A perfect place to spend a week at the finger lakes. The house was very well appointed with furniture and accessories. The host was wonderful I can’t wait to return next year.
This home is right on the lake. Inside is well appointed and is bigger than the photos convey. The backyard has a lovely porch to sit and relax while enjoying the view of the lake. The fenced in yard space for the dogs was awesome. We will be back!
A perfect getaway for our family and our one year old Bernese. We spent most of our time on the patio , the fire pit and floating in the lake. This house has the most comfortable beds, a kitchen that is equipped( we like to cook as a family). Our Bernese even had his own fenced in yard.We have booked a return visit.
The house was awesome and exactly as described! It was the perfect lake house getaway! Margaret has also gone above and beyond to make the home pet friendly. Would love to stay here again!
Perfect spot for our Cayuga stay. House is cozy and dog friendly. Hard to beat that combo in such an amazing lake front property. 10/10 would recommend for travelers with or without canine companions.
Great property and location, incredible amenities, VERY clean, responsive and caring host, enjoyable stay.
Stayed for 4 days with our family and our dog and had an amazing and relaxing time. Margaret is an incredible host and always available to help.
This was our second stay at Margaret’s lake house! Everything was beautiful and we all had so much fun. Margaret has covered all the details. Too many superlatives to list! Thank you Margaret- we will definitely be back.
2nd time staying. Hostess is wonderful and prompt if any questions or problem.
There were 6 adults, plenty of room. Beautiful deck that overlooks the lake, beautiful sunsets. Dock is close for boat.
We are looking forwsrd to our next stay.
The house was very clean when we arrived. the kitchen was very organized and well labeled. The view of the lake can't be beat!
I was able to dock my 18 ft deep V boat without any problems, although the dock is a bit shallow. Keep the motor trimmed up and it's fine.
This property was the perfect low key, dog friendly, lake vacation. It was our first time taking our dog on vacation and it was perfect. The home was fully equipped for all our needs. Easy access to the lake. We rented a pontoon boat and the dock was convenient. The owner was very attentive to all our needs. Will definitely stay again.
House was great. It was so clean. Very roomy and great for my dogs as well. Margaret was such a wonderful host....thank you so much! My family and i had such a great time. We brought our boat. The lake was beautiful!!!
This home had all that was advertised and then some. The house is very clean. It has a great view of the lake with easy access. The boat launch is less than 4 miles down the road with a dock on the property. There is plenty of parking and room for the boat trailer. Very lovely setting. I would defiantly stay there again.
Nice house, every drawer, light switch, closet door is labeled so you know exactly what is where. Practically everything you need is there! Quiet neighborhood. Just want to mention to those with any leg issues , there is a slope to go down to the water, then back up to the house. The step out from the Florida room was difficult for me as I have bad knees, but there are plenty of other exits to use. We felt very comfortable there!
We stayed on Lake Cayuga for a week in August and had a great time.
Margaret was a phenomenal host. Any questions we had were answered very quickly.
The house was very clean, and had everything you needed to enjoy your stay. The beds were very comfortable. The showers had great water pressure. Most all of our time was spent on the backyard Patio and in the sun room, plenty of room for the four of us that were there and our dogs. You can easily fit 6 people.
We started our days off paddling around, using the provided kayaks, and finished it with a fire in the fire pit overlooking the lake.
We would stay here again
We loved our stay at Margaret’s vacation getaway! It really was the perfect spot for our family. The house has plenty of space for a family but is also cozy and quiet for a couple. We had a little of both on our trip with our adult daughters and their families visiting during our stay. The location is superb with stunning views no matter the time of day! Our dogs were a handful at times, but Margaret was understanding and soooo supportive of our rescue mutts! We also discovered that one of the dogs LOVES the water! The property has multiple hang-out spots with comfortable chairs, tables and sun umbrellas. It wasn’t particularly hot while we were there, but the AC in the building worked really well when we needed it. The property has every appliance you could need and the kitchen, laundry room and bathrooms were well stocked. All in all, I don’t want to rave too much about our stay in case Margaret gets flooded with reservations and there’s no room for us to return next year!
Wonderful home on a beautiful property with easy access to the lake. (My dogs loved it!) . Margaret was very helpful but did not intrude on our time there. We had a fabulous time.
We had a wonderful week on the lake. The house was clean, well organized and provided everything we needed. The owner is very responsive and helpful. Thank you!
Great place.Owner was on top of everything, very nice petson.
