The house was very comfortable and clean. The amenities were very extremely good. Much better than any property I have rented on Lake Ontario. There was nothing missing in the kitchen, the hosts very graciously provided coffee kcups, paper towels, kleenex, toiletries, garbage bags, great hair dryer, etc. which was very much appreciated. The bedding and towels very clean. Living room very comfortable, beds comfortable, access to vacuum and brooms, etc. The dock was great for our boat, and the area good for swimming and other lake activities. The hosts were wonderful, helpful, and very accessible and friendly. We would love to rent again.

PERFECT!

My family and I had the best time. The cottage was clean, had everything we needed and the hosts were very accommodating. We were able to use the dock for our boat and enjoyed renting kayaks. The location was perfect for family members coming from Syracuse, Pittsford and Webster. We will be back.

Nothin but the best!!!

We completely enjoyed our BFF girls weekend getaway on the water!!! The kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, outdoors and everything was well stocked and well prepared. Everything was very clean and comfortable. It was obvious a lot of thoughtfulness went into preparing for guests. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We couldn't have had a better experience. The weather even cooperated! Thank you Toni and Joe! We are privileged to be your first guests and look forward to many more!

Boating paradise

We throughly enjoyed our visit, the house was everything we hoped it would be and Toni & Joe were great hosts that made sure we had what we needed. The house was clean and equipped with everything we needed, best of all, no doubt, was the view of Little Sodus Bay. There are many things to see and do in the area, we enjoyed the Sterling Renaissance Festival, Colloca Winery (which we boated to), Chimney Bluffs State Park and Sterling Nature Center both offered amazing hiking trails along the shore and bluffs of Lake Ontario. Best of all was the boating in Little Sodus Bay and Lake Ontario, just stunning! Best sunsets you’ll ever see. Such a great place, thanks again Toni and Joe!
