The cottage was perfect for our getaway with friends. There was enough room for the 6 of us where we could all hang out together. The kids had their own space and we really enjoyed sitting on the deck by the water. The cottage was stocked with everything we needed.and more. Communication with the owner was great. Would definitely recommend staying here.
We had a great time at this place. Very clean and well maintained. The place was fully stocked with items you may need if you forgot something. The shower is a little tight for taller people and has limited parking, but with two couples and two vehicles it was not a problem. Very quiet and relaxing area of the lake. Would definitely go back.
This rental exceeded our expectations. The location was great, close enough to canoe to the lake. The host goes out of their way for renters to have a great experience providing basic needs that others almost never provide. The communication with the host was great as they responded to every message in a timely manner. We hope to rent again in the future.
Cottage was nice, clean, some cottage/lake decorations. Nice flooring but being a 1940s place, floors are a little slanted but we got used to them. Beds were comfortable except one that felt too tilted to make comfortable with my back issues. But that’s just me. Enjoyed our stay relaxing on the deck, had family stop over and living room/kitchen area is plenty large for company. Loved the sun porch but was too warm when we were there. Don’t think there were any screens. Right on the canal and we saw several boats with friendly neighbors wave as they passed.
Our family of 3 stayed for a long weekend and the checkin and checkout communications were very helpful. The property location is convenient for exploring multiple fun areas and activities in North western PA and South western NY balanced with the house providing an accomodating experience. It's difficult to find a vacation rental that offers it all, so having waterfront access with kayaks, a firepit, and a hot tub helped make for a wonderful vacation
The cottage was great . . . it was in a superb location allowing us to fish right from the bank of the creek outside our back door to allowing us to canoe/kayak to the mail Lake of Chataqua! We also watched other boaters float by as they headed to the Lake. We had clean accommodations, excellent communication with the property manager and everything we could ever imagine we might need . . . . from games, to water equipment, to condiments, to personal care items, etc., etc. . . . . the cottage even had beach towels waiting for us for use after dipping in the hot tub and had the most comfortable beds! We definitely plan to head back in the future to this relaxing respite!
