Camp Gramp is a wonderful place to share a relaxing and adventuresome family vacation. Peaceful, beautiful and close to shopping, dining etc. Many thanks!

Great, clean, comfortable, and close to so much. We had a wonderful time and everything was as the owner said. The boat, kayaks, and canoe were a big plus. My family had a great time

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Loved being right on the lake with great views. Kayaking, using the floats on the lake was great. Awesome fire pit! Ate s’mores by the fire. Green Shutters has a yummy cheeseburger and homemade onion rings.

This was our second year at Gramps Camp and we already can't wait for next year. We love the peace and tranquility here. The ducks are so much fun and floating around in a tube and drinking in the beauty of nature is amazing. The Gramps Campsters were very helpful and available to us .Ty for sharing this little piece of heaven.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Camp Gramp. Can't beat the location and the host, Mark, was wonderful.

Camp gramps was even better than the description. My husband and I rented and we had visits from our children and grandchildren. Place is great for all ages. Swimming was especially great for the kids ! Feeding the ducks was a favorite for all. It was so nice to Durban the deck for our morning coffee abs our evening cocktails! Just an overall good time for all

This was our first time staying on Owasco lake. Camp Gramp is in a great location. It’s close to Emerson Park and we were able to listen music one night. It’s also close to Auburn so lots of places to go. While the cottage is close to others it doesn’t feel at all cramped. The yard is nice and level which was great for yard games. We definitely enjoyed the motorboat, kayaks , canoe and water toys. I believe we took advantage of the motorboat every day to cruise around the lake. The amenities at the cottage were abundant, many that we don’t have at home such as the trash compactor and garbage disposal. Probably the only thing we would say that wasn’t on the plus side was that the water is shallow. The lake is clean and the grass is very short which was great. It’s obvious after being there for a week that everyone takes that in stride as we also did. We do understand that it’s the nature of the lake at this end and don’t want it to be a poor reflection on Camp Gramp. Our eighteen year old son commented that this was his favorite place that we’ve stayed at which is high praise from him and we agree.

Property was in a great location near Emerson Park. Convenient for walks and entertainment. Camp Gramps was very well maintained and had all the comforts of home. Easy process to rent and gain access on first day. Very quiet neighborhood except for July 3rd fireworks show which was awesome. Highly recommend this location.

We enjoyed the amazing views, coffee on the deck, kayaking, swimming, and proximity to hiking! The house had a very well-equipped kitchen, and we had no trouble cooking and grilling. There were also tons of little Knick knacks…watching teenagers try to open cassette tapes is amusing:D. Owners were very responsive! Would definitely like to stay again!

This house we rented reminded us of our Grand parents, with all the antiques in the house! It was a very cozy feeling, the house was super clean, the water was clean and great. We got out fishing most days! But didn’t catch too many fish. But that’s ok, just getting out on the boat we brought with us was fun in its self! We had a wonderful vacation here. The owners were super nice and accommodating to us! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice place to stay even with young children. I can’t say enough about Camp Gramps! Thank you Camp Gramps 💕💕🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We had a great stay at camp gramp. It was so nice to get up and sit out on the deck in the morning and take in the view of the lake. Swimming and kyacking was a blast. We can’t wait to return. Craig

Mark is a pleasure. The location and property is fabulous. I use these types of Vac rentals and find this experience is outstanding. Thanks again Mark !!

We had such a wonderful stay at Camp Gramp. We arrived to a wonderfully clean home that far exceeded our expectations. It’s larger than it appears and very well appointed. Mark was a terrific host, available, and communicative. We hope to come again soon. Thanks for sharing this slice of heaven with our family! -The Meladossi Family.

This was our first experience at the Finger Lakes. Camp Gramp is absolutely fantastic! Relaxing on the deck, feeding the ducks cheerios (my favorite thing), floating in tubes, barbecues and toasting marshmallows by the firepit. Camp Gramp has it all. You lose track of time here and its just what the doctor ordered for stress relief. We loved having Auburn so close by with so many historical sites to visit. Moros Table was our last nights dinner out and everything was yummy! Already booked for two weeks next year.

This was our second year at camp gramp. The house is big enough for our group and has a large yard for the kids. The lake is our favorite part.

Loved the property, the lake, location, house, the front yard, home layout, kitchen and other supplies, little boat and motor, kayaks, fishing poles available when some grandchildren came over. The manager was very helpful when I needed information in preparation for arriving. Exceeded our expectations.

Beautiful view of lake, property was exceptionally clean

Our family had a great week at Camp Gramp! This charming little cottage had everything we needed. Owners were welcoming and responsive. Neighbors were friendly. Camp was clean. We enjoyed the swimming , kayaks and everything Camp Gramp had to offer!

We had a great time at this comfortable lakefront cottage! The house was super clean and had everything we could possibly need. The layout is convenient and it is larger than it looks in the pictures. The boats, water toys and fishing poles that were available for us to use were definitely a highlight! We enjoyed walking with the kids to the playgrounds and pier in nearby Emerson Park, and to the Green Shutter for ice cream. We would definitely come back!

Camp Gramp is a great place for a stay with family and/or friends. It is right on Owasco Lake, a lesser-known (and, therefore, less busy) lake in the eastern Finger Lakes. The decor of the house is a homage to the 1960’s and 1970’s, but updates have been done for comfort, functionality, and safety. The owners were always prompt to respond when we needed assistance.

Location location! Perfect lakeside location on the cove of Owasco lake. Enjoyed the shallow waters of about 3 feet for hours of tube floating and kayaking which were provided with rental. Took the fishing boat out for kids to catch their first fish. Kids loved feeding the ducks Cheerios. Several state parks 30 to 90 minutes away for hiking and waterfalls. Great communication and property as listed. Appreciated fully equipped kitchen that allowed us to cook our own meals. Would definitely stay again.

My family and I felt like we were staying at our grandparent’s cottage. The home had all the little extras you may have forgotten. The lake is delightful. It was a perfect escape from busy New York City.

Camp Gramp was just as described. Very clean, everything you need at your fingertips. Family enjoyed the kayaks. Beautiful views from inside the house. Nice quiet neighborhood. Very relaxing

I am originally from Owasco and wanted a way to visit my family but stay “socially distanced”. Camp Gramp was perfect!! Mark was more than accommodating and the house had everything you could ever need!

Lovely property, lovely location. Great views!

Had a wonderful stay. We didnt know what to expect as it was our first time to the area. We loved it! The place was super clean and had a well stocked kitchen. We loved where we were on the lake as we had young kids and it was at most 3 feet deep with sandy bottom. Took the boat out every morning and evening for fishing and fire pit every night. The kids loved fishing as they caught something everytime they went out. Loved the ducks and playing in the yard all day. Lots to do in the area, very convenient to Auburn and stores. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

This was an exceptional cottage rental. The location was very convenient. Amenities were provided and the owners were readily available if needed. We would highly recommend this cottage. Looking forward to coming back next year ☺️

Three generations enjoyed a great vacation . Lake water was warm and clear, sandy bottom. Lake frontage was large with plenty of room for campfire, badminton, duck feeding and any other lakefront activities. Panoramic view of lake from front of house was perfect (especially at sunrise). Although house is old, all amenities are up to date and house was very clean....we had everything we could possibly need and more. Thank you for sharing your home... would like to return next year!

We kayaked, canoed, and spent many hours on the lake just drifting on the tubes that came with the house. The water was a pleasant temperature and the sandy bottom comfortable on the feet. Great deck. Well stocked kitchen. Nice yard. Everyone—grandparents, daughter and son-in-law, two teen girls—agreed that a good time was had by all.

Our stay here was perfect for our family. The camp was clean, comfortable and had all the comforts of home, and then some! Morning coffee with the ducks, daytime fun in the lake and evening campfires made for great memories and a relaxed vacation. The owners are welcoming and helpful! We look forward to future visits!

This is the second time our family has rented this house for a week stay on Owasco Lake. And just as before, we found it to be the perfect spot! We travel from out of state to visit with friends and family and have rented several properties on Owasco Lake over the years. We love the location of this property....so convenient for quick trips to town. The home and property are well maintained and very clean. The kitchen is stocked with cooking utensils and the outdoor grill is in great shape. The deck is a nice size and offers a beautiful view of the lake. We enjoyed fires each night along the shore. The water is shallow and perfect for kids that like to go in and out all day! The owners are very nice and welcoming, and they provide a kayak, canoe and other games for use during your stay. We love this place!

We found the property just as described. Great quiet, safe location at the end of a private lane, lakefront and with unobstructed views of the lake and Emerson Park. The home and property overall were very clean and well maintained. We very much enjoyed the shallow nature of the lake out front which allowed the kids to play safely all day. The canoe and kayak provided were a godsend! The relaxing evenings around the lakeside firepit were also very memorable. We also appreciated the proximity to the Green Shutters restaurant and downtown Auburn. Would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation in a lakefront location with a large shaded lawn area for additional family activities. We will return!
