About this cottage rental
Built in 1920, this vintage Cottage-on-the Lake features a large lakeside porch with spectacular views. It provides comfortable seating for 12-14 to enjoy meals, sunsets, or just relax with coffee or a glass of wine. The dining room is a great place to gather for a meal, board games or cards. The flat screen television in the living room has DirecTV service and a DVD player. The screened back porch is a comfy spot to read or watch the bocce players go at it. A well-stocked kitchen has an abundance of dishes, utensils, pots, pans, etc. as well as the standard amenities: refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, stove, dishwasher, disposal, and microwave. The laundry room has a full-size washer and dryer.
The upstairs bedrooms include 2 family suites, a private double bedroom and a lake view double bedroom. Each family suite has a lakeside queen bed with an adjoining room, separated by double doors, that has a double bed in one and a queen in the other. The master family suite has a full bathroom attached. There is another full bath upstairs off the hallway. On the first floor there is a single bedroom and nearby half bathroom. The cottage sleeps 14 if all beds are full. The cottage is not air-conditioned but the lake and shade usually keep the temperatures in the comfortable range. Several fans are provided if needed.
The cottage sits on a huge grassy lot with many large trees and shrubs. There is an abundance of play space and room to breathe!
The lake-level patio with tables and umbrellas is great for sunbathing or sitting in the shade while watching people swim. Fishing off the dock can be a fun way to enjoy the lake. A buoy is provided to anchor your boat.
Parking available for five cars.

The pride of ownership in this cottage is apparent. Everything was clean, charming, and if Tom didn’t have it we didn’t need it. We had 3 families here, with kids, and had the best time! Plenty of space and Tom was incredible. We just can’t speak to the TV situation because we never turned it on the week we were there. Excellent grounds and location. 5 stars!!

Great place to stay with my adult children and parents. The view of the lake from the cottage is magnificent and we spent a lot of time on the screened-in front area of the cottage just looking at the lake and sipping coffee. We appreciated this older cottage that has been updated yet stayed true to the original character of the era. Not so easy to find this on Canandaigua any more!
The kitchen was well supplied. Plenty of dishes and silverware for our group of 9 people.
Tom was exceedingly accommodating with any questions, but especially in figuring out logistics to moor our boat out front. There was no problem, and he had a dinghy available, if we had needed it. It was easy enough to swim out to the boat (or we used one of our kayaks)
The swimming area was nice. Bring water shoes because there are a lot of zebra mussels in the lake.
The only challenge for my parents was the steepness of the steps to the water. Once down at water level, though, they enjoyed that area, with nice shade provided by umbrellas over two tables, as well as plenty of other seating.
The kids loved the converted boat house to hang out and there was a nice assortment of water toys (we really didn't need to bring as much as we did).
I would highly recommend staying here.

This property is an older home that has been maintained beautifully. It is extremely well stocked with most things you will need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay and for entertaining the family. The hosts were outstanding and shared all the information we required for our stay. We had a perfect vacation.

From the moment Carol and Tom greeted us, we knew that we had found a wonderful vacation situation. They couldn't have been more welcoming or gracious in providing everything we needed or in anticipating our needs. The cottage is spacious and comfortable. We most loved the screened in front porch where we did most of our hanging out. The big dining table was perfect for the 8 of us and could easily accommodate more. We loved sitting there enjoying our meals, especially dinner as the sun is setting. (The Vecchis were kind enough to provide a couple of temporary shades as the solar shades on order had not arrived in time for our visit). A surprise was that the kitchen was extraordinarily well equipped with things normally forgotten in rentals such as salad spinners, sieves, cheese graters, juice squeezers. etc. We are a family of cooks so that meant a lot to us. The property also is very quiet, a big plus for us. We look forward to a return.
