The property was very cozy: our group enjoyed the space it allowed us to visit together vs separate hotel rooms. Our destination, the turning stone casino, was a short distance away. Would definitely reserve again

Loved everything about the place. It worked well for us staying close to Colgate and casinos. We were in for football weekend of Syracuse vs Colgate. The only thing we would change is there is no TV channels We are a big college football family so wanted to watch games. We streamed games over our phones and projected to TV using WIFI but had trouble connecting.

We stayed here from out of town during a very sad family event. My two reasons for booking this property was safety for my family, and cleanliness. It was 10/10 reviewed for both… so of course, We booked. I know things are never “perfectly” cleaned, however, the property was not cleaned or sanitized.. the host had it ready before check in which is appreciated but not at the expense of a proper cleaning.. I told him not to rush and if it was ready before check in, Great, but no rush. Missing fitted sheet in master bedroom, so we slept on the mattress cover, dirt on the walls from food and other things. Hairs left in the bathroom sink, bath tub has dirt on the walls, crumbs on the counter. Kitchen sponge used and old, kitchen sink was never cleaned, fridge and freezer and crumbs, vents super dusty, cob webs and I can keep going.. but the biggest safety concern was the DRYER! We left at in the morning with the dryer running on more dry, and it was still going when we got back 12 hours later… our clothes were ruined, lint was everywhere in the dryer, in lint trap and on clothes. When I told the host about this concern he acted like he KNEW, and said he needs to put a note on it for people to use a different setting.. I’m happy my family and I were not in the house when the dryer was running..

Perfect for what I needed

House was very nice. Clean. PLENTY of amenities. It was literally 3min down the road from the venue of my daughter's wedding. Almost exactly half way between my kids homes too. Was bitter cold most of the time we were there but didn't notice it at all inside the house. Would definitely stay again if the right circumstances arise. VERY happy with the whole experience.
