The main living space is open and spacious with wonderful views of the lake, with a wall of windows looking towards the lake and a 65" HD TV with many streaming channels. The kitchen is new, with plenty of countertop space and some island seating for 4, there is a dining room table inside for group dining or board games. We have a large seating area indoors for movie watching or simply hanging out…although you'll probably spend more time outside! There is a large deck with a gas grill and plenty of greenspace on the lawn for games or simply playing! The outdoor furniture includes a 2-person hammock and outdoor dining set for al fresco dining and a picnic table in the backyard. While enjoying the large yard, don’t forget to bring some wood with you for campfires and make yourself comfortable on the Adirondack chairs that surround our fire ring situated lakeside. There are 2 kayas and bikes for your use. There is ample seating at the picnic table on the dock for enjoying coffee @sunrise or ice cream while watching sunsets. Enjoy a simple walk across the street for an ice cream cone! Yes! You are that close to the perfect summer!

We are only minutes from the cute towns of Lakewood, Jamestown and Mayville which has anything you would need. A 15-minute drive (10-minute boat ride) to Bemus Point. You are welcome to tie your boat off on our own secure boat cage on our OWN private dock during your stay (June - mid October) The water depth is at approx. 3.5' to 4 ft deep around our dock, so docking your boat should not be a problem.

Another great stay, as always
This is our second stay at this location (and 4th or 5th on Chautauqua). Our kids demanded that we come back to the same house for its great dock, proximity to ice cream, and overall relaxing vibe. We had an excellent time and can't wait to do it again.

Great place for a relaxing getaway
Beautiful views from the master bedroom and the living room. The weekend we stayed was a rainy fall weekend. and we loved playing cards, drinking coffee, enjoying the views with our college age daughter and new born.

Lovely Lake House
This home was in a great location. The house was spotless and decorated so nicely with lake themes throughout the home. The ice cream store across the street was a bonus, and my weight gain tells it all. We enjoyed using the kayaks and our son walked daily to Lakewood for a cup of coffee. The kitchen had everything needed to make family meals. It was a very nice vacation and we always enjoy coming back to the Lake.

Excellent as Always!
We just feel so at home at this property! We enjoyed all of the upgrades! It was particularly nice to be greeted by you and your husband! Bringing our daughter and son-in-law’s boat proved to be even more fun, and it was well protected during a couple of the thunderstorms we encountered.

CHQ Family getaway
Enjoyed our stay very much. House worked well for our extended family of 7. Covered deck was a hit when the weather changed. Frequent visits to Bemus and walks to the ice cream shack made the week complete.

Can’t ask for more
Great house, great host, great everything. First off I have to say that it was a very special stay this time. We have been coming to the lake for 30 years and this year was something different as we lost MOM recently. The lake was her favorite place to be with her family and Elizabeth couldn’t have been a better host for this. Everything is provided. Kitchen stuff that you wouldn’t even think of, outside chairs, kayaks, bikes, etc. is all there. The dock is beautiful and the deck addition is perfect. I am glad we were able to dedicate her life this week at a house like this. You won’t be sorry with this property. Cheers!
