Gentlemen's weekend

A great place to be in the late fall - 1mi from LaSeurre and Weis and ~15min to Hammondsport. The deck is fantastic, nice bedrooms, solid kitchen and wow! - what a wall furnace!!! There were three of us and it worked out perfectly all around. Check in was a breeze - the welcome cookies and bottle of wine were fantastic! 10 out of 10 across the board - we'll be planning another visit here in early spring for sure.

Ladys trip

Our overall experience was wonderful. The cookies and bottle of wine was a nice welcome touch. Shona was very pleasant and extremely helpful with suggestions for breakfest and dinner options. The listing was everything it said. The view was absolutely beautiful. It was chilly for this time of year but the rental was cozy warm. We will definitely be back. Thank you!!!

Felt out of place

We had to provide our own sheets. One of the breakers would constantly go if we tried to use the air conditioner. Only lighting in bedrooms was a lamp and one of the bulb was out. We ask for a new one but never got one. No lighting in kitchen. Told we could use any of three decks but ours was the only one available to us. Also our deck had a lot of briar bushes. Just felt we didn’t belong there. Would not stay there again.

Pleasant stay

Owner was very nice, leaving wine and cookies for our arrival and recommending local restaurants and wineries. Overall home was very nice. My only suggestions are 1) to replace old very uncomfortable mattress(s) and noisy frame. 2) have yard maintenance being done between check-ins. Heavy weed maintenance with power equipment was done on hill off of deck chased us inside off deck the first morning, second morning was awakened early to mowing outside bedroom windows. We were checking out at 11am. Should have been done after check out.

Lovely stay at Keuka Lake

We initially booked to take our teen boys and grandson over memorial weekend but had to change at the last minute due to a family emergency and the host Shona, was so gracious. As it was booked all summer, we changed to Indigenous People's weekend, but our boys had commitments so we asked adult family members for a winery weekend instead and changed from 4 nts to 3. Shona promptly refunded the one night. The home was clean and well maintained. The patio facing the lake was wonderful. Plenty of chairs to sit and enjoy the gorgeous fall foliage. It was too cold to Kayak, but perhaps next visit! Shona was so nice and had delicious cookies for us upon arrival and a bottle of Keuka Lake wine!. She was only a text away if we had questions. Everything we needed to cook our meals was available in the kitchen. Her beautiful home was directly next door to the cottage. They also have a sister rental cottage next door to the one we rented for those who have more family members. Overall a lovely time was had by all.

Lake house made for a nice relaxing weekend visiting Keuka Lake wineries and microbreweries.

The cabin and property was in a great location right on the lake. We enjoyed the kayaks and a campfire at night. The only criticism would be there was only a very small space to sit by the campfire and the gas fireplace inside had a strong gas smell.

Great Lake Cottage for a Long Weekend

We had a wonderful long weekend at the cottage taking in the beautiful views of Keuka Lake and wine tasting. The checking process was easy and they even left us cookies and wine which were both delicious! The kayaks were a nice bonus and we went out a few times. Host was very friendly but left us be which was a great balance. As for the couple of reviews that they didn't like the place, remember you're booking a lake cabin not a hotel room at a lux resort. If you're cool with that you'll have an amazing time. We plan to come back next year for longer.

Awesome Experience

We were so fortunate to find Shona and Tom through a VRBO listing. They are the most kind and genuine hosts you can ever ask for. They live on the same property and were always a yell or text away to answer our questions and to help get our boat to the launch and tied up to their dock out front of the cottage. Rent it if its available You won't be disappointed.

We had an absolutely amazing time. From Shona greeting us upon our arrival with fresh baked cookies to the access to the water right down the back stairs, it was a perfect weekend getaway.

the owner and the neighbors added a charm to our vacation

I would give my stay 10 stars if that was an option we felt very comfortable staying At this location, the owner was very easy going and a sweet heart, they have everything at home including all small details (it feels like home). my friends took too long to come back when they were kayaking and the owner was worried and he was ready to take he’s boat to look for them. they have 2 kayaks available to guests, 1 single & 1 double. Also a paddleboat & a paddle board. The cottage does have a gas grill on your deck. You don’t need a tank as it’s piped into natural gas. I’ll always arrange my vacation to this place based on the dates they have available. I’ll never look for a different experience at this location See you soon!
