Wonderful Property and Very Kind Host!
We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay on this property. The house is absolutely adorable, clean and very spacious! We had a group of 6 ladies and we could couldn’t believe how convenient the location was to the waterfront and everything Bemus has to offer! Kitchen was perfect for preparing food and the fire pit was great for a fall evening. A special thank you to Lori for her excellent communication and thoughtfulness☺️

Clean and convienient
House was clean and well appointed. Very comfortable, and local to the main downtown areas for walking. Due to age of the house, the bath and bedroom arrangement was a little different - had to walk through the bathroom to get to one of the bedrooms. Backyard with firepit was super nice for hanging out.

Not as promised.
This property was not refurbished as promised. Kitchen was very old, no dishwasher, old sink, limited counter use due to ants. Only one full bath, shower was so old it was permanently gray. Beds were very soft I think because they were old. Automatic locking device on door which we had never encountered before, and so we got locked out. Humiliating to be treated this way. Very steep steps going upstairs. Not for elders or people with knee issues. Probably ok if you have a lot of kids. Best thing was location in the center of town

Second stay at the Blue House
We love Lake Chautauqua and this property is PERFECT for the way we like to play in the area. Bemus Point is amazing. The location of this house in town is so convenient. The property is clean, well cared for and very very comfortable. We visited as adults with friends for a landmark birthday trip last year and brought our teen children and a couple of friends this year to visit the same spot. It's a win for us! - While you ae there, rent a boat from Bemus Bay Water Toys too great service!

Older, but nice house for a family
It was a nice place to stay and relax. The kitchen could use things like potholders and dish rags. Otherwise it is a great place to stay, clean, but definitely an older house.

Perfect family long weekend getaway
The location of The Blue House cannot be matched - literally steps away from the downtown area of the village. We took our parents and our kids for a family trip and the ease of the location made it possible for our elderly parents to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The home is very tastefully decorated with a lakeside theme. Everything we needed was there, including a shampoo/conditioner/body wash dispenser in the shower! We enjoyed dinners and game nights around the large dining room table and one evening by the fire pit our back - where we could see the lake at sunset. Lori was easy to contact and helpful with area info and even left a whole display of local guides at the house. We are already planning to return for a birthday celebration!
