What a find!!
After reading the other reviews, we booked this cottage and boy did it deliver! Amazing views, a hammock, firepit, and a perfect sun porch for reading, that we will return to enjoy in warmer weather. Inside, everything has been thought of and we wanted for nothing. We enjoyed being able to bring our dog, as well. Julie was attentive and quick to respond to any inquiries we had. You will not be disappointed so book it already!pup

Bridesmaids stay
There were 5 ladies and we loved the stay. We didn’t see a larger skillet for breakfast. We ran the washer and dryer before leaving and loaded the dishwasher but did not see the dish pods under sink. Also there were spiders in door ways. Oh and be ware if you pull the flat screen tv out, or is left out as when you turn the fan on, it will catch it.

Wow, just WOW!
A friend and I stayed at this cottage for a one night. Upon opening the door we immediately knew we made the right choice. This older cottage has been remodeled and appointed exquisitely. The owner has an eye for detail and made sure the small cottage had special extras for the guests. This rental really stands out compared to others I have seen in the area. I will stay
here again when in the area and recommend it to my friends.

Weekend Erie Trip
We liked the house, it fit our needs for our plans in Erie. The sunset views over the lake were spectacular. Very clean, Julie was a fast with email replies and communication. The gas fireplace on Friday night was nice while overlooking the lake in the evening. Breakfast was easy in the kitchen both mornings, it had everything we needed for the 3 of us. Well thought out layout and a lot of attention to details. My daughter loved soaking in the huge bathtub Saturday night. Sitting on the front porch looking out over the lake with coffee in the morning is a treat. We spent Saturday on the Isle, paddleboarding, kayaking, local Meadery was great. For us, just sitting on the beach and talking, catching up is important. We used the firepit to cook our Saturday night meal, we brought our own cast iron cookware and then sat around it afterwards. Checkout was easy with very clear instructions.

We loved our time at this cozy cottage. It was clean and modern with lots of snuggly spots to enjoy the views of Lake Erie. It was the perfect location for exploring Chautauqua county’s many picturesque towns and villages, both along Lake Erie and into Lake Chautauqua.

Very comfortable cottage with a great view of the lake. Cold weather prevented full enjoyment of the outside deck, but enclosed porch and well-thought out interior still made this an excellent choice without being weather-dependent. Perfect spot to rest and recharge - I look forward to returning!

The property was as amazing as the photos depicted!
Our late November stay was ugly weather in New York State so we did not get to enjoy all that this amazing property offers on the banks of Lake Erie.
