Couldn’t have picked a better property! As an ithaca alum bringing my family back this summer I wanted to experience more of the lakefront living- our stay here for the holiday weekend exceeded our expectations. Pictures truly do not do this property justice! Extremely clean, great communication from the hosts, and stunning views. Definitely recommend!

The whole place was super quaint and nice. I love the aesthetic of the entirety of the space. My partner and I had a great time. The only small issue was that there are bugs in the sink, but specifically ants. Other than that, the place was incredibly clean. Very comfy, cozy, would recommend.

Great Lake vacation spot

The lake house was excellent. The decks were great with views of Cayuga Lake. We went swimming off the dock every day and took advantage of the kayaks and paddle boards. We would absolutely stay there again.
