Grand Peaks Lodge is a winner of the 2023 National Association of Home Builders  Awards for Excellence in the category of log home design. The home has been featured in various log home magazines and articles!

Grand Peaks Lodge is a recently built (June 2022) Ultimate Adirondacks Luxury 6200 Sq Foot Real Log Home with gorgeous mountain views from its 2000 Sq Foot wrap around deck, 8 bedrooms, 7 Full and 2 Half baths, 2 Hot Tubs , 10 Person Sauna, full house automatic backup generators, and high-speed fiber internet. It also features an oversized 3 car garage, which offers an EV charger and an RV hookup. Grand Peaks Lodge is just 7 minutes away from Whiteface Mountain and less than 20 minutes to downtown Lake Placid. This home can comfortably host 24 and can sleep as many as 38 overnight guests!  This home was designed to create lasting memories for large multi-generational families,  couples-only trips, business retreats, health group escapes, college reunions, romantic get-aways, and of course for our furry family members (pets)!

Welcome to High Peaks Rentals! We are proud to offer multiple 4-to-8 bedroom luxury log homes in the Whiteface and Lake Placid area, with over 1000+ 5 star reviews. Our properties can host large group multi-family get togethers and and of course quiet "get away from it all" retreats. You can find all our homes by searching online for "HighPeaksRentals" (com)

On the inside - 

Main Floor - Stunning full length real logs and hand-crafted staircase highlight the living, kitchen and dining room areas. In the living room, your eyes will gravitate to massive structure of logs hugging the roof peaks and valleys and perfectly blending with the 28' tall oversized real wood-burning fireplace wrapped with gorgeous local Adirondack granite. While relaxing in the comfy leather furniture, you will be enjoying gorgeous mountain views through the abundance of glass and picture windows or catch a movie on the 65" TV with SONOS surround sound hanging over the fireplace. Next to the living room area, appointed by a log archway, is the extra long dining room featuring a reception style table that can comfortably sit 24 people. The dining room has 10' ceilings appointed by deco beams and large multi-pane windows that soak in the light and provide mountain views. From the dining room, you will enter the kitchen area appointed by a log arch and 10' ceilings with deco beams. The custom designed "double" kitchen features locally crafted maple cabinetry and provides tons of room for 2 chefs with 2 stoves, 2 deep farmhouse sinks, 2 dishwashers, 2 full-size refrigerators, a wine cooler and a large 8' island for food prep and seating for 4.  This kitchen island is centrally located and is large enough for pre-dinner gathering for drinks and appetizers. Finally, the kitchen / dining room layout is complimented with a large 4-burner Weber BBQ grill, which can be accessed through the double french Andersen door leading to the covered portion of the wraparound deck. There are also 2 separate powder rooms located near the living / dining room area. 
There are 2 Master Suites on the main floor nicknamed after Whiteface mountain ski runs as "Cloudspin Run" and "Little Whiteface". Because most of materials were sourced locally and hand crafted by local handymen, this theme is followed through the house. The suites are located on opposite sides of the house and thus provide complete privacy. Both offer King beds, 55" TVs, and en-suite bathrooms featuring whirlpool jet tubs for 2, large walk-in showers, heated towel racks, double vanity sinks and separate toilets rooms with build-in bidets. 

Finally, the main floor has in-floor heating and each space has individual heating and cooling smart thermostats.
Top Floor - Making your way via custom designed hand-crafted log staircase, you will arrive on the top floor, with a large landing area bringing you closer to the massive ceiling logs and overlooking the living room space. Right side of the landing features the guest computer station, while the left side offers a comfortable arm chair to enjoy the views. There are 3 bedrooms on this floor, each with individual heating and cooling smart thermostats - 

"Summit Quad" suite features a King bed and a Day bed with a pullout. The bedroom also offers an en-suite private full bath with a walk-in shower, heated towel rack, vanity and toilet.
"Lookout Mountain" features a Queen bed and a Day bed with a pullout.
"Summit Express" features a King bed and a Day bed with a pullout.
There is also a shared bath with an extra large soaker tub, heated towel rack, vanity and toilet - shared by the above 2 bedrooms.
Lower Floor -  Making your way downstairs, you will enter the large rec room offering activities for both kids and adults, such as ping pong, foosball, and a pop-a-shot basketball arcade style game. There is also a 65" TV with a SONOS sound bar in this room and additional full size fridge with an ice-maker. Around the corner, you will find the media room with 3 large couches centrally located next to the 75" TV with a SONOS sound bar and offering Playstation 4 with tons of games for all ages including Guitar Hero and Rock Band. There is also a standalone Karaoke machine to show off your vocal cords skills.
There are 3 bedrooms on this floor, each with individual heating and cooling smart thermostats - 
"Lower Wilderness" features a King bed with a semi-private en-suite bath with a walk-in shower, heated towel rack, vanity and toilet. This bedroom also offers a walkout through double french Andersen door and mountain views.
"Fox Run" features 2 large bunks, each configured as Twin as top bunk, Full as Main Bunk, and a Full pullout trundle bed. This bedroom has a semi-private en-suite bath with a walk-in shower, vanity and toilet. This bedroom also offers a walkout through double french Andersen door and mountain views.
"Wolf Run" is a mirror of Fox Run, and also features 2 large bunks, each configured as Twin as top bunk, Full as Main Bunk, and a Full pullout trundle bed. This bedroom has a designated semi-private bath with a walk-in shower, vanity and toilet. This bedroom also offers a walkout through double french Andersen door and mountain views.
Finally, on this floor you will also find the large 8 person Finnish Sauna, as well as the walkout to the 2 large 8-person hot tubs located under the deck, accented by LED mood lights.

Other - There is a total of 4 laundry washers and 4 dryers in the house - 1 on top floor, 1 on main floor, and 2 on the lower floor. The house features town-supplied "unlimited" water with 2 on-demand hot water heaters providing plenty of hot water and pressure to everyone! 

On the outside -
With enough room for more than 10 cars and an oversized 3 car garage (coming September 2022), there is plenty of parking for everyone. The front entrance features a covered porch supported my massive logs. To the right, the porch connects with the 2000 sq foot deck with gorgeous mountain views.  To the left, the front porch connects with the garage access landing area via an ADA-accessible ramp, allowing wheelchair or stroller access to the main floor.  
The deck offers a large dining room table with 2 folding LED lit umbrellas and seating for 18. In the center of the deck, you will find patio furniture with a gas fire-pit and 2 vertical tube gas burners to enjoy a bit of warmth and ambiance on those cool evenings. The deck also offers a hammock and cushions for all furniture.
The deck also offers 2 side staircases to walk down the large yard area with a lush lawn which is wrapped by a 2-rail split fence and arborvitae cedar trees behind it. There is also a large fire-pit area with benches and ADK chairs. The lawn is large enough to enjoy various games and host large gatherings.

Amazingly spacious house, close to Whiteface
This house was amazing for our large group of 19- everyone had plenty of place with their own bathroom, the kitchen had 2 of everything, and the kids got to have fun with giant sleepovers in the bunk beds. Close to whiteface but a little far from LP which made the desire to go out to dinner after a long day of skiing tough. Host was great and very communicative. Highly recommend for a ski trip with a large group!

Bisons Hockey Trip
Grand Meadows is a beautiful cabin located no more than 25 minutes from all of the sites Lake Placid has to offer. We stayed here for a hockey tournament at the Olympic Center. Gene and Gala are wonderful hosts, check in was simple, the rentals are loaded with amenities, the scenery is beautiful! The kids loved the playrooms and the hot tubs! They checked in with us regularly to make sure our stay was going well. I can not recommend staying here enough. We will be back! Thank you from the Buffalo Bisons!!

Girl’s Weekend
This house was an excellent choice for our group of 24 women. We enjoyed using this house as a home base for all of the activities we did around Lake Placid. It is a 20 minute drive into town, hiking and the amazing High Falls Gorge. The hot tubs and sauna were perfect after a long day of shopping or hiking. The long dining room table allowed us to all sit together during meals and games. Two of us utilized the EV charger in the garage (Tesla and Plug-in Audi). That was an added bonus to our trip. Gene was an excellent host - always quick to respond to inquiries. We have already booked our 3rd year at this awesome house

Wedding of our dreams
We stayed at Gene’s place with our friends and family for our wedding. We set up a tent in the backyard and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Gene recommended our caterer, Jonathan, who set up in the garage and kitchen and serviced our wedding phenomenally. We put up the bridal party in the house for 4 nights and everyone raved about how much fun they had. The house was spotless. The amenities were awesome, we never got bored and never even ended up touching the lawn games or other things we had brought to do because the house was full of fun things- Rock Band, the sauna, hot tubs, multiple fireplaces, ping pong table and other games. The kitchen and huge dining room table were the perfect space for our rehearsal dinner and brunch after the wedding. We booked two of Gene’s other properties right near by and our families stayed in those. They all haven’t stopped talking about what a great weekend it was. Highly recommend and if you’re thinking about a wedding- do it, you will not regret it!!

Beautiful Cabin for a Great Weekend
Me and my friends had a wonderful time at Gene’s property. The place is HUGE and immaculately kept. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and plenty of areas (dining room table, porch table, fire pit, fire table, etc.) for everyone to gather and spend time together. Super drivable to Lake Placid and some high peaks. Sauna and hot tubs were also highlights! Gene was super responsive; I got a response to my texts within minutes! Would definitely stay again!
