Celebrating 60
The finger lakes are our families favorite place to visit, so when deciding how to celebrate my 60th birthday, the decision was easy. I have rented the house in the past and it is one of my favorite homes to stay in. It is comfortable, clean and is in the perfect location! Looking forward to returning!

Wonderful home!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this home. Prior to our stay the property manager, Tony, quickly responded to my questions. He was great when we were there, too, and wanted to extend our stay for a few days. The house is beautiful, with everything we needed. By far, it was the best stocked house weā€™ve stayed in. Everything we needed was there. I was somewhat concerned about the stairs to the beach, but there are benches at each level, if one needs a bit of a rest. I highly recommend choosing this home. We hope to return sometime.

We lived the dream at Sunset Beach Lake House
This was our families fifth summer renting on Owasco Lake. Our first time at the Sunset Beach lake home. We took full advantage of all this beautiful home had to offer. Coffee morning views on the upper deck, paddling, floating, swimming, fishing & playing on the beach front most of the day then family dinners on the covered deck and ending our day with a fire and sā€™mores. The beds were comfortable and the decor inside exactly as pictured on the website. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with accessories; leave your beach towels at home! We hoped to return in 2025 but July was already booked. Weā€™ll try earlier next year!

Beyond Amazing!!!
I was trying to think of a word to describe our stay here last week and amazing just doesnā€™t cover it. The house is gorgeous inside and out and we had such a wonderful time that we barely left the property! The location is perfect with beautiful sunsets and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. In the description, it gives you a short list of things you should bring and they werenā€™t kidding! Everything and more is provided! I greatly appreciated that there was just one step into the home for my elderly mother as well as a first floor bedroom for her. The owners were great and answered any questions we had with fast communication. We are already looking at when we can come back to visit. This house is an absolute dream!

WONDERFUL.
I've stayed at a number of VRBO's. And many of those were lake houses. This property has to be one of the best. The house is fantastic, The location is fantastic, the deck and dock are fantastic. Tony is very accommodating and very good at communicating. Everything you could possibly need is located in the house or in the garage for your use. Paddleboards, kayaks, life jackets, additional chairs, etc. The outside living space / dining room was a great place to share dinner and breakfast. The awning over the rear deck made the space usable at all times. We will be back.

We had a wonderful family get together. Even on a rainy day, there were plenty of spaces to accommodate a variety of activities for both adults and toddlers. Our local hosts, Tony and Joette, went out of their way to make this a memorable stay. We appreciated the cleanliness of the place and the quality of the beds, towels, and appliances. This was our second stay and we look forward to our third!

Beautiful Cottage, Excellent Hosts
My siblings rented four cottages on Lake Owasco for a nephew's wedding and family reunion, and by all accounts this was the best house. Gathering areas inside and out were spacious, modern and comfortable, all with great views. I loved the various places to sit outside, shaded and sunny, but sipping wine at the end of the dock while watching the sunset was simply the best! Special kudos to our hosts: In addition to excellent communication generally, they accommodated a family member with allergies by providing fragrance-free linens and towels, and even stocked special soaps for our use. I also appreciated the artistic touches throughout the home and the lovely welcome basket. Our hosts clearly care about the home and the happiness of their guests. Thank you Tony & Joette!
