Clean and comfortable. Bedroom layout a little awkward having to go through one bedroom to get to the other bedroom.

My husband needs a place to stay for work and this place was exceptional. He definitely enjoyed his stay and would never go back to staying in a hotel if possible. The place is immaculate and Deanne was very patient and very helpful as a host.

A Great Little Place to Stay
We admittedly didn't spend much time at the house because we spent most of our time at a horse show, but we found the property perfect for our needs. We did have an issue with check in, but the host very promptly got us our check in instructions and we very much enjoyed the rest of our stay.

Nice house in Auburn
This house was just right for the three of us. We are originally from the area so the location was perfect for us. It was great having a washer and dryer. The hair dryer was missing and the owner brought me one that night. The bathroom was on the first floor so you had to navigate the stairs carefully but the stairs were well lit.The house was very comfortable. A ceiling fan in the bedroom would be nice and a stopper for the sink in the kitchen.

Better option than hotel
Easy access and nice neighborhood. Dad and teenage daughter weekend trip so she was happy to habe her own room. Had home cooked meals instead of over priced restaurant food. Cozy home as expected from listing. Would definitely do again if in town.

Decent
Good for a quick stay, but not much longer. Overall clean, but sparse amenities throughout: Updates needed in the kitchen; a larger TV would be a plus; and beds / linens need to be upgraded. Not a bad stay, but a little pricey for what is offered.

Great place to stay. Near the lakes. Enough space for a19 ft boat.
Very clean property. Short drive close to the lakes. Nice for a cozy get away for 2. My partner and I were able to park a 19 ft boat on the property with no problem so we could boat on Oswasco lake and Skaneateles lake. Oswasco Lake was beautiful and quiet. On the day it rained we were able to spend some time in Auburn. Very historical town. The Willard Chapel was beautiful and a must see. Great pubs for a day or night out. The host was reachable prior to our stay and answered any questions we had very quick to respond. Very clean house, the rooms were cool, cozy and comfortable. Small deck in the back with a fenced in area. Definitely would recommend staying here and will tell friends about this place. We will stay here again. Nice time away from home.
