We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect. It was close to everything for our needs. Outside was beautiful with all the blooming plants & flowers. Inside was very comfortable & appointed well. The back deck was amazing and the pond & trees were beautiful this time of year; we enjoyed drinking our coffee on the deck. Between the acorns and chipmunks, we stayed entertained. Vera's responses were very quick. We look forward to staying again. Thanks so much! Terry R

We spent 4 days visiting family in the area. The house was spacious and spotlessly clean with a beautiful view of Leland Pond. We enjoyed the quiet woodland setting. Communicating with Vera and checking in were super easy. We will definitely stay there again.

Love this Lake Cottage

This place is perfect. We have stayed a couple times while visiting our Colgate student. I only regret that it was already booked for many of our visits. It is right on Leland Pond and has everything you could possibly need- including Kayaks and SUPS and the little lake is so pretty. Waking up to the water views are magical. The place is pristine and the Host is incredibly responsive and so kind and helpful. You will not regret staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Vera Kuss

Host profile image
I have lived in this area my entire life and love the many lakes and rolling hills. I finally realized one of my dreams of owning a cottage on a lake! I couldn't have found a more perfect fit at Leland Pond. I have three daughters and one granddaughter who will be enjoying the cottage occasionally. Travelers needing a quiet, clean home away from home can rent for 2 days or a week!

Why they chose this property

Super convenient and easy to service and maintain!

What makes this property unique

Close to Colgate University, Hamilton College and Morrisville College ! Close to great mall in Utica or Syracuse ! Close to awesome waterpark in Old Forge, NY !
Leland Pond is quiet and clean yet close to many amenities!
