Classic 1950’s cabin charm
Loved the location and private access to the lake. Sunrises on the porch with coffee were unforgettable. 1950s charm with modern amenities, can’t beat it. Loved the original front door and rotary phone, a step back in time. Steps not a problem, just a little extra exercise. Clean and comfy. Only notes would be to replace the couch (seems well loved) and address the subfloor in the bathroom by the shower, but not deal breakers. Will stay again!

Trip to Finger Lakes
The property was as described, it is a great lake front cozy house perfect for a couples or solo trip. The one downside is the 70+ steps to get from your car to the house. Otherwise, it had everything I could’ve needed. The bathroom was a little outdated with a shower that could use some love. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get away for a trip. It isn’t too far from lots of different places to spend the day.

Peaceful
We booked with the intent of simple relaxation and this place delivered. Natural foliage provided privacy so it didnt feel as if other places were on top of us. Small, cozy, simple, it was just what we were looking for
