House was beautiful and a great use of space. We had wedding to go to and it housed our family well. Scott and cindy are very reaponsive and wonderful hosts.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The host was accommodating and great with communication. It had everything we needed and plenty of space. It was clean and large. We would stay here again!
This was a great option for our family, bringing together 3 generations. The layout was great, and worked well to have a "bunk room" for teen - college age cousins, with private bedrooms otherwise. The kitchen was in fact fully stocked, which was great because we did prepare meals for the group. The game room was a hit as well. We opted to bring linens because we thought it might be challenging to do that much laundry as we were trying to gather up. Greek Peak wasn't opened quite yet when we were here, but it certainly would have been really easy to ski there from this house (very close).
This is our second year renting this house as a group. The house is so comfortable for our three families- There are fun places for the teens to hang, places for adults to hang and great quiet bedrooms with comfortable beds.
The kitchen is fully outfitted with all items needed to make big family meals and have wonderful times together. We didn't use the hot tub, fireplaces or fire pit this year, but did last and loved them. It makes us want to stay longer next year. Thank you for sharing the house with us! We hope you'll host us next year!
The house was perfect for my extended family attending my niece's graduation from Cortland. The house was very comfortable and had many amenities. The owner was very communicative and a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend.
We had a great time. Just be prepared if a large group laundry will take way longer then expected for check out. We had a great time sitting outside with a fire and talking! Its a beautiful home and recommend it to others! Thank you so much!
The house was great! It was beautiful and relaxing. Scott checked in with me multiple times to see if we needed anything. Would definitely stay at this house again.
This house was a nice place for us to stay while visiting the area for a baseball tournament in Cortland. The boys loved the pool table and ping pong in the basement and we had plenty of room to spread out.
The stay was great, just know that the bunks are doubles top and bottom not singles so count accordingly. Communication was fast and very to the point that worked well for us. I would definitely rent this home again in the future.
We had a family reunion here and several of us travelled from out of state. We all slept comfortably and it was great to have different areas of the house to hang out such as ping pong and pool downstairs. We enjoyed the hot tub and grill and we had plenty of nice places to hang out with multiple ages! We also enjoyed nearby attractions. Scott was really helpful, responsive, and flexible and we would definitely stay here again!
Very nice rental with great views and everyondle had a good time. The kitchen needs a bit more over-head lighting, as the under-cabinet lights didn't quite get the job done in conjunction with the minimal over-head stained glass lights. Otherwise, top marks all around.
We had an amazing time at this property. From walking in, reading through the rules, the suggestions for places in town, and contacting the property manager was nothing but amazing. We had an issue with our stove and popping breakers, and the manger always responded quickly and replaced the stove that night. This house is beautiful, the decorations were great, the house was so clean, it was accommodating for everyone! The views were amazing, and the morning runs with those hills were hard! Cannot recommend this property enough!
We stayed at the property for a family summer vacation. We had 7 kids ages 2-14 and they had so much fun.
There was plenty of space for the kids and the adults. The property was clean and well maintained. Plenty of beds, kitchen equipment, cleaning supplies etc. Scott was available and in contact in case we needed anything. Overall we had a great experience.
We stayed during the summer so I’m sure it’s quite different than the winter-but I would imagine it would be a great place to stay if you wanted to ski.
Beautiful home in perfect spot with amazing views!
We stayed at Scott’s home over Christmas and it was just what we were looking for! Scott was so nice to work with and very flexible. Plenty of space for our family and we all loved the ping pong and pool tables. The view of the slopes was wonderful! The home is decorated so nicely for Christmas as well. Only cons were the lack of workspace lighting in the kitchen, and the cleaning/laundry process could be better. (I have never stayed in a VRBO where you had to do the laundry and vacuum/mop at the end of the stay). However, it would definitely not keep me from renting this lovely home again! Scott is a wonderful host!
This house was great. We have people from ages 5 to 40's and everyone was comfortable and were able to have space for dofferent things. The views are amazing, the deck is wonferful for hanging put, the kitchen has the things you didnt bring.
There is Christmas decor everywhere, probably because of the ski slope across the street and lots of winter renters. The rooms are comfortable and the loft was great soace for many of the kids, all different ages to sleep.
This was one of the best places we've rented over the last ten years with this group of families. Thanks!
We used Scott’s house for 8 adults to attend my son’s graduation. Scott was awesome with communication from the time I booked the property. All the Xmas decorations gave it a homey feeling. The house is beautifully located right across Greek Peak Resort and through the majestic windows the view of the mountains are beautiful. We even had the opportunity to witness a thunder storm and some white clouds hanging out on the mountain. The gardens are well maintained.
We hosted a graduation party with three other families and the plan had been to sit outdoors in the spacious spaces outdoors with the firepit. And we were able to quickly change plans with the rains to hosting indoors in their bar and hangout space. The graduates enjoyed being together.
We all cherished the time together in the home. Thank you to the Johnsons.
This home allowed the 9 of us to spread out, and the layout is great. Early risers in the kitchen could not be heard from the bedrooms so others slept in which is especially nice when you have teens! The view from the patio, the deck, the living room, and one of the bedrooms was great. The hot tub was very clean and situated perfectly, undercover, but on the patio so you could enjoy the bonfire and views at the same time. The cleaning crew hasn't done a thorough job in a while. Some of the appliances need a good scrub down. The level of crud on the toaster oven, and other appliances was pretty thick, so we needed to clean before cooking (we cooked every day). The dishes and utensils were all clean though. One of the bathrooms had been cleaned, but the other two obviously weren't cleaned. Overall, the pros outweighed the cleanliness issue. Being walking distance from Hope Lake Lodge is great! I would definitely want to know that it had been cleaned by a better cleaning service before arrival.
We had a great time at Scott's house! Our teenagers loved the game room and hot tub, we had plenty of space to relax with family, the fireplace was cozy and the mountain was a quick walk which made ski logistics easy. We would definitely visit again!
Great place to hang for Thanksgiving with our family. Comfort, place to hang, and less stress. It has Pool table, Ping pong table, fireplace, TVs, Bar, Hot Tub, huge kitchen with lots of appliances to use, and great beds and baths to use. No complaints and really enjoyed our stay. Thank you !
