Really nice spot. Not much reason to leave if you want to just decompress. The kids loved swimming in the lake. Kids can dip their fishing poles in off the dock and catch a fish in minutes. Great views and plenty of space. The bunk beds are a bit cramped but we made due. Overall I’d recommend this spot for a family with kids who love to swim. Bring your own floats.

I agree with others that the photos don’t give you a complete feel for the place. More spacious than I expected and the backyard is beautiful. Scott was a pleasure with which to deal

This is a very nice cottage on the lake. Clean, comfortable and gives a warm and inviting feeling as soon as you enter. Very peaceful and relaxing. No detail was overlooked. Had the pleasure of meeting the owner, and the neighbor. We would highly recommend a stay here. Thank you Scott and Michelle!

The owners take excellent care of this property and quickly repond if you need anything too!

We had a great week at this super cute cottage! It's in a very good location with close proximity to Penn Yan and all town amenities. The owners live next door and are very friendly, helpful people.
Overall, this cottage is very comfortable and well maintained inside and out. The outdoor areas are sharp looking. We loved sitting out on the lawn, deck or dock in the comfortable adirondack chairs, enjoying the view. Lawn umbrellas and picnic table were very much appreciated. You can swim off the dock or use the walk-in beach area. We enjoyed lounging in floats (bring your own) in the warm water, or paddling up the coast in kayaks we rented from Reagan's (they deliver directly to your cottage). Fire pit in the evening was nice. The yard, stairway and dock walkways are well lit for evening use. We didn't use the gas grill, but it appeared to be in excellent condition and a good size for bbq.
Inside, the main living area is very comfortable with excellent views and nice touches such as the wooden flooring, window coverings and a thoughtful décor that clearly has meaning for the family. Furniture is comfy, especially the sofa, futon and upholstered swivel chairs. There is streaming service on the TV, books, music and puzzles. Plenty of lamps for a cozy feel and lots of windows to bring in natural light. The kitchen is basic but well functioning and has pretty much anything you may need. We really appreciated having use of the washer and dryer. Beds are comfortable. The bathroom was nice -- they've really made the most of a small space and it doesn't feel small at all. The shower is very nice with great built in shelves and clever fold out doors, nice showerhead and hot water supply. Everything was spotlessly clean. We only used the A/C once or twice all week. The windows offer nice breezes and the roof fan helps to clear out hot air. Overall, a clean, cozy, relaxing environment. And we barely heard any road noise at all.
We enjoyed taking long daily walks on E Bluff Drive heading south of the cottage. Not much traffic, especially on weekdays. You can also walk (or drive) up nearby Culver Hill Road to top of the hill toward Skyline Drive for a beautiful view of both branches of the lake and lovely farmland/vineyards. Additionally, the farmer across the street sells firewood and has a little self-service (free) Reel Mower Museum in his garage.
Overall, a wonderful week and we would most certainly like to return!

Our family just returned from a week at Hall's Grape Escape where we had a wonderful stay! The cottage was clean and well kept, and everything was exactly as it was advertised. The neighbors were extremely friendly and very respectful of our privacy. The outdoor fire pit next to the lake was a perfect way to end a day of boating. The dock was in good condition and perfect for our 18' boat. Our family cannot say enough good things about the cottage and location, and we hope to come back and make some more incredible memories in the future.

My husband and I rented this property for our 25th anniversary. Everything about it was beautiful. Keuka Lake is beautiful and this property captured the essence of the lake. We did a lot of sightseeing in the area and loved coming back “home” to this beautiful place. The owner Scott was great. He was there if we needed anything but did not impose on us, even though he lives right next door.

Lovely cottage on beautiful lakefront property!
We enjoyed this beautifully maintained, very clean and comfortable cottage with amazing lake views and many outdoor accommodations such as kayak launch, dock, picnic area and swimming ladder! A perfect location for a peaceful and relaxing lake vacation! And it is only a ten minute drive to the Penn Yan village for shopping and restaurants! The owners are very welcoming, friendly and thoughtful and ensure the comforts of home are provided in the cottage!

Wonderful
This was a wonderful ,small cabin. It rained during our stay but Penn Yam was full of interesting shops and restaurants. My husband caught a fish during a break in the rain, easy access into the lake with our kayaks. We will be returning soon.

My Husband and I just returned a couple weeks ago from our first trip to the Finger Lakes. Hall's Great Escape was the perfect cottage for us. It was quaint, clean and had everything we needed. The cottage was close enough to where we wanted to be. We visited Watkins Glen and many of the Wineries in and around Seneca & Keuka Lakes. We loved how close the cottage is to the water and wished we booked our trip earlier in the summer so that we could enjoy more daylight time outside the cottage. Although, the scenery all around was breathtaking with all the Fall colors! Our only regret was not staying longer. We would definitely love to come back to Hall's Grape Escape!

Everything As Anticipated
We initially picked Halls Grape Escape because it is one of very few that offer both internet and washer/dryer. What we found on arrival was great, had that intangible "this is NICE" factor. All our needs were covered. Clean, well-kept inside and out. Owners provide very comfortable accommodations while maintaining timeless cottage charm. Hall's Grape Escape is in a peaceful Bluff location, also close to Penn Yan grocery stores and Seneca Farms! Municipal water source is a nice plus. Owners are friendly, business-like, and communicate promptly.

Great view, bright and airy
The cottage is exactly how the pictures showed it, bright and airy. Everything was clean and in good condition. The view on the lake was amazing all day and night. We enjoyed the local wineries, some historic buildings in Penn Yann and even a trip up to Niagara Falls. Super relaxing, can't wait to go back!

Quiet retreat!
We just returned from a relaxing 9 day pre-season retreat. The cottage was comfortable and very clean. We enjoyed the sun room almost as much as the dock. It was the perfect spot for morning coffee, meals, wine, and card games. The location is close to town and wineries. One of the perks of going early is how quiet and peaceful it is. There was little traffic on the road and it was nice to be able to take long walks. It was an enjoyable stay!

Girls Weekend
The Grape Escape was just right for a girls weekend! We were able to shop in Hammondsport, enjoy Finger Lakes wine tastings and local cuisine during the day, then late afternoon return to the cottage for happy hour and dinner. Sitting in the wonderful Adirondack chairs by a fire with a glass of Finger Lakes wine was the perfect way to end the day! We will definitely be return guests at the Grape Escape! Thank you Scott for sharing your family's cottage!

The Great Grape Escape
Comfortable, clean home on a beautiful lake. Owners provide helpful guidance so you can enjoy all the place has to offer. We fished, swam, shopped, played cards, and relaxed in the evenings around the fire pit sipping Finger Lakes wine. Picnic table by the water for lakeside meals of fresh fish. Keuka is an excellent smallmouth bass fishery, and we landed some bronzebacks over 20". Our grown kids renewed childhood rivalries on the N64 game console provided. Neighbors were quite friendly without being intrusive. This entire region is just gorgeous. Take in stunning views from the local wineries, especially Heron Hill and McGregor. Rieslings and some Cabs are very good. All in all, a wonderful week! We'd love to return.

Awesome - quiet and relaxing retreat.
The cottage was spotlessly clean when we arrived and everything was as advertised. A lovely view, quiet, and relaxing environment. Owner communicated effectively leaving nothing to chance. Many great places to visit close by and close to town. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing vacation. The value of the experience far exceeds the rental price.

Relaxing vacation was had at Hall's Grape Escape
We come up to Keuka Lake once a year from DC for a week in the summer and last year, was thrilled to find this cottage. So thrilled we are booked again this August.
Location is ideal - quiet in the bluff but still close to Penn Yan. If you rent a boat, easy ride across the lake to The Switz. Screened in porch was a great place for lunch and dinner and the Adirondack Chairs on the various decks and grass plus the hammock gave plenty options for relaxing.
Looking foward to returning.

The description of this cottage was exactly as written up in the ad. Very cozy and clean with great view of the lake, the sunrises were awesome. The owners were vey pleasant and helpfull, great to do business with. I would come again or recommend it to anyone. I am fisherman so having the boat right there by the dock was great, we also enjoyed visiting the wineries.

Hawkinson 2011 Finger Lakes Vacation
My family and I can't say enough good things about Hall's Grape Escape. From the fully functional cottage, to the idealic lakeside setting including lounging in the comfortable Adirondack chairs in the shade to the beautiful vineyard across the street to the perfect water to swim in with the friendly fish to the gracious neighbors on either side- this is a great place! That's why we come back year after year. We're not a religious people, but if there is a heaven on earth, this is the place. Enjoy.

Girl's Getaway Weekend
My two friends and I rented this cottage last weekend for a girls getaway weekend. We had a great time. Hall's Grape Escape was PERFECT. It was VERY clean and cozy. It had a beautiful view of the lake from both inside and outside. We were even provided with campfire wood for a campfire! It was very relaxing. It is close enough to visit some wineries or the Windmill. The cottage had everything you would need without bringing a thing but your clothes, food and bedding. There is a beautiful dock with Adirondack chairs to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon cocktail right on the water. Great place. Would definitely go back.

A Great Vacation
Your cottage was the perfect place for us. To be right on Keuka Lake was just wonderful. The view out the front porch windows was fantastic! We rested and then explored the area. What beautiful country the Finger Lake Region is. We loved the cottage the most of all. The owners keep it in such great condition. Clean and the property itself is well maintained. The dock, of course, is a great asset. Just to sit and watch the water and all the speed boats (next time we rent a boat). We enjoyed the neighbors too.
We have absolutely no complaints, as we had everything we needed and more!
We will be back next year.
