Great, peaceful location with a lovely view
The house was beautiful and functional. We loved the deck and spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying the lake view. The hot tub was a great bonus. We had everything we needed for a peaceful stay.
This was our second time staying at the Hilltop Retreat. The house is spacious - enough room for my family upstairs and my sister's family downstairs to spread out. We love the large open living room and deck for sitting. The hot tub is amazing. Everything was clean and comfortable and we hope to return again!
Love love this area and the home/property. We fixed dinner at home 2 nights and ate out another. Kitchen was nicely stocked. The view of the lake and the western view made for stunning sunset pics. We would definitely stay here again!
The property was perfect for our family with lots of space and gorgeous views. We appreciated all the thoughtfulness that Jason and Emily put into making the home comfortable and enjoyable. We’d love to stay again when the weather warms up!
Property was clean, communication was great, everything was as advertised in the listing, a wonderful stay, would definitely stay again!!!

Beautiful property!
Jason & Emily were great hosts and we had a wonderful stay. The property was very clean and well looked after, it had everything we needed. It was such a nice peaceful retreat and getaway.
We stayed at this property to celebrate my two best friends that are getting married. It was in a great spot, very beautiful and perfect for what we needed.
A blizzard rolled through during our stay which made fire awesome views the next day. The woodstove kept us all super toasty and the kitchen had everything we needed!

Girls weekend
What an amazing weekend at the Hilltop Resort. The owners think of the smallest things to make you as comfortable as possible. The property is beautiful and the hot tub was so relaxing.
We were so happy to return to this BEAUTIFUL property this time with our besties! STUNNING sunsets and BREATHTAKING view! We all enjoyed time in the hot tub and appreciated its proximity to Beak & Skiff for their Summer Concerts!
House is very nice and decorated well. The views cannot be beat! Owners are responsive and understanding.

Just What We Needed
The house was wonderful and just what we needed. Three generations of family could stay together when in town for a college graduation. Everything was organized and the house was beautiful.

Quiet, Peaceful Getaway
Wonderful stay in the mountains for our girls weekend. Beautiful and clean home. We only had one issue where the power went out (this was the whole town) and the owner was VERY responsive even though it was early in the morning. We would love to come back!
We had a wonderful stay at the Hilltop Resort & Spa near Otisco Lake! The house is beautiful — the living spaces are incredibly comfortable and made it easy to relax and enjoy our time together. The outdoor areas are just as impressive, with plenty of space to spread out, unwind, and take in the stunning, peaceful view of the lake. It’s a very quiet spot, which made it even easier to truly unplug and relax.There are a couple of good restaurants nearby — we especially enjoyed The View and The Loft — and if you’re looking for even more options, Skaneateles is not too far away and makes for a great day trip.The owners were fantastic — very responsive and accommodating from start to finish. Any questions we had were answered quickly, and they clearly take pride in making sure their guests have a great experience.We’d definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful, comfortable getaway with incredible lake views. We hope to come back again!

Our 2nd FIVE STAR STAY!
We returned here, this time with our Besties couple, because we LOVE so so so many aspects of this property from the STUNNING VIEW to the well-appointed kitchen! We greatly appreciate that there's 2 bedrooms with King size beds AND the privacy of separate floors & separate bathrooms!!! We thoroughly enjoyed the main attraction, the hot tub, of course! Our friends enjoyed the wood stove keeping us all warm inside. Did I mention, this place is dog friendly offering multiple size crates AND dog bowls!!! We also LOVE the proximity to Beak & Skiff, cute local towns to explore, breweries, wineries & cideries! If you are considering staying here, go for it!

Peacefull and beautiful
It was a hot week in June. loved the place and views. Kitchen upstairs a problem for my wife and sister in their seventies.
Need another zone to spread cool to upstairs. Loved the well water. I live on a hill at home with well water and cant stand
city water. Roads were fantastic with no traffic, although it is a long way to anywhere. Only 5 of us were able to make it, but was a good time.
