Everyone enjoyed this beautiful home check in process was great house was clean and fit our large group perfectly . We would definitely recommend it and looking forward to staying there again !
Fully equipped kitchen, enough sitting for our group of 13. There were only 6 Adirondack chairs by the fire pit with tables, but we brought more chairs. We have a fire every night, wood provided. Pet-friendly, fenced in yard. The 2 kitchens came in handy for all our food/beverage storage.
Beautiful home and well managed. Great communication with the owners.
We would love to return with friends and family to enjoy this property.

Thank you Scott for your wonderful review! We're glad you enjoyed your time here with family and friends. Please contact us if you'd like to stay again in the future. Debbie M
We had a great time at this location everyone had their own space beautifully decorated house in the woods!!Great kitchen stocked with everything you need to cook and socialize with your family. Close to the town and hiking trails. We would surely stay at this location again. Also the hosts are great very communicative and kind.
We are a group of women who have traveled together for 27 years. We have rented many homes during this time and this was one of the best!! The house was beautifully furnished, very clean and comfortable for our group of 10. The house is well maintained, inside and out. We enjoyed the yard, fire pot and patio. The communication's with Debbie was outstanding. She sent us detailed information before we arrived and responded immediately to any questions we had after we arrived. We highly recommend this beautiful home.
Great location with an awesome woodsy feel on the back deck. Fire pit was great!
Smooth as silk!

Hi Charles, thank you for taking the time to give us a great review! We're glad you enjoyed your time here with us. Please let us know if you'd like to stay again in the future.
We had a wonderful say at this home for a family reunion with three families and our adult kids. The six bedrooms and 41/2 baths gave everyone plenty of space, and the layout made it very comfortable for a larger group. The kitchen and bathrooms were all in excellent condition, with high-quality appliances and a well-stocked kitchen that had all cookware we needed. The beds were very comfortable , and towels provided were great quality as well. The only thing we would have wished for is complimentary shampoo and conditioner, which would be especially convenient for quests flying in from out of state. Other than that, we would happily stay here again.
This was perfect location and a beautiful house!! Very comfortable and easy! The host was quick to respond and helpful about the area. Would highly recommend and hope to stay here again. 5 couples and 5 cars, plenty of room for all comfortably! The house was very well maintained, no expense spared on design or accommodations!
Plenty of bedrooms, beds and bathrooms. Downstairs/walk-out set-up is very nice. (Note: A small set of dishes would have been nice to have downstairs.) Main kitchen had everything necessary for meals. Home was very clean. Location was pretty and secluded, yet very close to town.
This house is everything it says it is and more! Beautiful, spacious, and a great back yard for grilling, having a fire pit, and spending time together. Debbie was a great host, as our family and friends in our bridal party spent the weekend with us in this house. Skaneateles lake is just a few short minutes away. Would highly recommend this vacation home!

Thank you for taking the time to write some great reviews as you booked the multi-unit property! We're so glad everything worked out and that you were close to your wedding venue. You were great to host and we'd love to have you return in the future!
Our trip to Skaneateles was for our son's wedding at a gorgeous wedding venue there. The lodge was perfect for us and extended family. Plenty of inside and outside space at the home. Very private and quiet location. Town of Skaneateles was absolutely lovely, quaint, quiet, great shops and sight seeing. Lake was absolutely gorgeous. Wonderful memories were made and we can't wait to come back:)
Our family of 10 has been renting homes in Skaneateles for four years. Evan’s Lodge was the favorite. Well designed and well appointed modern home with a comfortable feel inside and out. And only a 5 minute drive to the lake for swimming at the public swimming dock entrance and nearby restaurants and shopping.
We loved our stay. The house was spotless and meticulously prepared. Picture perfect. Tons of room. Comfortable beds. Two kitchens! We will be back! Thanks
Wonderful fun weekend! House was totally accommodating for 11 of us girls. Great fall weather and good times!
The house is gorgeous, clean and has a very open floor plan to entertain. We loved it!! It was our third time staying here and probably not our last. We will be back:). Thx Deb
