Gorgeous property on Seneca lake. The views were amazing and the lake not very busy. The house itself had pretty much everything you need just like your own house, except a pitcher but we made it work! There are games galore inside and out plus the game room. You cannot be bored. The master bedroom was my favorite and I wanted to take it home.😊 Thank you so much Jill!!! It was just what the family wanted.

Thank you for a great week at the Finger Lakes. The house was perfect for our family. We each felt like we had our own private section of the house the way the bedrooms are spread out. The kitchen has all the amenities one could want. And the lakeside toys were plentiful. We enjoyed some beautiful sunsets on the pier. Highly recommended.

We just stayed at this property for a week with our family of 5( children 5, 6 and 8 years old), my parents and brother and his girlfriend. We were greeted with a lovely welcome basket, nice cold ac and a meticulous house. The house layout gave everyone their own space. It was perfectly equipped with everything we would need to prepare meals and be comfortable. The children LOVED the lake and the game room. It was truly the perfect place to call home for the week and retreat to after exploring the beautiful finger lakes. We biked from the property to Sampson state park, watched sunsets from the dock and enjoyed firepits under the stars. Jill was so easy to work with. Her house is truly a gem And we cannot wait to come back!

What a gem this home is! Jill has been so great to work with from booking months ago to check in. The house was clean and exactly as we expected based on the listing. The views are unbelievable and everything we could have needed during our stay was in the house making it so convenient. Jill thought of everything and more! We will definitely be back for a future visit.

It is a beautifully maintained and furnished property directly overlooking the lake. There were lots of little extras that made the stay special such as quality toiletries and a generous welcome basket with snacks, wine gifts and a large bottle of wine. Kitchen supplies were of high quality and everything was well stocked including coffee and spices. The house had plenty of room for three adult couples as each of us had our own floor and bathroom. It's a great place for those with extended families. It was too cold and snowy to enjoy the outside decks, firepit and game room in the garage but the views were spectacular. Water sources and showers did emit a strong smell of sulphur. We utilized the water filter on the fridge door. For older people, the many sets of stairs may pose a problem. The owner Jill was very responsive and easy to book with. She didn't cut corners in making this a comfortable experience for guests. So many amenities to enjoy especially in warmer weather.

The property is simply stunning. The finishes, furniture, and amenities are evocative of a very high quality home. The decor is fresh yet classic. No cheesy lake house/cottage vibes or smells here! It was incredibly clean upon arrival. The host puts a lot of thought into everything- we were even greeted with a sweet basket of goodies for New Year’s Eve! The game room was a great touch and full of high quality fun, but the lack of heat made it hard to enjoy in the winter when we stayed. It would be a huge attraction for kids in summer though! We stay in the FLX every New Year’s Eve and this house was the best one we’ve been to yet! Kudos to the host for her gorgeous place.
