Brant's Apple Orchard was an ideal location to view the eclipse - very quiet and tranquil setting, no crowds. The house was very nice for me, my husband, and our two adult children. Only one negative: the deck area (which was otherwise lovely) had not been cleared and I had to spend the first half hour of our stay sweeping off the leaves and branches that had fallen during the winter.

The Sansa was well-appointed and very clean. There was a lingering musty odor which we resolved by opening windows. Please be aware that the property does not supply shampoo or bath soap/gel, so be sure to bring your own. Makeup remover cloths were provided, which was a nice touch. We enjoyed our stay very much!
One of our family members had a birthday. This was the perfect place for outdoor space. Everything was very clean. Looks exactly like the photos. We had both cottages which are attached. I’m not sure how comfortable we would have been if the one cottage were rented by unknown parties. Definitely recommend for a family event or friends getting together. Host was extremely responsive.

We really enjoyed our weekend stay in the Sansa Suite! The location is quiet and beautiful. Walking the in the orchards was an added bonus! The place is spotless clean! It's decorated so nicely and modern but so comfortable. It has pretty much anything you could need on a trip. Better than staying in a hotel. Owners are quick to reply and are very friendly. We will definitely be going back! No more than a 15-20 drive to the beach. The perfect get-a-way spot!

The home is beautiful! Clean and bed was super comfy. The house is located on an orchard, which was great for walking around. I would highly recommend.
Stayed at property for a girls getaway weekend. Loved that the rental was on Bryant's Apple Orchard . It was a unique experience staying there. Was nice to walk around the property after the orchard closed at 7 PM. We stayed in the Sansa Suite. Unit was very clean, kitchen and bathroom were well stocked . Loved the outside patio with a fire pit. Host Brian was very accommodating .Close to winery's and the lake. Would definitely stay there again.
We were very close to the orchard store but when in our accommodations you would not know it. Very private hidden by trees. We had our own little private deck with grill and on shared with the cottage.
We wanted to change our dates and there was no problem. Manager was quick to answer and make the switch for us.
We are planning another stay in the future. Highly recommend!

Very nice location for the covered bridge tour on motorcycles. Really enjoyed the location and atmosphere
Cabin was spotless and amenities were great - beautiful setting also! Loved having the market so close; loved walking the property; loved the cabin. Will definitely come back next year!
The owners were very detailed and informative. Our stay was nice and pleasant. The only thing none of us liked were the lack of window blinds/curtains on bkth sets of French doors, windows, and front door. It gives an unsettling feeling when attempting to sleep. But that's an easy fix and may not bother other visitors! Thanks again, everything else was perfect.
Overall very good experience. Nicely renovated. Would recommend a few hooks in bathroom for towels. Also, since there is only one bathroom, would recommend a mirror in each bedroom. Only other recommendation would be better than 1-ply toilet paper....I hate that stuff!
Very peaceful setting, the suite was very nice with a cozy back deck. We had a very relaxing getaway with some friends. Easy access top the orchard Market was a plus. Owner was very responsive
Our stay at Brant’s Apple Orchard was amazing...not only was the Orchard a beautiful site but the suite was clean and comfortable! We enjoyed fishing and s’mores by the fire...it was the most peaceful vacation thus far! The owner was very prompt in response to any of our questions or concerns! We will definitely be vacationing there again!
Good place to stay for the weekend, but could use tweaking
We couldn’t figure out where the trash was supposed to go, perhaps a map would be good. The place was well stocked, maybe a few extra towels. The bathtub drains extremely slow. Lights in main living area need dimmer switch, not enough light in places, but too much in others. Not enough light in the bathroom and consider ceiling fans in the bedrooms they get extremely stuffy. Get better septic toilet paper, even the 5 yr old complained 😃. The pathway to the pond needs trimmed back if you’re able. Thank you for renting to us!
The house was great! We enjoyed being on a beautiful property with a view of the pond and apple orchard. The owner was responsive and very nice to work with.

Why they chose this property
A stay at the Cortland Cottage or Sansa Suite is a completely unique opportunity to stay at Brant's Apple Orchard, the areas #1 fall attraction. Your stay includes full use of the 80 acre property including the orchard, walking trails, vineyard, pond. During the fall season, you'll be steps away from the market and bakery to enjoy the tastes and smells of fall.
