Family fun right on the lake
First of all, we saw a bald eagle grab a fish out of the lake right in front of the dock, and fly away with it. The place was clean and had everything we needed. Can’t beat the location right on the water and the wine trail

Great Stay in the Finger Lakes!
We very much enjoyed our stay in Romulus! The location of the house was great for all of our various adventures. It was so nice to come back to the house and relax after exploring parks, vineyards, and breweries. The kids loved fishing off the docks in the morning and going for canoe paddles. The owners were so nice and accommodating. We forgot a sweatshirt and they happily mailed it back to us.

Lovely Lake Home with Gorgeous Lake Views
Our family of four had a perfect escape at this lovely lake home, which had everything we needed for a wonderful getaway! Having lived for five years in Ithaca, we cherish our memories of boating, visiting wineries, and enjoying the beauty of the Finger Lakes region. Deanna’s home was spacious, inviting, and ideal for unplugging and reconnecting as a family. Bringing our boat was a breeze, thanks to the convenient launch up the road and the boat lift at the property. We would absolutely return to this stunning lakefront home. Highly recommended!

Spacious Home with Great Amenities
We had a great stay in this spacious home, perfect for our group of eight! The campfire was a lovely touch, and it was convenient to have wood available nearby. We enjoyed the awesome assortment of watercraft items, including kayaks, a paddle board, a lily pad, and life vests. The kitchen was well-stocked with cooking essentials and had plenty of empty drawers for our food. It was also nice and quiet, with interesting places nearby. The refrigerator needed a bit of cleaning with a number of outdated items left behind by previous guests. Despite this, we had a wonderful time overall!

All the comforts of home...and more!
My fiancee, our dog Holly, and I had wonderful stay at this gem of a lake house. The views were gorgeous and a joy to wake up to every morning. We felt right at home the minute we walked in the door. The home had everything we needed to makes meals, watch movies at night with a bottle of wine, and enjoy coffee each morning in the deck. Deanna provided us with suggestions of wineries and parks. These suggestions were spot on and we truly enjoyed ourselves. This gave both of us the most needed vacation and a beautiful place to relax. The views from the home has even inspired us to look into the area for our future wedding. Thank you for opening up your beautiful home to us!!!

Great Vacation Spot
We spent a week at this beautiful property and loved every moment of it. The house is comfortable and spacious with amazing lakefront. It’s conveniently located near tons of wineries, breweries, and cideries, as well as plenty of outdoor activities, though we also spent a lot of time sitting by the water with a good book. Communication with the owners was quick and friendly. This trip has definitely encouraged to visit the gorgeous Finger Lakes region again soon.

Our stay was fabulous! Easy to get in, communication with owner was super easy. The house was right on the water so kids could paddle board, kayak and swim from shore. The house allowed a dog, so she was able to come and loved the water too! Location is close to a bunch of wineries, easy access to anywhere! Loved our stay would definitely recommend this property!

Birthday at the Lake
We spent the week at the Lake House for my wife's 60th birthday with our children. The property was very clean and extremely well stocked. The layout was very efficient and there was plenty of room for entertaining. The only downside was that it was a little far from other activities on rainy days.

Great place to stay & very responsive host
This house is a great place to stay at for a finger lakes vacation. My family thoroughly enjoyed their time in the house, on the deck, out on the back beach, and at the wineries, breweries, and cideries close by. There is a propane fire pit on the deck with a lot of outside seating, a large black stone grill that works perfectly, and a fire pit down on the rocky beach by the water. It's the perfect oasis and is very private. My family rented a pontoon boat and we were able to pull it right up to the dock to hop onto! Super convenient location, cozy inside, and all around good vibes. The host is super accommodating, flexible, and responsive. Upon arrival, there was a welcome sign along with a bottle of wine. Super sweet! I would suggest looking into this property if you like visiting the local wineries, breweries, cideries, and state parks. Not only did we enjoy the food and drinks close by, we also had some great hikes 15-20 minutes from the house. There is a winery and brewery across the street from the house which was super convenient for me and my family. Additionally, the newly renovated bathroom has an awesome shower and had a sauna type vibe. Super relaxing. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you Deanna for your hospitality!

Peaceful Lake Weekend
Our family spent a long weekend at this beautiful lakehouse to attend a funeral memorial. The host was responsive, kind and accommodating. The house is beautiful and the view spectacular. We needed a peaceful retreat that was still not far from the town, and this was it. Also, Buttonwood Winery is diagonally across the street. Thanks for a great stay. We’ll be back.

An Oasis Like No Other!!
We stayed here for the holiday weekend and it was by far an incredible experience. I have a dog and a kid and we couldn’t have felt more comfortable. This is probably going to be the last family trip we take our old man pup on and it gave us some of the best memories.
The hosts were incredibly kind and fast with their responses. There are so many fun thing to do at the lake house that made our experience one of the best ones we could have had. There are tons of wineries, breweries and parks with unbelievable views.
I highly recommend this place!!
