Absolutely beautiful location and beautiful property. The hot tub at sunset was the best hot tub experience ever. It couldn’t have been placed in a better location to view!
I stayed here with a large group, and the experience exceeded every expectation. The house was spacious, comfortable, and surprisingly well‑equipped for a group our size. The host was incredibly responsive and went out of their way to address every question and concern, which made the entire stay feel effortless. And the lakefront — absolutely magical. From sunrise reflections on the water to quiet evenings by the shore, it truly made the trip unforgettable.

Beautiful location, comfortable cozy home
We had a wonderful time at this house on the lake. Location is gorgeous, with both stairs and tram down to beach & dock with kayaks. Home is cozy with great deck and firepit. Very much enjoyed our return stay!
6 adults 9 kids. It was a siblings and cousins weekend! The house was a great size with all adult rooms on the main floor and kids up on the 2nd. Everything was clean and maintained. We loved it!

So glad to hear that you loved our home!! We love to spend time with our family and friends there :)
Great property although spiral stairs were a challenge for our over age 50 group of women utilizing the kid room upstairs for extra sleeping space. The views were amazing and the tram so convenient to catch a sunset!!

What a gem!
This place was fantastic! From the private location, to the giant deck, the beautiful view, a tram and huge flat lakefront…it’s a special place. The deck is great for dogs. We stayed in the fall but would love to come back in the summer and take even more advantage of the amenities. The hosts were super responsive and so nice throughout the whole process!
Such a beautiful property and perfect for our family with friends stopping by. The cottage itself is nice and filled with anything you could need in kitchen , etc and the outdoor space is spectacular. Host very responsive when we had question about tram and no issues with checkin. Tram was helpful though stairs not too bad…..hope to stay again!

Hi Julie,

We loved our stay the Treehouse. The private beach is great and the tram was very helpful for the young children and seniors in our group. The outdoor area is so nice for big family dinners and just hanging out enjoying the view. Christine was very quick to respond to any questions and always helpful. We’d love to do it again.

So glad you ladies had a nice time! Our new Tram takes guests right down to the beach! It’s so much nicer than all the steps :)
We were 11, for a family reunion. It was close quarters, but we fit! The greatest feature of the house is the amazing deck. Well shaded but not dank. Everyone enjoyed taking the tram up from the lake, too? Well-equipped house — everything you could need. And great communication with hosts.

Thanks so much for choosing to stay with us.
We love being outdoors so the deck has to be super comfy!!! We have 5 daughters so when we all come down with husbands and kids, we sleep a bunch. The Tram has been a wonderful addition- super easy to get up and down to the lake yet keeps the woodsey feel and quiet that we cherish.
Our golf ladies go on an annual golf trip, and this year we chose to stay at the Treehouse on Canandaigua Lake. The view from the outside deck is spectacular and the kitchen table gave us space enough for us to enjoy a wonderful dinner together. We enjoyed our stay! We would recommend it to others as well.

We very much enjoyed our stay. Christine responded to all our questions right away. The outdoor space is phenomenal. Inside is cozy and quaint. All amenities were accurate. The 3 private bedrooms were comfortable. The “cousins heaven” fits many kids who are happy to bunk together.
Christine welcomed us and made our stay possible. Her home is delightful and we enjoyed our weekend very much. Beautiful property. We hope to return again next year. Thank you, Christine

Got great views of bald eagles over the lake on several days of our stay. House has been updated with new appliances, hot tub, and tram to/from the lake. There are plenty of beds for kids, but would recco no more than 6 adults+older teens as you’ll run out of space. Responsive owner.

So glad to hear that you saw the American Eagles. The tend to fly right in front of the picture window between the home and the Lake. Love to see them. Yes, we planned out the cottage for 3 families to gather. Each couple has a queen bed and then the kids have the entire upstairs. That’s how we use the space too.
It does fit a gaggle :)
We had a wonderful time at the treehouse. They have an amazing tram that takes you down to the lake. The huge deck is a plus for gathering and offered our pets a place to roam freely outside because it was nicely fenced and gated. Its a very private getaway nestled in the trees. We did have an issue with the hot tub upon arrival. We contacted the host and they worked hard to rectify the situation ASAP. But because it took till midweek, they offered a credit. They were very nice to work with.

So glad to hear that you had a wonderful time! We love our deck too- it's where we spend most of our time when we are there. Our NEW hot tub takes a bit longer to get up to temperature after changing the water but I think we are getting the hang of it :)
I booked this venue for a get together with my family and some family friends totaling about 12 people.
We had a wonderful time. The view from the deck is wonderful and the outdoor space really allowed us to enjoy the summer weather. The beach was wonderful, though if you choose to take the stair be prepared there are a lot of them. We enjoyed swimming in the lake and using the kayaks that were provided (there were 7) we had 4 of them in the water at one point.
We really enjoyed our stay. It really facilitated out annual get together.

Wonderful Home!
The deck is the highlight of this home. It was large enough for our whole group of 17 to hang out. The lake area is also a wonderful spot to dock a boat, swim, and skip rocks. It was nice to have some kayaks and life jackets available for use. The walk back up to the house is a little tough, but worth it! Our teenagers enjoyed having their own space upstairs in the house too! We had a great time and would definitely recommend the treehouse!
The Tree House was cozy, comfortable and clean. We enjoyed conversations and relaxation on the deck among the trees, all while cozy on the comfortable patio chairs. The tram to the lake front was awesome. We needed a place on Canandaigua Lake that allowed us to have an event. The tree house was perfect! Our family gathered there, along with our daughter’s bridesmaids, to enjoy the beautiful view of Canandaigua Lake while soaking in the sounds and sights of the forest. Thank you for sharing your tree house with us.
It helped make dreams come true.

Thanks so much for choosing our home for your special special day!!
The house was not clean, the house claims to have 6 bedrooms and there were 3 on the main floor and a loft and so I feel that is inaccurate description of what to expect. Also the host accused of of damaging property which we didn’t do. Also they didn’t provide any garbage cans for the trash and they wanted to charge us a fee for not hauling out the garbage. It was an absolutely beautiful location and could have been a wonderful place to stay if it was managed better.

Hi Miriam,
I am sorry that you felt you had to retaliate against us because you caused damage to our home, broke into our lock closet and did not take care of the piles of garbage you left. We also didn’t know you had questions because you didn’t communicate. There are three garbage bins and 2 recycling bins by the road that are serviced by Casella Waste weekly. The info is in the binder and on the diagram by the door.
We do our best to make sure all of our guests are well taken care of and comfortable. We are always here for you.
We are disappointed that you are choosing a retaliatory review that is false.
The Treehouse was built by my father and grandfather. It is clean, beautiful and unique. We manage and maintain it well and live 20 minutes away.
About the host
Hosted by Christine Cole
My husband and I have been married for over 30 years and love gathering with our 5 daughters and the grand kids! We love to share our home with others who are looking to enjoy each others company and connect with each other in a special place.
Why they chose this property
The Treehouse was built by my father and grandfather. I spent the summers, as a child, running through the woods, catching salamanders in the ravines, fishing off the dock and swimming in the Lake. My husband and I recently bought it back into the family. Thank you for helping our dreams come true by renting from us so we can continue to own and improve our special place.
