Summary: Our stay at this cottage was overall excellent! The property was exactly as describedβ€”clean, beautifully decorated, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts were very kind and responsive and provided detailed instructions, which made check-in and check-out a breeze.The location offered a peaceful escape, surrounded by nature, which was just what we were looking for. However, it’s worth noting that the cottage is down a long, one-way gravel road with a 10 mph speed limit. While this adds to the sense of seclusion, it did make coming and going a bit tedious, especially for those unfamiliar with the area. One morning, we were stuck behind a massive parked truck and couldn't go around on either side. I guess the owners of the truck thought it would be ok to park it right in the middle of a narrow 1-way gravel road... One thing to consider is the cleaning fee, which was a notable portion of the overall cost of the stay. While we understand the importance of maintaining a clean and welcoming property, the instructions stated to complete several light cleaning tasks before departure, such as tidying up, handling some basic housekeeping and vacuuming as a recommendation. These requirements made the additional fee feel a bit disproportionate, as it seemed we were already contributing to the upkeep of the cottage.That said, if you’re looking for a serene getaway and don’t mind the road or the fee, this cottage is a wonderful choice!

Robert S. Dec 31, 2024 03:49:36 AM
Summary: We loved our stay at Sunset Cottage. Beautiful views of the lake. The house was well stocked and clean. We enjoyed the hot tub looking out at the lake. Great location for wine tastings if you don't mind a bit of a drive other than the 3 fairly close by. We would definitely book again.

Summary: Stayed over Christmas with our dogs and my MiL. Was a perfect holiday. Very quiet and scenic. The house and bunk house were clean and the perfect size for us.

Summary: This beautiful cottage, on Cayuga Lake, was the perfect relaxing getaway we had hoped for. All the comforts of home were provided. The scenery is beautiful. We enjoyed sitting lakeside, either on the deck or by the fire pit. The well provisioned firewood stack was much appreciated! Sunset Retreat is in our plans for a turn visit.
