We had an amazing time at the cottage. Such a relaxing setting. Joy was a wonderful host and the property did not disappoint at all! We will be back!

This is our 4th annual trip to the Finger Lakes region but the first time staying in Waneta Lake. The property is beautiful and spacious with a nice open concept that is perfect for families to spend time together. The floor to ceiling glass windows allow for a perfect view of the lake and the amazing sunsets regardless of how chilly it is outside. Being able to walk out a few steps and fish was a huge plus for us. Communication with the owner is great, she was very responsive. The only thing I wasn't used to is bringing my own linens and towels, unless I'm camping that's not normally something I need to worry about. We also ended up buying a bath mat. We had a great time and were very comfortable!

Perfect just what we were looking for. Cottage was immaculate, fantastic patio and view. We highly recommend staying here, Joy was very friendly and checked on us after we first arrived. We for sure will keep this cottage at the top of list when planning future vacations.

Joy was a pleasure to work with! The house was beautiful/spotless & had everything we could need. The view was gorgeous! The water was perfect for our young girls to enjoy without worry. We were able to get in our kayaks easily. Neighbors were friendly and the area quiet and peaceful. Thank you for the blessed week!

The house is located at the end of a shared stone driveway and has a beautiful view across Waneta Lake. My wife and I wanted a house that was close to some of the waterfall hikes, breweries and wineries in the area. We loved our hikes and exploring, but also looked forward to returning to the house in the secluded and peaceful setting. Each morning we sat in front of the large windows overlooking the lake and watched as daylight slowly started and the birds began to fly up and down the lake.

Joy was great to work with - she answered all our questions and met us when we arrived. The cottage was a perfect location to all the things we wanted to do in NY. Her place was one of the cleanest we've stayed in as well. And the view is beautiful!

My husband and I spent 4 nights here. Lake view was beautiful and the space was very clean. We had a lovely time exploring Watkins Glen, Letworth, and just relaxing at the lake. Joy was very communicative and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed or provide recommendations.

Loved the open concept of the common area. We all very much enjoyed our stay at this home! Very peaceful and quiet dead end road right on the water! We enjoyed the fire pit as well.

Cottage is kept well and very clean. Communication was very good. This place is near cities of Hammondsport, Penn Yan, Watkins Glen, and Ithaca. Don't forget to see the amazing falls/lakes of the area. I would rent this cottage again.

My fiance and I stayed here for a week and throughly enjoyed ourselves. Whether just being in the house overlooking the lake, swimming in the lake or traveling to the many close, local venues we felt like we truly experienced the finger lakes. Joy was always available to help with anything; the house or local attractions. I'd recommend this rental to anyone. The view are unbeatable.

We had a wonderful experience renting a vacation home from Joy. The home was everything we expected and more. It was clean, well-maintained, and in a great location. Joy was very responsive and helpful in communicating with us before and during our stay. We are looking forward to going back next year!

My husband, 2 boys, and myself had an amazing family vacation at the cottage. We swam, fished, had fires (with smores obviously), played games, paddle boarded, and generally just enjoyed sitting in the Adirondack chairs which were very comfortable on the deck over the lake anytime of the day. We also explored some of the area's wineries with favorites being Weiss and Barnstormer, went hiking at Watkin's Glen gorge and Taughannock Falls, and enjoyed too many breweries to name!
The cottage itself was very clean and had a well outfitted kitchen. It was very open and airy with great views of the lake. Wasn't a big deal for us, but you do need to bring your own sheets/towels and drinking water (water itself is fine for showering etc, just has sulphur taste/smell that you don't want to consume much of). Joy communicated with us very well even before our stay answering all our questions and during out stay gave us some great recommendations.
I have three recommendations for future guests. The first is that there is a Dollar General store just down the road that is very convenient for forgotten items, food, etc (or bribes for your kids when you take them to wineries all day). The second is to hit up the Waneta Lake Boathouse restaurant. They don't have a sign on the road, but food (pizza especially), drinks, atmosphere, and service was great although check their hours ahead of time. The third is that firewood is easy to get at any number of near roadside stands ($3-5 per bundle).

Joy was the best host and the time at the lake was amazing. The home is so clean and open with breathtaking views from the patio. The kids loved swimming and fishing. We will definitely be booking again.

We enjoyed our week long stay. This comfortable cottage has a nice open plan with full length windows overlooking beautiful Waneta Lake. The boathouse deck was also a nice feature. The pictures show a true representation of the property. We also enjoyed the location as nearby attractions were 15 to 30 mins. away.
Joy made communication and check in very easy.

We had a very relaxing stay at Joy's cottage which was tucked amidst the trees, with a panoramic view of Lake Waneta. The cottage was immaculate and Joy's attention to detail in terms of providing the guests with all the amenities was very thoughtful and appreciated. Just shows how super efficient she is as a host. A place that you would want to visit again and again.Thanks a lot Joy for also going above and beyond to answer all our queries promptly!

We had an amazing visit on a beautiful October weekend when the fall foliage was at it's peak. Just sitting on the deck and taking it all in was so relaxing and rejuvenating. The view from inside was just as nice. The house was open and airy and immaculately clean and just 15 minutes from the charming town of Hammondsport which could easily be right off the set of a Hallmark movie!

The house was great, very cute with a great view of the lake and nice location. Everything was clean and check in was easy. Joy made it a very smooth process and we would definitely stay there again.

It was worth it to me when my wife said Oh Wow when she first entered the house. the wrap around floor to ceiling windows and the wood ceiling really make this a beautiful spot get away.

The property was beautiful loved staying here! We only wish the weather would have cooperated more so we could have enjoyed the deck.

super clean and nicely decorated. Met all of our needs. Perfect for 2 couples to get away for a few days. Short drive to lots of wineries and restaurants.

I walked into this beautiful property and felt serenity and warmth. The huge windows in the living area provide a panoramic view of the lake by day, and by night the moon with its long reflection on the lake. The view from the patio was even more gorgeous. The outdoor table and plentiful chairs were very comfortable. The chairs on the side patio were perfect for my aging back.
The host responded quickly to my queries, and was very friendly when I met her. The house was amazingly clean and nicely decorated. The queen beds were firm and comfortable. I will come back to
this perfect getaway.

Beautiful stay at the lake!
My parents and I enjoyed a wonderful week in the cottage. Everything was exactly as described, and we enjoyed beautiful views on the deck. We could see fish jumping out of the water! The location is very convenient to wineries and to Hammondsport for restaurant options. Thanks to Joy for making us feel welcome!

A great girls' winery weekend
I can't say enough about the cottage or the owner Joy...both were great! The cottage is just as wonderful as it looks in the pictures and the views are spectacular. Joy was a pleasure to deal with and very helpful. She even stopped down after we arrived to make sure that we had everything we needed. I would definitely stay there again. Thank you Joy for sharing your wonderful cottage with us.
