We had a lovely stay - the place was clean and well stocked with anything we could need.The all season room was our favorite spot.The house on all one level was perfect for our family having an individual in a wheel chair.The dog run and door was a great feature as well.The lake views are amazing as advertised and the host was friendly and responsive.
Margaret was a wonderful host. We were in touch before, during, and after our stay. Her home was spacious and welcoming with a beautiful view of Cayuga Lake. We really appreciated her attention to detail and the way that every need was anticipated and met. Our dog enjoyed her private fenced space. One of our very favorite VRBO experiences.
The house has all the amenities you could want, everything was clean and well maintained. We brought our own boat for fishing and used the dock for swimming and kayaking. Everyone has a great time!
A perfect place to spend a week at the finger lakes. The house was very well appointed with furniture and accessories. The host was wonderful I can’t wait to return next year.
Great property and location, incredible amenities, VERY clean, responsive and caring host, enjoyable stay.
Stayed for 4 days with our family and our dog and had an amazing and relaxing time. Margaret is an incredible host and always available to help.

Thank you for being such great guests. I am glad you found your stay enjoyable and relaxing.
The house was awesome and exactly as described! It was the perfect lake house getaway! Margaret has also gone above and beyond to make the home pet friendly. Would love to stay here again!
Perfect spot for our Cayuga stay. House is cozy and dog friendly. Hard to beat that combo in such an amazing lake front property. 10/10 would recommend for travelers with or without canine companions.
Kitchen super well equipped. Owner very responsive. Lake lovely. Nice community.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Overall, a good stay, and a great location. House had great amenities, beds very comfortable. Felt like we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. However, be aware that the host stays directly on the property the entire time. We didn’t enjoy them mowing grass during our stay there without a heads up. Felt like that could’ve waited until we checked out.

It’s unfortunate that I had to mow that day. The next day was going to be in the 90’s and the next couple of days were unpredictable. Owner on premise was clearly stated in the listing.
This property was the perfect low key, dog friendly, lake vacation. It was our first time taking our dog on vacation and it was perfect. The home was fully equipped for all our needs. Easy access to the lake. We rented a pontoon boat and the dock was convenient. The owner was very attentive to all our needs. Will definitely stay again.
The property has everything you can ever want . was just like being in my own home. Even had a backup generator just in case. the floor wall all wood plank vinyl which made it very easy for cleanup if you have pets.
This home is right on the lake. Inside is well appointed and is bigger than the photos convey. The backyard has a lovely porch to sit and relax while enjoying the view of the lake. The fenced in yard space for the dogs was awesome. We will be back!
A perfect getaway for our family and our one year old Bernese. We spent most of our time on the patio , the fire pit and floating in the lake. This house has the most comfortable beds, a kitchen that is equipped( we like to cook as a family). Our Bernese even had his own fenced in yard.We have booked a return visit.
2nd time staying. Hostess is wonderful and prompt if any questions or problem.
There were 6 adults, plenty of room. Beautiful deck that overlooks the lake, beautiful sunsets. Dock is close for boat.
We are looking forwsrd to our next stay.
House was great. It was so clean. Very roomy and great for my dogs as well. Margaret was such a wonderful host....thank you so much! My family and i had such a great time. We brought our boat. The lake was beautiful!!!
This home had all that was advertised and then some. The house is very clean. It has a great view of the lake with easy access. The boat launch is less than 4 miles down the road with a dock on the property. There is plenty of parking and room for the boat trailer. Very lovely setting. I would defiantly stay there again.
I live on the property, in the guest house by the road with Luna, a Bull Terrier mixed. She was adopted on Thanksgiving 2018. She is friendly and likes to bark when she meets someone new or greets a friend. The boathouse is not part of the rental. It is only for private use and occasionally for friends.
