Second year staying at this cabin!
We love this place. We spent our 5th anniversary here last year and loved it so much, we booked it for this year. Absolutely did not disappoint. We loved it and we even got to meet the host this time! She gave us some great recommendations on local places to visit. Our dog loves it, too. The place is so clean and is exactly the kind of cozy vibe we look for. We can’t wait for next year. Thank you!

Romulus NY - Cayuga Lake
We atayed here while in town for a retirement party in the area. The cabin seems like brand new. It was spotless and looked better in person then the photos online. The beds are firm/hard which worked for me but may not work for some. The owners are very responsive and easy to deal with. I would recommend it for a peaceful getaway. I would note that you do not have a view of the lake which was a disappointing surprise. Phtots online lead you to think there is a view.We also observed the price drop within a few hours of payment ans then again a day or two later which was surprising.

A great getaway for our anniversary!
We loved our stay! We celebrated our five year wedding anniversary here. The weather was quite rainy, so it was nice to be able to come back to our cabin to just cozy up. We were very comfortable, and our dog enjoyed the accommodations as well! We’ve already booked the cabin for our wedding anniversary next year. Thank you for the great experience and easy check-in/check-out procedures!

Wonderful Finger Lakes vacation
The cottage was immaculately clean. The hosts Sheryl & Jim were very friendly and made sure right away that everything was was up to our expectations. Beautiful location in the heart of the Finger Lakes wine country. There were several cideries, breweries and distilleries nearby. No need to mention the wineries nearby, too numerous to count. Conveniently located within a short drive to three State Parks, Samson on Seneca Lake, Taughannock Falls, & Cayuga Lake state park al within about a 20 minute drive.
