About this property

Little Peak Chalet by Whiteface Mountain & Ausable River

Nestled on the wooded hillside of Juniper Hill in Wilmington, your ultimate nature experience awaits, be it skiing, fishing, hiking, biking, kayaking or roasting smores over a camp fire.

Just minutes from Whiteface Mountain with the largest vertical drop in the northeast. Get to the summit on The 'Cloudsplitter Gondola' year round, or, take the breathtaking 8 mile drive up the Memorial Highway..... it really will take your breath away! On the way you can stop to visit with Santa & his reindeer at The North Pole, Home of Santa's Workshop.

Within a mile is the west branch of the AuSable River and fabulous trout fishing, kayaking & canoeing. Miles of hiking, biking, and cross country ski trails are all right at hand. Take a plunge off the rocks at the Flume, or pack a picnic lunch and hike back to a secluded swimming area. Lake Placid and the entire Olympic complex are just 10 minutes away through the beautiful Wilmington Notch.

Little Peak will sleep four to six with a queen size bed in the master bedroom, comfy loft accessed via a spiral staircase with another queen bed, and a queen size sleeper sofa in the main living room. Little Peak Chalet also sports a dining room for six, full bath, completely equipped kitchen and deck peeking through the pines to Whiteface Mountain. Relax on your deck or roast hotdogs over your roaring bonfire.

Whether it's a trek in the High Peaks or just a weekend to kick back and enjoy the view, you'll find Little Peak Chalet convenient, comfortable, affordable and the perfect location for your stay in the Wilmington/Whiteface/Lake Placid region.

Great Place! Great Location!

Cute A-frame located with easy access to Whiteface, Ausable River and Lake Placid. A little more distance between neighbors and it would be absolutely perfect.

Super cute and great location

We really enjoyed our stay at the Little Peak Chalet. The location is convenient to many sights and activities in the area. Quiet neighborhood and the view is impressive. The chalet was clean and comfortable and Abby was great with communication although we didn’t need anything during our stay. We hope to return!

Great Stay at Little Peak Chalet

We had a fabulous week at the Little Peak Chalet. The home was a great basecamp for trips throughout the Adirondacks -- clean, comfortable, well located. We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings. Abby is a great communicator and is super responsive.

Cozy Chalet in a Great Location

Little Peak Chalet was perfect for our brief stay in the area. It’s close to everything we wanted - hiking, fishing, Whiteface, High Falls Gorge - and a great base for exploring Lake Placid, Saranac Lake and other areas. The three of us - two adults and our four year old - had plenty of room to relax and prepare meals. We know the new owners will be making some additional upgrades to the property as well, making it even better.

Cozy -tucked away from it all yet close to so much fun!

If you long for privacy yet want to be able to jump into the fun at Lake Placid-this is the perfect place to stay. This home is nestled back on a dead end road with only an approx. 15 minute drive to Lake Placid. Abby is an excellent host with great communication. I wasn’t At the cabin much due to staying for the Ironman triathlon. Everything I needed to make something to eat was there and the bed was comfortable. Just a heads up watch your shins on the bed frame- it hurts ;) Certainly not Abby’s fault I was clumsy.. just sharing to help save you the pain. The couch is also a hideabed so, even though it’s not big on square footage -Abby has maximized the space to accommodate more guests. It was just me this stay but I’d guess 6 guests could stay here comfortably. Book with confidence- Abby truly is a super host!

Wonderful lofty cottage

We really enjoy returning over the years, to visit the places we shared the most beautiful memories with family and friends. This is one of those places. And the kids, ohhh… they do love their loft. :-)

Rustic and cozy

Loved this little chalet nestled in the woods - was super quite and quaint. We were looking for a place to escape, relax, sit on the porch and soak up nature and the Little Peak Chalet delivered. Amy was very responsive when we needed her (even gave us an earlier check-in) and reached out to be sure we had all we wanted - can't ask for better! I would highly recommend and return if I'm in the area again.

Terrific little place

This place was adorable....very clean...rustic but updated enough and had all the comforts you need for a winter getaway. Very close to Whiteface Mountain and a short drive to Lake Placid. The only negative was the heating system - pretty loud when it cycles on. If you are noise sensitive it might drive you crazy.

Simple, clean, and cozy

Very comfy, albeit small, chalet. I would limit it to no more than 4 adults. Beautiful, quiet neighborhood, a 6-minute drive to Whiteface. Wood-burning stove (actually gas powered, no need for wood) was wonderful to add ambiance after a day of skiing. Abby was amazingly responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay again. It’s up a hill, and a short stretch of the driveway is a little steep so I wouldn’t do it without all wheel drive in the winter.
