Outstanding

Planned a quick family long weekend and could not have picked a better house. Amazing home from decor, comfort and amenities to the amazing views. Best we have stayed at - and we’ve been to more than a few. Would give 10 stars if I could!

Family Vacation on the Lake

Excellent house in a perfect location! House was super clean and as exactly described in the listing. Kitchen was well stocked with all pots, pans, utensils, etc. that we need to cook family dinners every night. Neighborhood was also very quiet and owner was very quick to communicate all needed info. Enjoyed the view off the back deck - especially the sunsets. Perfect place for our family to come together and make good memories. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in the area.

Stay at Pillar Point

We stayed at Pillar Point to view the eclipse. This lovely lake-side home was spacious, clean and well-appointed. The deck, picnic area and fire pit area provided us with room to be outside and with beautiful views of the lake (and sky). Our host was responsive and accomodating. I couldn't be more pleased.

Our stay in Dexter NY

The property was clean and well kept. We were visiting family in the area and location was close by. Owner was attentive. We had a fairly large party and waited until check out day to clean the towels and sheets. The dryer did not dry the clothes as quickly as we had hoped on the quick dry setting, so we had to hang towels and sheets that were not completely dried so that we could get everything done before we checked out at 10. I would just suggest to any future renters to do the towels prior to check out day so they don't run across the same problem and leave the sheets for the day of. Other than that everything went perfectly.

Enjoyed our stay!

House is beautiful! House was stocked with everything you can think of! Communication with host was great! The only complaint would be trying to get all the bedding and towels washed before checkout. When you utilize all beds, that’s a lot of bedding to wash and dry before 10am checkout. Not to mention washing all towels in the morning after showing. Just makes for morning checkout a little stressful.

Beautiful Home on Lake Ontario

Our family (7 adults ages 17-82) had a wonderful week at this home. Beautiful kitchen and appliances with very large table for games and puzzles. We popped up a camp chair we bought with us to accommodate 7 seats. Owners have thought of everything. Colander, big mixing bowls, leftovers containers, mortar and pestle, sifter, grater and measuring cups. Fire pit is beautiful and the deck is wonderful to watch the sunset. Neighbors are very nice and lots to do in Clayton (research Clayton Chamber of Commerce) and the Watertown area. Wise Guys restaurant was a real treat (make reservations). The lower level master is spacious and comfy. However it is not easily accessible for seniors (which the pictures do show). All beds are comfy cool gel memory foam. Lots of bedding, towels etc. Our wifi access was good and we even used the printer for game rules. The owner’s communication is perfect. Thanks Andy & Michelle for sharing your home. Lots a laughs and memories made.

Best Family Vacation!

Home was wonderful! We are a family of 7 and there was plenty of room for all of us. We all had an amazing time, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming. Home is located right on the water. Views and sunsets are breathtaking. We cooked out on the Grill, had a bon fire and made smores. Played corn hole. And much more. The home is located close enough to Clayton and Alex Bay. This is now our favorite place to be. We will definitely be returning. Host was wonderful. Thank you for sharing your place with us.

Awesome Property Right on the Water

This is an awesome property. It offers absolutely beautiful sunsets each evening. We are already looking forward to going next year. We had beautiful weather. We caught pike, bass, and perch. The water is unbelievably clear. The property is super clean and the owners just did major upgrades to the inside of the property. The outside is so pleasant to enjoy and very inviting. We spent a lot of time outdoors. The property is very well equipped inside and out. They have literally thought of everything to make your stay as enjoyable and stress free as possible. There is plenty of parking for 2 cars/trucks and a boat trailer. We docked our boat at the marina down the street at the advice of the owner because storms can roll in very quickly. The owners were very easy to deal with and communicated check-in and check-out instructions very well. They checked in a few times to make sure we didn't need anything and were enjoying our stay. You will not regret staying at this property! It is the nicest VRBO property we have ever stayed at. 5 stars.

Beautiful, Calm, Relaxing & Fun -wrapped in one

The owner was incredible at quickly responding and over all communications. We arrived and everything was as expected and even better. The home is Very Clean, updated to meet any need you could imagine. The decor just added to the charm of the home. Sitting on the deck everyday, just taking in the view would have been more than enough. However, its perfect distance to all activities from shopping to white water trips. The owner provided more amenities than I've ever seen. There were even extra toys such as kayak, paddle board. He also has a Jet-ski that we were able to rent and the boys had a wonderful time. We wanted for nothing, except to maybe never leave :0) I can not recommend this home and owner enough, truly a wonderful time. I'm sure we'll be back

Beautiful stay on Pillar Point

Communication with Andrew was easy. He was pleasant, kind and very quick to respond. The house is lovely and extremely well stocked and clean. The view is spectacular. One suggestion for those who are technology challenged like us! Please leave written, detailed instruction on how to program the heating/air conditioning system! It was a bit tricky. Also, the stairs/steps inside and outside could be a bit dangerous for young children and some seniors. That being said the house was perfect for us. We are already booked for August and next Thanksgiving! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Believe the great reviews!!

My word, where do I start? Communication with the owner, Andy, was EXCELLENT. He was always within reach of my phone text. At one point I looked in vain for an iron and an ironing board and asked him where they were. He said "I failed". The next day he sent me a text with "Package on its way". I texted him: "You didn't!" and he texted back "I did!". An iron and and table-top ironing board arrived the next day. Enough said. There were no fewer than 7 chaise lounges (maybe 8), an amazing and comfortable fire pit (fully stocked with many, many logs), an indoor fireplace stocked with logs, all the dishes, silverware, glasses, DECENT-SIZED coffee mugs, but alas no wine glasses except 3 'balloon-goblets' but I had brought with me 7 flutes for the champagne since it was a celebration week for our daughter's engagement. There were casserole dishes, 3 mix/serv bowls, cookie sheets, coffee maker (no electric kettle - brought our own), We did not dine out even once but then we're both cooks/pastry chefs. There was one huge white serving platter which I used for two nights - perfect. I brought two more platters and was glad I did. The beds were AMAZINGLY comfortable. My husband and I had the downstairs en suite bedroom and loved it although the bureau drawers would never close without work - no big deal. There were TONS of paper towels, toilet tissue, cleaning supplies absolutely everywhere, shampoo (at least 3 or 4 different brands), soft soap, oh my I could go on and on and oh yes, a DRY MOP!! Be still my heart! Rentals never have dry mops so when we rent in the U.S. and can drive I always bring my own but had forgotten it! Andy had it as well as a broom. I could have used a short-handled brush to go with the broom but whatever. It was great for cleaning. My only regret is that as careful as I was with the coffee table (big and on casters!) was that one night after our guests there were white spots on the dark wood from the coffee cups. I was mortified! I used mayonnaise to get rid of the spots but I could still see them when we left. Again, so horrified. The sound downstairs of the waves (on a lake!) lapping the shore was amazing. Sunsets beautiful. Daughter used the SUP, future son-in-law used the kayak, husband fished. It was idyllic, walked up road to visit the goats and ducks (out gate, turn right, half mile on left) so sweet! PERFECT!! GREAT RENTAL and we're at 40-plus rentals in US, UK, France, Italy, NZ, Caribbean...

This was our second time staying here and some great improvements were done since our last stay. Perfect size for my family and has lots to offer for all ages. Love being able to sit on deck having my coffee every morning and sitting by the wonderful fire pit at night with a glass of wine. Owner is very responsive and helpful.

Perfection

We stayed here for a week for my son’s wedding. I cannot say enough about this property! They thought of everything. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need... just like home. Absolutely beautiful home inside and out. So much room to entertain... we had loads of family and friends in and out. Kayaking fun and fishing off the dock... couldn’t ask for more. We were so sad to leave this beautiful space but so very thankful to have enjoyed time there. Thank you for sharing your home with us... it was such a huge part in making the wedding week special.
