Beautiful farm house in the heart of Seneca County
A wonderful and cozy little house, all on one level, with two bedrooms and a fully stocked kitchen. The beds are very comfortable, featuring firm foam mattresses. The kitchen had all the necessary amenities, including a gas stove, microwave, Keurig machine, and plenty of cutlery, dishes, pots, and pans.
Now, some advice for fellow city dwellers like myself who might be new to staying in a farmhouse with well water: I recommend bringing your own water for the coffee machine and for drinking. The well water had a distinct fishy odor. The Keurig needed a couple of full rinses, using about a half gallon of water, to clear out the fishy smell. While I’m sure the water was safe to drink, it wasn’t to my liking.
Additionally, during this time of year, the Asiatic ladybugs were eager to get inside. They found a small crack in the window to enter the back guest bedroom. Of all the potential bugs you might encounter in a home, these are harmless but can be annoying. Thankfully, there was a vacuum on hand to deal with them.
All in all, it’s a super lovely farmhouse, and I highly recommend it. My comments are just suggestions for those used to city water and fewer critters to ensure they have the best experience possible.

Beautiful property, inside and out. Felt like ‘home away from home’ right away. Loved the porches. Well-stocked with essentials. Very neat, clean and uncluttered. Located fairly close to anything you’d be interested in exploring. Definitely well worth the visit.

This is a quiet and nicely appointed cottage that served our needs well given its location. Bob is a terrific host. The air conditioner units in the two bedrooms (only) were appreciated, given how hot it was during our stay.

The property was awesome for our two couple group. We love the fingerlakes and spend a lot of time here. So much nicer( and cheaper) than staying at a hotel. The house was cute and cozy. Nice porches for hanging out. We were tasting Saturday and Sunday, it’s a perfect location. We will be back. The home owner was very easy and available to communicate with.

This property was great. It was very well stocked with everything we could need, including a Keurig, K-cups and creamers. Appreciated an ample supply of paper products, so no need to go buy more. Loved all the nice touches- cute signs and pictures and really comfy furniture. The property was nice and very quiet for sleeping. If we go back up to the area and would recommend it to friends. Thanks!

Great little cottage near the finger lakes
I booked this place in January for our daughter’s graduation from Cornell in Ithaca about 45 minutes away because there were no hotels available, it turned out perfect, the place was super! Clean, well appointed and very peaceful. I would recommend over a cramped hotel room. Thanks

Peaceful and comfortable!
We loved the peace and quiet of this location. The split floor plan was great for us two couples traveling together. We appreciate you having a washer and dryer for us to use one night.
One suggestion is that you add shelving units above the toilets for towels and luggage racks in each bedroom as there was no place to open our suitcase except on the floor. You could move the standing mirror into a corner in the dining room.
The above items can be purchased from Amazon.
Thank you,

Love the personal touch in the bathrooms with soaps and lotions and everything was stocked for our needs. Kitchen was lovely and rustic, but could use a few more pots/pans and some more kitchen utensils. Overall we had a great stay! Thank you so much.

A must stay!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The house was beautiful and super clean. The owner thought of all the details from the decor to the extras. The property was beautiful and quiet. It was far enough away from the crowds but close enough to the wine trail on Seneca Lake. The owners were helpful in naming some restaurants and wineries as well. Would love to go back again.
