DESCRIPTION
The "46er", named for those that have mastered the highest
peaks in the Adirondacks, keeps with the tradition of 46ers.
She is well equipped, well oriented and surrounded by
beauty, leaving you never wanting to return home.
The chalet is completely remodeled with hard wood floors,
skylights, new kitchen and bathroom. Special esthetic
touches like the twig work rails are combined with
comfortable furnishings and the feel of a new house that we
invite you to make your home while visiting the Adirondacks.
The chalet features: a private master bedroom with a queen
size bed; a loft with twin beds and a large futon in the
living room for sleeping two adults or three children. All
new mattresses and bed linens.
The chalet is really special in that it is comfortable for a
family or a group of friends, yet still intimate for a
couple alone.
It's a great place just 'to be'- sitting up in the loft in
the comfy oversized chair, reading a good book while
listening to the gentle rain on the skylight or in the
living room snuggled on the couch by the fireplace warming
your soul. (At the 46er your firewood is cut, stacked and
ready to go).
Or perhaps you prefer sitting on the meditation pillow,
listening to transcendental music while receiving the
healing energy of this magical place. There is always a soft
throw or a blanket at hand to wrap yourself in and many
beautiful pillows to arrange for that 'just perfect fit'.
In the winter, you'll appreciate the hot water radiators for
warming-up your towels or drying wet mitts and socks. The
new boiler provides (truly!) unlimited hot water for
showers.
Unlike just another impersonal rental property, you'll find
the warmth and comfort of home with soft cushy towels, down
pillows and comforters. In case you forget, extra
toothbrushes, razors and special toiletries are there for
you. The kitchen is well equipped, making it easy to fix a
simple breakfast or a Thanksgiving Feast.
When your spirit moves you beyond the chalet, so much
awaits!
First you'll encounter the large, wrap around deck which
sports Adirondacks chairs and an outdoor dining area, and
sometimes chickadees that will eat from your hands. You may
not get much further for awhile. Many guests fall into the
hammock for a snooze or fire up the grill to cook the trout
they caught. In the evening, there is the stone ring
campfire for all the stories of the day.
Behind the chalet there are trails for walking, hiking, snow
shoeing and cross-country skiing. You may use our canoe to
explore one of the many waterways nearby. We also have two
bicycles available for you. Community tennis courts, ball
parks, Lake Everest Beach with live summer concerts are just
minutes away. If you wish, there are stables and miles of
woodland trails for riding. Lessons available for English,
Western and Polo.
You can climb the walls of Wilmington Notch, taking in the
most breathtaking aerial views of the valley below. For the
most exhilarating experience, You've Got To Go! for the dip
in the Copperas Pond after climbing.
The chalet is nestled on a hillside facing Whiteface and
Stephenson Ranges. Whiteface Olympic Mountain, which is two
miles away, offers the ultimate in winter sports. It was
voted the Best Ski Center in the North East! In the summer
time, you can enjoy the thrill of mountain biking on the
special trail system. In the fall, many enjoy the Gondola
for leaf peeping.
Less than a mile away there is the West Ausable River, world
famous for its trout fishing. In Wilmington, it shoots
rapidly through a deep, granite walled gorge, creating the
most dramatic and mesmerizing flume - our favorite spot.
The village of Wilmington is one of the best kept secrets in
the Adirondacks. It's off the main track, giving you the
pristine natural beauty of the Park while providing easy
access to amenities.
Within minutes of the chalet, we have dining experiences
ranging from hamburgers to gourmet fare. The village
provides a grocery store, tackle shop, and specialty shops
like The Candy Man Chocolate Factory. Just minutes from the
town center, you enter The North Pole with Santa's Workshop.
For those that want to experience the breathtaking views
from Whiteface Mountain but don't prefer to hike, there is
the beautiful, winding Memorial Highway leading to the
summit just west of the village.
Lake Placid Village with all that it has to offer is just
ten beautiful miles away on the most picturesque road of the
Adirondacks. Here you can enjoy shopping, dining, arts and
crafts, museums, The Olympic Center, golf, horse shows,
movies, festivals, nightlife, ... or "in short" - hustle and
bustle of this special, lively Olympic Village.
