Great house for the family. Enough room to spread out, well equipped kitchen, and great deck with great view. The new dock works great and the 2 kayaks and paddle boat kept every one busy. There was enough room at the dock to tie up a pontoon boat for the week while still plenty of room to swim and fish. Great location with winery and brewery down the street. Great house to maximize lake fun and relaxation.

Could only unlock door on first day. Messaged property contact but didn’t hear from her until we had left. Other than that had a great time. Loved the house.

Everything was as it was described. Only real issue was the patio, and the house was covered with spiders, and webs caught more insects. These were all outside, and a leaf blower could have cleaned 1/2 of them, or a power washer would have done the job

Perfect lakeside retreat
This property is fantastic! It is a newer home with expansive views of the lake. The wall of windows in the living area took full advantage of the beautiful setting. The waves were a little stronger-- maybe due to the location or time of year. The sound of the waves was like the ocean, which was incredibly soothing. My 9 year old tried fishing for the first time from the dock. In the first 3 days of our vacation he caught 27 fish (lake trout, perch and bluegill). His best catch (from the dock) was a 15" trout. It is not a myth, there is seriously good fishing at this location! The home was well appointed. The furniture and beds were very comfy. It is apparent the owner put a lot of thought into comfort and amenities. For example, in the downstairs area, they had a closet filled with brand new lifejackets ranging from infant to adult. The stay was soo ideal, that we immediately wanted to move here! We're thankful that we got the chance to stay and will look for opportunities to return. It's a great place to truly relax and make happy family memories.

Vacation Stay - July 2021
This house was fantastic. The location of the house and being right on the lake made for a great vacation. The homeowners definitely thought of their guests - in their utilization of space and amenities of space. The downstairs area was perfect for the kids, and gave them their own area in the house. We definitely recommend this house and area.

Great house, but they forgot to clean the floors!
Upon checking in, there was dog poop in the walkway, that we had to get rid of so my children would not step in it.. Then, the kitchen floor was filthy, my white socks showed how dirty it was. Going upstairs to the loft bedroom, there was dog hair everywhere. It was statically attaching to our clothes. Now, I thought this was a no pets rental? Also the basement level floors were filthy, also no propane for the grill.. I called the Property Manager, and complained. It took me calling twice to get someone down here to clean the floors, and then I had to call again to get the propane delivered. For what I paid for the rental, I should have gotten a discount.

Duck Inn did not dissapoint!
Home was exactly as described. The place was clean and everything was in order. We really enjoyed our stay. Close to many Wineries and 20 minutes from the best cheese place around the region.

Great Property
This property was fantastic for our girls weekend. It was within minutes of wineries and was a central location for traveling along the lake. The fire pit was an added bonus that we used each night of our stay. The house was super clean and accommodated all of our needs. We will definitely return to this property in the future. The only thing I would ask for is bathmats in the bathrooms, it’s tile flooring and gets slippery when coming out of the shower.

The most amazing place on the Finger Lakes.
I feel so lucky to have stayed at this gorgeous home. When you wake up, you are greeted with a glass wall that shows how close you are to the beautiful lake. The house was impeccable. We enjoyed the dock and the fire pit. It's a nice location if you want to enjoy Ithaca, wineries, breweries and hikes.
We can't wait to go back!

Great Fall Getaway
My friends and I planned a fun birthday weekend at Cayuga Lake. This house definitely made the stay extra enjoyable. Not only was it beautiful and spacious but I really enjoyed the sound of the water at night, very soothing and peaceful. We even took advantage of the neat fire pit (need to get your own firewood but we found some on the roadside not too far from the house). Bring your own shampoo, conditioner and body wash, none provided. Also remember coffee filters if you want to make your own. Overall, I would recommend this place to others!

Great House
My wife, son, and I throughly enjoyed our stay at this house. We’ve been to the finger lakes a couple of times and this house was our favorite. The house was very clean and well stocked including 4 Roku TVs which were nice. The property has a Keurig and fire pit in the back yard which was really nice. What separates this property is the covered patio in the back overlooking the lake. It was great sitting out there looking at the lake. I would highly recommend this property. It’s centrally located and very well maintained. Good for a family vacation.

Superb cottage
Superb location. Amazing view. Large windows with cathedral ceilings. Air condition, Wifi. Everything was provided with towels and kitchen supplies and lifejackets. We enjoyed the canoes and the paddleboat and the bonfire. Biking is challenging in that area with hills and valleys and certainly not for kids. There are 4 TVs with good internet service, netflix. Easy parking on a dead end road.
We visited a lot of wineries. The cottage is half an hour from Ithaca and from Watkins Glen. We loved our week. The instructions given for the cottage were clear and simple. The notes left by the owners were nice and appreciated. Showers and kitchen appliances were excellent. Overall, we are very happy we chose this particular cottage. We would certainly return when we have a chance. We enjoyed the area and we were honestly very impressed with Finger Lakes, a hidden gem part of the world. We will return for a long weekend hopefully soon.
