May 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful, artistic, huge home We loved the unique spaces and art! We had 8 people and everyone was able to have their own room, except for the teens/college kids who all stayed up on the top level. We also loved walking down to the lake and enjoying all of the spring flowers. It was perfect for our family gathering for a memorial service in Syracuse. ##### Stephanie A. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Karen B. Jun 1, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Family Wedding Lovely property and location. Difficult to deal with Fingerlakes Property Management. Ants in kitchen/bugs in other rooms, burned out light bulb in large first floor bedroom and upstairs closet, windows/screens/sills need a power cleaning in every room, not toiletries or Kleenex, digital entrance was very temperamental ##### Karen B. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael T. Jun 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Great Location! We had a wonderful time at this home. The house is very spacious, and nicely appointed. We also really enjoyed the town of Aurora. The only criticism is that there are 2 coffee pots in the main kitchen, neither of which worked, so we had to bring a pot down from one of the upstairs kitchens. And there are no oven mitts or pot holders in the house, and dish towels were not provided. Also in the description of the house it shows a lovely firepit down by the lake. The firepit did not exist. So that was a bit disappointing. Otherwise we had a wonderful experience! ##### Michael T. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josh A. Oct 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Location The perfect house for relaxing by the lake or spending time with friends. Also, it is a short walk from local shops and bars. I would highly recommend if visiting the Finger Lakes region. ##### Josh A. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerie D. Oct 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome property for a large group. We couldn't have been happier. Beautiful place...everything was perfect! ##### Valerie D.
