Four of us and a little pup enjoyed this large house, inside and out for two nights. Had a nice deck to relax on and view the lake and the sunsets. Took advantage of the fire pit the second night. Close to the lake and convenient to many fine restaurants. We had a quiet, private, and peaceful stay. The place was very clean and good communication with the host throughout the process.

We loved this property and would absolutely rent it again. It was a perfect spot for a family gathering! The porches were great with plenty of seating, ceiling fans for a cool breeze and a nice view of the lake. The back yard was well maintained, fenced and dog friendly! Inside the open concept made it easy to entertain and we had a large family dinner- enjoyed local wineries and Letchworth park.

Conesus Lake Retreat

It was nestled in the woods near Conesus Lake - it is isolated enough to enjoy privacy and large enough for comfortability and relaxation. Lots of enjoyment was had.

The place is large, quiet, well-appointed and very well-maintained. I was 100 yards from the lake but felt like I was in secluded woods. Great place and stay!

Fantastic!

This was perhaps the best VRBO I've ever stayed at. Beautiful, spacious home, well appointed. Great view of Conesus Lake. So comfortable. The beds and pillows were super comfortable and the showers were great. When we come back again, this will be the first place we look for.

Conesus Vacation

The property is quiet and secluded , just what we were looking for. The cabin is a pet friendly place, so we had to do a little air freshening at first . The cabin is as advertised. Plenty of room and the deck overlooking the water was our favorite. The only downside was it was pet friendly , but we would stay here again.

Nice lake view from the covered deck and fire pit. Large master bedroom with very comfortable king bed and master bathroom. The entire home is very well equipped with pretty much anything you need, with the exception of food, so no need to bring anything but groceries and personal items. It's a fairly steep climb from the parking area to the house, but well worth it, once inside. The hosts/property manager are lightning fast with their responses. Definitely plan on staying there again.

We understand the climb from the parking area can be a bit steep, but we’re glad you felt it was worth it once inside. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another stay by the lake!

Relaxing Getaway

The house was beautiful from the inside out and the view of the lake over the treetops on the upstairs porch was my favorite to sit and drink coffee in the morning and evening. The area is very quiet and a nice getaway from the every hustle of life. The inside of the house was very clean especially for a place that allows pets. My dogs loved the getaway as well. I highly recommend and would definitely book again if I return to the area. Only negative which didn’t really bother us much was the outside garbage can hadn’t been emptied and was full, but that’s minor the stay was great overall.

What a great location for our family vacation in the finger lakes area. So many things to see. It was the perfect retreat after a busy day of exploring the area. The property was just as described. Beautiful setting up the hill overlooking Conesus lake. The views during Spring and Fall would be especially spectacular. The layout was very comfortable, spacious and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. We made full use of the roomy kitchen for meals. Grill on the back deck was a nice option. The fenced area in the backyard is a definite bonus for any pet owners. We had no issues but found the host to be very prompt with any questions we had before or during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it for anyone visiting the area.
