Gateway to the Adirondacks on the River “The West”
We had three very nice nights! The apartment was bigger than we anticipated and very well appointed. It’s right on a busy corner, so we heard the snowplows during the night (lots of snow!!), but was otherwise peaceful with the sound of the river. Joe was very flexible with dates when we had to shift because of weather. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Moose River cottage on the water in Old Forge
Had an amazing stay! Will definitly be staying with sandra in the future! Thank you so much!

Lakefront location on Oneida Lake
There isn’t enough space to share all the great things about this place. Remarkably clean, modern amenities, comfortable furniture, and on and on. The hosts are friendly and easy to get ahold of if needed. This is our second stay and it’s was just as beautiful as it was 3 years ago. It’s definitely one of the best places we have ever stayed at. The added bonus is the beautiful lake with easy access for seasonal enjoyment.

Waterfront suite over looking Lake Ontario
We enjoyed our weekend stay in Kingston, the location was perfect - right downtown with restaurants and other attractions just steps away. The unit is large and spacious, including kitchen and laundry facilities. We recommend this location to everyone.

Waterfront Gem: 1BR w/Private Balcony & Serenity
Fantastic experience! Kelly was very clear with instructions, check-in was an absolute breeze. Upon arrival we found the space exceptionally clean and well stocked with everything you could ever wish for. The bed was extremely comfortable and the views along the river did not disappoint. Also loved being able to have a campfire after a long day of hiking. Great place :)

Riverside at Alexandria Bay (B)
This was a beautiful and peaceful stay. Right on the water with a sandy swimming area and dock. Absolutely gorgeous. Severin and his wife made us feel right at home, supplying us with firewood to use at their fire pit and water bottles upon arrival. This comfortable studio was very clean and cozy, perfect for a relaxing weekend. Private, free parking available!

Cozy 1 bedroom apartment in the Rondout Kingston
Really clean and comfortable place

Special Nest w Private Entrance River View Porches
Sarah’s place is very spacious! The neighborhood was very quiet (I was there on a weekend) especially compared to the experience of my friends who stayed in the middle of Newburgh. It was the perfect space to wind down in at the end of the day. The house does make noise but Sarah is upfront about that and I didn’t think it was that bad! I also enjoyed the tech free space, that was a feature for me.

West Side Lakefront Beach House
Rick & Kim’s place was absolutely incredible!! My boyfriend proposed to me on our trip and Rick & Kim’s response was overwhelming in the best way!! Cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond to make our stay that much more special. Looking forward to our next stay!!

Cape Vincent 1000 Islands Retreat- St Lawrence Rvr
We had a great stay. Host met us at the door and showed us around. We two adults, two kids, and a dog and we had room to spare. Kitchen was very well equipped, easy street parking right in front, and though no washer the laundromat was right across the street. Easy walk to cute downtown and the river too. Michael was very communicative and made sure we had a great time. For sure would stay again.

Camp Run Lake House
Amazing lake side property, the lake is literally 10 steps away from the yard. House is spacious, well maintained, definitely would love to go back for longer stays. Highly recommended

It’s time to plan your lake vacation for 2025
We booked this home after changing our trip dates and losing the original house we rented. Boy, was it worth it!! The home is Beautiful! The views, natural light, huge master bathroom, and the most comfortable couch were just some of our favorite things. One of the bedrooms had kids' books and toys, and it was perfect for our 4-year-old daughter. The owners' communication with us was at its best! We look forward to returning next year!

Modernist Lakefront Sojourn
The house is set lakefront with a beautiful , peaceful and private view . It is very well equipped and super comfortable with many different seating selections and hang out spots. We enjoyed the many hiking trails around the house and the gas fireplace along with the jacuzzi! We were disappointed with the late 5pm check-in unless we wanted to pay extra for earlier. We have always had a 2-4 pm check-in nine years using Airbnb. Paying $400 a night made the first night a short one. We did have a relaxing wonderful vacation.

Lake Ontario Beachfront Retreat | Two Full Homes
everything was labeled and directions and information was easy to get. My family really enjoyed our stay. wonderful sandy beach.

Waterfront Lake Ontario/Port Bay w/ Private Beach
Gorgeous place and even though the weather was misty, view of the lake was incredible. I’d definitely stay again! Only thing to be aware of is the shared driveway with the other rental property. 4 cars of theirs to our 2 was a bit crowded. Otherwise I highly recommend.

6 BR, Spacious Waterfront House in Quinte West
A beautiful house, great to host a large group of friends as it has great capacity. Highly recommended.

The condo was great! We stayed for a ski weekend and enjoyed the beautiful view of mirror lake, access to the indoor pool and hot tub and easy walk to shops.

The Historic Oneida Lake House - Condo 4
The condo is beautiful and perfect location! We liked having the beach right in the backyard and seeing the beautiful sunsets! Quick walk to everything in town. Plenty of bath and beach towels provided. My kids had a blast with the arcade game! Host is quick to respond. We would def book again at this house!

Extremely clean. Nice and high end decors and linens. Has all the cookware and kitchen stuff you need. Very comfortable staying there. Close to grocery store.

Luxury Condo | Hot Tub | Pool | Lake Front | FLX
This was an excellent fit for our family of four, with comfortable sleeping and hang-out space. Everything was extremely clean, and the environment welcoming and quiet. We enjoyed playing games at the kitchen table, having a well-equipped kitchen, laundry, and fitness room. We would love to be back when it's warmer to take advantage of the outdoor amenities and convenient walking location.

Canandaigua Lake Front Condo, Beach, PickleBall
We had a wonderful stay. The views were absolutely stunning. It was a perfect way to ring in the new year. Amy was very responsive, and the house was perfect. We hope to return one day.
