Great rental in a great town!

The hosts were very easy to communicate with, VERY organized, and friendly. They kindly provided a place to store our bikes during our stay. The rental unit is very clean and comfortable, has fun decor, and includes several outside seating areas and a dock. It is very close to multiple cafes, restaurants, gelato/ice cream places, and nice walking/biking trails. We had a relaxing and fun stay, and would definitely stay here again.

We had a great time. The location is perfect as we could walk everywhere. The home was clean and the decor is so fun! The yard has beautiful gardens and we were able to entertain guests on the dock. Our hosts could not have been more accommodating. They were very nice and helped us with the kayaks. We look forward to staying there again.

What an awesome unique property! Can I give it more than 5 stars? It is certainly deserving of top notch rating. Very clean comfortable. Excellent location. Unfortunately our stay was too short to enjoy all of the delights of the property. Want to come back and rent again! We had friends over to hang out around the fire pit so nice! Just trying to add a photo but have to work at it some more to get it to upload!! Thank you for a wonderful stay!! Most thorough book ever with property and local information!!

What a great place!

We can’t say enough good things about the Triangle House on the Erie Canal. We had a wonderful extended stay at this large eclectic and well appointed apartment in the heart of the Village of Fairport. It had everything we needed to relax and regroup after a house move. The important items like comfortable beds, a big TV and a great shower were all there but so were all the little things like plenty of linens and kitchen accessories. Those things coupled with really pleasant and accommodating hosts, Dave and Elaine, made the stay so easy and relaxing. It really is a perfect spot to stay and enjoy all the Village of Fairport has to offer. We would happily stay again.

Wonderful Stay in Fairport

Elaine’s apartment in Fairport is everything you could wish. The apartment was well stocked with all the amenities needed to get you started as well as a few little treats. The beds were so comfortable !! Elaine was kind enough to give us make/model so we could get our own once we get home ! The backyard was a beautiful garden and we enjoyed spending time on the dock watching all the activity on the canal. Location was excellent - within walking distance to everything. Elaine is the perfect host !

Perfect Getaway

We were absolutely delighted when we entered this beautiful home. Pictures cannot do this place justice. We felt like we hit the jackpot in choosing this place. We were in walking distance to everything in this charming little town. Elaine has an exquisite talent decorating the home. Every nook and cranny had me engaged in exploring each corner of the house. The garden was absolutely charming and the deck provided the perfect place to people watch. Wish we had more time there. I highly recommend this place and I’m already planning a girl’s trip, I cant wait to share this place my girls!

Best Place in Fairport

This is an amazing place. We were overwhelmed by all the the fine details. Firewood for the fire, chairs on the dock, a balcony overlooking the canal and everything you could want if you decided to cook. Our accommodations were better than we hoped for. So many cool spaces to hang out. The owners could not have been nicer. I really don’t want to give this fabulous place a good review so I can keep it a secret for myself. I know you can give 5 ⭐️'s. But in actuality it truly is a !!10!!

Perfect Place; Perfect Location

Just had a three-night visit in this lovely space. Everything about it was the best. It sits on the historic Erie Canal with a large deck for coffee drinking, cocktails and best of all, duck watching. The mama ducks corralling her babies and then showing them how to jump off the deck into the water below was magical! We have many videos as we were mesmerized. We walked around the lovely town of Fairport, kayaked in the kayaks provided and just enjoyed the indoor and outdoor space immensely. There is nothing negative to say about this experience. Excellent hosts who communicate well. They are onsite and available but not intrusive at all. Thank you so very much!!

Great stay

There was plenty of room for our family of five to stay in this beautiful home right on the Erie Canal. It was close to all sorts of shops, breweries, and restaurants. We spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying the kayaks on the canal. Corning and the wineries along Seneca Lake were a nice day trip. Elaine and Dave were wonderful hosts. We would definitely stay again.
