We had a wonderful long weekend on Lake Skaneateles. The house is in great shape, the owner kept in close contact and was very responsive, and the lake is beautiful. We took advantage of the fire pit under starry skies every night. We will definitely stay here again if we make it to the Finger Lake region in the future.

The lake house is amazing! The view, the hot tub, the fire pit, the deck… the perfect setting for a totally chill vaca (which is what we were going for). Close to downtown Skaneateles where you’ll find the cutest town with fun stores and great food. Lots of great hiking and places to explore like Beak & Skiff, Elderberry Pond, Crazy Daisy’s and Watkins Glen. Allison and Andy are great hosts and made sure everything was perfect. We will def be return guests. Much more to eat and explore !

Perfect property for lake life. Our family had the best time and was an awesome property imside and out.

I absolutely loved this house. It was breathtaking to drive up to see a sweet house surrounded by woods with the lake in the background. What was even more breathtaking was to actually walk into the house and see the lake in all its glory theough the wall of windows. I never tired of the view and the peacefulness and had I been able to swing it with flights etc I would’ve eagerly extended the stay. The house has everything you need, the kitchen is well stocked, there’s a washer and a dryer and a very good choice of kayaks, paddleboards, oars, life jackets, etc. The bed was very comfortable and the second bedroom looked really cute. I honestly cannot express to you what a sense of peace this property gave me. Skaneateles is a gorgeous 15 minute drive away, Dougs Fish Fry was awesome, went twice. The town is just as beautiful as the first time I happened upon it 7 years ago. Do drive the lovely one hour drive to Ithaca Farmers Market, you won’t regret it I promise! But do it early in your stay so you can take advantage of the all fresh produce, pies, cheese and flowers. I will definitely be bringing my husband to this house within the next year. The only negative I can possibly think of - and this is being SUPER picky - is that I would suggest to update the two leather couches to upholstered couches and possibly move the tv to another wall for easier viewing. But again, this is me being excessively picky! ;) The house and the lake are sublime.

Everything was absolutely wonderful and I would visit again!

We visited the hideaway as a short family getaway for our 10 year anniversary (myself, my husband and our toddler). As soon as we drove up we fell in love. The house is quaint and gorgeous. It was spotlessly clean. The views were phenomenal with the sliding glass doors along the whole back of the house. Despite the cool, rainy weather we had a wonderful time. We can’t wait to go back again next year!

We had a wonderful time staying at the property. Ample outdoor space, great water-front amenities, fire pit, hammock etc. Beautifully remodeled cottage. Great kitchen for cooking. We will be back!

The cottage was very clean & modern! Alison was extremely helpful & pleasant! The lake views are breathtaking whether you’re in the house, on the back porch, in the hot tub, at the look out deck or on the dock! The extra amenities (hot tub, paddle boards, sunscreen, bug spray, speakers, walkie-talkies, candles, cooler, extra towels, bedside reading lights, plethora of kitchen utensils & dishes, etc) were a huge plus. We felt like we were at home! That’s really hard to do when traveling with an infant! We hope to go back very soon! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
