We had a wonderful time staying at the lakehouse. Jacci set things up perfectly for our visit. We all were wishing we had a few more days to enjoy the lake and house at the end of the trip!

Our family of five adults had a fantastic time at this property. The location was superb. The house is cute and cozy. I was surprised by the sound of the lake lapping against the shore, which was soothing. The owners were fantastic and greatly responsive. The house was stocked above and beyond what we needed. If I had to give one negative comment, it would be that my daughter-in-law complained of the queen bed being a bit hard. Otherwise we had a fantastic experience!

My family and I rented this property for a week's vacation and could not have been happier. It was perfect for our family of four and there were a lot of amenities, e.g. fire pit, kayaks, grill, etc. The communication with Jacci (owner) was excellent and plenty to do in the area. If we decide to ever go back to the area, we'd definitely stay here again.

We had a group of six staying here over the Fourth of July holiday, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! Heck of a Deck was exactly the peaceful and chill vibes we were looking for. The house was equipped with everything we needed, and the views are absolutely stunning. We spent nearly all of our time on the deck but also enjoyed the local winery and shops. Jacci gave us a wonderful overview at check-in and made sure we were comfortable. Very clean, thoughtful stay, and AC worked really well as it was hot, humid weather. We will definitely be back!

This was a really great house, we had such a great time on the lake, and the location was perfect for our event in Ithaca! Jacci & Virgil were extremely helpful, and we had a fantastic weekend. We will definitely try to stay here again!!

We really enjoyed our two-week stay at the lake on heck-of-a-deck. The house comes equipped with everything you may possibly need (kayaks, grill, full kitchen, oodles of chairs), and the owners are thoughtful and meticulous about every detail. Jacci had lots of great recommendations for the area and was very communicative. Would recommend for a relaxing family and friends trip!

I had a great few days with some friends and our dogs. You can’t beat lakefront sunsets with that deck, which even had a special gate so that we could sit outside with the dogs and not worry about them wandering. The house was well stocked (kitchen and bathroom essentials) and very comfortable.

We enjoyed every aspect of our stay. All of the details were considered! Fire pit was loaded with seasoned wood ready to burn! We have already booked our week next year!

Of course, the deck is the undisputed star of this wonderful property! We could not have spent our first post-Covid three generation family vacation in a better place. The house is thoughtfully appointed and stocked. There is everything you will need and more...Jacci and Virgil are the most wonderful hosts who truly care about well-being of their guests and respond to every request. And one can never forget the most amazing sunsets!

Jacci and Virgil are the best property managers we’ve ever enjoyed in our extensive VRBO experience. The location on the lake could not have been more beautiful and convenient to the idyllic town of Aurora. The deck and amenities were over the top amazing to use.
In short, a great place to stay!

From the booking process, thru our departure, we had an incredible stay. Jacqui and Virgil were wonderful. The home was so welcoming and felt so homey! We truly appreciated all the effort made with food items in the fridge, coffee to brew, snacks to share, concern over our boat during a storm, checking in, but not bothering, a warm atmosphere and a beautiful setting. We highly recommend this lovely home on the lake!

We had a lovely week with family on the lake. I cannot say enough about the deck with the most amazing view. Jacci was wonderful to work with. She was extremely prompt in communication and dealing with issues.
We unfortunately experienced a major problem during our stay. There is no place to store food, so we placed it in boxes on the floor of the kitchen. Our first morning there, we found that mice had gotten into our food. After contacting Jacci, they quickly set traps. We caught two mice in the house. Jacci was very apologetic and compensated us accordingly. We were extremely disgusted by the mice, but decided to stay and make the best of the time. They left us a lovely welcome array of food. We really appreciate that, but the s’more fixings were sealed in an airtight container, but we noticed a mouse had previously bitten through the chocolate and the marshmallows.
Again, the outside living space is lovely, and we really appreciated Jacci’s promptness in responding. Unfortunately, we will not be returning and would not recommend this home.

I can not say enough about the quality of our stay at “Heck of a Deck”. The house was clean, well stocked and Jacci and Virgil was amazing! Communication was excellent. Jacci was very informative and helpful. The house is not near the waterfalls and gorges of Ithaca, but we knew that going in. Overall, we highly recommend this property and the owners!
5.0 / 10.0
Jacci and Virgil are excellent hosts. They went above and beyond, including helping to jump start our car battery, to make the stay enjoyable. The home is cozy, but the excellent covered deck greatly expands the sitting areas. During the hot week, the deck was perfect. This was the ideal rental for our party of 6.

even cuter than the pictures and the hosts were beyond hospitable.
