Host is nice. Property not work the price. It looked like the host moved out for 2 days while we stayed. All drawers filled, personal info out. Also, the house is falling apart. I sat on the bench. It broke. I am 145lbs. Plus the house art work takes an extreme acquired taste..

Great place to stay with kids. Central location.

Loved our stay. The house was a cool layout and had an amazing property. Great home if you have kids as they had a lot of toys and a great bed for a toddler. The location was really good too. Very close to a lot of places we needed to go.

The property grounds were amazing, and the master bedroom was impeccable (heated flooring, jacuzzi and completely satisfied my personal delight for strong shower pressure)!!! The soulful artwork was an added bonus. Host is great communicator, so ask away and she will deliver—host went out of her way to accommodate our needs for our 50th birthday dinner. Will definitely rent again!

My family and I stayed here for a weekend to enjoy Niagara Falls and a Bills game. The property was stunning, very large spacious home. Beautiful views everywhere you look. Walking to the ponds in the morning was a great experience. Definitely will look to rebook next year!

Orchard Park Forest Retreat

We traveled back home to spend time with family for the holiday. Our host graciously allowed us to celebrate Thanksgiving with our family at the property and all loved their time there. It is a great house, with fantastic architecture and appointments. Everything was exactly as advertised and if we need a large space in Western New York again, we will certainly look this place up again!

Outside deck area appears in need of repair; a little tlc of that area(trim bushes hanging over deck). Location was fantastic in relationship to Highmark Stadium; but living area not conducive to a larger group wishing to spent time together.

Do not stay here. This property was filthy, cluttered, and unsafe from the moment we walked in — nothing like the listing.We found live maggots infesting the pots and pans in the kitchen as we were trying to make breakfast. The HVAC vents were caked in dust and hair, so we were breathing that in the entire week. One of the toilets was overflowing straight from the tank and flooding the floor, completely unusable. An entire section of the house was so musty and mold-prone that we had to seal it off with the doors shut just to keep the smell from taking over the rest of the home — we lost half the space we paid for.The house was also packed wall-to-wall with the owner's own belongings — no closet, under counter space, or drawer in the master bedroom was actually available for our things. On top of that, it clearly hadn't been prepped for us: used bars of soap in the showers, their laundry left abandoned in the dryer, their dishes still in the dishwasher, and a freezer so stuffed with the owner's food we couldn't fit anything of our own. Then there's the safety issues. The deck and porch had holes in them, and we had kids staying with us. The hot tub was broken and left unsecured — a real hazard with young children around. Dust and grime covered every surface. The windows were so dirty you couldn't see outside. Our kids couldn't even play on the floor, it was that filthy. This was one of the most unsanitary and poorly maintained rentals we’ve ever stayed at.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. We take cleanliness, maintenance, and guest safety very seriously. During your stay, whenever concerns were brought to our attention, we responded promptly by arranging for our cleaning team to return to the property and address the issues that were reported. We remained in communication throughout your stay and made every effort to resolve concerns as quickly as possible. You chose to continue your entire stay for seven additional nights while these matters were all addressed. Many of the statements in this review do not accurately reflect the condition of the property or our communications during your reservation. Our home is a privately owned vacation property, and while certain owner items are stored on-site as disclosed in the listing, guests have ample space throughout the home for their belongings. We continuously inspect and maintain the property, and after your departure we again reviewed the home and addressed any items requiring attention to ensure it meets the high standards our future guests expect. We encourage prospective guests to consider our long history of positive reviews, which consistently reflect our commitment to providing a clean, comfortable, and enjoyable stay. We appreciate all guest feedback, as it helps us continue improving the experience for everyone who visits.

Perfect for family reunion

Reunion with our children and grandchildren, four families from four states, to attend a celebration for the life of my husband’s late brother. Nestled between two sets of family homes, it was perfect. Large property with a playground allowed the 4,5,6,7,8 year olds to play ball and other games, visit the ponds with an adult, and be kids. Plenty of rooms and bathrooms to accommodate the 12 of us, dine together, play family board games, watch tv, just enjoy each other. We could also do mini meet ups with some of the family that came to Orchard Park from several other states. We did have to clean and arrange the outdoor furniture and forego making s’mores because of a bee issue in the firepit. Having shared those issues and one other with the owner, I expect that she will address those things for future guests. We all appreciated the opportunity to stay in this home.

thank you so much for the feedback. we did address the bee issue and we did clean off and bring in all the outdoor cushions to keep them from weathering outside. guests are welcome to bring them out but, sometimes, guests leave them out even in the rain. we appreciate you bringing this to our attention!

Perfect woodland hideaway. Like an artist’s retreat!

This home is amazing. The property is incredible. The artwork and decor are worthwhile themselves! The indoors was pristine. Four rather than five because the decks and exterior really needed to be swept and have webs knocked down. But we were there pre-memorial day. Don’t expect to be able to unpack, the owner’s things fill all the space. But that means you’re also getting a super comfy and well-equipped home. I could live there! I love the property. I deducted a star simply because it’s not near anything. So come here if you want to be in nature, not for convenience. Definitely a car dependent location. I woke every morning to watching bees flit in the purple Rhodies blooming just outside the bedroom window. Very soulful space. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for the review. We had the decks cleaned and cleared for the summer just after your stay. We also had our landscapers come through to make the grounds even more enjoyable. We are only 15-20 minutes from the city of Buffalo and less than 10 minutes to area beaches, major grocers, restaurants, etc. we wish that you had asked us for recommendations, we have plenty. The area really is convenient to a lot even though it feels secluded and tucked away.

Mixed Bag

Large house with lots of interesting decor and plenty of areas to spread out. Pretty grounds and walking paths to/from the ponds. Comfortable beds and plenty of kitchen space to prepare meals. Plenty of restaurants with friendly locals and good food/beer. On the downside- 1. Cleanliness could be improved (sheets on 1 bed dirty, food debris on floors in other rooms 2. Kitchen extremely disorganized 3. Had to unload dishwasher 4. Some dishes/utensils in cabinets were dirty with crusted food 5. Upstairs bathroom did not offer toiletries 6. No tissues offered in home 7. Used plastic cups with liquid in them on table at deck 8. Clear indication that a family lives in this house, vacates when rented out (priority UPS packages delivered to house during our stay) 9. Listing stated check out at 11 but property manager messaged us an earlier time frame on day of check out, asking when we were vacating premises 10. While our family was packing up the morning of check out, our family member was startled with noises in garage and found a man riffling through garage items before our check out time. This list may portray us as complainers however we are not of that caliber. For the rental price of this home the basics of a proper house hosting should be priority.

The home itself was beautiful, spacious, and matched the photos well, making it a great setting for our wedding weekend. However, it felt much more like staying in someone’s actively lived-in primary residence than a typical vacation rental. Closets, counters, and cupboards were very full of personal belongings, and the space felt cluttered. The floors also did not seem thoroughly cleaned, as our socks became dirty quickly indoors. Many aspects of the primary bathroom were beautiful and unique. The heated floors, toilet, bidet, and waterfall shower were great. Unfortunately, we could not use the jacuzzi tub as it had dust and debris in the bottom. It did not look clean or regularly maintained and we did not feel comfortable using it. All beds were very comfortable and the family friendly aspects were awesome for my niece. Overall we enjoyed the property, but future guests should know to expect a more lived-in feel than a standard rental.
