Whether you want to enjoy a cozy dinner by the fire after a glorious day of skiing, or take in the beauty of Adirondack High Peaks region from the deck on a
sparkling summer day, The Scenic Point Chalet is for you.
Nestled in the AuSable Acres community, we are conveniently located just miles
from mountains (including Whiteface) to explore or an easy ride to spend the day in Lake Placid. We are also 3 miles from lovely Ausable Forks where you can pick up whatever you need (groceries, gas, banking) or grab a bite to eat and enjoy a night out in this quaint village.
But you may never need to leave the Acres as this wonderful wooded
neighborhood includes a man-made lake (Lake Eaton) to enjoy fishing and boating that is surrounded by a private 8 mile trail system for cross country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, or trail running. The Lake Eaton Picnic Area includes tennis courts, a playground and much more. If you are an angler, you’ll love the private access point to the West branch of the Ausable River.
And after exploring the Acres, you can sit back and relax on the large deck
surrounded by peaceful woods or curl up by the fire in the cozy family room.
This chalet comes completely furnished and stocked, ready for any length stay.
With our fully equipped kitchen, generous selection of linens, towels, blankets,
washer and dryer, and 2 full baths you will have everything you need for your
stay. And, if you want to keep entertained, the chalet features a stereo system, WiFi, Flatscreen TV with cable and a few extra sports channels.
If you are getting the family together for a ski trip or other outdoor adventure,
