It was a great time, very clean and outstanding house with a short walk to the beach, that has attractions. The host is super friendly and isn’t hard to reach! Would definitely recommend! Thank you Joey!

The indoor and outdoor spaces were comfortable and inviting. The waterfront was spacious with easy access to the water. To get to the water you must walk down the driveway, cross the road and then go down a shared driveway to the dock. With children aged 6 and 10 I was a little nervous about the road, but traffic is light and the drivers were cautious and considerate and the children followed good road-crossing protocol. A suggestion about the tricky driveway up to the cabin: If you have backup cameras, backing up the driveway is easier than backing down. Once we figured out the best way to negotiate it, the driveway was no problem. For the lower drive to the lake, backing down and driving up worked best. We had a great time!

The cottage is lovely and roomy, situated in the trees with multiple porches from which to admire the lake. Waterfront area is good, with plenty of swim and boating equipment (though a second kayak would be nice). The famous driveway is steep, especially for old knees, but definitely unavoidable, given the perfect setting of overlooking the lake yet with access to it.

We had fantastic time, loved everything about the place (rustic but felt like home) and location, the drive to the house from the street is a bit steep but hey - you either get a bit of a workout walking or get the thrill of driving your car up and down:)

Great House! Lots of fun had!! Even the rainy day didnt keep the boys out of the water and lots of fun playing games provided at the house to pass the time. The drive way is steep but we concoured it several times with no casualties. Thank for a great Adult weekend get away. (If you have bad knees or trouble with hills this is not the house for you)

Clean, and with 7 adults the 2 full bathrooms were perfect. Multiple decks to sit on and eat, birdwatch, or just veg. The cabin is well stocked. Bring your Rokus/Firesticks, the bedrooms that have TVs, they are not "Smart", but the one in the living room is. We rarely watched them. There are neighbors on each side at the waterfront, but up at the cabin, nothing but nature! We arrived in the middle of an almost 100F heatwave, so the AC was appreciated the first.few days, as was the proximity to the crystal clear lake...bring water shoes, the bottom is a bit rocky! Putting kayaks in was simple, and there.is a marina just up the road that will put a bigger boat in for you, for a fee, or there are.public boat launches at Keuka Lake State Park, and in Penn Yan. The driveway IS steep, as mentioned in other reviews, so not for anyone with any limitations to a climb, but even the 70+ year old members in our group were able to navigate it several times a day without issue. Penn Yan has all the necessities (even an Aldi!), and there are a multitude of wineries, Cideries, Breweries and even Meaderies in the area, for those who like that! If you are in the area and want a beautiful hike, we highly recommend Watkins Glen State Park Gorge trail. Amazing!

Lovely property and very clean, which is important to me. They had a TON of towels too. Loved having the kayak and canoe. The host was very responsive and communication was clear and precise. We had no issues whatsoever. The deck was just perfect to sit out on at night to overlook the lake. I see other reviews mention a steep driveway. I just want to reiterate that they are NOT kidding. That driveway is a beast and if you have mobility issues it’s going to be tough. It’s steep and winds a few times. We just parked at the bottom and walked up and it was fine…it was a great glute workout for sure. Keep this in mind if you’re planning to bring a lot of stuff that’s heavy. Also - bring bug spray. It’s a wooded lot, very natural setting. The house at the bottom of the Y in the lake so most attractions (wineries and restaurants) were about 20m away. Might be a little further out than you want, depending on what you are planning to do while there. Worked great for us and was very peaceful and quiet!

Our family was happy to meet again but this time in Finger Lakes /Keuka lake ... beautiful retreat !
