About the host
Hosted by Vicki Kessler
I am a mother 5 children. Our two oldest are in college at NYU Stern and the University of Albany. Our middle daughter is a senior in high school and our two little guys are 10 and 6. My husband and I love to travel and explore new areas. The short-term rental community has been a great way to get to know new areas on a local level and I hope to bring the same feeling to my guests.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with this lake house because of it's location in a quiet cove, the level ground that allows you to just walk right out to the water and of course, the beautiful interior. The surrounding area is also beautiful with rolling hills and farmland. On and off the water, we feel a sense of peace.
