Vintage getaway

This was a perfectly pristine 70s vintage cottage with all the modern amenities. The view is perfect and worth a stay.

Seneca sunsets

A great family getaway, with something for everyone - water fun, winery visits, museum stops, just hanging on the amazing deck, firepit storytelling and sunsets. Clean rooms, comfy seating, and a kitchen with everything necessary to make group meals. Thanks for a great time!

Weekend at Knotty and Nice

Four adults were very comfortable at Knotty and Nice, where we particularly enjoyed the deck and lake views. VRBO was extremely helpful to me when the property's management company caused confusion (confusing forms; contradictory info from different employees) during the reservation process.

Rustic with a fantastic view

We were very happy with the property. It is older but clean. No water cooler as pictured and no dishwasher, although we were given dishwasher tabs???? Other than that, fire pit was great, access to water no stairs - beautiful.

Fingerlakes Girls Getaway

This is our 3rd year coming to the Fingerlakes for our annual girls trip and it did not disappoint! This was the closest we have been to our favorite winery and everything was only a couple minute drive to other establishments. The groundsmen was there to say hello and greet us and was super hospitable! The view was gorgeous and it was so nice to sit out on the deck. The only issue we had was the ants. Normally I am not bothered by bugs knowing we are in a lake setting and in a house with tons of wood floors, beams and walls, but the ants were pretty bad. I woke up to a few dead in my bed. And others had issues in their rooms also but just with bugs. Besides that it was a wonderful stay and clean and would come again!

Great for kids

We enjoyed our stay in the cabin! A bit of yard for the kids to run, a safe road, well-sized bedrooms, and well-stocked kitchen.
