We had a fantastic time at the lake house. Everything went so smooth and all the amenities were perfect! We will definitely come back 😎

10/10

We really loved the house and location. The place is perfect for relaxing and keeping away from the hustle and bustle. However, the house has the amenities to stay connected if you so choose to. The owner has a great setup. My wife is already thinking of going back. Only note to add is that if your family includes elderly or very young children, know that there are several stairs to get from the house to the lake side. Good exercise for some but can be tough for others.

I want to provide usable feedback for future renters. There were some definite pros, as well as some unnecessary cons with this rental. For some context, our group has six people in total for a week. My wife, both sets of our parents, and me. I will start with the pros: The inside was clean. We felt comfortable sitting on the sofas and the bed sheets were clean. The area is fantastic. Warwick is a short drive away and cool little town. Great coffee place called The Daily Bean was also close. It only took us an hour or so to get to Central Park in Manhattan. You can stand on the deck and look at the lake. It was too cold and windy for the boats, but they appeared clean and usable. The appliances worked well, although we had to fiddle with the thermostat a little, but the heat finally kicked on. The picture accurately represent the inside. Now for the cons: There were some odd things missing. It was known well in advance that there would be six people here for an entire week. Toilet paper- there was only three rolls in the entire house for us. We had to buy more. Unacceptable, but fixable. Iron and ironing board- none. However, we understand this is more of a cabin and most people won’t need an iron while coming here. But we could have used one. Closets- none. We had to hang our clothes on the coat rack. Hand soap- half empty bottles that were watered down. Unacceptable, but fixable. Shampoo- none. The listing said bathroom toiletries would be provided. Shampoo should be part of this. Had we not brought some, we would’ve needed to buy some. Trash bags- Not enough for the whole week. Unacceptable, but fixable. Vent above the shower was dirty and started dripping dirty water when the steam collected from the shower. Should be cleaned. Strong musty smell, especially in the kitchen. We had to strip the beds and put all the linen in front of the washer. Seems odd to do a vacation rental’s work for them after paying a decent amount of money. Bottom line- would we stay here again? Probably, but only if the above items were taken care of.

10/10

We were a family of 5 and had a wonderful stay! The layout was perfect. We enjoyed the spacious deck and big grill. Make a note 2 kayaks (1 adult/1 kid) and the site says there’s a pool table but there isn’t, maybe outdated info? But overall terrific! Owner very responsive and kind. Totally recommend!

Beautiful home! Plenty of kitchen items (plates, bowls, glasses, silverware, pots & pans, casserole dishes etc…) Comfortable beds, washer & dryer and very clean! The loft is amazing! We spent a lot of time on the wrap around deck.- we even used the gas grill. The views are gorgeous. Plenty of towels & washcloths. We will definitely stay here again. If we could give ten stars, we would.

If you want no working television, construction going on next door, living with the sound of trucks going by on the highway three houses away, one kayak, no two, half submerged in a decrepit, marshy and grungy waterfront and steep flights of stairs to reach it, this place is for you. No attempt at contacting the point person was returned. Still trying to get my money back. Not fun in any way. I wouldn’t let my dog drink the yellow lake water.

Beautiful lakeside retreat. The house was CLEAN. It was the first time we didn’t feel the need to clean a vacation rental when we got there. Being on the protected part of the lake behind the island is nice, as we could go out in the rowboat, even though there was too much wind in the main part of the lake. The internet was fast and had no issues. The house is about 30-35 ft over the lake level, and accessible via descending two sets of stairs.

Our group of four found this house to be roomy and comfortable. We could relax and enjoy the beautiful view, good fishing from the dock and the nearby charms of Waywayanda Park and Warwick, NY. It is well equipped (especially the kitchen- spices, dishes, pots, etc.) and we look forward to returning next year!

8/10

We recently stayed at the house at the end of July. The inside of the house is wonderful. It's clean, comfortable and has plenty of room for our 7 travelers. Having rented numerous houses in the past I will say that the beds are extremely comfortable. Usually, we are very weary about the beds in a rental. The two things I really disliked: just how far down the lake/dock are from the house. If you aren't comfortable climbing down 6 stories, this isn't the house for you. Also, the railings on all the outside decks are not secure. We just didn't lean up against any and we were ok, but I would be cautious with kids.

The location, cleanliness and amenities of this property exceeded expectations. The house is lovely and was very comfortable for four adults and three children. We enjoyed the boats provided and the nearby beaches. A new grill was delivered during our stay as the owner quickly responded to a complaint from a previous renter. It was a delightful experience!

8/10

Would rent again and Remember to bring creamer and sugar for my morning coffee. The scenery is the best although you have to be in some what shape for the stairs to the lake.

The property is beautiful. Located on a nice lake. Secluded, quiet neighborhood. I had to give this one a 3-star rating because of all the little details which led to inconveniences. 1. The door pad lock did not work. Had to call Del several times to help us get in. 2. The upstairs bedroom bed...one of the dowels was broken 3. The upstairs bathroom, the door knob was broken, lock did not work 4. The landscaping was very much overgrown. Poison ivy located all on the top area, leading to the stairs down to the dock. Weeds growing over the stairs and stepping stones leading to the dock. 5. No iron and ironing board Otherwise, it has such great potential. Maybe a good cleaning would help. Beautiful furniture. 5.

This house was exactly as advertised. Clean, lovely views, incredible deck area. . . Would definitely stay here again!

The house was very charming and great mountain and lake location. We had a great family weekend. This was our first trip to Vernon and we will return this winter for more snow sports. May I make a few suggestions to improve the experience of your home. Dining table needs repair. Broken gate leg. One downlite and kitchen undercounter lights need to be replaced. Repair broken towel bar in downstairs bathroom. Dusty window blinds need to be cleaned. Fry pans need replacing. Provide additional wine glasses. Two are not enough. Utility basket in dishwasher broken.needs to be replaced. Dishwasher is unstable and unsafe when pulled out and needs to be bolted to counter. Provide food storage wrap like Saranor foil. Provide a few additional blankets.

Overall this is a nice house, a beautiful spot on the lake with a great view, and a good place to stay with family. There are a few issues that caused me to give it a 4 star review instead of a 5 stars. The carpet was dirty, the downstairs bathroom sink was clogged, and the towel bar was loose and wouldn't stay on the wall. I could easily have fixed those things if I carried tools with me while on vacation but I don't and I suspect most other travelers don't either. Anyway, those small things should be taken care of before the house guest arrive. There were some other small details that i noticed in others reviews that I had hoped would have been addressed before we came and were not.- such as insufficient amounts of toilet paper. Also there was no Kleenex tissues and not enough towels for the amount of guest that it sleeps. The house is also far from everything and would be ok if you are planning to stay at the house and not go out to eat or shopping very often. Overall it is a very nice house and the view is beautiful. I think we would have enjoyed it more in the warmer months when you could enjoy the lake more but we did enjoy the house and would probably stay there again.

The main problem we had was getting there. It was very hard to find and we had to ask Troy at the lake club house who was nice enough to lead us there. Directions would be very helpful. There are many roads sounding similar.

Nice, clean and open space situated in front of a beautiful lake. We had a great time at this cozy house. I wish I could've stayed here a little longer to spend more quality times. I hope the house opens for summer and looking forward to coming back with friends. Thanks!

8/10

My girlfriend and I rented this for a NYE getaway. With my luck, an arctic blast made its way through and everything was frozen and not much to do, but I was fine with staying indoors and relaxing for a little break. The beds were cozy as was the rest of the house. They had a stove for a wood fire, but there was only a single log there so I never got a fire going. The Dish Network television worked for Netflix but I couldn’t watch anything live; luckily I had my iPad. The one thing I really wasn’t a fan of was that this propert is listed through a vacation rental agency and I had never dealt with one of those before on VRBO. I didn’t like that they wouldn’t let me pay off the balance sooner as they wanted to automatically charge my card one month prior to my arrival. I called a second time and begged to pay earlier as I had expenses of Christmas gifts etc. and I just wanted to pay it off. I’m used to dealing with the honeowner in case I have a question or something wasn’t working; when working with a rental agency, you don’t have that same comfort or assurance. The house itself was nice but I picked a poor time of year to rent it and I wouldn’t recommend it for a winter getaway, but I’d bet it would be nice in spring or summer when things aren’t frozen.

We were looking for a nice property to go with family and friends for a long weekend and go snow tubing. Everything was clean and we enjoyed our stay immensely. During the winter months you can't go out on the lake but the view is beautiful and we would definitely rent in the summer so we could go out on the lake. If there were any issues I was given a phone number to call and the property manager helped me when I had a question the night of our arrival. It is close to Warwick and Mountaincreek (for skiing or snow tubing). I would book ahead of time for skiing or snow tubing since it fills up quickly. Thanks for a great stay and we would definitely rent here again!
