Grandparents trip

This property was perfect for our group. We took our 4 grandchildren ages 13, 10, 7 and 7. The beach with boats, kayaks, swimming and fishing was a big hit. We also enjoyed the fire pit. There was plenty of room for all 6 of us and the staff was very accommodating.

This is our 4th stay at Autumn Lake and we’ll absolutely be back again next summer! The cottages are clean and beautiful. The beach has so many options for kayaking and our kids love jumping off the dock and fishing. Being pet friendly is a huge plus; our lab loves it there as much as we do! Salmon River Falls is a must see just a short drive away; my husband and I got engaged there in 2020 and this year we brought our two kids to see it so it’s a really special place for us!

The house was lovely with the calm lake in front. The easy use of the various boats/kayaks/canoe was a great feature for our entire family. The reason why I gave it 4 stars was due to the very uncomfortably soft mattress in the single bedroom. Made the relax and refresh, not so because we had restless sleep. I understand that not all people like firm mattresses, however this was soft to the point of mushy. All in all, we had a good time visiting up-state NY.

We enjoyed a long weekend of snowmobiling and sledding. Snowmobile trail is at the driveway; Very convenient. Cozy, clean, warm and comfortable. Brian was very responsive. We had lots of snow, the driveway and walkway was nicely cleared.

We had such a great time during our stay. We were at La bella Vista several years ago. You guys have done an amazing job with the property and cottages. The only thing I could say to improve is to tighten the adirondack chairs, Many were loose. Hope to see you again.

Great family vacation

Despite less than ideal weather, my family’s cottages were cozy, clean,and comfortable. The owner, Brian, has done everything to ensure his guests’ enjoyment. You can easily see that great care went into his planning and aesthetic design of the cottages. My family had a wonderful time kayaking, hiking, playing family games and cooking together. Thank you Brian!

Wonderful Winter Getaway

We rented this cottage last minute for a quick getaway with our family and it was perfect. The fireplace kept the whole cottage cozy and accommodations were exactly what we needed. We stayed for 2 nights. The kitchenette had plenty of kitchen tools to use. Being on Autumn Lake gave a picturesque view to wake up to. Check in and check out was easy to follow. I would suggest bringing your own pillows & stopping at the Walmart on the way in Center Square for essentials as there are not too many close markets. It was quiet, lovely and would love to return for a summer stay. Thanks so much for the great accomodations!

Cozy, well-kept house on Autumn Lake with great views, easy lake access, kayaks and canoes free and easily usable for guests, and warm ambience. Perfect size for 4 adults and 1 child, with everyone able to have some quiet privacy within the house when needed. Thank you for a wonderful new family memory.

Enjoyed a relaxing long fall season weekend. Cozy, very clean cabin with everything we needed. Comfortable beds. Nice bathrooms. Wifi and cell service worked great, even through some passing weather. Enough room for the whole family to enjoy themselves. Nice outdoor setting with great views and outdoor space for any need. The grill and deck was a nice touch. Fireplace was a very nice added touch. Would like to enjoy in the warmer months to take advantage of the beach and kayaks provided. Close to fishing and beaches. Will be staying again and recommend to friends/family!

This place was amazing, truly a hidden gem. The owners have obviously put a lot of love into the property and the charm and design is absolutely adorable. We loved the patios and giant bathtub. The lake was clean and a really nice area and we loved taking the boats out. The cabin had everything we needed, and the Roku tv was a nice touch for rainy days. We went to nearby Salmon river falls, the beach, and to Destiny USA during our stay - all great family activities. We will definitely be back!

Family Gathering

We visited at Christmas and were able to host some gatherings of our local family members ( about 10 people at once). There was lots of space. It's nice to have a place where we can get together with family without burdening them. Our dog also was very comfortable sitting in front of the fire.
