Very nice lakefront property in a quiet area. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and the dock. Kitchen amenities are well stocked. Bedrooms are on the smaller side but still comfortable for two. No AC in the bedrooms but they do have fans. Overall we were very pleased.

Beautiful cottage, couldn’t get any closer to the lake! Deck and the dock were perfect for our morning coffee! Fire pit was perfectly placed for a fall evening by the fire! Everything was clean and as expected from the listing!

Fingerlakes Stay

My husband and I were supposed to go with another couple but they ended up having to cancel last minute due to an emergency. My husband and I still went due to it being too late to cancel. The house was spacious and nice. One complaint was some issues with the main bedroom overheating even with trying to turn heat down. Definitely enough space to enjoy with multiple people. Location and the view was WONDERFUL. We had such a fun time and will definitely visit the area again.

Three Generations, Lovely Wedding Weekend

It was the first time to the Finger Lakes for many of us. This beautiful spot made us fall in love. Had everything we needed. Very peaceful. We were prepared for the stairs so not a problem. My 12 y.o. caught a fish off the dock. Checkout instructions were very clear which was appreciated. Would seriously consider coming back.

The Bluff's Charm has charm to spare!

We loved our stay at Bluff's Charm. The pictures and property description are perfectly accurate. It is a quiet, relaxing place. We appreciated all the little details: the hosts even left us eclipse glasses! And yes, there are LOTS of steep stairs. However, each staircase leads to a landing with a bench and a view. In fact, there are many delightful seating areas on the property, from cozy living room sofas, to the deck just outside it, to the brand new dock and the enchanting cabana. Lovely spots to enjoy a cup of coffee, a good book or conversations with friends. Plenty of room in the house for the seven of us. And the kitchen was first rate. Our stay at Bluff's Charm was far too short, but we do hope to return!

A fine few days with friends and wine

Great location and a very clean and comfortable house. We have already made reservations to return next year. Only wish there had been clearer information about the number of stairs involved, both from the street to the house and the house to the beach. Not a deal breaker but awareness beforehand would have helped. This would not be a place for folks with mobility issues. Great place! Definitely recommend.

Lovely Week at the Lake

Everything was as expected, clean and comfortable. There are a lot of stairs to water so this might be difficult for very young kids or older adults.

Relaxing week

The description of the property was accurate and helpful particularly the info on the number of steps down to the lakefront. This was helpful in planning. The house was immaculately clean, large, comfortable and stocked with everything you could need to feel at home. We particularly loved how many games, puzzles and books were available to keep us involved and engaged with each other. While communication on office hours was clear about the hours of availability they were nonetheless very responsive after hours. We would definitely stay here again.
