Cottage in Oswego
4.72 out of 5 average rating, 67 reviewsLake Ontario Sunset Bay Waterfront Cottage Oswego
Perfect location on the lake. Beautiful cabin with plenty of space for all four of us adults. I would 100% recommend this location especially in the summer when you can use the kayaks (it was a little cold this time of year for us). Host was quick to respond and super helpful! Thank you!!!

4.75 out of 5 average rating, 40 reviewsRomantic Cayuga Lakefront Hideaway - Amazing Views
The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway
Apartment in Sterling
5 out of 5 average rating, 7 reviewsFairHaven at its best!
This studio was a great place for our stay. Robb and his wife are amazing hosts who went above and beyond to make our time comfortable. The apartment was clean, cosy, and filled with all the things needed for our stay. The neighbourhood itself is very walkable and the village shops are only a five minute walk down the road. We wished we could've stayed longer.

4.75 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviewsSTAY ON Owasco Lake, ON LEVEL ground (no stairs).
My friends and I had a great stay here on the lake! It's a little closer to the neighbors than we were expecting but everyone was incredibly friendly and kind. The lake is a few feet from the house, which was exactly what we were looking for. Good price for what's offered, very peaceful experience!

Chloe's house at Skaneateles Lake is beautiful, it was clean and neat inside, the yard was big, the lake front was perfect. The house is spacious with beautiful bathrooms and kitchen. It is in a quiet neighborhood and felt very private. Karen, the manager, was quick to respond to my texts and extremely helpful.

Very charming house with everything we needed. However the most amazing part of our stay was the lakefront. Such a special place!! Large grass area with many chairs, beautiful view, easy access to the lake and all the kayaks and SUPs we needed!
Cottage in Skaneateles
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 27 reviewsSlate Cove Cottage
We loved our stay at this charming cottage right on the lake. The multigenerational rustic feel brought back fond memories of my youth on the lake. It was exactly what we were looking for. Kayaks and canoes were used by everyone. The weather was incredibly hot which encouraged all to jump in the lake. It is close to the village which allowed for quick trips to shop and enjoy its beauty and history. Barb was incredibly pleasant and the perfect host. Can’t wait to go back!

Cozy little cabin! Richard was very responsive and made sure we had what we needed to be comfortable. The kayaks and tennis court were big perks to the place. It’s a quick drive to the main street area where we shopped and enjoyed the views of the lake. Highly recommend!

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 43 reviewsForever Red Cottage on Cayuga Lake
Perfect spot for us to stay for our D daughter's graduation in Seneca Falls. Jennifer's place was so close to campus and beautiful spot on the lake. Cute and cozy lake cottage. Everyone had their own room and plenty of space to just hang out. We would have spent more time outside if the weather had held up. Would definitely stay here again.

This was our third stay at the cottage and we felt very welcome there. Can’t say enough about the view and how cozy the house is. Corinne is always available and ready to make our stay enjoyable. We will definitely be back again.
Cottage in King Ferry
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 50 reviewsCottage Atwater - Ithaca and Aurora
Superb location, privacy; the house was meticulously clean. Communication with the host was instantaneous, check in was flawless. The house is on a beautiful lake, secluded area, semi-private driveway leading to the house - doubles as a beautiful walking path by the lake; 30 min driving distance from Ithaca/Cornell/restaurants. Friendly community (no unleashed dogs, no loud music, etc) Completely stocked kitchen (including selection of coffee and teas), books, video games, painting supplies- rain or shine everyone was entertained. The orientation of the house is great - beautiful sunsets, the lake is viewed from all rooms. Real gem!

4.5 out of 5 average rating, 26 reviewsWaterfront near Skaneateles with outdoor hot tub
This was an absolutely wonderful place to stay. Even when it was cold, grey, and rainy outside, the home was incredibly cozy and the hot tub was wonderful when the rain subsided. It’s even more beautiful than the pictures and we had such a great view. If I come back to visit with a group this size again, this would definitely be where I’d stay. Thank you!
Guest suite in Auburn
5 out of 5 average rating, 31 reviewsCozy Apartment on Owasco Lake
The apartment was exactly what we were looking for - a comfortably elegant place to stay with beautiful and peaceful surroundings. The owners were so responsive, friendly, and easy to deal with. And that sofa in the living area - I could have sat there all day! We look forward to coming back in a year or two.

We had a really great time here! The pictures don't do this place justice. The lake views are amazing all throughout and the house and the deck and boathouse are also really good too. The house is also in a nice part of the lake that isn't crowded and is very serene and peaceful. The host was great with communication as well. We would definitely consider coming back to this place if we come back to the area sometime soon!

Jacci is definitely a super host! She met us to help check in & show us around which was super helpful. The home looked exactly as described. Jacci checked in to make sure we were doing great & went above & beyond to make our stay great. She is what every host should be! Cheers!

Guest suite in Aurora
4.57 out of 5 average rating, 7 reviewsCayuga Lake Getaway
This is a wonderful lakeside cabin. The yard is well landscaped and provides excellent privacy from the road and neighbors. The area is gorgeous, a short half mile walk from Long Point Park and also a nice walk from Aurora Brewing Company and Long Point Winery. The long bedroom off the kitchen provides a wonderful view of the lake through giant windows along one wall and a door right out to the deck. The bathroom off of this bedroom is very nicely designed as well, though note the water pressure is somewhat low in the shower. The other full bath had fine water pressure. The living room again has wonderful lake views with a sliding door out to the deck. Kayaks are provided and it is a lovely short kayak trip over to Long Point Park, just under 3 miles one way to kayak north to the Wells College boathouse, and about 2.25 miles across the lake to Thirsty Owl and Cayuga Ridge wineries. A gas grill and a charcoal grill are also available for some outdoor cooking. Brett’s father owns this cabin and he met us at the property for checkin, showed us around the cabin and property and gave us all of the information we needed. Brett handles communication through the airbnb app and he responds to questions very quickly. The cabin is not super fancy (hence cabin) but everything was clean and we didn’t see any insects of any kind inside. I would absolutely rent this cabin again for another weekend on the lake!

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 105 reviewsThe Dane House
Had a great July weekend! Jay’s Airbnb was exactly as described and was a perfect place to meet with old college friends to hang on Cayuga for a summer weekend. It is exactly as described and would love to come back again. Also, King Ferry Golf Club (1 min drive up the road from the house) is a terrific place to play a $22 twilight round with a group of friends, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun 9 hole course.

5 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviewsCayuga Lake historic home-Finger Lakes wine trail
This is a lovely home with every comfort you could want. The bonus to the house is the boat house with its shaded deck - we five seniors alternated sitting on the front porch of the house and the deck of the boathouse. It even has two sofas that are great for an afternoon nap with the sound of lapping waves! Nearby Sheldrake Point Winery was a fun and convenient spot to visit, but our favorite winery was Boundary Break in Lodi. We enjoyed great meals at Taughanock Inn and at Edgar’s in Geneva. Can’t wait to visit again!
Barn in Skaneateles
5 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviewsBarndominium
The finger lakes was our destination for a full getaway weekend. We were thrilled to find this property on Lake Skaneateles, our favorite of the finger lakes! We loved the Barndominium from the first moment we entered it! Amazing views! The one big room is comfy, spacious, well equipped, and nicely decorated. We loved having lake access and kayaks to use right on the water!! The pool table was fun to have evenings and on the 1 rainy day. Beds and furniture were comfy, and the bathroom shower was especially spacious. Would we come back? Absolutely!! Thanks for a beautiful stay!!

Our family had a wonderful vacation. The location is perfect, the kids loved being next to the marina, watching the boats, renting boats, swimming and fishing. I would absolutely rent here again! Thank you Jackie, our stay was perfect! The Fazekas Family

4.65 out of 5 average rating, 52 reviewsShady Beach Finger Lakes Home on Cayuga Wine Trail
Lisa’s pre-checkin instructions were thorough and accurate. We had a challenge with the door that proved to be operator error that she walked us through over the phone. Aside from that it was a wonderful place for our family to get together and relax including two active grandkids 3 and 8. We had everything we needed to make it a trouble free stay and keep everyone entertained. Across the driveway was a cow pasture which was very entertaining for the kids and adults plus there were some wonderful sunsets!

4.78 out of 5 average rating, 9 reviewsPicturesque Lakeside House on Skaneateles Lake!
The bungalow was perfect for being able to relax by the lake and jump in for a quick morning swim or paddle! Because it is so close to the lake, we constantly were in awe of the natural beauty. Even while making lunch in the kitchen, I was able to see the kids and watch all of the amazing sunrise / sunsets. A full 180 degrees of view!
Cabin in Skaneateles
4.91 out of 5 average rating, 23 reviewsPaul's Lodge on Skaneateles Lake
Paul's Lodge is a truly beautiful retreat on the lake. It was perfect for our wedding party. The house is gorgeous, the hot tub was amazing but the real star of the show was the outdoor waterfall shower. Don't wait, book it, I promise you'll fall in love like we did! We had such a nice time. Thank you to Paul for providing this getaway for my friends.
