Adorable cottage literally a two minute walk from the lake. Great hiking paths within the Lake Makoma community. The house is comfortable and cozy. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Cozy Spot

The spot is very accessible and absolutely perfect for us on our trip to the local state parks. We had weather one night and spending the evening by the fire was a delight! A couple or a family would easily enjoy this location for a great getaway.

This spot really does work well for both couples and families, and I’d love to host you again anytime you’re back in the area! 🌲✨🔥

This is our second time staying at Tara's place. It is 5stars. Everything you would need in the kitchen is there. The place is warm and cozy and the area is quiet and beautiful. Sitting in the rocking chairs on the front porch was so relaxing. We visited High Knob, Canyon Vista, Dushore and Eagles Mere. It was our second time and it won't be the last. Great place!

Thank you so much for returning — it truly means a lot to host you again! I’m thrilled to hear your second stay was just as wonderful, and that the house felt warm, cozy, and fully stocked for your trip. The front porch rocking chairs are such a peaceful spot, and I love knowing you enjoyed them. It sounds like you had an amazing time exploring High Knob, Canyon Vista, Dushore, and Eagles Mere — such beautiful places. You’re always welcome here, and I’d be delighted to host you for visit number three and beyond. Thank you again for the 5-star love! 🌿✨🏡

Tara was great. Top notch with communication. The house was comfy and had all supplies that I needed. We enjoyed the lake, kayaks and fire pit. I only needed a place for an extended weekend, so I very much appreciated finding a home that did not require a 7 day booking and pet friendly. It's a rare find. I would certainly stay again! Thanks for sharing your lake house.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I’m so glad the house felt comfortable and well-stocked for your long weekend, and it makes me happy to hear you enjoyed the lake, kayaks, and fire pit. I also know how hard it can be to find a pet-friendly place without a 7-day minimum, so I’m really glad this worked perfectly for your trip. You were a wonderful guest, and I’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime. Thank you for choosing my lake house! 🌿🛶✨

Wonderful house/host

Tara is a wonderful host. Very communicative, polite, and honest. The house was great. Very well stocked. Couldn’t ask for a better set up. Our family really enjoyed the fire pit. We had some cool nights and that fire came in handy. But yes, most definitely would recommend this place to anyone looking to visit the area.

Great location in Lake Mokoma. I’ve stayed at 3 different properties over the past 3 yrs at LM & this is by far my favorite. Beach within walking distance and property accessible to running/walking trails throughout Lake Mokoma. Quiet in the evenings and all of the necessities were provided- towels/linens and coffee pods! Would definitely visit Katonah House again! Super enjoyed time spent reading in the evenings in the enclosed porch and happy hour on the front porch. Kayaks were available too. Highly recommend. If you’re into hiking World’s End, Loyalsock, Old Logger’s, and Ricketts are super close (loyalsock haystacks is about 7 minutes.) Hidden Gem day spa in Laporte is great for beauty treatments. Book ahead. Shout out to World’s End coffee in Eagles Mere. And if you’re willing to drive for dinner Basil (reservation) in Muncy has the best pizza ever. The fresh dough is insane.

Thank you so much for this incredible review! It means the world to hear that Katonah House has been your favorite Lake Mokoma stay — especially after visiting multiple properties over the years. I’m thrilled you enjoyed the easy access to the beach, the peaceful evenings, the trails, and all the little comforts like towels, linens, and coffee pods. It makes me especially happy that you spent your evenings reading on the enclosed porch and enjoying happy hour on the front porch — those are some of my favorite spots, too. I’m glad the kayaks came in handy as well! Thank you for sharing all your fantastic recommendations for hiking, dining, and pampering in the area — guests love hearing about local gems, and you highlighted some of the very best. You’re always welcome back at Katonah House, and I’d be delighted to host you again anytime. 💛🌿🛶
