Clean house with everything we needed for a weekend getaway. It was a little chilly this weekend so the fireplace was great. Close trails for hiking. Many wineries and breweries to choose from. I would absolutely stay here again. The hosts were super responsive.

This house was perfect and the host added special touches to make it an amazing stay! The sunrise from the front deck was so beautiful. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds and furniture were comfortable. We walked every morning and felt very safe. It is located close to wineries and restaurants.

We had a fantastic time at the Finger Lakes and could not have asked for a better home base. The view of the lake from the deck was our favorite place to hang out. Two nights we built a fire at the fire ring in the fire and watched the incredible stars above.

Another amazing weekend at this beautiful home!!

This was our second stay at this home. This time was to visit our son at Hobart for his 21rst birthday with family. The house is so beautiful and comfortable!!! We were able to do dinner in Geneva and wine tour following day and back to house for visiting around the fire and cards. We can’t wait to come back!!! Amazing home and great hosts!!!

The Home has everything you need. Great view of the Lake, comfortable beds, adequate baths, well equipped kitchen. The host went over the top in helping with pre planning ideas. Only suggestion is better lighting for dining area at night, blinds for the living area(beautiful sun in the morning but intense and warms the home to an uncomfortable level while having breakfast), and TVs in the bedrooms (and better reception as bothTVs had intermittent disruptions). The area is perfect with many wineries, breweries, Amish store, restaurants nearby. Brewery next door. The home is immaculately clean. Lots of little details overall. Our group really enjoyed our stay. Would rate10 of 10 despite the small issues mentioned. Highly recommend.

Great Visit

Perfect place for family and friends. House was ideal. Very convenient to everything in the area, bonus when is a brewery in the backyard/ next door.Hosts are great, extremely attentive and quick to respond to any questions. we very much appreciated the welcome message and wine. I would give a 9.8 as only minor thing is maybe the older tv, wasn’t optimal for watching sports on a rainy night. Maybe it was the cable.
