The host Shawn was extremely helpful and communicative. The pool was a very nice size and the kids had a blast with all the floats and accessories provided. The house was very well appointed. I have never seen a rental so well stocked with many things you would not expect. There were so many games provided and the kids had fun playing games. The view is very enjoyable. Everything was exceptional. Highly recommend.

Comfortable and well appointed, attractive place. Wonderful views of lake and beautiful countryside. We had a family gathering and even the most critical of our group had trouble coming up with a complaint. It is a fun, kind of funky, retreat from the ordinary. Loved it!

An Excellent Vacation Home for Families with Children

Our stay at the DeRuyter Lake House was perfect. The kids loved the playroom, games, toys, craft supplies and swing set. We also loved the pool and pool deck with furniture and water toys. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. Hoping to rent again.

Perfect!

The property is everything as advertised and more. Great overall experience with family as we had our short stay over a graduation weekend. Owners were very prompt and accommodating and property was well stocked and clean (not to mention the spectacular view of the lake you wake up to every day). We only wish we had more time to explore the lake and area….

The log home was even better than the pictures. We all had a wonderful time at the pool, fishing, hiking and just relaxing. My 2yr old grandson also had a great time - SO much for him to do. He loved the playhouse. Shawn was very welcoming and responsive.

We stayed at this home for Colgate parent weekend. The house was immaculate and the home owner, Shawn, was very easy to work with. He offered us a late checkout and was happy to accommodate an early checkin. The experience was great.
