This was our second stay at the property and we would come back again. Easy check-in, plenty of room for our family inside and out, well-equipped kitchen, super charming and clean interior, and a perfect location on Cuba Lake. We enjoyed swimming, kayaking, sitting by the fire, and playing games. A very quick drive to Cuba made shopping and dining easy. A great place to make family memories!
A wonderful lake house. Very clean and well stocked. Love the kitchen with all that is required to cook plus a comfortable seating area wrapped in windows for lovely lake views.The neighbors were great, two young men helped me unpack my car.We have stayed in this cottage several times, and we love it.
Great little cottage with lots of amenities and wonderful scenery. Close to town and activities. Host was great to work with and communication was quick and helpful.
This was a Great Lake house and a great location right on the water! Perfect getaway after my daughter’s high school graduation! Would definitely rent again!
Well decorated/cozy! Very well thought out and organized! Great views from every room, both upstairs and downstairs! The nicest VRBO that We have ever rented!
We stayed here for family weekend at St. Bonaventure. It was about a 20 minute drive. Such a great view from the living room. It felt like you were on a cruise ship, as the lake is steps away.
Very cute lake house, clean and well supplied. The views looking out over the lake from the dock and picture windows were fantastic! Only downside was the dock is a little older and uneven. Be careful with small kids or older adults. Overall our family had a great stay!
Nice property with lots of conveniences. We appreciated how well-stocked the kitchen was, and the intuitive nature of where items were stored made things easy! Only issues were that the dishwasher didn’t run properly sometimes, and the heat to the upstairs bedroom was lacking.
We had a great week at the lake house! We loved the carefully decorated and updated interior and appreciated how well-stocked and comfortable it was. The views are beautiful, and the lake was wonderful for swimming, canoeing and fishing. The amount of lakefront is lovely, we could really spread out on the deck. We soaked up the sun and enjoyed fires and star gazing at night. Kids were so happy with the bunkhouse. The town had plenty of shopping and dining, everything just minutes from the property. The host was attentive throughout and communication was prompt and friendly. We had a week filled with family fun and made amazing memories. We hope to come back!
The inside of the house was comfortable, but there were some issues. The cleaning crew left many items from the last guests — the fridge (including the entire side door) and all the cabinets were full. I contacted the host and was told the cleaners should have taken care of it. The upstairs bathroom also leaked through the ceiling, which I reported as well.The bigger concern was outside. The decking and stairs are in poor condition, with nails sticking up and rotting wood that made them feel unsafe. This really needs attention before future guests use the property.

Thank you for your feedback. My family is spending this week at the house so we immediately reviewed your points upon arrival. We ran the shower for 2 hours and found no evidence of leaking. This was likely a fluke instance. Regarding food in the refrigerator and cabinets, we have historically left non-perishable items such as condiments and pasta in storage so that guests can use them if they choose. Of course, guests may also dispose of them if it is an inconvenience. Regarding the dock space, last year we remedied all potential safety issues as we recognize the dock area is aging. As a result we have a major upgrade project planned in the coming year. Thank you again for your feedback.
