Tucked away on a private road the property offered everything listed and more. Clean and comfortable for our family of ten over the stay. The weather was unfortunately awful which prevented much use of the outdoor deck and fishing but we were able to cook out and enjoy the ample space inside as well as make quick trips for dinner and breakfast in Clayton and Alex Bay given their close proximity to the house.
Only 1 issue was experienced during the stay which was the a/c unit not working in the master bedroom which I reached out to the property manager and they said they would have it looked at. Besides that we can’t wait to return to enjoy this property next year when hopefully Mother Nature cooperates better.
Thanks from our entire family for a wonderful week together!

My friends and I had a great time visiting the cottage. The house has beautiful views and is only a few steps away from a dock that is perfect for lounging and enjoying the sunshine. We experienced two minor issues: both showers filled up with pools of water when in use and we did not realize that only 2/5 bedrooms were air conditioned, leaving many of us quite warm at night.

Beautiful property with great views and sunsets. Near by state park had sandy beach and boat rentals. We rented a 20 HP small boat and drove by the property. Did not try to pull up to the dock as there were rocks in the area. We did swim from the lower deck and did sunsets from the upper deck every evening.
The temperature was in the 90’s with high, unhealthy humidity. Only one working portable Air conditioner leaving us sweltering and difficult to sleep. One towel per person with no dish towels or bathroom hand towels and no washer/dryer was highly inconvenient. NO shades on windows was hard to sleep past day break. Would have been a nice view but too many trees blocked. Open staircase was scary and I find it hard to believe it is up to code. No wifi topped off the inconveniences.

Hi Deirdre, we always appreciate hearing from our guests, but the homeowner would like to take a moment to clarify a few things raised in your review:
- We wish you had reached out to the Guest Contact during your stay if there were any issues you needed to be addressed. We would have done everything we could to resolve them immediately so that you could enjoy the home.
- The air conditioner couldn't work effectively because the windows were open during your stay.
- Additional towels are provided in the upstairs cupboard for guests' convenience.
- The stairs, which have a wall and railing for safety throughout the entire distance, can be seen in the listing pictures.
- We were unaware of an Internet problem as they were not reported while you were in the property, and no other guests have reported issues.
- It can be seen in the listing photos there are no shades.
We do all we can to make our homes the best possible stays, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.
