Most of our stay was well spent enjoying the private beach area and refreshing Cayuga Lake. The lakefront is a short stroll across the quiet road and down a number of steps but is well worth it for the large private waterfront. Our dogs had the best time and were exhausted by the second day of our stay. We would consider this property again for future vacations. ##### Brittany L.

Beds were comfortable, plenty of cooking utensils/pots/pans, porch was perfect. Kayaks were nice to use a couple of times over the weekend. Only comment I have is a few of the indoor (living room) and outdoor (Adirondack) chairs have clearly seen some heavy use over the summer and will need replacement soon. ##### Mollie S.

The bungalow overlooked the lake with a beautiful view of the sunrise. The place was very clean and comfortable. The grassy slope up to the house was a bit slippery and steep, but other than that, we loved it. We would definitely return. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim G. 25 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great vacation Everything was mostly perfect. One of the ceiling fans I. Family room was not working which wasn’t a problem because it wasn’t hot the week we were there. Would have been if it was hot. A king size bed would have been perfect but bedrooms are small. Other than those two things we had a perfect vacation. Lots of sea glass at dock which was fun finding. ##### Kim G. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole G. 9 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### High ceiling, entry Loved this house, needs to be cleaned of its cob webs though. Not only up high but even at eye level and down low. The lakefront access was amazing. The door to get in is up a steep grass hill and was slippery on our wet weekend away. Needs some stairs to get up there. ##### Nicole G. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Chris G. 3 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great little cottage for a quick vacation We enjoyed our stay at this cottage. The location was great, being centrally located in the Fingers Lakes area. It was generally clean and the whole process of booking it was great. However, there were a couple of downsides: there is a basement with foosball and ping pong, which was a lot of fun to play, but it was unfinished and smelt quite musty. Recommend the owners finish the basement to make it nicer and add value. The other downside was the dock. You can't really tell from the ad, but to get to the dock, you have cross a road (not busy at all) and walk down steep stairs. The dock itself was quite rickety and the chairs were old and falling apart. The final downside was the lack of basic necessities like salt, garbage bags, etc. The owners do provide a very small amount of this kind of stuff, and to be fair, they do explicitly recommend to bring your own, but it seems like such a small thing to not provide. Would be much more convenient for guests if these types of basics were simply provided in reasonable quantity. Other than that, it was a nice place, very clean upstairs and perfect for a family or several friends. ##### Chris G.

Our overall impression of the home was wonderful!! We loved the seclusion/privacy. Central Air would have been nice on a couple of warm nights. The guest upstairs, was uncomfortable sleeping due to no air conditioning. We had an issue with water pressure in the bathroom, but the issue was addressed in a timely manner, at our convenience. We definitely plan to book this property again. ##### Amy K.

We had our golden retriever with us who loved swimming and playing fetch with his frisbee off the dock :) Our 2 and 4 year old kids had fun in the shallow waters and the kayaks were great too. The only negative was that there was no remote to the tv and no one returned our call from property management about it. My husband downloaded an app to turn his phone into a remote which worked fine. Overall would highly recommend and hope to stay again!

We had a few issues. We arrived after dark and the key in the lock box did not fit the door it was attached to. We finally realized it fit the door on the other side of the house but a note on the door would have been very helpful. Also, there were no filters for the coffee pot. Every other rental house I have stayed in has always had a supply of filters available. We found some at a local store but they didn’t fit the machine and it was quite messy brewing coffee. Lastly, the shower had poor water pressure. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay and would stay again if in the area. ##### Carrie O.

Pros- location is great, amenities are good, etc. Cons- they have the cheapest, thin, scratchy towels that I would expect from a Motel 6\. When I'm paying this much to stay in a vacation home I expect real towels and I'm not a fancy person. I gladly would have brought my own from home. Also there are no small rugs anywhere such as inside the entrance to wipe your feet off of. The house is built into a hill (which I understand is normal around most of the lakes) but there is no stairway up and the grass was wet/muddy/slippery to even walk up/down and then there's no mats inside to wipe your shoes off on. Also the 'driveway' should be marked better as it's hard to tell how to best park on the hill. Overall the home is ok, but def super glossed up professional pics, then these little things really make a difference. The home is clean, equipped but please get actual real towels, washable door side mats, etc. Also please have more than just 2 small pillows for the seating area and some fluffy blankets to make it homey. It just didn't have a cozy vibe that it really could if these things were added. The location is great but we would not stay here again and it's nothing that we would have complained about DURING our visit- really just feedback for the company to please address for future people. ##### Kristen L.

The only issue that was so disappointing was the amount of heavy dust and spiderwebs on ceiling fans, corners of ceilings, walls, and baseboards. The essentials were prepared properly but dusting is a must. Would’ve been 5 star rating otherwise. ##### Nicole D.

Also don’t hunt down life jackets, they have them! Bring a metal spatula for the grill! ##### Jen D. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ---
