Geräumige Owasco Lake Home für Große Gruppen, 2 Acres, Central Air

The property was beautiful with lake access, fire pit, nice grill, and huge lawn. The house comfortably slept 11 of us and had a nice sized kitchen and living room that we could all hang out in at the same time. The host was very responsive and accommodating and even mailed a pair of jeans back to one of our group who had accidentally left them behind. Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

The one thing that was a bit unusual to us (we're a group that frequently rents houses for weekends away) was that for this rental we were notified by mail a few weeks before our arrival date that we were required to bring most of our own basic supplies including toilet paper, garbage bags, paper towels, soap, dishwasher detergent etc... We were also asked to bring our own laundry detergent to wash , dry and fold sheets and towels prior to leaving on our departure day, which took a few hours as it was several loads. All in all it ended up not being a big deal and did not detract from our overall great time at this house, but it is a bit atypical of rentals in our experience to ask all this of guests and therefore might be helpful if mentioned up front in the listing rather than mailed out as additional instructions a few weeks before the arrival date.

All in all we had a great time and very much enjoyed our stay!

This house was good for the price and having lake access. We had a group of 12 friends get together for a long weekend and everyone fit comfortablly in the house. We spent the majority of the time hanging out on the dock and in the water. The kitchen was spacious and there was one large table that everyone could sit comfortably at. The house had access to use kayaks and a fire pit, which was a lot of fun. Overall we had a great time. The house was very clean, however just remember to shut doors right away because there were some bugs that got in the house because there is wooded area on one side of the property. The only downside was one bedroom did not have any windows (the trundle bedroom in the basement) and the stairs leading down to the lake could use some maintenance.

We booked this for a vacation for our extended family, and were looking specifically for somewhere near a lake but not necessarily right on the water. it worked out brilliantly. Christine the owner was kind, helpful, polite and very responsive. We had eight adults, in four couples, and a baby with us and there was plenty of space and beds for everyone. The house officially takes 20+ people and it was very comfortable for 9, with two sitting rooms, a dining room, plenty of outdoor furniture, and four large double bedrooms, a smaller double, and a single. There was a cot for the baby, enormous amounts of bedding and towels available, and plenty of comfortable places to sit.

The kitchen was very well stocked with pots, pans and knives, the oven was easy to use, and it was well-kept and clean. Because the house can be used for large groups, there were two fridge-freezers which was great as well as a barbecue on the patio. It was easy to cook for large groups in the spacious kitchen and there was a dishwasher, meaning that the cleaning up was pretty easy.

As had a 14 month old child with us, we wanted to make sure he'd be safe outside and that we would all be able to enjoy the water. The garden is huge - a long rolling lawn with a basketball hoop, benches and firepit. There's a short walk through a neighboring garden to get to the private dock and that proved ideal. The house has a pair of canoes and paddles, which we took out on the lake several times. Owasco Lake itself has quite a stony shore, but it was still possible to swim off the dock provided you wore waterproof shoes (recommended!).

There's a number of very good restaurants in Auburn - we particularly liked Moro's Table (fancy & French), Lasca's (family friendly, excellent Italian trattoria), and Green Shutters (diner-style restaurant with outdoor seating and lots of ice cream choices).

The Long Point State Park near the picturesque town of Aurora on Cayuga Lake and the pretty town of Skaneateles both offered good days out.

We would highly recommend this place for any family or large group looking for a comfortable, clean, pleasant place to stay in the Finger Lakes. It was lovely.

This house offers plenty of sleeping options including extra rollaway beds. The house has beautiful decor. There's plenty of dishes, pots & pants, and cooking utensils available. The nice piano was a big hit for us as well. Having plenty of dining space was great for us as well. Overall, we like the clean house, it was not luxurious house, but it definitely had everything we needed. There's plenty of parking spaces. The yard is huge in which we all enjoyed playing with our kids. We played bad mitten, volleyball, did s'mores at the nice fire pit, and used the picnic tables. We also loved that we have access to the lake and utilized the 2 kayaks included with the property. We did some swimming as well. The dock was nice to sit and watch beautiful sunsets. Yes, beautiful sunsets! Christine was very quick in responding to all of our questions. We all left this property feeling very happy and looking forward to another reunion here in the future. Thanks, Christine!

I had to book this house for a retreat for 24 hours for 30-ish college students. It turned out to be perfect for what we needed! Christine left out instructions for how to maintain the house when we left, and was kind enough to keep pamphlets about the surrounding area in the kitchen. It is a very quaint house with excellent space for group discussions, and has beautiful art on the walls too! Backyard is also perfect for outdoor activities, and the house is only 3 miles from a picturesque park for photos. It was a great weekend!
