Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
Great location and clean place. Family loved our experiences on the dock, s'mores, and the hot tub. The host was helpful and quick to respond. Our family could manage the steps to the Lake (140 steps), but might be a challenge for others. Overall, our family enjoyed the stay and memories.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
This house/cabin was very clean, up to date and had a lot of amenities, but the many stairs up to the house and many many stairs down to the water was a big surprise to us. There were many positives about the house. The hot tub worked great and there was a beautiful view from the top deck while sitting in it overlooking the water. Nothing was lacking in the house/cabin (cute coffee station, plenty of pillows, sheets, blankets, etc.) and we felt very comfortable in it. Lake Seneca wineries and Lake Keuka wineries were all within a short driving distance. Monica was a great communicator and was very responsive! A few negatives: There were 140 stairs to climb to get down to the water's edge (and thus also the fire pit and dock), and the 30-40 stairs up to the house from the parking area. This was surprising. It did not have a big impact on our weekend (we were there in early April and we were all able to climb them). However, if we had young children or older parents with us, it would have had a large impact on our weekend. We also discovered that there are no walking trails along Lake Seneca's lake's edge that are close by. But all in all, it was a very nice house with a great host, I was just disappointed about the access to it and to the water.
