This is one of those rare instances where the photos don’t do the property justice. Keep in mind; the photos are beautiful. 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, two kitchens, three large living spaces…and a loft. The Lakefront Lodge is without question the best place I (or any member of my family) has ever stayed. Stunning. You first realized this as you pull into the driveway. The exterior is gorgeous with a view of the lake behind it. You open the front door, and it doesn’t take long to see the main floor has everything. It includes three bedrooms, three baths, a spacious living room, intimate loft, mudroom/utility room, kitchen and dining room. Clean, upgraded, and state of the art. This place is a show piece. The views of Lake Chautauqua are as good as it gets. …And then there is the walkout basement. …which includes two bedrooms with 3 beds and a daybed, two baths, a large extra kitchen, and two massive sitting areas. It out classes most rental properties on its own. Overall, everything is new or recently updated. The kitchens have every amenity you could possibly think of. We had no problem preparing meals, and there were more than enough cooking utensils, plates etc. for all. This property is full of all the “the little things” that make it a home. Games for the kids. Interesting coffee table books. State of the art TV’s. A fully stocked K Cup Maker and Espresso maker. The bathrooms are stocked with towels of every size…and plenty of them. Have you ever been someplace that you wish had more hangers? Not here. I enjoyed walking down the long back yard to sit on the private dock for some quite time each morning. We didn’t stay long enough to enjoy the powered gazebo, or the fire pit, but plan on doing so on the next trip. All this said, it gets even better. You will not find a better host than Michelle Jungquist. She was so accommodating and helpful when it came to every question I had. She made me feel welcome and treated me as though she’s known me for years. She made the experience even more special than I could have imagined. I am so grateful for her hospitality. Well, I think it goes without saying that I am a huge fan of this enchanting home. It gave my wife and I a chance to spend some quality time with all three of our children and their significant others in a one-of-a-kind environment. I hope to make this a tradition for years to come.

Me and three of my friends had the best time here. So roomy, clean, comfortable. Just perfect! Gorgeous view of the lake from almost anywhere in the house. Comfortable beds, cozy furniture. A well stocked kitchen to cook in. Michelle was so helpful with ANY questions we had. Such a wonderful place to stay. I very highly recommend!

We loved staying at this serene property on the lake. The house is simply in one word, Gorgeous! It was a much needed retreat for our little family gathering. The house is so conveniently located between The Village of Mayville, CHQ Institution, and Lakewood we had everything at our finger tips. The weather turned cold so we didn’t get to do the outdoor water activities (kayaks, jet skis, paddle boat, yerf dog and dirt bike), but the house was perfect for us to hang out inside, cook our meals in a wonderfully stocked kitchen with a Coffee bar, which has a Keurig, a Nespresso maker, and an old fashion drip pot coffee maker. Our host made sure to think of everything incase we had forgotten something…even as small as cotton buds! Really liked the furniture and the decorations. If you love waking up to insane sunrises from your bedroom window this is your place to stay, we will be back!

We loved our weekend at this beautiful cabin! The kitchen was well equipped, the beds were super comfortable, and the communal spaces were thoughtful and inviting. The interior design gives the place an upscale lake house vibe we liked. The views of Lake Chautauqua were a highlight for us - especially the sunrises. We stayed in April, but had it been a bit warmer, we definitely would have taken advantage of the deck, big yard, and lake access! Overall, we really enjoyed this slice of heaven on the lake, and we definitely plan to return!
