This house was amazing for our large group of 19- everyone had plenty of place with their own bathroom, the kitchen had 2 of everything, and the kids got to have fun with giant sleepovers in the bunk beds. Close to whiteface but a little far from LP which made the desire to go out to dinner after a long day of skiing tough. Host was great and very communicative. Highly recommend for a ski trip with a large group!

Beautiful Cabin for a Great Weekend

Me and my friends had a wonderful time at Gene’s property. The place is HUGE and immaculately kept. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and plenty of areas (dining room table, porch table, fire pit, fire table, etc.) for everyone to gather and spend time together. Super drivable to Lake Placid and some high peaks. Sauna and hot tubs were also highlights! Gene was super responsive; I got a response to my texts within minutes! Would definitely stay again!

Grand Meadows is a beautiful cabin located no more than 25 minutes from all of the sites Lake Placid has to offer. We stayed here for a hockey tournament at the Olympic Center. Gene and Gala are wonderful hosts, check in was simple, the rentals are loaded with amenities, the scenery is beautiful! The kids loved the playrooms and the hot tubs!

Cozy winter wedding

We recently celebrated our cozy winter wedding at Grand Peaks Lodge, and it was better than we could have imagined. Gene was a fantastic host with a perfect collection of vendor recommendations to pull off a memorable wedding. The Lodge is equipped with everything you could possibly need and more. We hosted 38 people with about 16 staying at the lodge… we could’ve easily fit more though! All of the rooms were comfortable and fully equipped, and the hot tubs were a welcomed way to wind down in the evening. Everyone is still talking about how much they enjoyed both the wedding and the lodging with many discussing future plans for a family reunion here. If you want quality time with friends and family, this is the place!!

This was our third year staying with High Peaks Rentals, and our second year at Grand Peaks Lodge. There is a total of 17 of us, ranging from 4-75. Besides this place being absolutely gorgeous, it has everything you would need for an enjoyable, relaxing vacation… for any age! There was more than enough room, and the double kitchen was so handy for cooking big meals! Gene was great to work with from start to finish- extremely responsive and willing to work with our families needs. Can’t say enough great things about this property! We just booked our 2025 trip!

Look no further...this is perfection!

We recently stayed at Grand Peaks Lodge for our 2nd time with 23 family members last year and 21 this year, who range in age from 3-81. No details were overlooked here, the house is clean and stocked with plenty of towels, blankets, pillows, and kitchen essentials! I even found 3 crockpots here! Having 2 of everything in the kitchen really helped with mealtime! There is plenty of room to spread out, plenty for the kids to do in the game room. The hot tubs and fire pit were enjoyed by all! About a 20-25 minute ride to Lake Placid, plenty of outdoor activities in the area. We had such a great stay that we booked our 3rd stay for next year!

Family Reunion

We rented both Grand Peaks and Grand Jay this week. Grand Peaks was the perfect hub for our multigenerational family reunion - 31 of us, ages 2-77. The properties were a quick walk down the road from each other and made gathering so easy. Grand Peaks had more than enough room for us to hang out in, and the huge dining area allowed us to all enjoy many dinners together. The kids all enjoyed the game room, playing ping pong, basketball, foosball and video games. The hot tubs and sauna were also a hit. Lots of things to do in the area, with a quick drive to Lake Placid. Gene was very responsive to any and all questions and was very accommodating. We look forward to returning in the future!

Girl’s Weekend

This house was an excellent choice for our group of 24 women. We enjoyed using this house as a home base for all of the activities we did around Lake Placid. It is a 20 minute drive into town, hiking and the amazing High Falls Gorge. The hot tubs and sauna were perfect after a long day of shopping or hiking. The long dining room table allowed us to all sit together during meals and games. Two of us utilized the EV charger in the garage (Tesla and Plug-in Audi). That was an added bonus to our trip. Gene was an excellent host - always quick to respond to inquiries. We have already booked our 3rd year at this awesome house

Wedding of our dreams

We stayed at Gene’s place with our friends and family for our wedding. We set up a tent in the backyard and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Gene recommended our caterer, Jonathan, who set up in the garage and kitchen and serviced our wedding phenomenally. We put up the bridal party in the house for 4 nights and everyone raved about how much fun they had. The house was spotless. The amenities were awesome, we never got bored and never even ended up touching the lawn games or other things we had brought to do because the house was full of fun things- Rock Band, the sauna, hot tubs, multiple fireplaces, ping pong table and other games. The kitchen and huge dining room table were the perfect space for our rehearsal dinner and brunch after the wedding. We booked two of Gene’s other properties right near by and our families stayed in those. They all haven’t stopped talking about what a great weekend it was. Highly recommend and if you’re thinking about a wedding- do it, you will not regret it!!

The house was so versatile and well appointed! We had a large group and found the property to be beautiful and a great place to spend time. Even with rainy weather we were not at a loss for things to do. The kitchen was fantastic for a group. Everything was in fantastic shape and clean! The ramp was fantastic for those that were less mobile. The property was secluded enough that it felt private!
