Cottage holiday rentals in Owls Head

Cassandra and Jeremy’s place in Wilmington, NY is a true gem. The location is perfect—peaceful yet just minutes from charming shops, restaurants, and incredible hiking trails like Whiteface Mountain. Whether we were exploring nature or heading into downtown Lake Placid, everything was easy to reach. The home itself was impeccably clean—truly the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Every space felt fresh and thoughtfully cared for. The beds were incredibly comfortable with cozy bedding that made it hard to leave in the morning. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed—from quality cookware to spices and thoughtful extras. We didn’t want for a single thing during our stay. What really made this experience exceptional were the hosts. Cassandra and Jeremy were kind, welcoming, and lightning-fast with responses. Their hospitality made us feel right at home. We’d love to come back!

Eugene’s place was very clean and had everything we needed. He was very responsive, Super accommodating and helpful as well. My son and I had a great time on the water in the pedal boat and he loved the hot tub! (Which I will add was also very clean) If you choose to stay at this relaxing, quiet and enjoyable place, it is suggested to do groceries prior to coming into town as it is quite expensive at the towns grocery store and if you’d like to use the fire pit, bring your fire wood as it is not provided. Thank you Eugene! We enjoyed our stay and were sad to go :)

Adam was an incredible host. He was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay providing recommendations and quick answers to questions whenever needed. The home was immaculately clean when we arrived. This also had to be the most well equipped Airbnb I've ever stayed at. From the kitchen supplies, board games, vinyls, CDs, to the throughly detailed guidebook written by host, I was so beyond impressed! The most outstanding part of this stay is of course the location and the views this home provides. It provided the perfect private oasis for a stay to just unwind and unplug. I'd highly recommend this stay if your local for a tranquil, low-key retreat.

Beautiful old colonial home! River views, spacious, comfortable! Would not hesitate to book again !

Jonathan was the perfect host! Always glad to help answer our questions. Lovely place to rent, we will be back!

Great place to stay for the extended weekend. The place was very nice, with plenty of outside space to hangout. Easy and direct access to the water, dogs could swim no problem. Great host and would definitely come back.

Dennis was a very communicative host and thoughtful with completing works which were advised beforehand as to not interrupt our stay A great location and enjoyed the stay!

This cabin at Rainbow Lake was the perfect place for the quiet retreat my adult son and I needed. Cozy living room with new wood floors; small but perfectly functional and well-stocked kitchen; comfortable beds and pillows; updated bathroom and easy-to-use shower; hot water was very responsive; washing machine/dryer are much more modern than what I have at home (the manual was easy to find!) Our favorite spots were the dining table by the picture window overlooking the lake, and the Adirondack chairs on the dock at lakeside. The cabin is in a secluded cove, and the water was as smooth as glass most of the time. We even saw a loon several times, even though it was late October! There was just a little road noise during "going to/from work" times (can't call it "rush hour"); the rest of the time, just wonderful silence and the whisperings of the pine trees. We didn't use the kayaks, fire pit, or barbecue. Ten-minute drive into Saranac Lake for groceries, etc. We'd love to come back!

Simply breathtaking! Amazing view, clean and everything was there for a great stay, I would recommend this place 100%!

Very impressed with our stay here and would definitely come back! Pleasantly surprised how centrally located it was in Lake Placid - quick drive to local attractions, grocery store but could also walk 15-20 minutes to Main Street. Hosts provided very clear instructions, were very responsive. Everything was very clean and cozy too. Love the outdoor amenities too like the chairs, fire pit, grill and sauna.

Higley Flow was a perfect, relaxing venue for our family that was in the area to attend a college graduation. It is a beautiful house; it has a fabulous wraparound deck. John was very proactive in communicating, calling me a week in advance to introduce himself and explain the house. The house was very clean. We did not have a chance to enjoy the outdoor spaces due to the weather but they look great. Elderly guests or those with physical disabilities should be aware of the spiral staircase that is difficult to navigate. There is an alternate staircase outdoors, but was difficult to use during foul weather.

We had a great time, at the end of the being to sit ON the water and look out over the lake was just what we needed!

Perfect home base for a peaceful ADK getaway. Lots to do in close proximity to cottage. The place was great. Very quiet. Coffee on the deck overlooking the river was a great was to start every day, and a cold one by the fire was a great way to end each day. Would definitely stay again.

Quiet cabin on Lake Champlain away from everything - just what we wanted! (Though stores in Plattsburg aren't that far a drive.) Nice, 3-season deck and fire pit overlooking the lake and a fireplace inside (with plenty of firewood) were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the down time. Nice music system, comfortable furniture and beds. Clean and well-stocked kitchen for cooking, drinks, etc. We would definitely go back for a longer stay. Francois was very amenable and communicative.

This was a super cozy and perfect airbnb for our weekend visit in the ADK's! Would definitely stay again! The location was perfect.

Great, comfortable stay for a long weekend or extended stay. The house is so well appointed with all the toiletries or kitchen essentials one might need. It’s super close to the Main Street but be aware it is a decent hill. Very convenient. We had a toddler and there were plenty of amenities to support small kids which was amazing.

Great location. Clean and comfortable accommodation. Micky, the fishing guide and Holly who lived on the property were very helpful with answering questions on the cottage.

Thank you again Yesenia! The house is awesome and Yesenia is very kind! Highly recommend!

It is our second time there. It is perfect location to do our door winter activity. She has a new mattress that is very good. Would stay there again

Thanks Joanne for this beautiful « Home »❤️ Everything was far better than the description and the photos. We found all what we needed : the kitchen full equipped, comfortable living room, comfortable beds, the lake, the fire place 😊 Easy check in and out. I loved this place and will come back again 😊❤️

Excellent place to stay- short or long term. Friendly community and beautiful surroundings!

We really enjoyed our weekend here. Beautiful place inside and out. Would love to stay again sometime and definitely recommend!
