Nice space !

Nice little guest house! Loved the patio as well and the large yard to walk the dog. It was pretty well stocked with most things that we needed for our two day get away. Just brought food and some other small necessities. Very close to areas to hike, and arbor hill winery.

Wonderful Xmas weekend!

We had a wonderful time enjoying family from out of town at this beautiful guest house! The apartment was very clean and comfortable! We had warm weather so we enjoyed a roaring camp fire every afternoon on the spacious patio. Thank for the memorable stay!

Gorgeous retreat

We had a perfect family weekend. All amenities are provided and the place is beyond beautiful!! We relaxed by the ponds and enjoyed coffee on the patio every morning. We explored Naples and had ice cream at Lynnie Lou's and did a short hike at Grimes Glen.

House with a private park

Thought I was renting a house to stay at. Turned out to be a house to stay at, with a beautiful, large private park in the backyard. Met Flame, a very friendly golden that played with our dog.

Great relaxing stay

We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. The house was equipped with everything we needed and more. The property is beautiful. My 2 small dogs roamed the very large property including the 3 ponds. We even fished in one of the ponds from the pier. The location was perfect. 6 mins from a launch for your boat or kayak. Also a short drive to restaurants, winieries and breweries. The host was very responsive prior to our trip and gave suggestions on what to do. Hope to return soon.

Delightful Spot

Though a bit out of the way for many Finger Lakes attractions, the guest house was a delight both inside and out. Spacious, clean, great patio perfect for star gazing. Yes, you have to drive a bit to get anywhere (30 minutes to Hammondsport, one hour to Watkins Glen) but who cares -- the scenery along the way makes the ride a pleasure. Just delightful.

Holidays

We enjoyed our stay in the Naples area! Beautiful village with many excellent restaurants and wineries. The property was clean and easily assembled. The property was decorative with beautiful antiques. Recommendations: new couch for sure and need places for 6 people to sit and enjoy. Cluttered with to many other furniture pieces and decorative decore.

Finger Lakes vacation

The entire experience was terrific. The property highlights were the double patio areas that could seat at least 12 complete with a Hot Shot fire pit, a real nice propane grill, plenty of acres to walk about. Access to the lake was basically a 5 minute drive to the boat launch that also has Kayak launch attached. If you like wine there are plenty of wine tasting spots to visit. Overall super and the property contact is great.

Beautiful and charming Getaway

My husband, 19 yr old daughter, Max the labradoodle & I stayed @ the cottage for 4 days. It was our first trip to the Finger Lake's area and we had a terrific time. The accomodations were excellent and the amenities went beyond the usual. Everything from bottled water, toiletries and even wood for outside fires was provided. The "personal touches" add a very family type feeling to the cottage.

Family fun!

Our family loved our second visit to the "Guest House" as much as our first. We spent hours at the ponds fishing. The kids enjoyed the new ping pong table. So much to do. Carolyn has added many thoughtful touches to this rental and it feels like home. We can't wait to return.

Beyond Beautiful

Jim's South Bristol Guest House was over & above anything we imagined. Manager was waiting for us to arrive; had a wonderful 'Monica's ' pie for us to enjoy. Our dogs were welcome, & house was well-stocked w/supplies we would need. House was so lovely & very homey. The property was just magnificent; the views, the grapes, ponds, crystal clear night sky - all were things I won't forget.

Cozy Spot near Lake Canandaigua

The expansive outdoor portion of the property, especially the back patio with the fire pit, makes this a 5-star stay. The actual house is clean and cozy, though well-lived in. The main bedroom is nice, but the pull-out couch is worn out. This is a good spot for a couple, or a couple with kids who can sleep in the twin bunk beds. The bathrooms are nice and clean, and the kitchen has al the amenities you could hope for, and then some (we loved the coffee selection!). Overall, a nice place to stay, especially during warmer months when you can enjoy the outside.

Charming and Relaxing Getaway to the Bristol Hills

This is truly a unique property with many natural treasures to enjoy. First of all, Carolyn and Mary are great hosts, and everything was spotlessly clean and working. If you love beautiful views of the Bristol Hills, birds, lots of outdoor space to explore, with no one around to interfere with your vacation, this is your place. The setting is unique, with the "house" built into a winery, but it is charming. Naples with its wineries and antiques and live theatre are 10 minutes away. And there is fishing on the property for the anglers. Our son loved swimming in the big pond, which is clean and clear. All in all, a great experience.

Wonderful place

We absolutely loved this place and highly recommend! We had lots of land and four ponds. We would walk around and enjoy the scenery. The house itself was amazing and just what we were looking for! Spacious and clean. There are plenty of appliances and items for cooking. They had seasonings etc. We cooked dinner there a few nights and had everything we needed to make our dinner. The owner was very good about getting back with us when we had questions. It is amazing. About 20 minutes from Canandaigua Lake, close to Wegmans and Walmart and other stores. I would highly recommend this place

Very Clean & Great Communication

We had a nice stay at this location. This is our second stay here. The place is VERY clean, which is important to us. Communicating with owner was easy and you can tell she cared. The location is set off the beaten path but very close to the ski resort we were visiting (Bristol). There were lots of towels and extra bedding and pillows. WiFi and cable worked well. No complaints. If I had to make a suggestion: a sign or address that points you to the entrance /door you're supposed to go in would be helpful. Thanks for a great stay!

This is a terrific property. It is immaculate, probably the cleanest place we have ever rented! Plus it is dog-friendly, yet you would never know that when you enter because it smells clean and fresh. All amenities are provided, even quiche and the famous "grape bread" from Monica's pies were in the freezer for us. We were able to have our two small dogs run around the property, which includes ponds and a very nice patio area. You can even park your car in the garage! Owners are very helpful! The photos are very accurate, in fact this place is even nicer in person. Definitely would recommend this rental and would stay there again when returning to the Finger Lakes region.

Thanksgiving Weekend

My husband, sons and I decided to enjoy our American Thanksgiving in the finger lakes region. We had been to a B&B in Canandaigua and really loved the region so thought this would be a nice, close getaway for the 4 of us (coming from Carlisle, Ontario). We looked at many properties and liked this one due to the acreage, reviews and overall cost. Carolyn from the outset was responsive and helpful and knowing that I was going to cook the family Turkey, immediately offered to provide a roasting pan large enough etc. We had an idyllic day for Thanksgiving and had everything we needed at the house to make our time special. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, the fishing ponds, the views to the Lake and the outdoor firepit. The house was very comfortable, warm and clean. We can highly recommend this as an good choice if you are coming to the finger lakes region.

The property was very comfortable. The host was fortunately easy to get ahold of since we accidentally locked ourselves out without our key! For anyone who stays, make sure you keep key with you. The bed was very comfortable. The property was beautiful.
