Fairhaven October 2023
A nice out-of-the-way cottage style place to stay. Very quiet in the off-season. Hot water is hot, steep stairs to access from the road. Great decks lakeside. Some living room furniture could use updating and the cottage could use some maintenance (awning, dishwasher, outdoor lighting). Queen bed was comfortable and clean.

Cozy Cottage right on Lake
Our daughter and my hubby and I had a fabulous fun time at Keuka Lake!! Total relaxation with the sounds of the lake lapping at the dock at night.We just did whatever we wanted after sleeping in each morning. Tried some fishing ( I couldn't hook them) afternoons we went wine tasting, purchasing a few. Checked out some of the Falls Ate out and cooked in both. We had a great time and found the cottage perfectly charming. We will be back!

Nice with some hitches
Overall nice place. Windows dirty and dead bugs found near cups but overall clean in the house. Outside awning did not retract, outdoor light by house didn’t turn on and bees nest was seen behind speaker. Dishwasher stopped working after one cycle. Sleeping accommodations were good for my teenage daughter and I. The bunk beds are normal size, would not fit anyone taller than 5’8”(which was advertised as such). Window air conditioning units worked. Bathroom small but sufficient. Water mat was fun to play/ sun on. Grill worked perfectly. Loved the upper deck. Overall had a good, relaxing time.

Beautiful little cottage truly meant for couples only or perhaps with smaller children. Steep stair entry would make this difficult for elderly or disabled! Amenities good however tight shower not meant for taller individuals! Still would highly recommend!!

Great getaway for 1 or 2
Needed time alone on the lake by myself! Good place to do that. Since we had hot temps early, the air conditioner was still covered - so the first night was very hot, but it was cooler after. Great location for access to Steuben Brewery and events there. It was very peaceful and everything I needed was there. Since early in the season, the front side (lake side) of the house needed cleaning from winter cobwebs and such. Overall worth the stay.

Perfect, right on the lake. Good fishing from the dock. Being in the cove was nice and calm from the rough water. Would make this reservation again for sure

nice but two problems
Clean, well-equipped, comfortable bed, great lake- sitting. But deck boards had rotten spots and sewage was overflowing from manhole very near to lake, which we didn't notice until morning we left - needed emptying badly. Told neighbors who knew owner. Yuck . And not good for lake, either.

Good value for price
Location was great and being on lake was exactly what we wanted. Place was outdated, couch was musty and old. However, if i wanted a much better cottage, it would have cost quite a bit more. So, for what we spent for the stay, it was fine. I would recommend to property manager to provide list of recommendations for things to do and places to eat in the area for guests.

Nice place
The place was great and fit the description online - clean and relaxing. It has everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Our only complaint was we brought our own canoe and there is no way to get it from the road to the water given the way the property is situated. One of the awesome neighbors, however, allowed us to use their staircase to carry in on our arrival and out on our departure.

Good little house on the lake
Location was great and the house was everything we were looking for. Outdated appliances which was very inconvenient since we brought our own food to cook. The oven filled the house with smoke so unusable. There was no camp fore pit which was disappointing for the kids. Some rotten boards on the deck. The swimming and kayaking was great from the location

The perfect weekend getaway RIGHT on the water
I can’t not say anything better about this sweet little cottage. Nestled right on the west side of the lake across from the penninsula. It was SO clean. We had 4 adults and 2 slept in the bunk room which wasn’t super ideal but because of the location and view who cares!! That view to wake up to is unbelievable!! Thank you again. You helped us fall in love with the area.

nice value for the money
the house has everything you need and is right on the lake and is near wineries. i launched my kayak right from the dock-- no fault of the owners of course but as of mid-september when we were there, there was unfortunately construction occurring next door. they start at 7:30 am and run until 4 pm during the week. it was an absolute bummer since i had pictured hanging out at the deck-- so be sure to ask about construction before booking.

Cozy but needs attention
Clean, Ac works well, well equipped with kitchen products, toiletries, plenty of blankets, comfy sleeping, great view. Power retractable awning a plus. Disappointed with boat dock-minor boat damage due to insufficient padding-large metal pole holders bolted to the side of the dock ripped off my side molding in wavy conditions. Upper dock carpeting is ripped and moldy, some broken chairs, loose rotted, deck boards, smelly septic system when out grilling, and there’s a new house being built next door with nail gun noise and traffic. Driveway was blocked upon arrival. Could’ve been better for the comparative properties nearby
