There are many positives to this property, and a couple of negatives, at least with our lifestyle. Positives include the owner (who lives in the house next door). What a delightful person to chat with. We loved the porch, all the chairs available to sit and enjoy the view, the access to a canoe, and the cottage itself. Everything that the owner could control we thouroughly enjoyed. The negative for us (living in rural PA) what the distance from the cottage to the road. The road is the major north-south route on the eastern side of the lake, and even though it was quiet at the cottage 85% of the time, trucks did use the road, and we all know how load some trucks can be. The evenings were very quiet. Early morning you could hear the road becoming more active. Overall a very positive experience. Our dog settled in very nicely and to sum - up the review, yes, we would stay there again.

Beautiful location. Fit our needs vacationing with our dog. Steps to upstairs too steep for us but staying downstairs worked for our needs.

We enjoyed our stay at Camp Onondaga. Everything was perfect! Anne Marie was a wonderful host:) would definitely book again!

We were looking for a simple home to enjoy the lake and outdoors and local Finger Lakes offerings. The home was clean and has everything you need including an outdoor grill and picnic table on the deck, a small dock and a row boat and canoe that we enjoyed, not to mention lake breezes and gorgeous sunsets. Our adult children had a blast with some of their friends on the water, having a bonfire and visiting local wineries. The home is near Aurora and Skaneatles for local shopping, antiquing and gorgeous views. We spent a lot of time at a park in Aurora which became my running route daily. It was a short drive away. Anne Marie is nearby to give tips and to ask questions like where is the closet Walmart. There is also a small grocery store, dollar store, gas station and laundry mat nearby in Union Springs. The house has interesting history if you appreciate things that are historic. It was fun to stay there with the knowledge of hundreds of years of history happening. We would definitely rent there again.

AnneMarie was the perfect host! She greeted us when we arrived and gave us an overview of the cottage and general info. We had our daughter and 18 month old granddaughter with us and AnneMarie even brought toys over for her❤️ AnneMarie even lent Eric a fishing pole! She shared the grapes and apples from her yard as well. She was a Wealth of information for places to eat or shop. So very kind ! The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed. We did bring our own linens. Kids will love the loft! Fishing off the dock or on the boat was great. But oh those sunsets!!!

Minuses - Limited parking, VERY steep stairs to upper floor and balcony, SMALL shower; due to bad weather and flooding prior to our arrival, dock was unavailable for most of our 12 day stay. Pluses - Convenient location but lots of road noise from traffic. Definitely would not recommend for seniors.

We had a wonderful time at Camp Onondaga! The cabin is clean and well maintained. The stairs to the loft take a little getting used to but eventually you get the hang of it. Swimming in the lake is absolutely wonderful. The lake is shallow where the cabin is located and it gets deeper very gradually. Plus the lake water is fairly warm, so it's easy to get in! I also appreciated that the row boat and canoe were in great shape, which so very rare these days. To top it all off, fishing on the lake is a lot of fun. There are plenty of fish to catch and even observe.

We had a Great Lake vacation in this quaint log cabin style house- we will be back!

Renter attacked religious preferences and was constantly questioning air conditioner use

At first it looked small and like it would not be able to accommodate our family. As it turned out, there was plenty of room and the property gave us all we needed.

The location is great. Ann Marie is an amazing host. If you are looking for something to do just ask Ann Marie, she was spot on with all of her recommendations for my family and I. I highly recommend staying here and having Ann Marie be your Host.

Hard for us as seniors to go upstairs so young 40 couple slept upstairs. We took the down stairs. Air conditioners worked well in 90 degree heat wave. lake view was great! Fishing was fun.

Easy rental

While my family and I had a great time, I was a little thrown off when we first arrived. As soon as we got there I was questioned on the amount of people and weather or not I paid the pet fee. We were also informed of a mishap with the oven and was told not to use it. As there were 5 adults and 3 children we had already planned out most of our meals and brought the food we would need to limit shopping trips. After getting settled it took my husband not even a half hour to clean out the oven so that it could be used. My family and I still had a nice time despite those issue.

Had a good time and enjoyed the good weather. Enjoyed watching nature and fishing in Cayuga Lake. Very close to various hiking trails and other areas of interest. Row boat, canoe, and paddle boat were in good shape.

We loved the stay. Nice cottage with all the essentials handy to make your trip successful. Owner is very nice, we almost chatted with her everyday. Lake view was amazing with all the access to the deck and boats for kids and family. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely cabin with lots of room for us all. Cabin was neat and clean and loved all the work that was done to it. Ann Marie was so pleasant and very easy to talk with. Everyone had a wonderful time.

The sleeping loft concept was something new we wanted to try. It was very much enjoyed by those that slept upstairs. Having a large yard was a great benefit you don't often find on a lake cottage. Availability of boats kept us all very active. Easy access to water in a fairly quiet, natural place. Great time for all of us!

Our stay was wonderful. . We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Great views of the sunset and starry skies off the top balcony. It is in a great location - so close to the Montezuma Wildlife Refuge and right on the lake. The house is well stocked for all you need for a lakeside cabin stay. Thanks Ann Marie.

Lovely lake front cottage! Breathtaking sunsets! Annmarie was wonderful, very helpful and accommodating! Would recommend!

Ann Marie was very accommodating and friendly. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch every morning and watching the Ospreys and other wildlife. The sunsets were beautiful and there were fireworks on July fourth over the lake which was an extra treat. It was fun using the canoe and paddle boat. We enjoyed our stay.

We had a great week on the lake with our dog. Ann was a wonderful host.

We went for Father’s Day week fishing trip with my son and my friend and his brother in law and the accommodations were great. We had a big dock for our boats right off the main lake. House had a nice porch to hang out on after a long day of fishing, a grill for cooking and the fishing was amazing. I would highly recommend this cabin!

Our family had a great time. A wonderful cabin. The owner was very friendly and helpful. She welcomed us and made our stay comfortable. The cabin was perfect and the views were magnificent. I will definitely come again.

This is a nice cottage with easy access to the water. Loved that there was a boat, a canoe and a paddle boat available. Loved the view from the balcony and wished we had been coming to this place when our kids were little since we often fished nearby.

Great location beautiful sunsets. Even saw the space station fly over twice. However for fishing this time of year very heavy vegetation along the shoreline.

Old grill, rusty& dirty, boats full of water, deck ladder full of spider webs, could not swim, seaweed everywhere, beds uncomfortable, pullout hard to sleep on, no ac,etc What was advertised was not available. Owner was accommodating & friendly. We were disappointed not being able to swim & go boating.

We really enjoyed our stay. It's easy to find. It's in a great location. It's within easy reach of several towns and attractions. The cabin is rustic but still well appointed. We love the wrap-around porch and the balcony off the upstairs bedroom. We were able to take in some beautiful sunsets from there. The owner is very nice and helpful whenever she is needed. Overall, we had a fantastic time and wouldn't hesitate to rent this property again

We had a wonderful vacation - the cottage was absolutely the best, and the location was great with so many towns to visit and things to do! Ann Marie was so nice and she made sure our stay was too! We definitely want to stay at this cottage again!!

We enjoyed our stay at Frank and Ann Marie's cottage. The cottage has everything you would need. Great location right on the lake and close to many wineries.

We were looking for a cottage from which to check out the more eastern-ish Finger Lakes, and Camp Onondaga was close to perfect. Although the weather could have been a bit more cooperative, we were still able to cruise around the area during the day and still USUALLY catch the beautiful sunsets from the upstairs deck with a cocktail. The canoe was especially enjoyable, and a highlight of our trip was seeing a young osprey fledge almost over our heads as we drifted along one late afternoon in the paddleboat. And the photos of the place as it looked in the 1800s are SO cool! Just to be clear to those reading this, this IS a camp, originally built as a trapper's cabin - if you're looking for luxury, this may not be the place for you - but it is completely refurbished, is clean and comfortable, and is equipped with anything you might need to happily sail through a few days. The steep stairs are maneuverable with just a bit of practice, and the upstairs AC combined with two ceiling fans keep any high heat/humidity away. The attic fan - which comes on automatically - is rather loud, but it's a "white noise" that one gets used to easily. Thanks, Ann Marie, for all the recommendations and assistance, and we hope that you and Frank have a lovely autumn!
