About This Home
Welcome to Bear Claw—an inviting Adirondack retreat tucked into a quiet woodland setting located within the Ausable Acres community in Jay with low yearly HOA (optional to join). Bear Claw is just a short walk to Lake Eaton's hiking/cross country skiing trails, pavilion, and recreation (2 tennis courts, basketball court, playground, fly fishing on the Ausable river). Set on approximately 0.90 acres, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a flexible layout with two comfortable living areas: an upstairs open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area with deck access, ideal for easy entertaining; and a main-level gathering space with a cozy wood-burning fireplace, a perfect place to relax after a day outside. Step out to any of the three decks for grilling, play, or peaceful mornings in the trees. Offered fully furnished and currently operating as a short-term rental with excellent income history. One-car attached garage. Conveniently located for Adirondack adventures— with Whiteface Mountain just about 10 minutes away, and an easy drive to Lake Placid or Plattsburgh for dining, shopping, and everyday needs. See why guests love it here—schedule your private tour today.
