We stayed in early November and had a wonderful experience at the cottage. The beds were sooo comfortable. Enjoyed coffee down by the lake and enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere throughout the day. The home was immaculate and offered every amenity we needed. Highly recommend this rental!
We had a great time at Duckingham Cottage! The area was so nice and it was nice to be on a smaller lake. The house was clean and updated and fit our needs perfectly! We had an issue where we had to call maintenance since we got locked out but they came within 20 minutes and got it fixed! Great communication and very helpful throughout the trip. Hope to stay here again in the future!
Everything was exactly as advertised. Freshness and cleanliness with beautiful views of the lake. My friends and I spent 12+ hours fishing on the lake. Coming back to a clean and updated cottage to grill & enjoy company sealed our love for this place. Property manager kept up consistent communication in case we needed anything but everything was already provided.
Our family enjoyed your home on the lake. Some of went to wineries, others over to Watkins Glen race course to catch the vintage races and others just relaxed in the backyard and used your paddleboards and kayaks in the lake. I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a long weekend in the Fingerlakes area. The home is very clean, comfortable and has a great deck/patio area overlooking the lake.
We had a wonderful stay. It was ver TV comfortable. Enjoyed being by the lake and the location.
The cottage was everything and more than we expected. Beautiful location on the lake with several options of outdoor seating to enjoy the lake front. Thankfully the A/C kept us comfortable while indoors. I have to admit there were a couple downsides: 1) Geese & ducks tended to really like the two neighboring properties along with Duckingham Cottage, possibly the reason for the cottage name. Anyways, watch for poops by the water and on the dock. 2) Since the stay was so enjoyable, leaving was very melancholy. I can imagine this would be a great rental at any time of year. Would love a return visit in the future.
Clean cottage with nice updates. Adequate kitchen well stocked. Really appreciated use of kayak, canoe, and young grandchildren ages 4 and 15 mos loved paddle boat with their parents. 4 yr old sang the Disney Moana songs as she held her ‘oar ‘in the water while in the canoe ?Lake calm with occas gusty spells nothing dramatic. Didnt swim here but went to small ‘beach’ area Hammondport- about 10-15 min drive-stone bottom but grandChildren loved it - just need water shoes.Fishing off the dock and spots around the lake. Made fire in the firepit- seating for 10 down by the firepit! New deck table /chairs and new seating area furniture on patio. Plenty of linens provided which was appreciated. Additional party space was great- lots of games for all ages. Lawn for girls to run on. Easy access to wineries, craft breweries and restaurants. New restaurant /bar/music 5 min walk. Multple birds singing all the time-lovely-also saw Heron, Osprey, ducks, geese and even turtles sunning in channel connecting Waneta with Lamoka lakes. Joleen was really easy to work with, very responsive- answered all of our questions. We had a great week. Thank you to Joleen and her crew!
We really enjoyed our stay here! The cottage looks small from the outside but is quite roomy and comfortable. Everything was very clean and the kitchen is well stocked. The bar room is great. There’s lots of games to play. We loved using the watercraft. We’d definitely stay here again. Thank you!
We stayed here over the Thanksgiving holiday. House was clean and comfortable. It was cold and a bit snowy, but we started a fire in the wood stove, and the house was very cozy. the kitchen had everything we needed to make a full thanksgiving dinner. The bar area was great. There were a lot of games, and we enjoyed them almost every night. We enjoy the outdoors, and there were several hiking locations we visited on our trip. There are also a number of wineries to visit very close to the house. A very relaxing Holiday weekend, thank you for sharing it with us.
The cottage was clean and well equipped. The decor was very cute and not overdone. The weather was too cold during our stay to use all the water toys, but they looked like they were well maintained. The location is perfectly situated between Wakins Glen and Hammondsport. Our only complaint would be the bed and bedding on the master bed. Too hard for our taste, however, other people might find the hardness nice. The bedding was clean but needs to be updated. The sheets were too short on the sides and the comforter was too thin and too short on the sides. Also, a padded mattress cover would be a nice addition. Other than that small issue, we really enjoyed our stay at the cottage.
