Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Franklin County

By some distance our favourite stay on the road trip, will absolutely be coming back if we can!

We had another great stay at Kate Mountain Farm. This is a beautiful, interesting, and original place to stay located on a working farm. Waking up in the unique upstairs loft bedroom with a view of the sunrise hitting the pine trees never gets old. It is an excellent alternative to staying in Lake Placid or Saranac Lake, with the beauty of the woods and hiking nearby, and easy driving access to all that the high peaks of the Adirondacks have to offer. The place was spotless as usual, with many goodies provided to make your stay a nicer experience. Thank you Aaron!

We had a great stay in Tupper Lake, which we used as our home base to hike in the Seward Range. Moody Sunset had everything we needed and more. The kids enjoyed lounging in the basement and playing all the games available. And we enjoyed the beautiful views, cozy fireplace, and well-stocked coffee bar. It was also great to have a Google speaker (something we use at home often). And the ADK stickers, welcome note, and sparkling water at check-in were a really nice touch. Would absolutely recommend Moody Sunset for anyone looking to explore the area. You won't be disappointed.

Gorgeous, comfy cabin. We had a great stay and Jennifer was an accommodating and communicative host. We’d stay again anytime.

I went for a winter trip with my family. The place is really well located. Extremely clean. Had all the amenities that I needed.

We have been coming to Lake Placid for 15 years and this was by far the best house we’ve ever stayed in. Jonathan has thought of everything. There was no amenity we thought was missing. The house was immaculate. The property is beautiful and spacious; we had no issue accommodating 7 adults. Next time we come back to Lake Placid we will definitely be reserving this house again.

The quiet location and pond were perfect to spend quality family time together. We really loved the little screened-in room. Make sure to bring your own drinking water and some mosquito repellant :)

The Pond House was a great place to stay for a trip to Saranac, Placid, or the High Peaks region. The location is right on Moody Pond and is private, yet just a short drive away from town. Kelli was proactive in her communication and checking in/out was seamless.

This place was great. I've stayed in many ABNBs and this place was very clean. It was a very short walk to downtown which was perfect to catch a music show or grab some beers at the brewery. The neighbors were nice too. parking was easy. It's a basement on 2 sides with a walkout to the street like the photos show so it's cool and darker which was great, bc I like to sleep in and I didn't get too hot at night. had a great stay. I would stay there again, and would recommend.

The place is in a great location!! You can walk to Main Street shops under 10 minutes. If you’re visiting Lake Placid, I would highly recommend this place!

This was the perfect snowy getaway we were looking for! The space was even larger then expected, clean, comfortable and very cozy. The views right on the lake were idyllic and we would definitely return here in the summer to take advantage of the water more! The hosts were welcoming and responsive while the space still felt private. Overall this was a peaceful weekend and we would recommend this spot for others to enjoy as well.

Devon's place was perfect for my visit to Saranac Lake as it is a short walk into town and provided a parking spot for my car w/ kayak on top. The apartment would be great for a couple or with a couple kiddos or others willing to share a walk-through bedroom into the queen bed bedroom. The queen bed was very comfortable and the bedroom and kitchen had AC which was nice to have. Kitchen and bathroom well-equipped. The linens were comfortable and towels good + plentiful. There are several flights of stairs and a clawfoot bathtub to step in/out of (w/ shower) so you should be comfortable managing those. Devon was super-communicative and I enjoyed meeting and chatting briefly w/ her and she was very generous in enabling me to stay an extra night. Would definitely look to stay here again should I be fortunate enough to return. The nearby paddling is phenomenal, the apartment is steps away from the rail trail, and Lake Placid is less than 20 minutes away by car.

My friends and I were in town for a CrossFit competition, and this Airbnb was perfect! It was a short walk to Main Street, Mirror Lake, and our competition venue, which made everything super convenient. The beds were comfortable, the furniture was great, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The host was also quick to respond and super helpful. Lake Placid was absolutely beautiful, and we would definitely stay here again! Thank you for a wonderful stay! :)

The location makes it easy to get out and about. We came to ski and snowshoe at The VIC, it was easy to get there. The apartment is just right for a home base. The water pressure in the shower is exceptional! Other reviews mentioned early morning noise, it's simply tiny feet walking about, and you have to really listen for them. I highly recommend Jon's Loj, and hopefully will be back again.

Such a clean and cozy place to enjoy the Adirondacks from. For the active type who like to hike, bike, ski, etc, the huge garage on the first level is perfect for storing gear securely and drying out wet or muddy clothes. The apartment itself is in a great location. It’s in a quiet neighborhood but only a 7 minute walk from Main St. From a well stocked kitchen with fresh creamer for coffee to extra towels, we had everything we needed. Will definitely stay again.

We loved our stay at Cary’s place! It was so peaceful in the woods yet so close to town and all of the activities. Cary was very helpful especially with the amount of snow we got! We would definitely return!

Gary's place had everything we needed for our ski vacation in Lake Placid! The location is very convenient and the view towards the mountain is beautiful. We truly enjoyed our stay and will happily return.

This was our 2nd time staying on one of MaryKaye’s properties. An excellent place to stay to due price, location & MaryKaye’s hospitality! We would definitely stay again!

Condo matches the pictures, but the view is far better than the pictures. Very comfortable space and open floor plan. Kitchen was well stocked, we cooked in a couple nights and had everything we needed to prep meals. Having three full bathrooms was great (we had 4 adults and two kids). Easy walk to the middle of town and all the restaurants/shops, but far enough away that it didn’t feel busy. Coffee on the balcony was an amazing way to start the day. We’ve been going to lake placid for 20+ years and have stayed many places - this is one of the best views we’ve had while still being right in the village. Highly recommended.

Our family really enjoyed our stay at Kathy's! The place was very clean and comfortable, and there was plenty of room for the 6 of us. The kitchen was well stocked, and all linens were fresh. The location was very convenient to all that Lake Placid has to offer but also removed just enough to have some quiet time away from the bustle of all the shops. We will definitely stay here again if we return to Lake Placid in the future. I highly recommend!

This spot was so much bigger than we expected! It had everything we needed and it was soooo cozy! The walk to Lisa G’s was so short - it was amazing. The basement was awesome since we had kids and they had their own area to hang and everything was so quiet - we couldn’t hear each other or them through the walls or on different floors. It was very comfy, large, and the location was perfect!

Great experience, loved cross country skiing so conveniently located out the door.

My husband and I had a lovely stay and the host RJ made sure all our needs were met. We would love to come back in the summer and see some more of Lake Placid from RJ’s little piece of heaven.

Fantastic stay! Less than a 5 min walk from main street, hosts were so kind and welcoming.
