Relaxing and Spectacular!!

We stayed at this property for a week in 8/12 with 2 adults and 2 kids, and will be back next August!  It is a beautiful location, and the cottage itself is very clean, comfortable, spacious, and has everything you could possibly need. Our only issue with the cottage and grounds was our difficulty in trying to decide which of the numerous cozy spots to have our morning coffee!  The large well maintained grounds were ideal for playing with the kids, and the views are spectacular.  Also nice is the fact that the property is level and there are no steps to the dock, which is often an issue in the finger lakes.  You would have a very difficult time finding a more beautiful rental property, with super nice owners I might add, anywhere in the region.

This is by far one of the nicest, cleanest and most confortable house we have rented. The view is breathtaking specially when the sun rises over Seneca Lake. We enjoyed the fire pit outside and the fireplace (real wood) inside on the colder nights. The only downside was having to leave.

This is the first time my husband and I have been to the Finger Lakes and how lucky we and another couple (good friends) were to find this gorgeous home. It had everything a person could need or want for the most beautiful and relaxing vacation ever. There was no rushing to go anywhere. Everyone slept as long as they wanted and the others who were up sat on the deck and enjoyed the beautiful lake or fished until the others woke then we'de all go out on the pontoon boat we rented and enjoyed the lake, sun and awesome scenery. We visited many wineries, gift shops, and resteraunts that served the best food anyone could ask for then when done it was back home, every night, to sit around the fire pit and talk about our day and laugh like crazy about old times and our friendship with the great friends we were with. We plan on visiting again and will not stay at any other home but this one.

We stayed here for the easter weekend in April 2012. The house was incredibly clean, cozy and comfortable. it was fully equipped with anything we needed. The weather was a bit chilly in April but the outdoor patio and firepit areas were too cute not to use. We lit a nice fire, and grilled all weekend as we enjoyed the fabulous view of the lake, wine in hand. The house is located next to some very nice wineries- Monello is our favorite. It's only a couple miles from the house and has some of the best reislings we've tasted. It's a must visit! It is also close to the town and the owner gave some great information on where to get groceries etc. We are already planning to return to the house and recommend anyone looking to rent, do so immediately! It's a great house in the middle of a great location. enjoy.

My husband and I have been coming to the Finger Lakes for 15 years, staying in different houses. This is the house we want to return to!! We travel with our dog, Lexi, so the dog friendly quality of this house was important. The house was very clean,neat, well organized and exceptionally well stocked. Everything they said was provided was actually there in sufficient supply. We liked the way the bedroom section of the house can be closed off with doors from the living area. The living room was spacious with comfortable furniture, decent lighting, and room to move around. The yard and outdoor space was even better than the pictures show. Unfortunately we only had two warm days during our week so we will just have to come back to enjoy the outside living spaces! Beds were comfortable, hot water was plentiful, neighborhood was quiet and peaceful (we were there in April). I felt safe in the dark at 5:30am walking the dog! We can't think of a single thing we needed which wasn't provided! Excellent, excellent house!!

Just returned from a long weekend for the wine and chocolate tasting. This property was an excellent choice. Perfect location for visiting the wineries and for relaxing! Very clean, had everything (and more) that was specified on the website, quick communication with the owner, spectacular view! We will certainly stay here again so we can enjoy what is offered in warmer weather!

We have just enjoyed a fantastic long weekend in this beautiful home...and a home it is. The owners have thought of everything to make us feel welcome and provide the finest of experiences. We, two couples, spent the weekend visiting the unexpectedly fine wineries of the Finger Lakes. This home was not only located right on Seneca Lake but within a very short driving distance for all the wineries. The home is large and beautifully furnished and we enjoyed every minute there. Thank you!

We just returned from a one week stay at this wonderful vacation home. This home is large, clean, comfortable and close to many area attractions. The yard provides a gazebo; pavilion; two grills; firepit and so much more. The owners have even provided outdoor sport equipment. There are many great restaurants and wineries in the area to visit. The owners, Chris and Peter, have provided a wonderful home away from home. And, our Lhasa Apso, was very happy too which is very important. We've booked for 2012.

Rarely does one find that pictures of a place are "true" to reality when they arrive at the actual location. However, I have to say that we were not disappointed in the cottage and grounds. We find that Homeaway attracts great properties.
The toughest part of vacation was picking the spot for morning coffee, Reading and cocktails. Bad weather? Enjoy the covered areas.
Lift your head in the A.M. the Sunrises over the lake... Wow
The chef here enjoyed the outdoor kitchen areas and a nicely supplied kitchen.
Wine! The best wine was found at the top of the hill. We came across a cheese trail, What Fun! Chris was very helpful in helping us with restaurants, However, we chose to eat in the whole week. We would rent again if we came back to the area.
