Property owner very disappointing
Dealing with the property manager for this property was strange, extremely painful and borderline unacceptable. First she wanted me to crate my dog while I was away which I think is inappropriate for a ‘pet friendly’ listing. Next she was very weird about the check in process. I had to text her my drivers license then take a photo of my car with the license plate of front of her property to get the entrance code to open the door. Then when I got there and texted her SHE FAILED TO ANSWER FOR HALF AN HOUR!!!! I was completely disgusted and was starting to think I had been scammed and would be forced to turn around and cancel my plans. Completely unacceptable in my opinion. Then her place has stuff EVERYWHERE. Then on the last night that I stayed there she texted me with information about what I had used in the house like she had entered the premises without telling me. I will never stay there again and I would encourage anyone else to have an extreme amount of pause before booking here.

Property was fine for our group, but a group of 48 year old men shouldn’t be treated like infants from a host who is collecting a high fee for their property.

Excellent spot for family to convene
We had a great stay at this house. Communication with the host was excellent, and she was on top of any issue that arose. This home was perfect for my family members (all grown now) to each have a place of their own, while still allowing perfect together-time. Perfect access to the lake with absolutely gorgeous views, lovely grounds and visiting ducks!

A Bit of a Rough Start
There was some confusion around check-in. We booked this rental just 2 days in advance and didn't receive the owner's email with their rental contract until we arrived in Canandaigua. It was a long electronic form with many paragraphs that had to be initialed, and this we had to do on a phone in the car, on somewhat clumsy software, in order to receive the door code. It was eventually agreed that we could get into the house to use the wifi on our laptop. With patience and persistence on everyone's part, we worked it out.

Relaxing location
Enjoyed my stay in Canandaigua. It was a great location to base out of to enjoy the lake but also explore Letchworth State Park, Watkins Glen State Park and the wine region of the Finger Lakes. Nancy was an attentive host, on property early mornings sweeping/prepping the outdoor area to ensure a beautiful environment For her guest. She is very knowledgeable of the area and offered great recommendation of places to go and things to see. I found the property to be consistent with the listing and well equipped for someone who likes to cook with a beautiful range and oven. I enjoyed the deck and views. Thanks for a nice stay.
