Just amazing !!
We stay mid week for a ski trip with friends and family- there were 8 of us ranging in ages 11-47. Everyone had a great time- house was perfect with plenty of room for kids and adults. Super cozy and clean. Plenty of games on hand to play. Only 15 mins to Gore which was even better. We had a great time and plan on going back next year!!

Very clean and conveniently located
Our family of 7 (3 adults, 4 kids) thoroughly enjoyed our ski vacation staying at Whit's End! The house is right by the lake with a beautiful view all around. It's super clean and well stocked. The location is very convenient - about 25 min drive to Gore Mountain and 35 mins drive to Lake George. Overall a great experience!

Chill Out and Recharge
Whit’s End is the place to chill out and recharge overlooking Friends Lake. The lake was frozen and just majestic against the colorful background. We enjoyed hiking, the fire pit and a few friendly games of scrabble. We would rent again if there is availability. I give it a 5+.

Ski Haven
We stayed at Whit's End to be near Gore Mountain for skiing. We were glad the house is located just off the road so it was an easy in and out since snow and ice are prevalent in the winter in this area of NY. Lock box is a bit tricky to open in the cold weather. The property manager was easy to locate and he came quickly to provide legal ice melt for the front of the house. The ride to Gore Mountain is approximately 20 minutes. The house is beautiful with a gorgeous view of Friends Lake from the living area and the basement. The house is decorated in a warm and cozy manner so it feels like home. Many thanks to the Whitman family who have gone above and beyond to make the house feel like a home. Thank you to them for their hospitality. Supplies were plentiful including spices in the kitchen and toiletries for the bathroom. Food shopping was nearby in Chestertown or in North Creek if you pick up items after skiing. There was plenty of room as the house has bedrooms on three floors with living areas on each floor. Even during very cold temperatures the first and second floor were warm. The basement is off the lake with a slider and is cold during the day and at night but the bedroom has a small space heater to keep sleeping guests warmer. We had a fantastic time here and would be happy to be allowed to visit again.
