Very rustic. It felt like a time portal to 1960-something, which was fun in a way. I didn't feel comfortable sitting on the furniture as it was pretty gnarly. The bathroom smelled really funny, there must have been a lot of air in the water pipes. But it did seem like they cleaned it well. I appreciated that even the dishes matched the era of the house. That was kind of cute. For for someone who may have grown up in the 60s or 70s, it would be a really cool memory lane. :) the price was very reasonable and there was a little porch overlooking the canal that went to the lake. That was really lovely.
We had a great time! it was everything we expected. If your looking for the Ritz go somewhere else. This cottage had everything we were hoping for.We are looking forward to next year!
Our cottage was adorable!!! Everything was very accommodating, cabinets fully stocked, comfortable beds, beautiful lake view and close proximity to everything we were there for. We canât wait to come back!
We had a nice stay at this property..the property is as listed an older fishing camp....but was good for the price. If you are looking for a rustic older fishing camp to stay it is what you are looking for ..no air conditioning which at this time of year is something that is very nice to have.
Well situated to visit Chautauqua and Jamestown. Enjoyed kayaking. With some TLC, this place could be adorable. Windows and screens were quite dirty; otherwise clean.
We came to fish, the cottage is our of the 50s and a true lake cottage feel which i enjoyed. It is a short walk to the dock where we docked our own fishing boat. Have booked 3 times in lasy 2 yearsthe last l
Nested between an inlet ( back yard) and lake ( one row ahead), the rental was clean and quiet. The cottage is from the 1950âs with many original furnishings.
First off, this place looked nothing like the photos in your ad. Second it is infested with bedbugs and I have over 150 bites on me. Thirdly you should actually send someone to review the place before you let them advertise with you.
The pictures made the place look much nicer than it was. The bathroom wasn't properly cleaned. The water is pretty nasty. The bedrooms are on the 2nd floor, the bathroom on the 1st - can be challenging at night for we seniors. The price is great for the location but, as I should have realized, you get what you pay for.
This is what we were looking for, a place to sleep close to a function we were attending. Place is clean and beds comfortable. Had a problem getting door to lock and used the back door. Never could get volume on TV to work.
The pictures on line are very deceiving. Wouldn't stay there again. We left the place one day earlier. Drains were clogged the windows and the window seals were filthy. So I lost 75.00 dollars cause we didn't stay the second day.
We rented this cottage twice this summer. We enjoyed it thoroughly both times! Sandy is a great guy, and the cottage was comfortable & had everything we needed (except for silverware - haha. We were toying with the idea of stopping at a garage sale to stock the place up... :). It's a well-priced cottage for the type of rustic experience it provides. It's not lakefront, so you're sacrificing sunsets and the shimmers of the sun off the water, but the dock access across the street that comes with the cottage was top notch. We have a 19' Sea Ray bowrider and were able to dock it with lines on both sides of the boat at the dock. The only drawback about this spot on the lake is that it is super shallow. I scratched up my new prop and skeg pretty significantly the first time we were there, but learned my lesson the second time around, when I installed a depth finder on my boat & also raised the outdrive above the trim level when putt-putting in and out of the dock for about the first 100 yards off shore. Overall, we loved the experience - and look forward to coming back next year as our schedules avail. Thanks, Sandy!
Very functional cottage and well stocked with everything you would need; towels, utensils, etc. Conveniently located near the lake plus a short drive to Bemus Point. The fire pit in the backyard was nice to have. We would stay again.
When booking I messaged the owner and asked about the dock and never got a response. The main reason I booked this house was to be right on the water. When walking down the road to find the dock that was in the picture we were approached by a woman that told us that it was private property and we were not allowed to be there. Neighbors were loud also and we could not enjoy the time outside at the fire pit. We did not stay the second night as it was so hot upstairs and uncomfortable. I would suggest the owner take down the picture of the dock on water as this is deceiving to anyone who wants to be on the water. We booked 2 nights but left after one night. I would not recommend.
