About this property

Country setting nestled in the Finger Lakes.

Quaint, Rustic and Charming describe our little piece of heaven we call the Bungalow. The Bungalow while built in the 1700 's is updated and set on 3.5 acres in the country. You will have the feeling of being off the grid.
Close to all the Finger Lakes has to offers; 20 minute drive to 3 different lakes, 25 minutes to downhill and cross country skiing, hiking trails, vineyards and Craft breweries. Within walking distance is the largest Alpaca Farm in the northeast with farm tours daily. Just across the street to Scottish Highlander's the Gentile Giant bovine.

Wonderful Relaxing Location

Thoroughly enjoyed the cottage. Mark, the owner, was very pleasant and the Alpaca farm was beautiful. Perfect place for us to stay and visit our niece. Super quiet with lots of birds in the back wooded area. Accommodating pets was really appreciated and our dog loved it as well. I highly recommend it and will stay there again one day.

Beautiful and charming location

The property was as described. It was super clean and cozy. We had everything we needed and it accommodated our group of 6 comfortably. The alpaca farm is a nice feature and our girls loved visiting and feeding the animals. Our hosts were very responsive and helpful and provided everything we needed. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it.

Exactly what we needed!

The bungalow was exactly what we needed...something secluded within the areas we wanted to explore. Niagra Falls and Watkins Glenn state park are a must. Mark was great, super nice! He gave us a tour of his alpaca farm, Lazy Acres was beautiful.

Great stopover in the Finger Lakes

The house is great, bed comfy and love that it is across street from a fun Alpaca farm that we toured (and purchased a few early Christmas presents!). The owners left a light and the AC on so comfortable from the start! Also this is a good spot to use when touring around Canandaigua and Honeoye Falls. And sitting on deck saw a couple deer in the backyard’

The Bungalow

We stayed a couple nights at the Bungalow, and enjoyed a nice quiet time. The two hundred year-old place has a lot of charm and quaintness and being in the Finger Lakes region is a real plus—there is so much to see and do. Mark, the host, was quite congenial. He showed us around his Alpaca farm which was interesting and informative. Mark also pointed out the top attractions in the region and even marked a map for us to help with navigation.

Cozy country bungalow

Quaint bungalow in a beautiful country setting. We stayed 2 nights and were gone most of the day for graduation celebrations at RIT. We didnt use any of the kitchen appliances other than refrigerator but had everything you would need. I would recommend for a small group as the 2 full beds were in the same room upstairs. We did not use the futon. Beds were very comfortable. Lovely deck for relaxing. Make sure you visit the alpaca farm , it was delightful!

Great for a quiet stay

This is a lovely little saltbox cabin in a rural setting close to several points of interest. The tin roof was a wonderful addition on our rainy weekend, and the critters seem to like it too as they scurried over it in the early morning hours. The backyard terrain was not amenable to older folks and dogs especially when wet but there are wonderful country roads to explore and get that morning walk in. My dog loved the cows, alpacas, and chickens he met on our walks. Very few staples in the pantry, and a decent grocery store is 30 mins away so keep that in mind as you come in for that first night.

The place was nice. The owners were very friendly and responsive. The cabin is rustic and set in the woods / country. It met our needs just fine, but you do have to remember where you are- This is a secluded cabin on an Alpaca farm in the woods. There will be flies/bugs, etc. Pack some bug spray and get out and enjoy the beautiful country setting! The cabin itself is tastefully decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked and the beds were comfortable!

Lovely Getaway

Our family of 5 plus a pup really enjoyed our stay at the Bungalow. It had plenty of amenities, we were pleasantly surprised at the kitchen stocked with dishes, appliances, cookware, and more! Our littles enjoyed their comfortable beds while mom and dad were comfortable on the pull out sofa bed. The Bungalow was quaint, charming, and a wonderful place for our family to stay for a few days while we house hunted. Mark and Sharon were great at communicating and accommodating our family on short notice. Our children are still raving about the cozy Bungalow. We will definitely keep it in mind the next time we need a weekend away!

WELCOME

Why they chose this property

WELCOME
This property was purchased in the year 2000 and was part of 230 acre farm now known as Lazy Acre Alpacas. This house was built in the 1700's and has been part of our family housing our children during their college years and later my son living during his first years of marriage.. We rented it out for a few years later. After a devastating fire at our home at the farm. Sharon and I lived in the Bungalow for 13 months while our new home was being constructed .The we decided to update the interior replacing the stairs to the upstairs sleeping area . We raised the roof so that we had head room to be able to walk around.upstairs .The renovations turned out so nice we decided to share it with our VRBO guest.

What makes this property unique

Besides the bungalow and the property being such a unique piece of heaven .LOCATION ,LOCATION, LOCATION is what it's all about. you name it hiking , biking , skiing (winter and summer) , craft beer , wine tasting , shopping , museums , water falls , grand canyon of the east , festivals , concerts , gardens , and lots of great food .
