Great House & Host/Manager!
This house was perfect for our getaway bachelorette party for my best friend and 10 other girls. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the common area was also large enough for us to spend most of our time there eating, drinking, playing games, and just spending time together (when we were not out tasting all of the wine, of course!). There was a glitch in the VRBO site stating that the property check out time was noon in two places but then on the day of check out, I saw there was another place that said 10:00 a.m. Sue was very understanding and allowed us to stay until noon, and any other questions I had during my stay were responded to within minutes. 10/10 - Highly recommend.

Mid-Week Finger Lakes Visit
We loved the house! It had everything we needed and then some. The rooms were open and allowed for our group of 12 to relax, dine or just hangout on one of the many decks. The decor was pleasantly not cluttered. The house is located between Hammondsport and Penn Yan; lots of wineries near by. We had a great dinner at the Mansion and lunch at the Weiney. Do t miss Watkins Glen.

Golf Divas weekend
Keuka Kara is the perfect house for large groups! The most spectacular view of Keuka Lake from a lovely large great room! The kitchen has everything you could possibly want or need for entertaining. The bedding was top notch and comfortable! Sue provided items that are not usually provided in many rentals, such as soaps, toiletries, linens and many pantry products for cooking and storage. My group has been coming to the Finger Lakes for many years and I have to say that this property is the perfect property for us! The location is fantastic, the rooms are large and furnished tastefully, individual heating and cooling in each bedroom, and loads of other amenities. I do however agree with what a previous reviewer mentioned in their review, that the lack of a dresser or closet or anything to hang clothes on in two of the bedrooms was very inconvenient. Also, a mirror was missing in one of the bathrooms and not replaced. Any questions we had were responded to promptly. All in all, we had a great three day stay with the exception of Mother Nature was not in the mood for sunshine! We will definitely rent this wonderful property again and hope for great weather next year to go along with this great house! Thank you Sue.

Relaxing stay
Our extended family of 12 enjoyed a relaxing week on Keuka Lake. The house was right on the lake, and we enjoyed kayaking and paddle boating, as well as the fire pit and corn hole. There are numerous wineries to visit nearby, as well as excellent ice cream. The house was fairly well stocked and came with some unexpected amenities such as trash bags and laundry detergent. Our only complaints were that the kitchen could use a large cutting board and some bedrooms had neither a dresser nor a closet, so we lived out of a suitcase for the week. Overall a great stay!

This was a great property that met all of our needs! It was large enough for each family to have their own space but also very welcoming to come together in the common areas. The house is in a fabulous location and access to the lake provided hours of fun! Sue was extremely responsive and helpful as well. Would highly recommend for a large group!

Fall 40th Birthday Celebration
Keuka Kara was perfect for our group of 5 couples. We enjoyed having a bedroom and bathroom for each couple (with a few to spare!) The decor was the perfect mix of modern lake house. I want to renovate my own kitchen to match! The kitchen, dining and gathering space was great for sharing meals, playing games and the lake views were perfect. We enjoyed the local breweries, wine tasting and shops and restaurants In Hammondsport. Sue was very responsive when we had an issue with the heat and promptly helped us address the situation. It was a much needed weekend away and fun birthday celebration.
