Was a nice spot. Our family had a good time. Could use ladder to get back on dock from water and chairs for by fire pit. Didnt want to take nice chairs over. Great location. Had a blast
We had a good time overall. The views are spectacular and the location is mostly private. The house itself has great potential. It just wasn’t very clean. Sheets smelled of sweat, bathtub was full of soap scum and my husband spent over an hour cleaning up in the bathroom alone. Dead bugs everywhere, bugs crawling in the bed. We had to do quite a bit of cleaning before we were able to settle in. I eventually had good communication with Lianna but there weee delays in response l. But the cleanliness of the place could have detracted from an otherwise relaxing vacation.
The house was beautiful on the inside and the views were breathtaking. The beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with all pans, plates, bowls and glasses you could need. It was really nice that they had 2 refrigerators. One for all our drinks and one for the food. The fact that they were the last camp on the road made for privacy. The neighbors that they did have were extremely friendly. They allowed us to use their boat hoist which was a major plus. It was so nice to be able to get up in the morning and get right on the lake for fishing and fun. If you are an angler, this is the place for you. We caught trout, bass and perch right off the dock. It was an amazing vacation and would definately stay again.
Very nice house super clean and updated. Great location. Very friendly neighborhood. Two towns within 30 minutes in either direction. Winery less then 10 minutes away.
Very nice property. Perfect for 2 couples. Loved being right on the water. No dishwasher which wasn't a big deal for us, kayak needs new seats but these are minor things.
We had a wonderful time at this house for the week. The house itself was nicely updated with a very comfortable large sofa and a fully stocked kitchen. But the true star is the big beautiful deck right over the water. Stunning days gave way to the most gorgeous and majestic sunsets I've ever seen. There is also lake access right from the deck steps, where you can take out a kayak, paddle board, or ring raft and just float about while watching some local boats go by. The only caveat, as others have mentioned, is the distance from amenities and some things to do. But once you get the lay of the land, you just have to plan to drive a bit for most things. The markets are about 20-30 min away. There are some nice wineries and a brewery with beautiful views as well - some places serve food some don't and most close around 5:00. Seneca lake and Scaneatles are about an hour away at their closest points. Lastly, the road the house is on is a narrow gravel road that takes about 5 min at 5 miles an hour as there are other homes, people, pets along the way, so there's no running out the house to pick something up. However, without that road you don't get the great lake location, so it's worth it and you get used to it pretty quickly. We look forward to booking this house again in the near future. Thanks Lianna!
Cozy cute lake house. Great location, very peaceful and beautiful views.
The cottage is as good if not better than the pictures show. The sunsets were incredible. The kitchen and living area were huge, open and airy. All amenities one would need. We grew up going to a family cottage very nearby and this location was special for me and 4 of my siblings. We hadn't been together in 8 years. We fished, kayaked, floated around the lake, it was an incredibly beautiful week. We are hoping to book for 2 weeks next year! Communication with Leanna was perfect, we had zero issues. Highly recommend! Neighbors great too!
The house is just as stated - quiet and peaceful, in a beautiful location. We were treated to amazing sunsets every night. This lake is absolutely beautiful! Perfect for boating or just sitting on the decks and enjoying the sun and sound of the waves rolling in. I have to mention the neighbors; they are very friendly, welcoming and very helpful. Wonderful vacation
This property was exactly as the pictures appeared. The house was well equipped with everything you would need - great kitchen appliances, etc, furnishings and outdoor fun toys for the teens. I would highly recommend it for a great time on the lake.
Property fit our needs perfectly. Nice owners and neighbors. Only negative is it is 30+ minutes away from Groceries and Cornell.. wonderful memories far out way and other minor issues.
This property is very beautiful and very quiet. It is a bit far from stores so make sure and stock up before you come. The sunsets are amazing and peaceful. Beds are comfy. We did some GiGi g and relaxing and enjoyed wineries and brewery. It was a bit far from Ithaca whatcha we were there for graduation but it wasn’t too bad. Certainly a nice ride. Lianna the host is great and gets back to you for anything you need
