Lovely getaway
The place was great, roomy for just the two of us and our dog. I loved taking the short walk down to the lakeshore each morning and especially at night to see all the stars. Hosts were more than accommodating and friendly. We'll definitely stay here again!

A suggestion
since the property owner recommends that guests use bottled water for drinking, a couple of bottles to get a new guest started would be appreciated. also some detail on what is in the house before we have to ask. beautiful and clean property. we were not there to take advantage of all the amenities because we were having a family reunion off site but we would visit again.

Ideal Location
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the cottage. Very serene setting, yet so close to the village, which is a 25 minute walk away. Wonderful sunsets from the dock. Thanks to Andy!

Beautiful area and wonderful cabin
Our cabin was in a very private area with access to the lake. That is exactly what we we were looking for—privacy, quiet, and a peaceful natural area with birds and our special rabbit whom we saw frequently. We loved the dock area and spent a lot of time there just looking at the lake. We took our boards and kayak out every day to explore the beautiful, clean waters of the lake. It was a wonderful experience. The cabin was comfortable and clean, with all necessities provided. I appreciated the coffee-table book about the Finger Lakes, which made me think about the history of the region and its progressive communities. The back porch and campfire area were also comfy, and we used them a lot. I hope that cabins like ours continue to be offered to Skaneateles visitors, and that the neighborhood does not become increasingly posh and exclusive.

Beautiful lake!
We enjoyed our stay at Skaneateles lake. The cottage has lake access, which is where we launched our kayaks from. The lake was quiet and calm during our stay! Andy is very nice and was responsive to my questions. Tyson enjoyed our getaway!

Quaint Cottage
This property was perfect for our needs. We were gone most days, but we did enjoy the scenery surrounding the cottage. It was gorgeous. It fit 3 adults nicely. I wouldn't recommend any more than 4. The property manager was communicative and checking in and out was a breeze.

Relaxing weekend
The cabin had all the amenities listed and was a nice home away from home. The interior was clean and ready for our visit. Just a short walk from the cabin, the sitting area down by the lake was very peaceful. The neighborhood was quiet and close to areas we wanted to see, including Syracuse, Seneca Falls, and Auburn.
