Beautiful house

The house was great, the owner took great care in decorating it. Everyone had a great time. Only complaint is with the lake seaweed and algae. We werent able to use the lake. I would stay again if the town would do something about that. Also, the owner was lovely to deal with

Great property great Owner.

It was a great place to stay. Has a pontoon boat for rental right at the dock. Just ran up for a weekend to go fishing and had a great time. The owner was very helpful and available if you need anything. Already planning my next trip off.

Memorable Family Vacation

Our stay here was absolutely wonderful. My families last stay in Chautauqua Lake was in 2015 and my father passed 2 months later. Since that time, it has been difficult for our family to come back for a vacation. We decided this was the year! Our stay was absolutely wonderful. So many family memories were made. Candy and Dave, our hosts, were great to work with. They were available for any questions we had. The listing was everything we expected and more. The place very spacious, spotless and everything we needed was there so we could just enjoy ourselves from the minute we got there. Thanks Candy and Dave for a great time!!

Nice place!

The house was clean with plenty of comfortable sleeping space for our group of 12. The weather was rainy and cold, but we found plenty else to do at the house...lots of board games and space underneath the awning out back was protected from the rain. We visited nearby Long Point State Park and the weather didn't stop us from slaying fish on Lake Chatauqua! What a beautiful place, and the fish are plentiful! We caught mostly rock bass, perch, and bluegill. There's a nice fish cleaning station outside, which came in very useful. The kids made use of the canoe, the kayaks, and the corn hole boards, when we had breaks in the rain. The owners could not have been more responsive and helpful. Owner Dave stopped over when we first arrived and the day before we left. It was very nice getting to meet him. The only negative was the noise from the nearby highway. Highly recommend!

Family vacation

just returned from a wonderful week at the Jetts beautiful lake cottage !! There were 10 of us plenty of room for all . Kids enjoyed the bikes, kyacks, and canoe. We all enjoyed playing corn hole and sitting by the fire eating smores. We also rented the boat for the week , very nice boat , although we only got to enjoy it for couple hours due to the unexpected chilly weather and smoke from the canadian fires. The cottage was more than expected, very clean ,well organized. The Jetts were very easy to work with. Our over all experience with this rental was exceptional . would rent this again in a heartbeat !!!

Great, relaxing stay!

This house was spotless, comfortable, a great location close to downtown Bemus Point with nice neighborhoods to walk in and enjoy the fall weather. It was a beautiful location right on the lake. Although we did not use the pontoon boat or kayaks we loved the patio, yard and fire pit and just sitting looking at the water. The sunporch was my favorite. The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was like any house the hub of activity. There was plenty of counter space. All the essentials were there cups, coffee pot, toaster, plates, etc. plus pitchers and platters. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!

Great place to stay!

This is one of those great houses that from the outside you think it isn't much.. Once inside you feel the old charm of the house and the lake. Great views of the lake and dock. Having a little fire at night and enjoying the lake was great.. But with everything there is one down side. The freeway bridge is right next to where the property is... With that being said you will hear some highway noises but nothing that I would say is obnoxious. Overall we will be back to vacation at this property!!

Successful Family Vacation Site

This property is well-maintained, and you can tell the owners really care about the place. Spic & Span clean! The floors are all wood and they shined. Bedrooms are small, but adequate. It was nice to have the landing with the extra bunk beds. The bathroom upstairs is great! The antique amenities add a real quaintness to the place. It is easy to walk or bike to Bemus Point from there. We used the bikes, the canoe, the kayaks and we rented the pontoon boat the whole time. All were great for our family. The two outdoor picnic tables are painted nicely, do not need tablecloths...and the extra table near the grill is handy. Our guys used the fish sink on the side of the house. Ad we played Corn Toss and badminton in the very large yard, while having fires in the firepit several nights. There were amazingly no mosquitos our whole trip! The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need. We cooked every meal so maybe a few more "leftover containers" would be nice. Bring your own towels (bath & beach), shampoo and bar soap. There is starter TP, and paper towels. We brought a large cook-pot which I was glad we did. There's plenty of silverware & dishes, glasses & coffee cups. The oven was gas & antique and worked very well actually. The enclosed porch a lovely place for many to sit, air conditioned with nice fans. All in all I cannot think of a downside to this place, except of course the Bridge is nearby and there are a lot of "traffic" sounds from it. But it didn't hamper our vacation in the least! (At night it sounds like waves on a beach, lol) If you want one suggestion it would be to put in a clothesline for our towels & suits to dry on, and add more hooks to the bathroom walls for towels, etc. Minor things! We loved it there and treasured our time on Lake Chautauqua. (If you're a pickleball person, you can walk to the courts on Mon, Tues, Thurs, Sat by 9am)

Great stay at Bemus Point - 10 of us and plenty of room!!!!

This home was well appointed and beautifully decorated. The pictures were exactly as what you see in the listing but the rooms actually felt larger. The upstairs bedrooms were great sizes and all beds were very comfortable. I like to watch TV before bed and even the pull out couch was comfortable (which is not always the case.) The upstairs bathroom is huge and the downstairs bathroom and shower was also roomy. Loved all the antiques (yet modern) and interesting decor. I have never seen a rental with so many board games and books, etc. Really gives you the feel of years ago, so tell the kids to put away their cell phones and play games with family/friends! The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, utensils and glassware and the dishwasher is a great size for large groups. The outdoor covered patio is great and has plenty of room for 12 to eat at the picnic tables. The grill was also top notch. We rented the boat, which was fantastic. The yard is flat so we played bocci, corn-hole and jarts. The 5 bikes were an added bonus. Our 13 years olds had a blast riding them to Bemus Point and it was a quiet and safe neighborhood. Plus there was 2 kayaks and 1 canoe that the kids enjoyed. Even though the bridge was right there, we did not mind it a bit. Nights were great with the fire pit and all the amazing Adirondack chairs around it!The town of Bemus Point was very charming. Hosts are wonderful and attentive to anything you need. Thanks Dave and Candy for a wonderful week!!!!

The cottage was absolutely spotless and comfortable for our group of 12. The grandchildren had a very nice yard to play in, and we enjoyed a few campfires in the evenings. Also a short distance to the center of Bemus point, where we enjoyed our ice cream, and our walks through town!
