A group of us stayed at the chalet for a mother-daughter weekend at the beginning of June. The home is beautiful and spacious. It is extremely clean and the kitchen was fully stocked. I had forgotten to bring a grinder for my coffee beans and filters for the coffee machine and had despaired of finding either, especially the grinder, in the kitchen but I was wrong. Both were stocked. The sink in the first floor bathroom was slow draining and when I informed Paul he sent someone right over to take care of it. Check in instructions were very clear and sent to me in a timely manner. I highly recommend renting this home. You won’t be disappointed

This house was a perfect home base for our family Finger Lakes vacation. Plenty of room (and bathrooms!), the BEST stocked kitchen I've ever seen in a rental like this. a great location, and a pickleball court! We would definitely stay here again!

Thanks for the kind words. We love the place and are so happy to share it with our guests. Yes the pickleball court is fun.....but the teenagers will tell you it's a basketball court and our little ones know its where they ride their Big Wheels. Can't wait to have you back next year.
