Lovely Family Reunion

We enjoyed a lovely family reunion. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. The indoor and outdoor seating is very comfortable. The grill and campfire was great to have, and there are several kayaks, boards and tubes to enjoy during the day. Thank you for a memorable time!

Family Vacation

Property was clean and had everything we needed. Craig, the property manager, was very friendly and very responsive to our questions. Path to the house is very steep, so maybe challenging for older people. Cars can drive down the path, so that was great for unloading. One area of the dock may be challenging too, but with help, is fine. Water had some algae in it. We had a very enjoyable and comfortable week.

Wonderful vacation house!

This is a beautiful home, perfect for a large family group. Plenty of room and set up well. The games room, kayaks, and hot tub were in great shape. Fire pit and firewood for s'mores. Tons of outdoor seating. We had a great time. The downsides are that the lower floor bedrooms have a musty smell, and the lake is not good for swimming due to frequent boat traffic on the narrow lake and questionable water quality (heavy algae blooms). If a group had small children, they might want to know that this property does not have a sandy or protected wading/beach area and is not the best for little kids.

Family house in Mongaup Valley

The large house is exactly as decribed. Spacious and very well equipped kitchen allows many.people to work in it at once. Most of thr bathrooms have been remodeled and most of the beds very were comfortable. Sadly, the weather was terrible, with rain most of the time we were there. So the beckonimg lake wasnt used which was disappointing. We were thrre with adults and 2 young chidren ages 7 and 10. Due to the fact there were great arcade games they and the adults were kept occupied. House us perfect for 10 -12 people. We came with a lot of food which was useful as there arent too many restaurants in the area. The host was very responsive to all our needs.

Nice week in NY for all ages

Went to this home for a week in August on a family vacation (ages 10-82.) Everyone enjoyed the hot tub, air conditioning, game room, and proximity to some lakeside lounging. Bedrooms were comfortable and we loved having personal bathrooms. The walk to the water is quite steep which was a little bit of a struggle for the grandparents in the group. The pictures do show an accurate trip down to the water. Not knowing the area, I underestimated the pitch from the water to the house and up to the street. The indoor stairs, and the stairs and ramp to the dock were also steep - fine for our younger guests, but be mindful for folks with mobility or balance limitations. We were a little bummed that the reservoir was pollen-covered and murky. We had been looking forward to swimming. However- we enjoyed using a paddle board and kayak. Great house and lake to bring a boat! Neighbors were enjoying pontoon boats and water skiing/wake boarding all week. (The hot tub was a fun swimming substitute!) Kitchen is well stocked with tools for basic cooking. Super convenient location to groceries, farm stands, a farmers market on Thursdays, and really great BBQ. We grilled and ate on the deck overlooking the lake. The large living room was perfect to pile onto the comfy couch to watch the Olympics and movies on rainy nights. Good communication up to and during our stay. Thanks!

Wonderful time!

We had a wonderful family vacation at the lake house! The home offered plenty of room for our family of 7. My kids loved the bunk beds and game room. We spent all day out on the lake. Having private dock access was great. We enjoyed swimming and using the kayaks and paddle board. We definitely would love to book again!
