The house is beautiful, clean and cozy. Our boys (3 and 6) were in absolute heaven with the bunk beds, board games and toys. Daily canoe rides on the lake to look at fall foliage and then evenings by the cozy fire. Beds and linens were very comfortable!
Perfect setting and location. Rustic in the most stylish way and equipped with everything you need. Owners are incredibly responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay again.
This house is perfection. The hosts were amazing with communication. Always answered our question in a timely manner. The house is beautiful and right on the lake. The house is on the clear side of the lake, meaning no seaweed. You can see straight to the bottom and perfect for swimming. We LOVED out stay and would love to come back.
Couldn't have had a better experience. Beautiful lakefront location. Great communication with the hosts! All around great visit and would definitely stay there again!
This was our second time at Vincent & Natasha's beautiful cabin perched right on the lake. The house is well stocked (and well organized!) with everything you need, and the setting is just magical. Hope to return next summer!
We had the most amazing stay. The house is well equipped for young children and really felt like we were in a friends home not a rental. How communication was A+, thank you!
Another lovely stay in this cozy cabin - perfect place for our group to wind down and recharge, with long winter walks, making meals together, reading books, playing games and exploring this scenic area. We’ll be back for sure!
Excellent location with everything you need. Beautiful views of the lake. Amazing sunsets and serene sunrises. Vince & Natasha are great communicators and make the renting process seamless. Would highly recommend.
This house is absolutely perfect- well designed well appointed- every kitchen utensil you could ever need- highest quality appliances We never ran out of towels or linens
And most importantly its air conditioned!!

Ariana,
Thank you for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at Copake Lakehouse and look forward to hosting you and your family again next year.
Best,
Vince & Natasha
Great stay in such a gorgeous house on the lake! The area is beautiful and the house itself had EVERYTHING we needed to cook meals and make drinks. I highly recommend staying here! House also has AC which owners were very helpful with (it took us a moment to realize the remote slides open but that’s on us). We went to copake winery and feast and floret for dinner- both of which were fantastic. Would come again!
Thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful home. Perfect place for our family of five. House is right on the water, enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards and swim dock. Plenty of hang out space for the whole family. The house is beautifully decorated with plenty of sleeping space. Relaxing and peaceful.

Thanks, Elaine! We appreciate your positive feedback and are glad to hear you enjoyed yourselves during your stay this summer. We hope to have you back at Copake Lakehouse again soon!
We stayed at the Copake Lake house for a weekend with a group of girlfriends and had the best time. The kitchen was well-stocked, beds are very comfortable, and everyone was really happy with our stay at this property. Vincent was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay at the lake house including canoeing, drinks by the fire, and plenty of darts and board games. The hosts specifically purchased a copy of the Splendor game for use during our stay which was greatly appreciated. Our son also loved the toys and the bunk beds were so cozy. Thank you so much!

Thanks, Jennifer! We are so happy you and your family enjoyed your time at our home on Copake Lake.
Everything was absolutely perfect. The communication with Vincent was easy, timely, informative, helpful!
The house is the perfect lake getaway. Every detail was thoughtfully curated- nothing was missed. From the decor to the design, and everything in between- brilliant. A specific shoutout to the bunk/kids room. My kids entertained themselves for hours (without screens- tablets or television). The book collection for the kids was especially impressive- positively perfect!
We will definitely return in the summer months to enjoy the lake!!

Beautiful, comfortable, happy
For an English family this was American heaven. The children ("kids") plunged into the lake on arrival and emerged only to eat, sleep or check their Instagram feeds to reassure themselves that no one was having a groovier time than they were. We explored (zip lining, white water tubing, Bash Bish falls) and cooked, played darts, lay in the hammock, kayaked. The cottage has everything - well, not a teapot, but everything else. Vince is courteous and thoughtful and clearly a Great Cook: an missing the larder stores already.

Thank you Susannah ... I've just ordered the tea pot!!!
As soon as we walked into this house, we felt like we were walking into a magazine spread. It doesn't surprise me that its sophisticated designs were featured in Country Living and The Wall Street Journal. But beyond the rustic chic decor, which will satisfy any art and style lover, there are incredible views of the lake out every single window. My husband and our two kids (10 and 5 years old) went on a chilly fall weekend, but there was still plenty to do: fire pits, reading by the French doors, pulling games from the owner's endless supply, cooking in their well-equipped kitchen, hiking in the hemlock forest, climbing a trail to a stunning waterfall. I couldn't recommend this house more!

Fall at Copake Lake is one of our favorite seasons! We are so glad you were able to enjoy a getaway with your family during this time and take in some hikes, board games and cozying up with a good book by the fire. Come back again soon!
