The house was very clean and well stocked with towels, blankets (it was very chilly when we were there), and kitchen utensils. Lots of room, and centrally located on the Seneca Wine Trail. We had a very fun few days there.
We greatly enjoyed our stay at this home. The location between Cayuga and Seneca was perfect to visit the many wineries in the area. We also loved the character of this house; while obviously built in a different era, the updates improved the home while retaining the charm. We will definitely check here for availability for future trips!
The house was great and we all really enjoyed the pool table. We travelled to Geneva, Watkins Glen and Ithaca during our stay and house was perfectly, centrally located.
Great location! Close to the main highway that most of the wineries are on, without being on the actual highway. Much lower volume of traffic. Besides, the closest wineries, Boundary Breaks, we probably my favorite of the weekend, and that is about three minutes away.

Weekend in Ovid area
The house is large and clean, and mostly well appointed. You can drive to some nice walks and parks for playgrounds.
This place had everything you need! It’s spacious and large and great for a big group of people. They had plenty of extra blankets for the really cold days. Everything was clean and organized when we got there!
Very convenient location and big house. Couple down sides were there are no TVs and you are not able to control the AC or heat. Other than that it was a good stay

Great place with it's own charm
Very spacious and welcoming space with several common areas. The house was clean and close to several attractions. There is a grocery store just 5 mins from the house so it was very convenient for times we decided to stay in and make our own meals. Would highly recommend!
We had a really good time. The house served us well, and we enjoyed the large mowed area which allowed the boys to run around without worrying about getting too close to the road.
Nice large yard. We could have used another bedroom but we made do. Perfect for what we needed....we did so much exploring so we didn't really spend much time at house.
Wonderful property for a small gathering. More than enough room with a perfect set up for gathering and meals. We didn’t miss having a television because we enjoyed having a piano and pool table !
The owner is very easy to communicate with. We will definitely recommend it to friends and family.
Very nice home to stay in , for a short trip to Seneca Lake. Very clean, has all the necesseties . Added bonus was pool table , deck and piano. Plenty of parking. My family enjoyed themselvea . The only downer was the upstairs steps are very steep and very slippery when wearing socks. Overall a great place.
Clean and comfortable home with plenty of beds and towels. Only two major requests from my mature parents and these were addressed quickly and with ease. I was thankful for the lovely home and care shown to me and my family.
The house is large with many comfortable rooms. Multiple floor heights so be sure to watch your step especially at night. House could have been a bit cleaner with cobwebs and dirty floors noted when we wiped water spill. Nice big porch and outside space. No TV. Host was very nice and easy to work with.
This property was spacious and we loved the location for access to hiking, biking and wineries. The layout of the house is quirky and the varying floor heights from one living space to another may be challenging for some. The first floor bathroom is on the opposite side of the house from the first floor bedroom and is accessed through the kitchen: not very private. Likewise, the upstairs bath is on the opposite side of the house from the third bedroom and is only accessible through the second bedroom.
This place is as listed and shown in pictures. It’s a great location when doing a wine tour. My friends and I had a weekend visit for a wine tour and found the location convenient. We were close to wineries and BBQ’s. Yum! I would just make a note that there is no tv (if you want to watch any). This is also an old farm house and you may have some unexpected guests There were tiny ants on the counter and sink (we cleaned them up with kitchen cleaner) and we suggest keeping food in the refrigerator or microwave. We had a visit from ratatouille. Woke up in the morning to him on the kitchen table. Maybe he was going to make us breakfast. We ended up throwing away our food for safety concerns. Luckily he scurried away and didn’t return for the rest of our stay.
We enjoyed our time with family and the nearby state parks. Communication with owner was excellent. We forgot an item and he promptly shipped it backed to me.
Only one thing to note: not all bedrooms are air conditioned. The central air didn’t seem to reach the second level. There was a room air conditioner in one bedroom that worked fine. But none for the second bedroom upstairs. We didn’t use that bedroom so it was fine for us. We were there during a hot week. So the air conditioning was important.
We had a great stay. And we had someone with us who plays the piano. It made the stay extra special. We would definitely come back again. Thanks for everything.
The check-in process was a little challenging because I had to contact Evolve to ask for the instructions as we were pulling up but I received them right away when I asked.The kitchen was great and had everything we needed.
