Angler’s Adirondack Base Camp: Between the Ausable Branches

Experience a premier trout fishing pilgrimage at this perfectly positioned mountain retreat. Located in the heart of the Adirondacks, this property is a dream for any serious angler, situated directly between the two most storied fly-fishing runs in the Northeast.

The Location: A Tale of Two Branches
Location is everything when the hatch is on. At this base camp, you are strategically placed to pivot between the river's best sections:

The East Branch: Located literally across the street, providing effortless access to scenic runs and productive pocket water.

The West Branch: Reach the world-famous "no-kill" section and legendary pools in less than 9 minutes, allowing you to be the first one on the water for the morning rise.

Designed for the Fishing Enthusiast
Whether you are a member of the Adirondack Fishing Junkies, a dedicated Trout Fishing Lover, or a solo angler chasing wild brookies, this home serves as your ultimate tactical hub. It offers the space and convenience needed to manage gear and plan your approach for the day.

Gear Ready: Ample space to hang waders, dry out boots, and rig your rods for the next session.

The Vibe: After a long day of navigating boulder-strewn riffles, return to a quiet Adirondack retreat to sit by the fire pit and swap stories of the day's best flies--from the classic Ausable Wulff to modern nymphs--cook up your quarry on the gas grill, or engage in a game of poker, billiards or ping pong in the large game room upstairs.

The Outdoors: Relax by the fire pit and enjoy the mountain air, just stones' throw from the water’s edge.

Beyond the River
While the Au Sable branches are the main attraction, you are also perfectly positioned to explore "blue-line" mountain streams and high-elevation ponds. When the rods are finally put away, you are just a short drive from local fly shops and the Olympic charm of the surrounding peaks.

Pack your 5-weight, grab your best streamers, and settle in at a property that understands the obsession. The river is calling—and here, you’re already there.

ReLAXing Stay

Our stay in Upper Jay was just the right distance away from our daughter’s lacrosse tournament closer to the village and provided the calm and peaceful stay we were looking for. The property was exactly as described, extremely clean, spacious, close to many hiking, swimming and rock jumping experiences. It was perfect for all ages that stayed with us and we will definitely book again when we return!

Excellent stay near Whiteface Mountain

I stayed there March 2025 for spring break with my four kids to ski and board Whiteface Mountain.The house is great. There is a farm house behind it to quickly pick up necessities…organic milk, cheese. I couldn't say better things!

Great Whiteface ski house

This property was great for our ski trip to Whiteface. Less than 15 minutes to the mountain which was super convenient. The house was exactly as it looks in the pictures. Nicely updated and very clean. The hot tub and game room were perfect for some fun after skiing. I would definitely recommend!
