Perfect location! Feels Like Home!

The Carriage House sits on a beautiful property with a back balcony porch overlooking. The hosts were excellent; easy communication. When the power went out briefly due to a storm, they immediately brought over extra flashlights and even a multiple phone charger pack. A nice easy walk into town. Great stay!

Lovely Carriage house

We had a great stay at the Carriage house beginning with easy check in and instructions from with our host. This cozy, comfortable house sits on a beautiful private backyard with fantastic trees and views. The location is perfect for walking to town and restaurants. A nice deck area makes for a peaceful place to unwind at the end of the day. We would definitely like to return.

Perfect Space for a family

My husband, our 3 little kids, and my mother in law stayed here for the weekend of the eclipse. The carriage house was the perfect little space for us, with everything you could need to be comfortable. The hosts were super nice, very considerate, and provided an awesome personal guide to the town. The back yard and outside area were great for the kids, and the books and toys available were an amazing help. Thanks, Kate and Sebastian! We loved our stay!

Cozy spot

We liked the way the carriage house was set back from the road a bit and had a nice view of fields to the back. The place was just the right size for the 2 of us and our 2 cats. Winter would not have been the time we would have chosen to stay here, but we needed someplace to stay while having wood floors refinished at home. It was an easy walk to the village and to restaurants and shops. Kate was very helpful and patient as we tried to plan and schedule our stay and very responsive to any requests.....a very gracious host. We appreciated being able to adjust the temperature so that we could cool things down for easier sleeping at night. The kitchen was easy to use and had all the basic cooking items we needed. All in all a pleasant stay.

Quick Spring Break Getaway

We wanted to get away for a couple of days for Spring Break somewhere close and new to us. The Carriage House was the perfect home base as we explored Skaneatles. Kate was incredibly responsive and provided helpful info about the area. The property was comfortable and well appointed. We felt at home and the location couldn't have been better - close to everything!

Comfortable, clean, and well appointed carriage house within walking distance to the lake, shops, and restaurants. Quiet location as the carriage house is located at the back of the property with a nice happy hour porch overlooking a large yard, which our dog enjoyed.
