2024 Fam Reunion

Pros: Great location. Very kind host who met me at the property to show me around. Very clean, and furnished with everything needed to cook your own meals and enjoy family meals together. Well located for a short walk down the road to one of the establishments for a drink or meal. The park with beach access is a 15 minute drive. Very nice park with tables, grills and clean bathroom. Cons: there is an attached apartment with separate entrance and if someone is staying there, they own the outside patio area with the umbrellas and table. Although the apartment is noted in the posting, I overlooked that and was unaware the patio area belonged to that apartment. If a group were staying in the apartment and laid claim to that patio area, it would’ve been uncomfortable to share a very small space with another group. Although a friend of the host was staying there, we did not have to share the space, but it’s something to ask about when booking the property.

Perfect for our wedding weekend

We rented 3 of Jacci’s properties for our wedding weekend. We were able to fit our whole wedding party in the houses. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the town. The houses were clean and beautiful and Jacci was super helpful and accommodating. I would definitely recommend to anyone!

Highly recommend!

10 family and friends stayed at this beautifully decorated home for two nights. We had plenty of sleep options, sat out on the front porch often, visited local wineries and ice cream shops and a cute farmers market, easy walks to check out the lake (or just peek across the street!). The house itself is super cozy and welcoming. And Jacci went above and beyond to make sure we were all set. She knows everything about that area, so we inquired for her advice about restaurants and wineries and shopping more than once :-) Highly recommend

Perfect location for a Girl's Weekend

This home is perfect in every way, from it's location to it's decor and beyond. Jacci was such an amazing host, full of joy and so willing to share ideas on how to make the most of our stay. The home is withing walking distance of many great things! Don't miss out on Ward's sausage breakfast sandwich at the Farmer's Market on Saturday morning. It will ruin you for all other sausage. I also highly recommend the wine tour on the lake with Bianconi Tours. It was an amazing weekend and we can't wait to return.

Wonderful stay!

We had a lovely time staying here! The house was a great size for my family (there were 5 adults and a baby). It was so close to the state park, different wineries/breweries, blueberry picking, and the playground in the back was lovely to have so close for our little one. Jacci was super communicative and made us feel at home. Would love to come back!

Delightful Lakeside Getaway

I’m not sure whether it was the beauty of the season in upstate NY, or the artsy home with a history, or the kind welcoming hostess, but if you want a perfect lakeside getaway, this is your spot. I highly recommend. Thank you to Jacci for your graciousness.

Wonderful getaway

My family and I were looking for a relaxing retreat and this place was a real gem. It is a comfortably furnished Victorian beauty with lots of room and space to be together or to retreat for some down time. We especially loved the front porch and its view of the lake. Jacci was a super friendly and helpful host who made sure all of our needs were met and gave us lots of useful information about places to go around the village of Aurora and Ithaca. We highly recommend this place for a family vacation.

Great weekend getaway with a beautiful house and view of the lake !

I rented out the house with a group of friends for a bachelorette weekend. The owner was very friendly and accommodating. She gave us a tour of the house and also went above and beyond providing us with breakfast items. She stopped by frequently to make sure we were doing okay and had everything we needed. The house itself was stunning and had a beautiful front porch looking across the street to the lake. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a nice getaway!

Great Location - Thoughtful Owner - Accommodations Galore!

Jacci was very attentive to our needs. She gave us a wonderful tour of the home and provided us all that we needed to navigate the area. The house was quaint, perfect location, and accommodations were as advertised. It sleeps 11 very comfortably. Jacci was so friendly and communicative, parking was adequate, and we felt right at home in a matter of minutes. Thank you!
