My stay was a girls weekend with 2 of my friends from high school. The arrangements worked well with my friends each getting a bedroom and myself sleeping on an air mattress in the living room. The views of the water were delightful and we enjoyed our morning coffee and evening dinners either out on the screened in porch or on the deck. The house had most of the utensils we needed to prepare the meals we ate at home. Kimberlee was great to work with, providing recommendations for places to go and keeping us informed on important things happening during our stay. We collectively agreed we would stay again.

Artist’s Retreat and Family Hangout All in OneThis cottage was absolute perfection—and we’ll definitely be back. I'm an artist, and the views were so inspiring I painted over thirty pieces during our stay!I was there with my wife and our 13-year-old child, and as a family getaway, it was just as magical. There was something for each of us: comfy seating, luxurious beds, and that dreamy sunporch! And don’t even get me started on the lake—it was everything.The community was welcoming, and the cottage had everything we needed, including a fully stocked kitchen with all the pots, pans, and utensils to cook fun meals together.We spent our days relaxing, playing games, swimming, and soaking in the peace of it all. My family recharged, and I left creatively renewed. We truly didn’t want to leave!

Beautiful Property!

This was our first time staying in the area and Kimberlee couldn’t have been more accommodating! She answered all my questions and was a pleasure to work with. We will definitely stay again when we are back in the area.

Beautiful place, wonderful host

Sublime sunsets indeed! The location is spectacular; with a great screened porch and deck for enjoying Cayuga. Incredible sunset views. Very quiet pleasant little road of cottages to walk down, little waterfalls all along the way. Cottage is extremely nice also, and the host wonderfully communicative and helpful. Thank you Kimberly!
