This is a beautiful, old Victorian home going through the process of renovation. We were a family of 10 and the space met our needs for the past two weeks. We truly enjoyed the expansive front porch, the level access to the lake, the friendly community and boating and swimming activities in the lake.

Beautiful views and so relaxing!

We were in town with family and friends for a race and loved our stay here. The wrap-around porch with rocking chairs overlooking the lake was so magical. The host was very easy to work with, communicative, and accessible. The also had fishing poles, a canoe, and games. We would definitely come back!

House was great, spacious inside and out. Owner was more than helpful and easy to get in touch with including fast responses. We rented for a 3 day weekend ( myself and family ) to say final goodbyes to a recently deceased family member and it was just what we needed. Little to no issues or complaints. We plan to rent the same property in the future

BEAUTIFUL LAKESIDE VIEW

This home leaves you speechless with its beautiful view of the lake. It is kid friendly and has lots of room for guest. The house is nicely furnished and newly renovated but still makes you feel at home! There were even snacks as a welcoming gift. I will definitely be coming back!

Great location and house needs a lot of work!!!

Location is great, lake view with access to beautiful lake. However the house needs a lot of work. First of all the owner needs to find a good cleaning company because we when arrived it looked like it wasn’t even cleaned, dust everywhere, dirty toilet seat, garbage under beds, dirty sheets. Secondly, all bedrooms and bathrooms had no locks and One of the bedrooms had a door standing next to it with no hinges to put it on and one bathroom had a hole instead of a lock with two spoons going through it in casw you have to go you hold the door from the i side. The dining room furniture looks like its about to fall apart. There are no blackout shades nor drapes, just assorted sheers on windows so no privacy and you have to wake up at subrise. Lastly, this house although looks like is in process of ongoing renovation, is very old so no insulation and When you walk or talk everything to a word is heard everywhere.

Multi-Generational Family Vacation at the Lake

Our stay was truly memorable, especially for its stunning sunsets and outdoor activities on the lake. The large covered porch gave us an amazing view of the water, and occasional bald eagle, making it the perfect spot for morning coffee or to unwind in the evenings. With a family ranging in age from 6 to 71, we were able to all enjoy the various parts of the property. The private waterfront was ideal for fishing and swimming, and the provided kayaks and paddleboards made for a fun time on the water. We also enjoyed the spacious lawn and fire pit for evening gatherings and kickball. The location was great as well. Watkins Glen was just a short ride away with access to grocery and convenience stores, boat rentals, and plenty of breweries and wineries within minutes. The owner was very helpful and accommodating providing suggestions and catering to any requests that we had. Overall, the combination of the beautiful views and outdoor activities made our vacation very enjoyable and great to come together as a family.
