Bring Your Crew, Make the Adirondacks Your Home Base

2026-10-05 · Thomas Cavallaro · The Alpine Homestead™

A shared kitchen, a porch full of rocking chairs, and space to come back together, a different way to plan your next club or group getaway.

The best part of a group trip often happens after the day's adventure. Someone puts the kettle on. Someone else starts telling the story of the turn everyone missed. Before long, the whole crew is gathered around the same table, making plans for tomorrow.

That is the idea behind a stay at The Alpine Homestead™, a historic Adirondack home in Olmstedville, New York. With five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and room for up to 12 guests, it gives a group a place to be together between outings.

Start with the people, then plan the days

A riding club, a ski group, a family gathering, or a few friends who have been promising to take a trip, each group brings its own rhythm. Some people want an early start. Others would rather linger over breakfast. Having a full kitchen and shared living space makes it easier to find a pace that works for the people actually coming.

Before choosing dates, settle the guest count and the sleeping arrangements. Pick the activity that matters most to the group, then leave some breathing room around it. A memorable weekend does not need to be scheduled down to the minute.

Come back to the same porch

The covered wraparound porch has 12 rocking chairs. There is a wood stove inside and an outdoor fire pit, along with a kitchen for shared meals. These are simple things, but they change the feel of a trip. Instead of separating at the end of the day, your group can come back to the same home base.

The Homestead is pet friendly. Check the current booking details for the pet policy, fees, availability, and the requirements for your dates before making plans.

Stay & Play™, at your own pace

Use our Stay & Play™ pages to explore the area's activities, and our local guide to start planning the stops between them. Book the house for your group, then arrange activities directly with the relevant organizers or providers. Schedules, opening hours, and conditions should always be checked with the source before you head out.

For club trips and poker runs, the organizer's event page is the place to confirm the route, registration, meeting point, and any changes. An article can introduce the people and the story behind the event, while linking readers directly to those official details.

Tell the story behind your group

Alpine Press is a place for stories about the region and the people who make it memorable. A club has more to share than a date on a calendar: why it started, the cause it supports, the places its members love, and the neighbors who help make an event happen.

If your club or community organization has a story to share, send us its official website, public event details, and the contact for verifying the story. We can build an article around those facts and include links that help readers reach the source. Every Alpine Press story has a permanent web address that you can share with your members or link to from your own website.

And when the talking winds down, there is another way to hear a little of the Homestead. Echoes of the Alpine™ brings the podcast to the site, ready to play without an account or a separate app.
