The house is beautiful, clean and cozy. Our boys (3 and 6) were in absolute heaven with the bunk beds, board games and toys. Daily canoe rides on the lake to look at fall foliage and then evenings by the cozy fire. Beds and linens were very comfortable!

This house is perfection. The hosts were amazing with communication. Always answered our question in a timely manner. The house is beautiful and right on the lake. The house is on the clear side of the lake, meaning no seaweed. You can see straight to the bottom and perfect for swimming. We LOVED out stay and would love to come back.

Great stay!

Great stay in such a gorgeous house on the lake! The area is beautiful and the house itself had EVERYTHING we needed to cook meals and make drinks. I highly recommend staying here! House also has AC which owners were very helpful with (it took us a moment to realize the remote slides open but that’s on us). We went to copake winery and feast and floret for dinner- both of which were fantastic. Would come again!

Dreamiest escape

We had a wonderful stay at the lake house including canoeing, drinks by the fire, and plenty of darts and board games. The hosts specifically purchased a copy of the Splendor game for use during our stay which was greatly appreciated. Our son also loved the toys and the bunk beds were so cozy. Thank you so much!

Perfect retreat!

Everything was absolutely perfect. The communication with Vincent was easy, timely, informative, helpful! The house is the perfect lake getaway. Every detail was thoughtfully curated- nothing was missed. From the decor to the design, and everything in between- brilliant. A specific shoutout to the bunk/kids room. My kids entertained themselves for hours (without screens- tablets or television). The book collection for the kids was especially impressive- positively perfect! We will definitely return in the summer months to enjoy the lake!!

Beautiful, comfortable, happy

For an English family this was American heaven. The children ("kids") plunged into the lake on arrival and emerged only to eat, sleep or check their Instagram feeds to reassure themselves that no one was having a groovier time than they were. We explored (zip lining, white water tubing, Bash Bish falls) and cooked, played darts, lay in the hammock, kayaked. The cottage has everything - well, not a teapot, but everything else. Vince is courteous and thoughtful and clearly a Great Cook: an missing the larder stores already.

Stylish and Serene: Just Two Hours from NYC

As soon as we walked into this house, we felt like we were walking into a magazine spread. It doesn't surprise me that its sophisticated designs were featured in Country Living and The Wall Street Journal. But beyond the rustic chic decor, which will satisfy any art and style lover, there are incredible views of the lake out every single window. My husband and our two kids (10 and 5 years old) went on a chilly fall weekend, but there was still plenty to do: fire pits, reading by the French doors, pulling games from the owner's endless supply, cooking in their well-equipped kitchen, hiking in the hemlock forest, climbing a trail to a stunning waterfall. I couldn't recommend this house more!
