Wonderful week at the lake!

Beautiful spot on a beautiful lake. Paul is an excellent host with great communication and his caretaker Mike is absolutely fantastic. The home is clean and comfortable with lots of different spaces to hang out in. Our group loved being on the lake every day, enjoying all it had to offer. Many great memories were made!

Cool Cozy Cabin!

Paul's Cabin was a fantastic find for a Fall getaway on VRBO! Various living levels with a fantastic view overlooking the lake and lots of great space for the family. There is a mile long drive on dirt road to access cabin, so need to be prepared for that, but that just adds to the experience! Close enough to town (20 min) Well equipped, great hot tub and amenities. Caretaker Mike is very accessible for any questions/issues that may arise. Had a fantastic time with the family, it's a hidden gem!!

Coffee 2 Cocktails

Annual girls weekend for 5. This was a new location this year instead of the beach...The serene surroundings were perfect, a little chill in the air and the town of Skaneatles is charming. Basement bedroom did not have adequate heater flow and the overall cabin needed a good clean and some recaulking but we enjoyed the rustic accommodations. Thank you for a great getaway.

Graduation Celebration

We had beautiful weather and enjoyed the incredible views from all levels of the house. Fire pit made for a fun first night celebration. A little disappointed that the hot tub was not in working order and we were not notified about it. Also instructions for wifi did not work and manager did not return our call.

Beautiful cabin and lake

The property was exactly as described. Beautiful lake, beautiful cabin, great boat, beautiful setting. The driveway was a bit scary (for me) but the actual drivers were fine with it. Never used the hot tub or charcoal grill so I don't have an opinion on them. Kitchen table was great for nightly card games. Nightly campfires were awesome. Outside furniture was very good.

Great week with the family

The cabin is beautiful, especially the covered, multi-level decks, which are wide enough to enjoy even when the weather turns rainy. The check-in process requires more coordination than the typical rental because Paul is absolutely right not to have guests find it on their own the first time. The property manager was very helpful answering questions before we drove up so we brought the right things (and left our sea kayaks home) and met up with him to guide us to the house and show us around. He made sure the twin beds on the lower level were pushed together for my son and his wife. What I didn’t realize is they were a little short for my 6’ tall son. They also would have appreciated a full door instead of saloon doors on that bedroom. We rented Paul’s pontoon boat for the week and had a great time with that, exploring the lake, trying our hand at fishing, watching the bald eagles in their nest at the south end of the lake, and tying up at the north end to explore town. We appreciated that some firewood was left on the porch for us - with such a rainy spring it was a real help with the fire pit.There are few biting bugs despite being set in the woods. Tons of steps to get down to the water and back, but the boardwalks and steps are in excellent shape, and the water is as clean and clear as promised. It’s also super-cold this time of year! Nice grocery store and restaurants in charming town, about 30-min drive. Nice hikes and waterfalls also w/in half-hour drive.

Pauls cabin.

Pauls lake house was spectacular. The house had everything we were looking for. Paul also was kind enough to rent his pontoon boat to us for a few days.

Awesome family trip at Paul’s Cabin!

We had an awesome 4th of July week at Paul’s cabin!! We came last year for a long weekend and booked for a full week this summer. The location is great (secluded in the woods with beautiful lake front views), and we loved the dock and boat. We read a previous review that the hot tub wasn’t working, and asked Paul about it who was very responsive and had it fixed and working perfectly for our trip. We couldn’t get our daughter out of it! Loved the campfires at night and hiking up the road in the mornings. I’m sure we will be back! Highly recommend.

Wish we had another week!

This was our first family vacation since our children were little. The cabin was perfect for us. There was plenty of room to gather both inside and out. The trip down to and up from the lake was a bit challenging as was the drive in, but that said it was wonderful to have family time in a beautiful setting! Thank you Paul and crew! ~The Barrett Brigade

Everything you need!

Amazing property towards the south end of skaneateles lake. Right on the water with all of the amenities you need to cook, grill and relax in the hot tub after enjoying a day on one of the cleanest lakes in the country. We look forward to being back next year!

Dreamlike vacation

What a magical cabin in the woods! We were so impressed with the indoor and outdoor living spaces. We spent most of our time outside, on the deck, on the dock, at the fire pit, in the hot tub and, of course, on the lake. Driveway was definitely a challenge. Also have to mention the property manager, Mike. Mike went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect!

Gorgeous cabin

Wonderful log cabin home on crystal clear Skaneateles lake. Paul’s cabin is beautiful and very well equipped. We especially enjoyed the brand new smoker. The house comes with just about everything you need. Would definitely recommend 4-wheel drive and plan your groceries so you minimize trips in and out. You won’t want to leave the lake and the property!

Wonderful Vacation

We stayed for a week over the 4th of July. The place was absolutely amazing. Very relaxing and a ton of space. We had three adults and three children, plenty of room for everyone. Paul the owner was very nice, just and outstanding guy. Mike the property manager was very attentive, also a super nice guy. We will be back to stay again soon!

A spectacular home on beautiful Skaneateles Lake

Although it rained profusely, our stay was enjoyable. The wrap-around porch provided a place outside for socializing, and the interior is special. Paul and his wife have thought of everything to make a stay there hassle free, and Mike, the caretaker, was prompt, available and helpful. The location is remote and spectacular (Take heed to the admonition to have a 4 wheel drive vehicle).
