We had a great week! The house is wonderful. Very very clean and we really appreciated the thoughtful layout and impressive use of space. It was perfect for our family! The driveway down to the house is steep (as noted in the description)with switchbacks but once you’ve navigated it, it is not a problem. Great location - close to town.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay. The house is clean and was fully stocked with all of the essentials. The owner communicated with us well in the beginning and throughout the week. The neighbors are friendly and helpful. Thank you for a great stay, we are looking forward to coming back!

The ride down winds a bit and is steep. Recommend AWD/4x4 to make it easier. The house is great and the view of the lake is very tranquil! The dock is too shallow to allow for safe jumping/diving in the water (even in July) and it is very hard to dock a boat to pick up people. Dock is also wobbly so a bit hard to have more than 2 people on it at a time. The diving platform in the lake is gone due to a storm. Overall really liked the house and had a great time. If the dock was lengthened and improved, this would be the best rental on the lake.

"Lake Edge" is perched on a steep hillside about 50' over it's private beach. All 43 of the wooden steps to the water were strong and secure as we're the railings. Two scary switchbacks on the lane to the cottage we're really not as difficult as they appeared. The cottage is secluded. Adjacent neighbors were invisible through the trees, though we could hear soft voices. Perfect privacy in which to relax and unwind. The cottage is newly decorated with flat screen TVs everywhere. Great Wi-Fi. Very comfortable and functional. Great deck with a view across the lake. Best two-week vacation yet!

This property was just what our family needed to relax and enjoy the beauty of Skaneateles. The home's deck had the most beautiful lake view in the mornings. The home was fully stocked with anything you might need. We enjoyed the access to the lake for swimming and rented a pontoon boat for a couple days. As others have mentioned, the driveway down to the house took some practice but we were all pros by the end of the week. The Owner was very responsive to any questions we had. A magical place and one we'd love to come back to!

Perfect Family Lake Getaway

We loved our week at Lake Edge. The house was cozy, clean, and a perfectly decorated lake house. The stone beach was perfect for our two kids to spend their days. The layout of the house is perfect for a young family, the loft provides a great space for the kids to spend their indoor time and gives the adults room to hang in the kitchen and living area. We'd come again in a heartbeat.
