Amazing location! Easy check in and friendly staff. Small issue with appliances in the apartment which was quickly resolved. Our 1 bedroom suite was perfect for a couple but could also accommodate small kids on a pull out couch in the living room. Highly recommend and would stay again!

Wilmington is a great location if you’re looking to get away to enjoy the Adirondack Mountains. Wilmington is home to Whiteface Mountain, and there are incredible views and opportunities to hike. Close to Lake Placid and Keene Valley!
