Easy in, easy out.

Most excellent

We stayed here for three nights in later July 2022. The location is very peaceful and the views from the deck in the evening were beautiful. We kayaked a bit, explored the region a bit, read a lot, and just relaxed. The owner was very communicative and responsive. I'd definitely recommend this rental if you're looking for peace.

What a nice little place. It was just the two of us. We were literally right on the lake. Sitting out on the deck in the evening, watching the sunset as well as sunrise was super relaxing. John was GREAT to communicate with. I called him quite late one night and he responded with a text within 10 minutes. Very friendly too.

Beautiful house right in the lake. Quiet — peaceful — so relaxing watching the sunset at night, or enjoying a nice cup of coffee on the deck in the morning while watching all the activity of the lake.

It was just the getaway that we needed. Very chill place away from suburbs. Great view of the sunset. Everything you'll need besides linens is there. Will recomend.

Very peaceful vacation spot.

We had a very relaxing and wonderful vacation at John’s place. The lake view is a little slice of paradise. We spent so much time outside and enjoyed the view. Our girls had so much fun fishing and kayaking. The host, John, is so kind and is prompt in responding through texts and phone calls. It is a bonus that he has kind and friendly neighbors who helped as out as well. Thank you John for sharing your home to families like us to create lasting memories.

This property matched the listing exactly! It is so beautiful, the lake is peaceful, and the sunsets are stunning. We had a great time staying here. You feel very secluded, but are close to amenities. The owner was very helpful and considerate. I highly recommend this rental!

Small but efficient cottage. Nicely landscaped. Owner was there with his large, friendly dog when we arrived. Showed us the workings of the camp. Wonderful porch with table and chairs and a sofa, with large windows overlooking the lake. The deck provided another table with 6 chairs, 2 loungers and a grill. But the tank ended up to be empty and although we put the new tank in place, we could not get it to work. Owner had told me he was surprised it lasted so long. I think owner should have changed the tank before we got there and ensured it worked. The cottage is directly on the lake. Two docks. two kayaks, too bad we had rain. Livingroom had 2 large comfortable sofas, they left minimal room to move between them. Nice coffee table. TV is Direct TV. A list of availabe channels with thir numbers would have beeen helpful. The bedrooms are very small. Mattress was comfortable but it did not have a plastic protector on it to ensure cleanliness between guests. Kitchen had enough supplies. For what we paid the linens should have been provided. It would cost less than $100 to purchase them. 2 sets of everything would allow for the owners to rotate between guests. Major inconvenience. Used fans. Porch window air conditioner worked but could not climb up to get to living room one. Bedrooms need window air conditioners. Moving the porch standup fan to out side of the bedrooms provided little air movement. Trip hazard as the extension cord for the master br came from the hall. It is not expensive to move the outlet to the bedroom. The Bathroom had 1 roll of toilet paper for the week, when we had expected our son and grandson to also join us.. We had to purchase more. I would line all cabinets and shelves with washable contact paper to ensure cleanliness. The bottom of the shower was rusty and ?moldy. Only 3 parking areas for ourselves and guests. All in all, the location is fantastic on a lake I grew up on. Great memories. It is on a bay which provides sheltered swimming. Great location, great views of sunset. Some inconveniences which are easily improved. Enjoy.

This was our second stay at John’s cabin. We had a wonderful time. Everything was great! Thanks again!

This is a marvelous for a quiet, relaxing get-away. We kayaked and sat on the deck quite a bit. Of course, there was TV and A/C (thankfully) indoors and internet access in or out. Easy to pick up dinners at restaurants in Valatie. Try it if you like the quiet!

John was a super responsive and helpful host! He answered all our questions promptly and gave us good advice on where to go to eat in town and spots around the lake. We had a great time fishing and caught many different types of fish including: small mouth bass, pike, yellow perch, white perch and calico bass. If you plan to fish bring the surface lures since the lake is shallow in some places. This was also a wonderful lake to learn how to kayak since the lake is very calm and there is little traffic. I loved having access to the two docks as well, one for each of my kids to fish from! The cabin is setup very nicely and the couches are very comfortable. Thanks to John for sharing his home and giving us this opportunity to my family to have a great vacation!

We had the most wonderful time. The house was well-equipped, with plenty to do in the area. The view was unbeatable- we spent all of our time in the three season room or deck overlooking the lake. It couldn’t have been more peaceful. Hope to be back again soon!

The general lakefront experience is what you want in a vacation on the lake: The deck is great, the view is breathtaking, the lake is awesome, there's lots of fish and overall we loved the view and the lake. The sitting areas are comfortable, otherwise has it's pluses and minuses, some things can use a little attention, but doesn't detract from enjoying this camp at the lake! Thank you for sharing your home.

Such a nice place for our family to spend quality time together. We didn’t even mind the rain. John is a great host.

Place was clean, easily accessible and right on the water. Has one neighbor to the left who was super friendly and gave suggestions for places to visit. Very quiet and set back into a cove. Didn’t swim as there was quite a bit of tall grass in the water immediately around the dock, but used the floats I purchased (donated to the property) and the kayaks. Celebrated Father’s Day by grilling out and enjoy the beautiful view. Will definitely keep in mind for future vacation spots.

John is very responsive and detailed in answering my questions. The property sits in front of the lake with an extraordinary view of sunrise and sunset. Kayaks are available to explore the lake and go fishing. The kitchen is fully stocked with necessities. Overall, great long weekend so hope to be back again. Thanks, John.
