The house was comfortable. Everything worked. Hosts were helpful with suggestions for places to eat in the nearby towns. In-house instruction booklet was clear and thorough. A nice, unassuming place to relax and enjoy each other.

We were so happy with the house and location. Our trip to the finger lakes had several towns we were going to see and the location of the property was ideal. The owners were a delight to deal with and even left cookies and peach bread for us. The house was clean, had all the essentials and was right near Seneca Lake. Lots of wildlife too.

We arrived on Friday for the Deck the Halls event. It is always a great time and we are so happy it is back! Booking was super easy as was the communication with Jo. Check in was seamless, the property was exactly as described and super clean. She even messaged me to let me know we could arrive a bit early, which was great! The location is perfect as 2 of my favorite wineries are Miles and Glenora, so we were in close proximity. We also were greeted with the iconic grape pie! I cannot say enough great things about this property and hosts. We will definitely be back!

We stayed in the Finger Lakes last summer on the east side of Seneca Lake with our kids. It was a great vacation that they still talk about. In August, we decided to take a trip to Finger Lakes to see the fall colors with other family members on the west side of Seneca Lake. I found this home in Himrod and it did not disappoint. It was perfectly located on the Seneca Lake West Wine Trail and near the Keuka Lake Wine Trail. The pictures are exactly how the home looked. The owners left us snacks and a grape pie (a first for us and absolutely delicious). We tried to go to the bakery where it was bought, but it was so crowded we could not find a parking space. It was the perfect getaway. Thank you Jo and Tom for sharing your home so that others can make wonderful memories.

A very nice clean house with all the convinces of home. Owners were very accommodating and helpful. The location worked well for us, as we have a big family gathering just down the road. The Lake is beautiful and lots of wineries. Shopping in Watkins Glen was a plus too!

Amazing stay
Jo and Tom are amazing hosts. Our family felt comfortable and welcomed into this beautiful property. When they found out our children were coming they made it a point to offer ways to make our stay easier. They set up a wonderful toddler bed for our almost two year old and they were sure to have games out for our 10 year old and ourselves to enjoy. Everything was clean and well kept. For myself being a mom there concern in planning for our stay ment the world. We will definitely be staying again.

Everything was excellent
September was our first time using VRBO and everything went very smoothly. All of the communication with Jo and Tom was great, they were so helpful and nice. We had an unexpected late arrival, and they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The house was absolutely perfect in every way; it was extremely clean and we felt very safe. The location couldn't have been better and we walked down to the lake every morning. The hill can be a bit much depending on activity level, and my mom did not walk all the way down because she wasn't sure she could make the hike back up, but it is a very rewarding walk - the morning view is just like paradise. The fire pit was probably our favorite spot. We really appreciated the area and overall wished we could have made our trip longer. We would absolutely stay with Jo and Tom again. Thank you!!
