The cottage was exactly as listed. The sunset from the deck was very pretty. The fenced in yard was an added bonus for the dogs to play after a long car ride. Wish we had more time to enjoy the lake front. There is so much to do in the area.
Great place, owners are very kind, can't beat the Finger Lakes
Very nice cottage and beach and as is often the case, lakefront spots are always even better in person. Owner very responsive and friendly. Just can't beat the Finger Lakes!
We had an amazing stay in this cute cottage! I loved the adorable coziness of the cottage, the fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. We enjoyed kayaking and the paddle boat. Everything was perfect! We can't wait to stay again!
Had a nice time other than the mixup. It was a clean, and lovely place.

I'm glad you still had a good time. Yes, this website had erroneously given you the wrong address, and you accidentally settled into our three bedroom rental house next door, before those guests arrived, instead of this one bedroom cottage. I had sent you pre-arrival information with the correct address, but you referred to the website's information instead, which I can understand. I have called them to correct this issue now. I'm sorry it happened to you though. Thanks for your understanding. So glad to have had you as our guests.
Nice place to journey from and enjoy the activities in surrounding area with a nice place to have a fire near the lake. Perfect time of year if you don't like crowds.
Perfect small cottage for us and our dogs. Mary and her husband were very accommodating and we had a great time. Perfect home base for our trip that centered around hiking state parks.
My husband and I enjoyed our time at the cozy cottage. It was very spacious and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable! The views from the deck were great! We had breakfast on the deck so we could relax and take in the views. Overall we loved the cottage and would stay again.
My spouse and I booked a getaway in late April. The cottage was clean, cute and so close to multiple fantastic wineries. It was a rainy weekend so we didn’t get to enjoy the lake, but will have to book Cozy Cottage again for future weekends!
Mike and Mary were wonderful hosts. Very prompt with answering questions and just very easy to talk to. The cottage was lovely and the location on the lake couldn’t have been better Super close to several wineries and breweries. Mike and Mary put together a great list of recommendations that was super useful. Highly recommend this adorable little cottage.
The house clean and details provided about the listing were very accurate. My wife enjoyed jetted tub. Location was excellent and easy to get following directions and information about the roads near cottage. The fenced in yard for dogs was very convenient . We only stayed one day and it rained but would be an excellent spot to view a beautiful sunset that the area is known for .
The cottage was indeed cozy, perfect for a lakeside house. Kitchen was well equipped and clean, had everything we needed. Loved having the kayaks, we took a couple trips out on the lake in our short 3 night stay. The water front area is not ideal for swimming, but I still took a couple dips after kayaking...
Great area - lots of wineries plus Watkins Glen and Taughannock Falls State park less than 25 minutes away. Geneva, only 35 minutes to the north, is another "cool" little finger lake town(small city) on the north end of the lake - "Lake Trout Capital of the World"
Greatest use of space, an old garage transformed into a very quaint cottage. Had everything we needed. Be aware there are three cottages that share all the listed beach amenities, did not know that but it was not an issue at all. Overall perfect place for the pets with a fenced in backyard.
My husband, I and our dog had a great week long stay at Mary's and Mike's cozy cottage. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. Great outdoor deck with a fenced in yard below it for our pup! The views from the deck were amazing. The stairs going down were no problem and the lakefront was wonderful. Our pup loved playing and swimming in the water and we loved taking the kayaks out. Mary and Mike were very friendly and responsive with any questions we had. Loved our stay and hope to come back again!

Thanks Yana, for your nice review. We recently power-washed the staircase down to the lake, and I'm happy to hear that they are no problem now. I'm glad you had a nice week at the cottage too. Thanks for being our guest.
We really enjoyed our stay at this cute little cabin. It was very clean and enough space for our dogs and the two of us. The 75 stairs were not an issue at all, in fact, sometimes we went up and down a couple times a day. We loved taking the kayaks out. On our last evening around 7:00 pm we kayaked down the left and saw four huge bald eagles. That was amazing. There were a lot of good wineries and restaurants in the area. All of them were excellent. The view was so pretty. Also close to Watkins Glen and many other state parks. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Know before you book
There are 100 steps down to the lake - yes, I counted twice.. This property is ABOVE the lake. It is a converted garage right on the 1.3 mile dirt road - do NOT bring a nice car. If you have any mobility issues, the steps to the lake can be slippery and it is steep. The kayaks are great! The cottage is dated but has everything you need. It is suggested NOT to drink the water as it is lake water and you need to bring your own toilet paper-weird. Perhaps I did not read the description well, but I wish I had known these things before I booked. The owner was very responsive when we needed ant traps.
We had a relaxing and comfortable stay at Mike and Mary's cottage. There is a wonderful deck over looking a fenced in yard and Seneca Lake. The 75 steps down to the lake sounds daunting, but it was actually not a problem at all! I took advantage of the view off the deck and painted the beautiful scenery. If you paint, I encourage you to bring your easel and paints! Our two small dogs had a great time feeling the independence of walking out the sliding doors in the kitchen, onto the deck, down the stairs and inspecting the yard! The yard was also large enough for 15 pound dogs to play Frisbee! Mary was very kind and communicative and made sure any concerns we had were addressed. We appreciated her help and information! We met Mike one day while returning from a fun day touring the wineries, we had a lovely conversation about the history of his family in the area and their future plans. We would absolutely recommend the "Cozy Cottage" on Seneca Lake, so close to many great dog friendly restaurants and wineries! You will have a great time!
My husband and I enjoyed being able to stay in such a beutiful part of the region and still be close to our kids. Everything went so smootly with the directions getting to this private little paridise from Mary made it so easy. We enjoyed having such a resposive host. Would highly recommend staying here. We will be back again for sure. The place was just as pictured and very clean. I had no complants of the property. I love the way they made the space feel so open and have the double set of slidding doors to see the views from everywhere. The deck was so enjoyable to sit out on and watch the sunrise and listen to the sounds of nature. We loved being down on the lake dock to watch the sunset. Our stay was such a peaceful and relaxing visit from our overly busy lives. The full kitchen was wonderful to have, but love that this place is so central to so many restarunts and things to do within 30 minutes. We walked the stairs down to and up from the lakeshore, just as told it was like 75 steps, but nothing to bad and felt safe on the steps. Loved being able to take a bath with the jets and candles. We needed this refreasher for just one night, but planning a longer getaway in this beautiful place.

Not exactly like pictures and as describes
The house itself was clean and roomy. Had things been working properly and communication happened up front it would have been less disappointing. Pictures in the Liston are outdated. While the pictures show all the steps to the lake, the pictures show new well maintained steps, now the steps are ages and slippery. They need to be power washed. The fenced in yard is great for dogs but had now been mowed. The cold water in the whirlpool tubsb did not work. The lakeside area was junky with actually the owners stuff next to the dock area for this cabin. The picture left to show what area was shared and what was for each of the cabins did not look anything like what it looked like once down there. There were many rules including only making one trip down to the lakeside area per day, but if unable to go up and down the stairs, that should have been disclosed within the cancelation timeframe. The beach area was actually full of grass so it wasn’t really conducive to swimming. Or paddleboating. The house itself was great. The amenities we thought we would be able to enjoy as a “lakefront house” were not represented accurately in a timely fashion that would allow someone to make a decision about whether it was a property they would enjoy renting.
The cabin was perfect after our long day on the wine trail. The hosts were great and everything was clean and tidy!

unsafe
upon arriving and entering bathroom our first problem happened... the bathroom heater was broken. the jacuzzi tub cold water side did not work. a note told us to run the cold water from the shower faucet to fill up tub. then the unattached step to get into tub fell away when stepped on. i was pretty seriously hurt. i injured my leg, banged the back of my head and hurt my shoulder. needless to say i removed the unsafe step immediately.. when makin our way to very high steps leading to water there was a pavilion on top of the hill . it very cluttered with pieces of lumber and assorted debris. also like the railings going down , no railing pickets. the building in question was being supported on one side by a car jack on a piece of wood. very dangerous. the inside of rental was dirty and very dated. we loved the area but the place was terrible.
