Beautiful lake vacation
This home on Lake DeRuyter was perfect for our extended family vacation. The house was equipped with all our needs. The owner was responsive with questions. The dock was perfect for fishing and swimming was great as weeds were well controlled. The property is dog friendly as well, which made this vacation even better. Will definitely stay again!

Easy to find, pretty accommodating
The owner was responsive to questions and I privately messaged him our concerns about the property's lack of cleanliness and some broken items that I hope he will address before the next person stays. He says he uses a maid service so obviously those issues start with them. The listing is slightly misleading as it says it sleeps 10, but there are 2 bedrooms that have 1 king bed in each and a 3rd bedroom that has 2 twin over full beds. We were fine cosleeping with our littles but if you want your own sleep space, consider bringing an air mattress.
Otherwise, the furniture was comfortable, the place was kid friendly, and the house was easy to find from the road. It was centrally located to all of the places we were visiting so that was very convenient.

Great low key lake house
We had 2 families, 5 kids and 4 adults altogether, and had a lovely time. The house is tidy has a nice view of the lake from the east side. The kitchen has almost everything you need. The bedrooms are perfect for 2 families with kids.

Incredible Value
The owner of this property couldn’t have been more accommodating! Due to flight challenges we arrived at the property @ 11pm. The owner stayed in communication w/us during our long drive from the airport, went out to the property to turn on lights even took a picture of the front steps & sent it to us. He gave us detailed instructions to find the house in the dark The roads in that area don’t have lights & we wouldn’t have been able to find the house easily had he not.
The house itself is an incredible bargain for the $, the lake view beautiful, the neighborhood peaceful. The mattress on the bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept on.
Our visit was for my daughter’s graduation. She had challenges packing & we ended up needing a late check out. Again the owner couldn’t have been more accommodating. On a scale of 1 to 5, I give the property a 10.

Nice house, beautiful lake location
This was our third year spending a week at this house; it is a nice house on a beautiful lake. We liked the fire pit, the deck and dock furniture, laundry, and master suite. This year we were very glad that Marc did some much needed upgrades and repairs. The lake is great for kayaking and there are fun sites and activities to do nearby.

The stay was okay not worth the cost to rent
This house is just ok. Check in was easy the house was clean but needed quite a bit of tlc. It was obvious that this house was remodeled years ago and has since just been rented out and minimal upkeep. Our first night we had no ac because there were no remotes for the ac the owner controlled them from his phone. We messaged him and he did come over the next afternoon to give us a remote so we could have ac. Also the first night we had no power downstairs called the owner and I had to reset the breakers for it. Also upon arrival we noticed that the dock was not in the water and we brought a boat from an hour and a half away to use it and couldn't. The owner did put the dock in on our 6th day so we could use the dock for 1 and a half days. The big deck down on the water has many rotten boards that makes it dangerous for dogs and family members. On the last day we woke up to no wifi in the house which is unacceptable because the signal in the area is terrible. Overall the owner is very nice and tries to do his best and is very responsive but in the end this was our worst vrbo yet.

This should be a 4 star rental if
I emailed owner prior to renting to ensure that his dock would accommodate our 20 ft boat. When we got there, the dock was in the weeds and broken. Owner should have known his dock was unusable. He was kind enough to let us use his fathers dock 5 camps down. Also, owner rented to people with a liter of puppies. Entrance and rug leading up to master smelled of animal urine. 4 stars if owner can fix his dock and clean home better.

Heaven
The reason for our trip was to visit family members and go to my Aunt's 80th birthday party. The property was absolutely beautiful. We checked in late about 930 or 10 and it was cold in the house but I sent Marc a text message and he fixed it within minutes. Any questions or concerns I had Marc was on it. It did not matter what time it was. We plan on renting again in August 2023. I would recommend this booking to anyone.

cold
The physical accommodations and location on the lake were very good. Over 7 days I made 8 requests for more heat. Although the owner usually responded promptly and the heat increased, the result was short lived. Mid-week at 9AM I reported that the temp. was 61 degrees throughout. On Fri., 7:30 AM I reported 56 degrees downstairs ( 2 bedrooms, bath and game room ) 61 degrees main floor ( kitchen, dining, living and 1/2 bath ) an 63 upstairs ( bedroom and bath ). The heat is controlled remotely by the landlord, although he responded in the short term, he never seemed to get the message.

Lake house
Enjoyed our stay, the house has lots of positive features. Beds were comforrable, swimming area very accessible, dinning table seats 8. It has limitations. The lower level sliding door was very difficult to open and close and the outside handle is broken, wrapped in duck tape. Oven door does not fully close even with the lock mechanism which becomes very hot. Did not pay for the A/C and many windows did not have scenes and were very hard to open. The lighting was poor due to blown light bulbs, did find some to place replace them. Beach chairs were scarce, some there but in bad shape, glad we brought our own camp chairs. The wooden dock needs some maintance. Smoke detector went off twice, finally found useable batteries to replace the expired ones. Exterior lighting was out both in the front and in the back. We replace the back light bulbs. Need new secure trash cans, the trash was tipped over multiple times during our stay by animals.
Great location, nice house just needs some maintance
