Cottage condition

Overall, okay, but some qualifiers. Hot water temperature was very erratic, cold, then warm, then cold, then warm. Heating did not work in master bedroom. Window sash was missing in one window - only partially covered with piece of cardboard. No screens on main windows in living room and those areas were quite dirty. Not quite what we expected from the pictures, but overall, okay.

Family Wedding in the Region

Great place for family, with plenty of room for everyone inside and out: Right on the lake with a great deck and views from the living room. Other than the property being outdated as compared to many rentals, we were impressed with a clean property in proximity to everything the region offers!

Celebration

My family came together after being apart for over 10 years away from NY Keuka Lake. We loved the area- branchport has a wonderful souvenir shop, grocery, leather goods and large hardware store within 5 minutes where we were staying Penn yan was 6 miles and had a large grocery store, farmers market and pharmacy if needed. The area is still quaint and not populated with fast food places and truly country style living. Our family grew up around the lake and it was wonderful to be back and continue to enjoy its uniqueness Of course, the lake is crystal clear and absolutely beautiful. There were not too many boats on the lake and it was nice and calm.

QKA View - 7/31/21 to 8/7/21

My family (5 Adults and 4 Children, ages 13,10,8,1) were generally comfortable with the accommodations. The house was clean, but certainly could use some updating. The beds, with the exception of one, were adequate. The dining room table was a bit small for a group of 9, but we were able to manage mealtime, albeit somewhat confined. Parking was more than adequate with the 3 cars we had having easy access to enter and leave as needed. This was our fourth time staying on the lake and the first time on the bluff side. We truly enjoyed the sunrise as we are early risers. The view from the upper porch provided a great view of the lake. The tradeoff for that view were the 45 stairs (which was clearly disclosed in the listing) that were required to get down from the house to lake side. A few items that we encountered that if addressed would have improved the overall experience are as follows: • Many of the windows lacked screens and therefore opening the windows to allow the fresh lake air in was not an option. • The sink and shower drains ran very slowly resulting in water remaining in the basins for a period of time as it slowly drained. • The dock is in need of repair as there are areas where the boards are rotted and weak and the transition from the shore to the dock presents a tripping hazard. • The temperature in the lower portion (basement) area of the house could not be regulated and it seemed that the air conditioning was running constantly leaving that area very cold. • The listing indicated that a firepit was on the property but none could be found. • The bed, in the smallest bedroom on the first floor, provided no support and could not be used by even the younger children.

Cute Place at Keuka Lake

Great experience with this place and property management. Great location for many activities. Many wineries & places of interest to enjoy. Just a little disappointed on small waterfront area & no fire pit to chat around after a fun day on the lake.

Two weeks on keuka lake

The property is old and dated . The first level smells musty. Which is to bad because one of the bedrooms is down there .The view of the lake from deck was beautiful . The dock was a disaster. The front section fell off when my grandchildren were walking on it and the boards that held the ladder had to be bolted Down. Vacasa did come and put a temporary fix on it .They need a new dock . We did have a good time being out doors and on the lake . Don’t think I would rent it again.

Not again

First thing we come in and there is a door handle hanging off. One door knob comes off in our hands. The wood burning stove advertised is a gas stove that didn’t work and was never fixed for us. There was only two outdoor lights working. The dryer didn’t work . Sinks and tubs were clogged. Everything was dirty..walls, couch, chairs, floors. The deck outside the living room was always shaded because of the huge trees in front of it so we were always chilly and they obscured the view. The basement smelled musty so we never spent any time down there. When it rained the ceiling in one of the bathrooms started leaking. I called three times before anyone got back to me and nothing was ever done about it. So we will not be staying there again.

A sad neglected house with so much potential

The house was dirty and many issues with maintenance. The dryer did not work and the washer was dirty, and these were just the start of a very long list of problems with the house. Even though these issues were reported the day after check in, we and the problems were ignored!

The lake house was somewhat .However, it needs a great deal of updates. Furniture was dirty, some lights weren't working, dock has a cracked panel. It needs to be fixed, We won't rent again for many of those reasons.

Nice, but could be updated and maintained

The location and view are great. The lay out is nice and the decks were enjoyable. On the downside, the place needs a deep cleaning, made the mistake of looking under the master bedroom bed and was surprised to see an accumulation of dust and things from previous guests. There were three water glasses in house to sleep 8-12 people. Could not turn the light on in the dining room. A lot of little things. The property manager and owners were very responsive and fixed things as they came up but after the second time we just decided to make the best of it.
