We loved our stay! We especially loved the big window lake views from the living room. The downstairs game/lounge area was great for hanging out.

We faced multiple problems with the property at check-in. We attempted to contact Vacasa (the property manager) and was sent to a switch board stating they would let the local property manager, who never called us back as promised for our problem. We were also told a maintaince man would be sent to the property by the switchboard but, the maintenance man called us back hours after check-in and stated he would not be coming to the property and instead would request that we get a refund for the amenity charge. We were happy with this but then the day we checked out we called again in attempt to get ahold of the property manager in reguards to our refund for the amenity charge. We were STILL unable to get ahold of the property manager but the switch board stated that they put a note on our file stating they would not give a refund for the amenity because a maintenance man was sent to the property (who never actually came). I asked the switch board if there was a number we could get ahold of the property manager, since we hadnt heard from the property manager at all in the the three days we attempted to get ahold of them, and they stated no. We ended up not having the amenities we wanted for our stay, and wasting alot of time and headache being on hold attempting to get ahold of the property manager thay we never ended up hearing back from, along with our problem not being resolved. In short, the property was not what it was promised to be and much more headache than it was worth

We've been coming to the Finger Lakes for 13 years. Last year, the house we normally rent was sold and we needed to find a new one. This home did not disappoint! The location was perfect, the view was incredible. We spent a great deal of time in the game room after touring wineries all day. It was perfect. The heated tile floors were a nice surprise as were the adjustable mattresses. The house was clean on arrival and stocked with all the things we needed for a weekend with friends. Instructions were easy to follow and timely. We were very pleased and would absolutely recommend a return visit!

The house is amazing! Right on the water and very clean. Just enough wineries within a close distance. Five minutes from gas station, pizza place, and adorable restaurants. We really can't say enough about our stay. The owners keep everything in fantastic shape. You won't be disappointed!

The property is roomy and offers many amenities. The location is perfect. Right on the lake and close to town. Not noisy from road travel. The issues that we experienced were: spotty internet connectivity. If you need to connect for work while on vacation this may be challenging. Also, the tv's did not connect for viewing. We worked around these issues, but they were issues. In the future if these are addressed, the property would be 5 stars in every category.

The home and property is as described in the listing and much more. We appreciated the attention to detail and had everything we needed for an amazing stay. Great lake view! We spent the majority of our time on the deck and down by the lake.

Property fantastic fit for family. However it was Infested with bees on lower level making that space unusable for 2 days to sleep or enjoy game room. Grandchildren bitten… safety hazard and response took 2 days. The manager stated it was an ongoing problem. I have photos which I would like to share with owner. It certainly was a disappointment!

We had a great time on our vacation on kueka lake. The house was nice.
Pros:
Lots of room for our group. Right on a beautiful spot on the north end of the lake. Having a dock was wonderful. The heated floor in the basement bathroom was nice touch. The basement gameroom with the dart board and arcade games was awesome. 2 refrigerators! We used the basement wine refrigerator for the wine we bought at the nearby wineries.
Cons:
The wifi was very spotty. Many times we were unable to find a signal and we continued to need to sign back in throughout the day. Best signal seemed to be in the basement. Unfortunately, there were bees in the basement that impacted our use of the space. We called about the bees on our first day and someone came out promptly. Told us what they thought the problem was. May have added spray caulk outside. And left us with bee spray. We sent an additional text and phone call next day when the problem persisted but did not hear back. Looks like there was a nest or an opening in the basement utility closet. We killed and vacuumed up at least 200 bees!
Overall, good stay. Would stay again if we knew the bee problem was fixed.

We had a wonderful stay with three generations. One floor living for grandma and room for everyone to spread out. The lake view is amazing and the fire pit was great sitting on the shoreline. The house had so many amenities. No detail left untouched! We will be visiting again!

Great location, just far enough out of town to avoid all the hustle, but close enough for great food. View is fantastic. Excellent parking area, especially for touring motorcycles. Cottage very tidy, comfortable and relaxing...

Our family loved staying at this property. The views were gorgeous. Lots of things to do close by to keep everyone happy. House was just as pictured, but better in person. We would love to stay here again the next time we are in the area.

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. Everything was as lovely as the photos and very spacious. The main living areas and bedrooms are on one floor, so I think would be good for anyone with mobility difficulties.
It was cold during our stay, so we didn't get to enjoy the patio, but spent many glorious meals gazing out onto the lake from the beautiful picture windows. My kids loved the arcade downstairs and the comfy easy chair for reading. The kitchen had all the necessities, but could use a few additional items. The only downside was before the trip I couldn't figure out how to communicate with the property owners/managers. Whether to do so through VRBO or the Vacasa platform. In the end it was fine, and we got the access code the day before on time. We did have a possible issue with the diswasher leaking, and I got a pretty prompt response when I texted Vacasa.
Overall we had a wonderful time, and I'm hoping we can return to this house sometime for a reunion with family.

Beautiful home with a great view of lake from living room as well as the deck. Watching the sun set was simply beautiful. Great game room with plenty of games for entertainment for all. So many great wineries to visit on Keuka lake. We visited a quaint little town with a town center that reminded me of the show Gilmore Girls. Would like to try and go back during the fall season. Would definitely recommend this home for any family or group to gather and enjoy each other’s company.

We had a wonderful stay in Penn Yan at the house by the lake. It was very clean, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable! The bed and bedding was very cozy, the kitchen was well equipped, and the family room downstairs was really fun. We were a little disappointed that the fireplace did not work. It was probably something little, because the pilot light was on, but the fireplace would not turn on. The other thing was, they didn’t have cable. Just smart tvs, which were great for streaming, just no local tv. We enjoyed everything else, and the area was great. We texted the company and they replied right away regarding the fireplace and also trouble with the TV. The one night it snowed, and for some reason the TV in the basement would not work. All the bedrooms had TV’s and ceiling fans. The bathrooms were very nice too. All in all, we had a great time and would definitely go there again. I’m sure it would be fabulous in the summer!!

We loved staying here! The house was larger than it looked in the photos and it was very well stocked and supplied. Some highlights were the heated tile floors and adjustable beds. The house is located very close to Penn Yan and an easy drive to nearby wineries. The views of the lake from the upstairs living room, dining room and kitchen are excellent. It was an easy walk down the flagstone path to the lake. Having a second kitchen in the downstairs Rec Room was so convenient when watching TV there. Overall, we had an excellent stay and hope to return in warmer weather!
4.0
Pros: Great lakefront amenities (brand new kayaks, grill, dock, fire pit, etc.); updated basement with arcade games for the kids; heated floor in laundry-room and downstairs bathroom; looks like new carpeting and mattresses; location was essential for our purposes and worked out great.
Cons: Hot tub was drained and turned off - appeared to not work (despite being included in listing); downstairs shower did not drain properly; AC for upstairs kids room very weak and room becomes heat soaked easily; downstairs door leaked during a rainstorm mid-day halfway through our stay - was able to clean up easily with towels.
Overall good stay.

Beautiful home with comfortable seating, cozy beds, and other homey amenities. The views of the lake were stunning, and we were blessed with fabulous weather for our trip. We didn't begin to have time to do everything we wanted... wineries, breweries, movies, museums, hiking, quiet family time... a week wasn't nearly enough. We will have to return!

Just as pictured! The house was clean, spacious, and cozy. Beautiful property & close to many attractions. The basement is a great addition & makes a nice hangout area. The lights around the lake at night were breathtaking!!!! Wish the hot tub worked, also wish that there were more cleaning products stocked for wiping down table/counters. Overall really enjoyed our stay and would recommend!

My wife and I had a perfect stay at Keuka Vista—the location was great, with beautiful views of the lake and the convenience of Penn Yan facilities only minutes away. The cottage was clean, in great condition, and had everything you could want for a stay. We felt guilty that there were only two of us, since it could easily accommodate at least 6 or more, but it was nice having it to ourselves. Sitting out back was peaceful except for the road noise, which you quickly tune out. We would definitely rent this property again.

Keuka Vista was very nice. , roomy, great view of lake. Downstairs family room was a nice addition. It exceeded my expectations. Would definitely recommend this property and return another time.The repair man that came to fix the shower rod was courteous and helpful. The other couple that came with us enjoyed the place and felt it was comfortable for the four of us.Nice family rental. Good experience .

This beautiful home is well stocked with everything you will need for a great vacation. the accommodations are superb including something for everyone in your party. The game room downstairs is fantastic, the waterfront is gorgeous, the views from the house are superb.
FYI: If anyone in your party is stair challenged, there are 42 flagstone stairs down to the lake front. The pictures do not accurately reflect the number of stairs. For most people it is not a problem. They are not steep ,but there is no railing and they are not evenly spaced.

We stayed here for a week long family vacation, and could not be happier with the stay!
The house is clean and deceptively large, with plenty of room for everyone. The furnishings are new and well suited to the home; creating a relaxing ambiance. The house is very near to Penn Yan which made any trips, shopping or dining a breeze. It sits on part of the wine trail which makes for convenient day trips to the wineries.
The house has plenty of parking and a large yard. The elevated deck overlooks the dock and lake. There is a shaded patio area near the water, and a fire pit where we built many fires. The dock was great for docking and storing our rental boat.
The house was well appointed with everything needed to cook (if that is your preference), with plenty of tables and seating both inside and outdoors. There is a nice game room with foosball, an electronic dart board and video arcade useful when we needed a break from the water. We saw one comment about it being too hot in the upper bedroom, but there are fans and an air conditioning unit up there so it was quite comfortable; and the place the kids liked hanging out.
Overall we had a wonderful week and are looking forward to returning again!

This house was a wonderful fit for our family trip. Our kids (5, 7 and 9) had a blast fishing, swimming and playing the arcades downstairs. The house is lovely, updated and has super comfy beds. We had a blast swimming in the Seneca Mills waterfalls 10 min from the home and touring a few of the close wineries. Thanks for the great trip!

We loved our stay and all the personal touches. The only complaint was a lack of a fan in the loft area rendering it unusable. If not for that, it would be 100% highly recommend!
