The house was used for a college friends’ weekend. The house was perfect for this with large bedrooms rooms with adjoining bathrooms for each one of us. Also, there were great gathering spaces including the spacious dining room.
We have stayed at this property a couple of times now and really enjoy the home and its surroundings. The house is the perfect size for a group to spread out and have their own space.
We rented the home for three nights with the whole family for our daughter's wedding weekend. It was just so; truly perfect, the home, the landscaping, the view, we plan to do it again next year!
Our stay was perfect with the large home, its bedrooms and separate baths; plenty of space within the house and terrific Kitchen and dining capabilities. We all enjoyed the surroundings and were able to walk the grounds which made it memorable. Thank-you

A great gathering of family and friends to celebrate the 4th of July, a new marriage and two birthdays. The house was perfect, spacious and very comfortable. The rooms are beautifully decorated, and kitchen worked perfectly for our mostly outside party. Location is very convenient, and the lake view a nice bonus, highly recommend.

Hobbit Hollow is fabulous. We loved the home and the setting. Everything was as advertised. Such a wonderful spot in beautiful Skaneateles. We'd love to return.
We got married at HH and stayed there for a few nights with close friends. We couldn’t have hoped for a better place to stay. We can’t wait to come back and renew our vows!
We stayed here for Syracuse graduation weekend. We wished we had stayed longer! The property is amazing and had plenty of space for all the grandparents, parents, and siblings. There's a gorgeous view and every amenity that we could have wanted. Thank you!

This place is amazing - maintained incredibly true to its style, clean & very functional. The property is amazing as well. You cannot go wrong with a stay here. We had everything we needed - from kitchen to outdoor gathering space. Highly recommend!
The home was incredibly charming and we had such a great stay. It is a short drive to downtown and has beautiful views of the lake from multiple rooms. There is ample space for multiple families and the home is well equipped. The property management was extremely responsive and attentive during our stay. We would definitely recommend this home.

We stayed at this beautiful farm over Easter. Was a great way to have our son and his friends have a home cooked meal over the holiday.
Looking forward to renting again.

Hobbit Hollow is a great place for a family gathering. With 6 bedrooms sand baths, a series of gathering rooms, a large dinning room and kitchen, it is ideal for a gathering of family. There is also great outdoor spaces for hiking, eating and cooking outside and enjoying the outdoors.
We'd love to do it again.
Our third year and we're planning to come back again. Comfortable, clean, and convenient to everything in Skaneateles. An amazing house--even better than the pictures.
We loved our stay and would highly recommend - beautiful property, very comfortable beds and large living spaces. Great communication and support when needed. A dream!
