My family booked this home after it checked our boxes for a centralized location to visit our family and friends in Central and Western NY, and space for some restorative down time. We were pleased with the property and what it offered. Our group of 5 adults and 1 infant fit comfortably with room to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils to prepare and enjoy meals with the lake view. We would book this place again.

Water can get rough during storms. Deck needs some boards replaced and the apple tree it attracts a lot of bees. The house itself was very nice and close to many amenities shopping, parks etc.

The home is well maintained and clean. The house has a/c which was unexpected. May have recently been upgraded. The wifi/internet access was horrible. With only one TV in the house, it should be upgraded. The steps going to the 2nd floor are a bit steep and could be an issue for some as there is no toilet upstairs.
Green space at lake front was great. There was like an underwater beach area. All the large rocks were removed so it was easy to walk around in the water. There is some lake grass floating around so bring a small rake. An elevated train track in front of the home is still active, but train only comes by twice a day. Kids will enjoy counting the cars as it passes. Grocery store in Auburn is 15 minutes away.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will probably rent again in the future.

Well stocked kitchen.. very clean cottage. The only things that were bothersome was the very musty smell with air conditioning and the sewage smell outdoors.

Our family enjoyed the stay. We stayed just a long weekend. The weather was great which added to our enjoyment of the property. Enjoyed the wineries and had a great dinner at fall 84 in Seneca falls. The tunnel was a little challenging w our kayaks. But we took them off b4 and walked them to the house. Lake views and sunsets are spectacular. Not a great swimming area - too much sea weed
Enjoyed the deck and yard for some good corn hole games.
House and kitchen well stocked.
Great house and stay. Ty for sharing.
