Fun family spot

A great place to stay close to the Stow Bemus Point Ferry. Check ferry hours as they don’t operate daily, even during summer season. Otherwise a perfect relaxing getaway that was close to the Allegheny Parks as well as Chautauqua.

House worked for us overall! We loved the location, walking distance to the Stow Ferry and ice cream were definite perks. Central to most activities at Lake Chautauqua! With a toddler that likes to play hide and seek and play on the ground, we wished it would have been a little cleaner (dust covering fans and blinds, dirty socks from walking around, and the shower didn’t drain well). With a good deep clean, this would be 5 stars! Appreciated the firepit and wood!

We rented the two houses together with my in-laws. They were clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. An ice cream place and convenience store was a quick walk up the road. All in all, it was a perfect little getaway.

Thanksgiving stay

Used this house as our night time spot while visiting our family for Thanksgiving weekend. It was the perfect little place for our family to relax and sleep and my three year old keeps asking me when we can go back to "the flat house". She called it this because it's all on one floor which she's never experienced before
