This is such a beautiful property - I almost don’t want anyone else to know about it so I can keep it my secret! The photos honestly don't do it justice. Check in and check out was seamless and the house was very well stocked and super clean. The playroom was a great perk too!

It was clean & view was picturesque - house was accurately depicted. Lake access was a good, but would have preferred closer. The water pressure (it would switch to very hot to very cold) when taking a shower was an issue - our only complaint.

We had a wonderful stay here. The house is beautiful and the view from the kitchen and living room windows is amazing. It was nice to have a bathroom for each of the three bedrooms. The kitchen was gorgeous and had everything we needed. The outside area is large and the walk to the lake was no trouble. We enjoyed sitting by the lake and also the use of the kayak. We will stay again.

Great property just outside of Aurora

Large, clean home with a beautiful view of Cayuga. Lots of room for our extended family and a short drive from the Inns of Aurora where we attended a wedding. Large property with lakeside grill and fire pit. Nicely appointed kitchen and very comfortable beds. Would stay there again!

Very clean and comfortable. Peaceful and private setting with outstanding sunset views from the house or lakeside beach. Well equipped kitchen. Two first-floor bedrooms each with their own full bathroom was perfect for two retired couples. Highly recommend this property.

Nice Retreat

This house was perfect for my girlfriends and I. The bathroom to bedroom ratio is perfect, we were able to make home cooked meals while we stayed, and there was plenty of room to hang out! I wish we had taken advantage of the waterfront fire pit, but we will save it for next time!

Weekend of Joy

Came to Aurora for a family wedding and this property was just what we needed! Home was beautiful and comfortable for all. A perfect place to relax when not at the wedding festivities. Panoramic views are stunning and the best for enjoying morning coffee and watching boats and wildlife. We only wished we could have stayed longer - highly recommend!
