Beautiful and Peaceful Stay

The owners obviously take a lot of pride in their lake cottage. The grounds were pristine with great spots for hanging out and watching the water. Cottage was very clean and kitchen was perfectly equipped. We had a small maintenance issue and the owner came and fixed same day. Great property and awesome hosts. Thanks!!

Perfect First Time Lake Get Away!

This was our first time using VRBO and renting a cottage on a lake. The cozy cottage was just perfect for our family of 6 adults. The host was very responsive and the cottage was just as described. Kitchen was well stocked and rest of the house was small but well-appointed. The outdoor space perfect for watching sunsets, resting in the hammock or hanging out by the firepit. And Rushford lake is a hidden gem! We will definitely be back next year!

Magic on Lake Rushford

We have just completed a four night stay at this charming cottage. It had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay right on the lake! We were in the area visiting family and while we were there we learned so much about the area and family history. We truly felt a connection with the area and staying at this cottage helped to make the trip pure magic. The host was so helpful and communicated frequently. We will be coming back to the area quite often in the future and we would be very happy to stay here again.

Tiny house

Property location to lake was great & lake very clean & nice. Only shower in house was way too small but we managed. Outside stairs near house wobbly, narrow & slippery when wet. Enjoyed use of kayaks & use of life vests due to lake depth!

Fantastic week @ Rushford Lake!

We just enjoyed a fabulous week at Rushford Lake with some of my adult children and grandchildren. Our cottage was perfect! There was easy access to the lake for swimming and kayaking. It was kid friendly with a sandbox, toys, books and games. The kitchen was tiny but it worked. There was plenty of seating for dining at the huge table with a beautiful view of the lake and outside under the little pavillion. We enjoyed campfires around the firepit. We had a relaxing and very enjoyable time. The owner was very easy to work with and the neighborhood was pretty quiet. I would definitely recommend staying here!!

Very comfortable

The property was nice, comfortable. Definitely a better fit for older group or a group with young children just going to relax. Neighbor you share driveway with was rude, they let the dog come over and poop on the lawn and we had to clean it up. Other neighbor was friendly. Plenty of stuff for children and kitchen supplies. Owner was easy to talk to, just a lot of specific rules to follow.

Relaxing getaway for few days

The cottage at Rushford Lake was a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the peacefulness. Had fun in paddle boat & floating on noodles in the clean lake. Cottage was clean & had all you needed for your stay. Outdoor space was great with covered patio & lots of trees for shade. The best part was fire pit & beautiful view of Lake.

Cozy Little Lake House

We enjoyed our stay in this Rushford Lake house. It was very comfortable for our family of 5. The lake water was clean and my children enjoyed swimming, paddle boating, and kayaking. We had plenty to do on the days we didn’t travel to the amazing state parks in the area, including games, toys, books, movies, a hammock, and yard games. The house would comfortably sleep 10 people, although the small bathroom and shower would have a difficult time accommodating a group that large. Our vacation was relaxing and enjoyable!

Perfect cozy cottage

This cottage really was perfect for our family. Right on the lake, yet plenty of green space for the kids to run around. Lots of little nice touches that really help out. And the central air is a huge plus! But best of all, the owners are super nice and very quick to respond to any of our communications! We will definitely stay here again!

Great Summer lake house

The location of the lake house is absolutely stunning and the property is ideal for several activities like canoeing, fishing, grilling etc. However, the house itself does not stand up to the mark. For a group of people bigger than 4, the restroom and kitchen are too small. The rooms don't have doors and entrances are covered by curtains. The kitchen appliances were not great and even the coffee machine didn't work. Above mentioned problems could have been a temporary situation for the house and if rectified could potentially be one of the best places to spend a summer vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Toni Marie Allocco

Host profile image
From the Rochester NY area we found Rushford Lake when our oldest attended the NYS DEC camp at the lake. We instantly fell in love with the small community and the beauty of the lake. We waited 10 years to find our cottage and because we can't spend every day there we share it with families to enjoy the area.

What makes this property unique

We have an amazing 100 feet of waterfront. A brand new dock and boat house in 2024 that lets you sit 32feet out in the lake with stunning views in both directions.
