Anyone who vacations in, or has a seasonal home (without washer/dryer) in the Jay/Wilmington area…read moreknows that there wasn't much in the way of laundry services here unless you wanted to go down to the river and beat your stuff on a rock. Until Riverside Laundromat showed up. First, this place is adorable- wood walls, nice lighting, and CLEAN. Things that might be important to you: They have wifi. Password is on the wall by the change machine. They have a change machine. They also use a card system that can be paid for with cash or credit card. It appears, though, that the machines work with credit card too so I'm not sure of the benefit of their card. I got one anyway. They have two machines that dispense single serve detergent if you need. 6 chairs for waiting. They have a bathroom. 4 laundry carts. A couple surfaces for folding. The price- There are two different sets of washers and dryers- big and small. For the big machine- $5.75 for a "normal" 22 minute cycle- price goes up if you change the temp, choose heavy duty, etc. $3.50 for a smaller machine. I used the larger because I didn't notice the smaller (face palm). The huge dryers are .25 for four minutes. They are nice huge dryers though- could fit a sleeping bag if ya need. Which reminds me, shoulda brought mine. Dang it. The smaller dryers are .25 for five minutes. The only thing that was a bugger using their card is that I chose 30 minutes to dry and had to stand there and swipe their card 6 times because it was only doing 25 cents at a time. They do have a pickup service but you have to call because it wasn't attended when I came by. Excellent place. Beats toting dirty clothes back home!

It's full of friendly people who are enthusiastic about the skies above us, and are eager to share their knowledge with the public. On Friday nights during the summer when they do stargazing! (So long as the weather is nice, you can join their email list to get updates if conditions are iffy.) The roof rolls off of the observatory building, and there's a warming room in case it gets chilly! Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting the area.

He only takes the furniture when he is ready to work on it, so the turn around is fast. He returned with my furniture and put it back in place. He had removed the buttons as I had requested on the chair backs and figured out a solution so the seat cushions no longer slip off the chairs. He even made arm covers out of some of the leftover fabric! Very good work, really nice man, very efficient and a reasonable price.

It was a welcome stop over for travelers from Wilmington to Lake Placid at the turn of the century. The house is long gone but the pull out remains and commemorative plaques have been placed here which honor the New York state Conservation Corps. Since you're already parked to check out the markers, wander a little. The West Branch of the Ausable River is here and Monument Falls is nearby. Well worth checking out.
