The cottage was perfect for our family of four. We spent most of our time on the back deck enjoying the lake views. It was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities you need in a lake cottage. Communication with host was quick and easy. It’s close to Watkins Glen for hiking and Hammondsport for swimming at Depot Park. We would definitely rent again.

We absolutely loved the house and the property. Sits right on the lake that gives a beautiful view. We would definitely consider staying here again if given the opportunity.

This was our first visit to the Finger Lakes and it won't be our last!! The view from the back porch of this beautiful home was enough for the 5 stars! However, when you add in the fully stocked kitchen, including paper products, plenitful replacements for all necessities and spotless cleanliness,you cannot go wrong!!! The only negative for us was that both bathrooms were on the first floor and 2 bedrooms are on the second. This is only an issue for those eho get up frequently in the night!! Thank you for sharing your stunning lake home!!!

The house is right on the lake. The view from the porch is beautiful. A lot of good restaurants around there. It was a very good experience. If I am even in the area will definitely book again.
