Summary: This was our second year at this beautiful cottage on the lake. We had an awesome time again! We love relaxing by the lake and hopefully can do it again next year.
Kristina F. Jun 30, 2024 05:07:52 AM
Summary: We had a great stay for a second time. The host was very responsive and checked on us. The cottage is small but well appointed for our stay with two small kiddos. We enjoyed coffee/hot tea on the decks, cooking breakfast on the Blackstone grill and taking the pedal boat to the nearby park and playground.

Summary: We enjoyed getting away from the noise and bustle of city life to a peaceful, quiet area along Lake Oneida. What we loved about the place: 1) Cleaned immaculately. 2) stable wi-fi. 3) fully stocked kitchen. 4) wonderful deck to hang out on and eat. 5) quiet outside surroundings filled with rabbits, geese, chipmunks, and ducks. 6) very attentive owner who made communicated clearly and quickly. 7) Lots of things to do relatively close by and pretty good restaurant. A few things we found no so great: 1) There is no dining room table but only a table on the deck outside. When it was hot or raining, we had to make do eating on TV trays. 2) The doors to the bedrooms do not fully close which might be a privacy issue for those with kids or another couple staying there. 3) The gas grill was inoperable due to a leaky hose. We had to cook our steaks in a pan in the kitchen (which set off the fire alarms). 4) I know it cannot be helped by there are insects everywhere outside and sometimes in the cabin: spiders, gnats, and mosquitos. This is part of lake life, but it was extreme on days after it rained. Overall, we were very glad we came here. It was just what we needed to unwind and spend time together without a lot of people or commotion. Thank you, Traci!

allyson s. Oct 25, 2023 11:01:12 AM
Summary: stay was very enjoyable. Rainy and windy most of the time, so we were inside mostly, We still enjoyed our stay as cottage was so pleasant. My husband enjoyed so much he said he could live there year round.
Cody M. Sep 30, 2023 11:01:02 PM
Summary: Picturesque little cottage located with a water front view. Much need break from work spent every morning enjoying a coffee while looking out at the water. It is off the beaten path but still close enough to explore all the sides of the lake. Loved our stay and the host always responded quickly to any questions we had. 10/10 would recommend.
Joanna M. Sep 14, 2023 11:52:58 PM
Summary: Awesome updated cottage! I am a clean freak and this place was spotless. Everything was intentionally placed… from a wardrobe closet in the master to a hook to put your towel outside the shower. Basket of snacks, soap, little makeup removal wipes, k-cups for the Keriug etc. The lake view was gorgeous. There is plenty of space on the deck, by the fire pit, right on the edge of the lake the other little dwelling with mini deck. The inside of the cottage itself is small, but perfect for our family of 3. Shower and bathroom are a bit of a tight squeeze but manageable….that’s the only thing that I can even critique. We loved it and highly recommend.
