Russell Downerville State Forest Hotels

"In several encounters, the staff were proactive and ultra-helpful. Kassia even read my requirement for stair-free access and rebooked my room accordingly. Unfortunately, there is no elevator to the second floor. The room was freshly renovated, with custom cabinetry and bathroom touches. The outlets above the hanging night stands were especially nice. However, the fridge was loose and a possible fall risk. The beds were too soft for my taste. The cleaner missed a little here and there -- some head hairs in the sink and spots on the central nightstand. I wiped it myself and all good. Easy fix. My biggest complaint is that the room lacked a desk for working. I wound up making a pillow table on one of the beds. All that thoughtful design skipped a major element. And there was room for it, too, so just a head-scratcher. Location-wise, it's downtown, such as that is. It has a sizable lot, patio with tables overlooking the river, and it's across the street from a bagel café', ice cream shop, and movie theater. Hard to be disappointed. The breakfast was very nice and featured fruits, yogurt, various milk types, cereal, breads, eggs, sausage links, and a make-your-own Belgian waffle station. I wish they had takeout containers to carry back to your room. Another guest helped me carry the paper plates. Overall, would definitely stay again."

"Boyd Pond was the destination for our most recent sister getaway. This cabin was incredibly welcoming and CLEAN! We did not bring our pets with us but it was so wonderful to see how pet-friendly the rental was...food/water dishes, poo bags, leashes, etc. The kitchen with stocked with everything we needed and more. Beds were comfortable and we stayed nice and warm throughout our snowy stay. Our host was gracious and responsive which is always a plus! We would not hesitate to book a repeat stay. "

"Excellent place to stay in Canton NY!"

"Everything was new and clean. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Great place to stay."

"The kitchen is professional level. The rooms are great. I love the mix of an old house that has been modernized. This is the best place I have rented in the Canton area."

"The room was clean and the staff was really helpful"

"We had a wonderful stay at this cozy home with extraordinary lake views from almost every room in the house. It was beautiful to see the fall colors of the trees and the play of light on the surface of the water! Jim and Katie are great and caring hosts and helped us to find their lovely vacation house at night. Thanks a lot! "

"Wonderful! We took advantage of everything this property had to offer and enjoyed every minute. We lounged around the fire pit, went boating, paddle boarding, and played games. There were some beautiful hiking trails nearby, apple picking, My mother turned 80 this week and she really enjoyed winning the contest and 2 bonus prizes. She wants me to thank John and Donna for their hospitality. Thank you for lending us your home and making our stay special. "

"Property was even better than expected! Exactly what my family was hoping for. We had a great time fishing, boating and relaxing by the fire, with an amazing view. Property was clean and had the all the necessities we needed. Owners were kind and accommodating. We will be booking again for next year! "
