My family absolutely loves Lake Placid. And really, what’s not to love. This city is one of the very few to have held not one, but TWO Olympic winter games, and since the last one in 1980, this beautiful small town in New York’s Adirondack region has exploded as one of the most popular family vacation destinations in New York State. And with that popularity has come an amazing collection of family-friendly Lake Placid Airbnbs and beautiful Lake Placid VRBO properties to cater to that influx of visitors.
Through many visits to the city, I’ve been working on tracking down the best Lake Placid home rentals for families and small groups. Because I want to encourage more families to see just what makes this town so special.
Lake Placid, which is situated on the picturesque shores of Mirror Lake is a year-round destination. Summer in Lake Placid attracts crowds looking for some of the best hikes in New York State. The downtown core is lined with quaint shops, cafes, and small, local restaurants serving up mouthwatering food.
Winter in Lake Placid takes on a charm all of its own. You’ll find a booming “ski-town” atmosphere here with many patios hosting roaring fireplaces as families enjoy a meal after a day of skiing on nearby Whiteface Mountain or skating around the storied “Olympic Oval” in front of the Lake Placid Olympic Center.
The city is surrounded by natural beauty and Lake Placid becomes a popular home base for those exploring the Adirondack winter attractions.
To help you plan your vacation, we’ve researched the best cozy cabins, mountain homes with a view, and city-center condos to lay out which is the best Lake Placid rental for families and small groups. These Lake Placid rentals all offer kitchens, multiple bedrooms, family-friendly amenities, and a location that will make your visit to Lake Placid one that you will want to return to time and time again.
