As soon as we walked into the enclosed porch and large main living area and saw nothing but the lake, we knew we had made the right decision in renting this property. The place has the classic cabin feel with many personal touches you don't find in most rentals. We were able to enjoy the lake activities with the grandchildren using the kayaks, the greatgrandchildren wading in the lake and the adult relaxing lakeside using supplied chairs and lounge chairs and umbrellas. We appreciated the opportunity to bring in the local family and guests so all could enjoy this place. Even when the weather prevented going out on the lake one day, everyone found something to do: board games, pool table, dart board, big screen tv to watch Eurocup soccer, corn hole and more. Our next family gathering in the Syracuse area will definitely include the Quick Getaway.

Roomy and comfortable summer home in a quiet friendly neighbor. The on-line pictures and description are accurate. What it doesn't show you is how comfortable the beds are, how relaxing and fun the outdoor spaces are (deck and enclosed porch) nor how well stocked it is with anything you could need. And a bonus is working with Andrea who is very friendly, accommodating. and gracious. This was such a great rental and rental experience. We'd love to come back.

We booked this property for a lakeside stay while dropping my son at college at Syracuse University. We were looking forward to exploring the area and enjoying lake activities with the children in our group. Andrea, the owner was communicative ahead of our stay offering to provide restaurant suggestions or answer any questions we had. Unfortunately when we arrived, we were met with a lakeside filled with algae that made use of the lake in any form (swimming, paddle boat etc) impossible. We contacted the owner who said no cleaning services for the lakeside were available and indicated it was an ongoing problem at the house and in the area. We tried to clear out at least an area to access the water but it was a losing battle. When we responded with a lengthy email asking why we had not been informed the lake was unusable before our arrival or at any time during the booking process, andrea did not respond. We felt it was misleading to not mention the algae problem since it was not a one time issue but an ongoing problem. Overall the house has some positives- a nice screened porch, lovely view and nice outdoor fire pit. However, the upstairs is extremely cramped and poorly built (the beds old and severely sagging with uneven sloping floors). We ended up leaving a day early bc without use of the water there wasn’t much to do. For the high summer rate we paid for a ‘lakefront property’ that we couldn’t use, this stay, and the owners lack of concern, was disappointing.

We really enjoyed our quick getaway at the property. The house is perfect for spending time on the lake, lots to do inside and outside. We loved the setup and would certainly consider coming back! Thank you, Natalia

We really enjoyed our stay and had a great time fishing, playing games, and going to on day trips. Check in and out was really easy and Andrea was always available for questions.

Host was always available. Plenty of room inside and outside. Make sure to read the story of QW. Owners have done many improvement in a short period of time.

Had a fabulous week at the QW! Weather didn't necessarily cooperate, but the QW had spaces to enjoy the outside in the rain, inside when it was windy, and games to play all day and night! Very flexible space for whatever was needed. Many places to dine, drink, and explore in the local area. Andrea was the perfect hostess! Friendly neighbors as well!
