Great vacation

The house is better than pictured and very well maintained. Beds are very comfortable. We enjoyed having coffee and dinner on the deck. The sunsets over the lake were great. We used the kayaks provided and explored the lake which is the prefect size and pretty quiet. We will stay there again!

Really Perfect

We took our daughter, son in law and two young grandchildren for a one week stay. The house was much prettier than we expected, yet still a comfortable lake house feel. The bedrooms are very large and the layout allows for two families to have privacy (upstairs has its own porch and sitting area. We rented a boat for the week and had a lovely vacation! Owners very responsive, house well stockedif you forget anything. Peaceful.

BEST VRBO I have experienced

I have stayed at VRBOs overseas and nationally. Sunset Celebrations is the BEST ever. They make sure that check in is easy. The house is immaculate. We have been visiting the Finger Lakes for 25 years. Give this place 5 stars

Relaxing lake life

This home was perfect. Beautiful inside, and excellent outside. Nice full length deck for coffee in the am and relaxing with a beverage in the pm. Room for lawn games, and a relaxing eve around the firepit. We did not have time to use the available water equipment, but it was available. Property is close to wineries and restaurants nearby. The Hosts were very accommodating offering late checkout.

Perfect location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The home was very clean and very comfortable and close to my son who lives in the area. It was really nice that the water depth was shallower closer to the shore so my grandsons were able to stand and play easily. It was a plus to have access to the canoe, kayaks, and paddle board. The home owner was super to work with and very accommodating. I would definitely rent this home again.

We enjoyed our week here at Lamoka Lake very relaxing! Our grandkids loved fishing and swimming! The kitchen set up was great! The only bad thing that happened is our grandson cut his toe in the lake so make sure you wear shoes or clogs in the lake!

Very nice lake house

We enjoyed our stay here. It was nice to have access to a garage for our car as well as assorted water craft and life jackets. The home was clean and well stocked. The view of the lake from both the kitchen and back deck was beautiful and relaxing. The owner was very prompt in all communication. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed our morning walks there with our pups. Thank you!

Peaceful lakefront property with plenty fun things to do

Updated and comfortable house with amazing views of the lake from almost every room, especially the kitchen. Lakefront property for very easy access to lots of lake fun…row boat, kayak, canoe, paddle board, swimming and fishing. Mostly fenced in yard, perfect for pets to enjoy the family fun.

Nice rental on a pretty lake

This is a very nice home, very clean, and a great kitchen for cooking. Neighborhood is a little bit of a mixed bag, but the house itself and the lake both make it worth the stay. Owner was great communicating and offering flexibility.

Our week at Lake Lamoka

This property and location lived up to the pictures and then some. It was a beautiful, spacious, functional and very relaxing setting. The lake is lovely, very calm in the morning and evening and not very busy. Kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding or row boating were very easy around this scenic lake. I highly recommend this property.

Water Views Galore

One of the nicest things about this property is that not only are you right on the lake but you have a view of the water in nearly every room. There is also a nice long deck in back from which to enjoy the water, as well. The location is also great for accessing pretty much anything you want to do in the Finger Lakes region, especially Penn Yan, Watkins Glen, and Hammondsport. For those traveling with a dog, do take note that the yard is not completely fenced in. While the fence provides privacy from the road, fido won't be able to wander at will. The road is a fairly quiet one, so it's good for walking your dog, as is the road going up to the cemetery. Our dog never tired of exploring both. Being able to park the car in the garage, especially on hotter days was something of a luxury, as well. Families might want to take note that the two bedrooms upstairs are set up with pocket doors in-between bedrooms, so there's the option for a little privacy but also easy communication for the kids to hang out together in their own space. Also there is nice flexibility for at-counter eating in the kitchen or table seating in the dining area. All-in-all a pretty comfortable lake house.

Quiet Lake House with lots of privacy

The pictures in the listing didn’t do the house justice. It was roomier than it appeared and the living room/ dining room combo was a great gathering space with a full view of the lake. Everything was in good working order, the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook at home, and the beds were very comfortable. There was a slight miscommunication about check in but the landlord resolved it quickly. We had a great time and would definitely rent this place again

Beautiful vacation rental

Located on a smaller, more private lake, this rental has it all. Spotlessly clean and well-kept, the rooms are large yet cozy. Very comfortable beds, linens, towels. Great water pressure on shower. Fully equipped kitchen. The deck, backing onto the lake, and the sunset views make this place a home run.

Great House

Very easy to check in, and questions are answered promptly. The layout of the house was terrific... my parents took the master downstairs and my kids and my wife and I were upstairs in the adjoining rooms which worked out really well. The setting with the lake is very pretty and sitting on the dock with our feet in the water was a pleasure. Overall, a great house and one that we really enjoyed.

Relaxing family vacation

The property is exactly as described. It is comfortable and had all the necessary conveniences. (We did miss a blender though). Even with a Baptist Summer Camp down the road, the lake area was quiet and the lake was wonderful for rowing, canoeing and kayaking and swimming and the neighbors we met were very friendly.
