Great Rental

House was exactly as described, plenty of room for everyone to spread out, ample parking, and lots of seating both inside and out. We found the home quite accommodating and communication was easy and responsive with the host. The game room and yard space separate this lake rental from others we’ve stayed at. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Cool place

Hosted a birthday for my husband here, it was very fun. Good place for different ages to spread out. Owner super responsive. Tiny bedrooms, typical for finger lake house. No dishwasher, so bring paper plates. Would go back 👍

college reunion

My friends from college and I used this property as a place to have our annual reunion recently and this place had absolutely everything we needed to make our weekend one to remember. The owner, Shaun, is an amazing guy and so good at communicating. His goal is to truly ensure you have a great stay. Our experience was so good we plan on coming back as long as we can!

July 4 week

Shaun was very responsive. Bedrooms were small and house could use some updates but everyone had a good time. The lake was very busy due to it being the 4th of July weekend. The Ring of fire and fireworks were exceptional.

The everything house

Three generations of our Brady bunch family at a great time at Hayes hideaway. If you're two years old or 65 there is something for you to do. House truly had everything from games on the lowest level of the house to kayaks and hammocks outside, even had life preservers for children as well as adults. We will be back.

Great getaway

Hayes Hideaway was a perfect getaway for our family. The location is perfect—right in the middle of the lake so both sides are easily accessible. The fire pit, hammocks, outdoor seating, kayaks and canoe gave everyone a place to spend the beautiful days and evenings. The sunsets from the back deck were gorgeous! The house had all of the comforts at home. The kids and adults loved playing the arcade games down in the lower level. As mentioned in other reviews, the stairs are steep throughout the house, but that’s to be expected with an older home. Lots of room to spread out and enjoy your time at the lake! Shaun was amazing at getting right back to me anytime I had a question. Check in and check out was very simple! We had a great stay!

Fun on the lake

We had a great week at this house. There were 12 of us, 8 adults & 4 kids. The bunk bed room was perfect for the kids. The bedrooms are really small (really small) but there’s no time to spend time in the bedrooms because there is so much offered at this house. Our family had shuffleboard tournaments and while waiting for the next game we played old arcade games that brought back lots of memories! Having 5 kayaks was perfect! We enjoyed being able to kayak with each other. Shaun was a great renter. There were lots of little touches that went above and beyond (flowers, coffee, movie rentals), he was responsive & accommodating. Great place!

Views are worth it

The lake view on the house is amazing. Sunsets are great to watch from the deck. As others said the rooms are very small. The house could use some updating as there was dry wall laying on the ground and peeling off the walls. My biggest concern was the back room where my 1 year old was staying with us had a problem with the door knob. The door would stick and make it so hard to open. It was a huge safety concern of ours.

Family vacation

The host was easy to communicate with and rectified problems as promptly as he could. The house was outdated. It could use a deep clean. It was surface cleaned though. Bedrooms are small but had a dresser. We did not use the downstairs bathroom. The other two bathrooms were very spacious. Beautiful views of the lake. Easy to dock our pontoon boat that we rented. Walking distance to the pontoon boat rental. Outside space did not have any covering. Plenty of seats though. downstairs space had arcade games, which were plus. Did not feel it was extra space to sleep in though. It was a great house for multiple families.

Shaun was one of the most responsive and supportive hosts we have worked with (in the many years we have done our family trips). Beautiful spot right on the water, and it was shallow enough by the house that the littles could get in the water and manage easily. The kitchen seems recently updated and was very nice. Great spot for some lakefront living for a few days, and only just over an hour from Buffalo (where we’re originally from). Can’t beat it.

Best Week of the Summer

Our extended family had an amazing week at Hayes Hideaway! Shaun the host was very very super. We had a small problem with a missing air conditioner remote and he was over that same morning with one! He responded immediately to all my text questions even before we got to the Lake. The property had lots of room for us all. There was one day when all of us were on the lake. Thank you so much for the use of the kayaks, row boat and paddle board!! A necklace was left behind by a small granddaughter and he found it and is mailing it to her!! Above and beyond service. We used the floatation devices, the grill and the fire pit, ate meals outside on the abundant seating areas!!! Thank you so much for Everything !

We rented this home for our wedding weekend. It was a perfect stay for our bridesmaids the first night and the second night we had both groomsmen and bridesmaids stay and it met all of our expectations. We only wish we could have enjoyed the lake and more of what the house offered but unfortunately could not due to lack of time. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay!!
