Our adult family vacationed at this place and enjoyed an awesome week. Weather favored our use of the pool every single day, and the house was equipped with everything that one would want to relax and enjoy the area. Visually the area is of postcard quality and the house and grounds afforded total privacy(I mean turn off the lights and see nothing but sky and stars privacy). Of equal if not greater note, Zach, our host who is aptly described as “premier”, helped us well before as well as during our stay, answering questions and furnishing references to nearby local shops and businesses that literally set our table during the week.

Has potential but poorly maintained

Zach was a great host leading up to check in, very communicative. Once we got to the property it was clear the photos in the listing were not reflective of present day and the conditions were sub par. The property it’s self is in amazing and has potential to be a destination spot. It’s in a beautiful secluded location, but the grounds and interior leaves a lot to be desired and isn’t worth the nightly price. Bathrooms are nice and kitchen is cute. We let Zach know we were displeased and received a full refund, so he was receptive

Amazing property, amazing host

My wife and I stayed at this property along with our two dogs looking for an escape from the city and to celebrate our anniversary, and we could not have picked a better place! The house was large with multiple bedrooms, plenty of space, and all the basic amenities you could need. It is a bit secluded which was nice not to be around neighbors for a change, but still not too far from Skaneateles (about 20 min drive) or Ithaca (45-60 min). The backyard was well maintained and has a wonderful view of the lake, making it a perfect place for a nighttime fire, relaxing by the pool/hot tub, or just enjoying the calm sounds and views of nature. Zach was the absolute perfect host. He checked in with us after our check in time to make sure we had everything we needed (which we did). He recommended awesome spots for dinner in Skaneateles (Gilda’s and The Elephant and the Dove) and some local hiking trails. We felt very comfortable at this property and in good hands with Zach if we needed anything. I am definitely keeping this property in mind if we ever come back to the region and would highly recommend it!

Beautiful views

Wow! The views from the backyard and large picture windows is stunning! We stayed in mid-August 2024. The weather was mild with occasional rain rolling through, but that didn't adversely affect our trip. It's neat to be in a cloud when it's raining! The house was well-appointed and the adults and children enjoyed the games, hot tub, pool, walking the grounds, and genrally relaxing. The house is about 20 minutes from the main town and I think thats the closest grocery store too, fyi to future visitors. Our youngest asked if we could celebrate his birthday at the lake house again next summer, 😆

Relaxing vacation

My family and I stayed here for a week the end of July. we had the best time. The house is beautiful with a lot of room to spread out. Myself, husband, son (15), my parents and brother and sister stayed here. We loved the property so pretty and peaceful. The pool, hot tub, outside area and deck upstairs were awesome. Shared a lot of memories and made new ones, laughing, eating, drinking, watching the dogs run around. The lake view was amazing and perfect to wake up to every morning. Skaneateles is a quint little village with good restaurants. Patisserie Bakery, Skaneateles bakery, Sherwood Inn all worth a trip to visit. Dashers Corner Pub in Homer is one of my new favorites, wish it wasn’t so far from home. Excellent vacation!!

A wonderful experience

First informals I have to say that Zach was an amazing host. Probably the best experience I’ve ever had with communicating with someone. This is our 14th VRBO in the finger Lakes. The last one we had was a terrible experience Skaneateles Lake. Well, I was concerned so I reached out to Zach and told him what happened the last time. I brought all my concerns to him to make sure I was comfortable. He actually did a FaceTime with me to show how clean his place was how and how we had plenty of what we needed in the kitchen and throughout the house the house was spotless, the view amazing and it was a wonderful time. I would highly recommend this place if you want to visit the finger lakes.
