    The location of the property is excellent. The property management responded to our concerns, but should have inspected property for reported issues prior to our visit. The spider webs and spiders need to be addressed. The cleaniness of the house needed more than just surface cleaning. The grill only fired up to 200 degrees and the oven takes a long time to warm to temperature. The flooring in the top hallway is noisy. We suggest also to have a larger recycle can and work on the noisy showers. Overall, these things did not stop us from enjoying the property and the Finger Lakes.

    House was great on the main floor and top floor. We all enjoyed the kitchen area, and the living and dining room areas. Basement bedroom was sub par. Outside Dock area and deck was really nice.

    This house was everything we needed it to be! An absolutely perfect lake front location with walk in a jump in options, the best equipped kitchen of any rental we've ever stayed in, a lake view porch that had room for everyone, comfortable beds, comfortable living rooms that fit our big group. Truly could not have asked for anything more. It was simply a perfect vacation.

    The location was amazing. The house was right on the water with a dock you could fish and swim from. The common areas were big enough so that we could all relax together. We had 11 people, and we had no issues with space. There are outdoor tables on the main level and on the basement level and both were shaded. We enjoyed the fire pit outside as well. The house is on a street that is very peaceful. We thought parking was challenging at first, but it was not an issue at all. There is a steep driveway down to the house, but there are also 2 spots above on the left, so it fit our 4 cars easily.

    Great layout, especiasly since we had a 96 year old that could stay on the main level and interact with everyone.

    With a large family coming into town all needing accommodations, this lakefront home was perfect! We weren’t too far away from Ithaca and the actual graduation. Other options in Ithaca and closer to it were far too expensive, but most of all didn’t suit the needs for the number of people we had. This place was perfect! Near to several breweries and wineries and plenty of space in the home for our entire family, it really was the best choice we could’ve made.

    Came up here for some of the wineries, state parks, and waterfalls. Relaxed and did some fishing on the dock. Great stay, would come here again for sure.

    House was very clean. Decks, patio and view of the lake was fantastic. Great location, close to a number of wineries and distilleries. Loved the amount of kitchen supplies. We had 7 adults which can go thru a lot of dishes quickly. Lots of space for everyone to relax. Parking can be challenging with the steepness of the driveway. Would definitely book it again.

    My group of 10 friends loved the house and the location. It was beautiful, right on the lake and close to everything. The beds were comfy and the house was spotless. We’re talking about a summer trip when we can enjoy more lake activities. There were two concerns. We found a dead mouse/rat drowned in a bowl of water in the kitchen sink. The other issue was that the people who slept in the lower level room noticed a smell of sewer coming from the bathroom.

    We really enjoyed our stay. The lake and property are beautiful. Was a tiny bit difficult to find as the property sits very far off the road. The amenities were more than sufficient. Wish we would have had our kayaks to enjoy the lake. Would stay here again in a minute!
