  The house was beautiful and easily accommodated our group of 11! Our host, Catherine, promptly answered all questions. The location was excellent. We enjoyed many walks into town and to Lake Keuka!

• Hammondsport large home

  4/5

  Lovely owner who was very responsive. Maintenance being performed during our stay made it a bit awkward. Some exterior doors could not be locked because this is a very old house and it was hot so the doors stuck. But overall this is a lovely home that met our needs and we would book again.

• Wonderful home for our family gathering

  5/5

  14 adult members of my family traveled from different cities around the country for a birthday celebration. When booking a large home, I typically worry that the group might feel cramped - like we’re living on top of each other. This home is unique because almost every bedroom has its own bathroom, so we never felt like we were waiting in line for bathroom time. Also, the hot water held up for so many showers! Two of the rooms are considerably smaller than the others, but luckily my family was very diplomatic when choosing rooms. There were a few of us who didn’t mind taking those rooms. It was unseasonably warm during our visit, and each room had its own air conditioner, making things very comfortable. Because it was so unseasonably warm, the shared rooms did feel a bit warm at times - if you are driving to town, just bring a fan or two from home. Also, the host brought by and installed an additional unit for the kitchen - thank you! We enjoyed drinking coffee in the covered patios every morning. And there are two large living rooms, so there was plenty of space to spread out and visit. It was great having a grill to make burgers and hot dogs. Catherine, the host, went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special. I have to say that she is the best and most considerate rental host I’ve ever had. The yard is large and spacious and I imagine that during the right time of year (too hot for our visit), large groups would really enjoy the yard. Some previous reviews shared that the house was a bit cluttered with decorations but we just embraced its charm. It’s hard to find a large, spacious house that feels accommodating for a big group, and this one fits the bill. Lastly, a recommendation related to Hammondsport: Knowing that many restaurants now struggle to accommodate large groups for dinner reservations, we arranged for a catering order from The Village Tavern. They were wonderful!

• Great stay at the Finger Lakes

  5/5

  My family had a wonderful weeklong stay at the Finger Lakes. The home was just what we needed. Everyone enjoyed the time in the house and around the community of Hammondsport. When not out traveling we had a relaxing time just staying at the house and the kids really enjoyed their time in the pool. The large dinning room table was just what we needed for our meals. We plan to visit again and would be happy at this house if it is available. Thanks to the team and the owner for a wonderful vacation.
