Great location and very quiet. The house was comfy and the amenities were appreciated. Being right on the lake was amazing and the provided kayaks were wonderful to pop out on the lake at any given time.

The house was in a perfect location for our girls wine trip. Booking and checking in was easy. The street was quiet and peaceful. We were able to have a boat pick us up from the dock. The weather didn’t allow us time to enjoy the outside amenities, but there are kayaks for use and a fire pit. Excellent stay that we all very much enjoyed! The house was clean and ready for our check in.

Finger lakes region is a unique place with plenty to offer. This lake house was clean updated with all lake house essentials kayaks, floaties and barbecue grill. Located central cayuga wine country between downtown Seneca Falls and Ithaca. Would stay again.

The house was the perfect location for our Finger Lakes vacation. Being right in the water made for beautiful views morning and night, as well as easy access to the water to kayak and swim. The house had everything we needed, including chairs to use on the deck and at the water's edge. After exploring the Finger Lakes during the day, we enjoyed coming "home" to the lake house.

My husband and I decided on a last minute honey moon. Our only regret was not staying longer! We had so much fun visiting tons of wineries, sitting by the lake and fishing, and just relaxing! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful property with us- we will be back!

Six adult women friends slept comfortably in this house for a long weekend. The full bathroom on first floor had a great shower and was roomy. Most of our awake time was spent traveling to various wineries and breweries in the area. There are many! We walked to a couple nearby. It was a bit windy and cool so we didn’t get to enjoy the deck and fire pit as we would have liked, but the kitchen table offered a nice view of the lake. The neighbor was friendly and checked in on us upon arrival. She gave us extra coffee and filters, but we did find filters on day 2 tucked away in a drawer. I, personally, would have enjoyed staying an extra couple of days to further explore the area. Would definitely choose this house again.

Lovely house that was perfectly appointed for us. Clean, fun, not too “precious” with delicate things everywhere. Weather was beautiful as was the view property managers were over quick to fix a leaky pipe and a hornets nest.

Duck In was absolutely amazing!!! This beautiful home with everything new and updated was the perfect place for a weekend of fun with family and friends!!! We toured the wineries and this location was perfect!!! Quiet dead end road. The interior and furnishings are newer and comfortable. Kitchen had everything needed to cook, bbq and entertain. Lower level new with comfy twin beds and a couple beds with trundle pull outs.
Gorgeous, views, walkout access to lake from the lower level to fire pit, nice gravel entrance to water for kayaks, nice dock and easy water access, nice clean area of water around the dock. The views from main level are amazing, beautiful deck with newer nice deck/patio furniture. Kayaks were nice and life vests provided in various sizes.
Would definitely rent again, hopefully during summer months to the enjoy the perfect swimming area.

Our cottage stay was wonderful! We stay in the FLX once/year and this was one of our favorites! Very comfy cottage - with a beautiful and well appointed kitchen ( we cooked dinner in 3 out of 4 nights) and the deck was perfect for hanging out and having dinner on. We enjoyed every part of the cottage. Can't wait to have the opportunity to go back.
