Leaving “Sun kissed and Rested”!
Just the place to stay to feel pampered! They have everything from toothpaste to sauna. Kayaks and paddle boards …oh my. Hot tub and comfortable beds. Guest house and dock. VERY Classy and comfortable. My husband and I are in our 70’s and we could get around with ease. Walked right to the beach without having to worry about stairs. Perfect for a large group or small. Something for everyone! I sure hope we will be going back. Host are very responsive. Learned a lot of history.

Reunion with Friends
Wonderful time with friends! House was perfect… lots of spaces for enjoining the lake and views while chatting with friends, sharing meals… as well as great spaces for quiet time alone away from the group for quiet relaxation. Everything was immaculate, clean, convenient, and comfortable! Local activities were great (for those who for some reason wanted options other than swimming, kayaking, beach time, floating in floaty’s)… wonderful museums in Auburn, and not too far from the Corning Glass Museum which is world class. Wegmans grocery was nearby. And so much more!!!

Owasco lake getaway
We had a wonderful family vacation at the lakeside luxury house! It was spotless and had everything we needed. It was well supplied beyond our expectations including towels, soaps and personal items. The outdoor amenities were great! Plenty of outdoor seating in a quiet area of the lake! We got alot of use out of the kayaks, SUP, and canoe! Plus it is only minutes from Auburn or Skaneateles! The house is tastefully decorated and we all appreciated the welcoming touches, flowers, fruit salad, s’mores, fresh orange juice, water, and ice! By far this was the best lakeside rental we have stayed as a family!

Wonderful Family Spot
Heidi and Chris’s place was more then perfect for our family vacation. They were very responsive and accommodating. It was fully stocked with all the little things you forget to bring. Which was a huge plus! Not to mention, the home was very clean, comfortable and the landscaping is gorgeous. You will not be disappointed. We hope to visit again soon

Slice of Heaven
I can’t express enough how great the house is. Quiet and private road, with an amazing view. The house has all the bells and whistles, and the property owners (Chris and Heidi) are beyond accommodating. Thanks again for having us! See you again next year!

Great Family Weekend
This house is everything we expected it to be in more. The owners were very attentive, and provided much more than just a house for the weekend. Everything was clean, I would even say, spotless. The owners replied to any questions we had within five minutes. I would highly recommend this house for anyone for your family or friends get away.

Perfect lake house for family celebrations
This lake house is situated along the shore of Owasco Lake and is perfect location to unplug and enjoy the tranquility of the Finger Lakes region. The property offers spacious amenities, with an unparalleled view overlooking the lake. Outside of the house offers a hot tub, sauna, fire pit, and dock, perfect for bonding with your travel partners. While the house is in a somewhat remote region, it's still accessible via car to nearby towns - only 45min from Ithaca, for those traveling for graduation celebrations as we were. Heidi and Chris were excellent hosts, going above and beyond to ensure all of our needs were met. Only downside was the water might have been slightly overtreated during our stay, so consider picking up a few gallons of water on the way in. Overall, this property is amazing and you will not be disappointed.
