Amazing house, won't be disapointed

always rent a house Buffalo New york
Review Submitted: November 6, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
What a wonderful, warm, and cozy house, (not to be confused with small). If I owned this property I would never leave. I rent houses about 3 times a year and I was so amazed how every little thing you would need was waiting for you. The wood in this house is so amazing with the high ceilings and cozy beds and comforters. The porch area is my favorite, whichever one you choose.
The owners bent over backwards for us and our dates. Such kind and wonderful people.
If you are looking for relaxation and family time, this place is for you. My husband was a chef and had no problems in the kitchen, dish washer is adequate and not even worth mentioning.
The only negative I could say, would be that you can hear the traffic from the porch. But there is so much positive that it gets forgotten.
I spend a lot of time searching for properties and if you are like me, comparing different houses, save yourself a lot of time and headaches and just book this one, it is a wonderful vacation. We did a family vacation but it would be a wonderful romantic one also.
I could only imagine with the fireplace and beautiful sofas and rocking chairs how wonderful the fall and winter would be there.

Wonderful Retreat

Mom of Teenagers Princeton Jct, NJ
Review Submitted: August 1, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Visited with my teenage sons and my brother. This lovely home is very comfortable and has lots of amenities. The opportunity to get away from the TVs, computers and cell phones is priceless. I think we spent most of our time on the screened porch which is perfect for playing boardgames, cards and sharing meals and lots of conversation. Plus, the landlord is very flexible and accomodating. Enjoy!

Absolutely Beautiful. Loved this House!

The Adventure Seekers CANTON, MI
Review Submitted: July 18, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The description provided was very accurate. This house was very centrally located: close to the High Peaks area, yet also close to shopping and restaurants. It was very clean and well-maintained. Beds were very comfortable and we felt like we were sleeping in a cloud. The screened-in porch was perfect for dinners outside minus the mosquitoes. The mornings were a little cool, but the wood-burning stove worked very well and took the chill off. We've already recommended this property to friends and family. We want to come back here next time. We enjoyed hiking in the Park, rock climbing, swimming and especially kayaking. How convenient to have these portable kayaks to take anywhere! We also enjoyed Fort Ticonderoga one day. Sunsets from the porch were absolutely breathtaking. I just can't say enough good things about it.

The dishwasher is small, so plan on bringing paper plates so you don't have to run it after every meal. Cooking utensils, pots, and pans seemed adequate, except we still needed a very large bowl for mixing up a large batch of pizza dough. The outdoor BBQ is very nice and worked very well. Other paper supplies were very adequate. The upstairs shower controls were opposite of what they should be, but once we figured that out, all was good. Everything was above and beyond our expectations. We were very pleased.
