Cozy and quiet. Tucked into the woods with a pond full of singing frogs. Cabin was clean and well equipped with all we needed for a long weekend. Bed was comfortable.We enjoyed nearby Corning Glass Museum and Letchworth State Park.wish the windows had screens so we could have had them open since the weather was cool enough.

Very peaceful, quiet, and private place to stay. The cabin was clean, stocked with towels, bedding, TP, and all kitchen utensils/pots and pans. Would love to stay here again, and added it to our favorite places. 2nd time staying with this host, (1st time was a different property) and would not hesitate to stay with them again. We had a hiccup or 2 with the TV/wifi (not the hosts fault, it was the provider) and the host was on top of it, doing their best to get it resolved for us right away. Loved the fire pit, the outdoor space, including very comfortable table and chairs. There were not a lot of bugs, so even when we were outside after dark, we did not get bit by mosquitos. The local residents were very friendly, waving if they passed us when walking in the morning (and almost NO traffic while doing so). Cannot wait to stay here again

Lovely

This is a beautiful peaceful cabin in the woods. My husband is from this area and we came up for his dear mom's funeral. We have a sweet dog so we needed somewhere that would allow for our fur-family. This was a comforting calming place to hang our hats and leash. Thank you to the owners.

Everything thing you need.

It was easy to find, Its private but not as secluded as i was expecting but it was still perfect, The set up is convenient and the bed was really cozy, I just sat at the fire pit til late so i didn't use the TV, The frogs are crazy loud in the pond and the stars at night are Beautiful, Me and my Dog would definitely stay again.
