Perfect spot on Cayuga
We loved our stay in this beautiful and comfortable home! The house was clean, bright, and comfortable with easy access to the lake. My husband enjoyed taking out the kayak and fishing off the dock, and I enjoyed drinking my coffee from the deck with incredible view of the lake with our 2 month old daughter.The house was well equipped with everything we could have needed. We would love to come back in the future. Thanks for having us!

Lovely Lakeside Home
The best feature about this home is that the back porch connects via a gently sloping stairwell to a private beach on the lake. The views from the porch and beach are beautiful. The private beach has a firepit and plenty of comfortable lounge chairs surrounding it. There is also a picnic table for eating. There is an adjacent large shed storing kayaks, paddles, life vests, noodles, & wood for the firepit. The main house has a renovated 1st floor with a fully-stocked kitchen and lovely living room, master bedroom, bathroom, and laundry room with modern washer and dryer. The temp in the home is very comfortable with the AC units and multiple ceiling fans. It is important to clarify that the upstairs consists of only 1 bedroom, but the open space from the top of the stairwell to this bedroom contains a full sized bed and a twin bed - loft style. The guests who sleep in these 2 beds will not have guaranteed privacy (no door to shut) and will also hear anything going on, or people talking, on the first floor. There is only 1 bathroom, which can be tricky if multiple guests, although the bathroom was lovely - renovated, large, shower accessible for a disabled/elderly person (built-in seat, many handlebars). There is no dishwasher so we found ourselves washing a lot of dishes since we cooked meals. I want to acknowledge how attentive Joelle was. We had a question re: a streaming service and Joelle responded promptly, even coming over to directly help us.

My family had a great time. Wonderful location and beautiful view of lake. Owners lived next door and were very accommodating! It was summer like weather so perfect! Boys went trout fishing on the lake and had a great experience. Kids hung out at rental and we snuck in a couple wineries. Also, took advantage of a hike with the kids at nearby state park. Would definitely recommend!

Park next to the door, unload your car, then take a short walk down steps to the beach. Kayaks, fire pit, dock, skipping stones. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Be sure to visit Myer Distillery!

Perfect lake getaway
This property was perfect for our group (4 adults and 3 children). The house was well cleaned, spacious with an open floor plan to allow us to spend quality time together. Everything you could need is provided. We only needed to pack cloths and food. The beach is perfect for young children to swim at. There was no seaweed to swim through and only a slow slope. The steps down to the lake were safe and not steep as many homes on Cayuga lake are. The owners were very helpful to us when assistance was needed. I would absolutely book this home again in the future and recommend to all.
