We stayed here for our wedding weekend with our groomsmen and friends. The property was beautiful and the game room/bar/theater was fun to hang out in. Sitting on the porch in the morning with coffee was relaxing. We were too late in the year but I love that you could use the dock and bring your own boat.

Great family stay for Syracuse graduation

The house was a short drive from the Syracuse campus. We enjoyed the beautiful views and comfortable rooms. Beak and Skiff was very close by and made for a great afternoon outing! Wish we had more time to enjoy the area!

The place was fantastic. Clean, very fully furnished and the hosts were quite responsive. It was the perfect mix of quiet and accessible- 15 minutes from the quaint Skaneateles tourist areas but more private. Wineries may take a little planning with most 30-60 minutes away but it is the perfect relaxation getaway. Sissy’s Pizza just up the road is amazing.
Sunsets will actually lower your heart rate!
