A perfect place for our fall escape to the lake. It was amazing to wake up and see the fog across the lake and we even had some geese and ducks come by while we were there. The house had everything we needed. The owner was doing work on one of the bathrooms but with it just being 5 of us, we were able to make do with the two bathrooms. House was conveniently located to the Institute and only a 10min drive to Wegmans. I am sure this would be a great rental during the summer given the access to the lake.

Perfect family getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay here! My family and I stayed here on our first vacation with everyone in years and Susan's place was the perfect backdrop. The location is wonderful -- quiet and on a lovely street off the main road. The large backyard, dock, deck, etc made our time there very special. It was our first visit to Chautauqua but certainly won't be our last. Susan was extremely helpful throughout our entire booking process + stay. Also, we LOVED Steadman Corners Cafe and ate there multiple times. Great place to go explore or just stay in and relax :)

Clean and Comfortable Stay

The house is very comfortable and clean with a very responsive and friendly owner who was accommodating to a larger group with small children. The house has an open living area with a beautifully updated kitchen. Big deck outside with a decently sized yard with plenty of shady trees. Everyone in our party had a very enjoyable time and the owner couldn’t have been more helpful and friendlier. Great location, within 10 minutes of a grocery store and many local sites. The house was equipped with everything we needed for the weekend.

Great Location!

This home is in a wonderful neighborhood and location. It is 1 mile from the main gate of Chautauqua Institution and only a few miles to Mayville and Bemus Point. The home is very large and the layout is very appealing. The deck, grill, and dock were used heavily. The home is overdue on some needed updates (bathrooms, kitchen, etc.), more than is indicated in the listing. Overall, we had a great time and working with Susan was flawless.

We had a wonderful time at Susan’s place. We had beautiful views of the lake and the neighborhood was so beautiful for our daily walks. Location was great. The guys played golf . We toured a mansion in Westfield just a 15 minute drive from Susan’s place. Had lunch at a cute spot on the water also. Susan was a great host and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. Thanks again Susan . We had a wonderful time. Diane

Relaxing Family Vacation

Our vacation at Chautauqua was very enjoyable. The location is great - quiet street where the grandchildren were safe to bike and scooter as well as a large yard to accommodate their play. Fishing at the end of the dock was great for my grandson and his father. We brought our boat, the launch was convenient at the end of the road and the dock worked out great. The open floorplan made it easy for the whole family to be together. There were beautiful views from all of the rooms and they made perfect backdrops for our annual family pictures. The family also enjoyed midway, putt putt and the Institution. Susan was very responsive from the planning stage through our entire visit. Thank you for sharing your home! Hope to visit again next year.

Susan is an awesome host making sure we were happy with everything with personal texts The house was warm and inviting Great Lake views from the rooms bright and open. We had a pretty spectacular lighting storm that we were able to watch inside from the large windowed room. Amazing. We did have a few rainy days but kept busy driving around the towns. It really is like Mayberry there. Great walking on Manor drive and great neighbors. The gentleman across the street brought us extra firewood. Bemus boys boat rental was the best. Overall I would say that the area The property and Susan are the best

Annual visit to the lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! Beautiful location and neighborhood. The accommodations were great and we had plenty of space for our entire family of 8 (seven adults and one grand child). The neighborhood was wonderful for walking, biking and trekking through the new nature trail (a big hit with our grandson!). The boat launch worked perfectly and so convenient right in the neighborhood. The outdoor space at the house is incredible. Fires in the evening were a highlight with star-filled skies and some shooting stars were an added bonus. The fishing from the end of the dock was great for us and the opportunity to have our boat right at the house with us made things very convenient. We would highly recommend this rental. The home owner was a delight to work with and was very attentive to our needs. Many thanks for a week filled with many new lake memories for our family!

Long time property owner and Chautauqua Institution supporter. Spent over 30 summers here at this house with my 4 children. Location can't be beat!

What makes this property unique

Stellar view of the Bell Tower, magnificent large maple trees, easy to swim from the dock. Friendly neighbors! House has glass doors opening to lake front deck and large windows for great views. Open layout and new kitchen with top of line appliances is terrific for entertaining.
