Richard went beyond any expectations and provided assistance with some unexpected issues with our car. He is most knowledgeable of local resources and went out if this way to help. Thank you! We could not have navigated without his assistance and he “saved” a needed vacation!

Amazing sunsets!

This property had everything we needed for a relaxing lake vacation. The cottage was spacious, the furnishings were comfortable, and the kitchen had all the essentials. The living room and large deck are facing west, providing the best sunset view every evening. The neighborhood was quiet yet close to activities in the town of Auburn. The dock was great for fishing and having kayaks available was a bonus. Rick’s hospitality is amazing! I would love to stay here again!

Breathtaking Retreat on Owasco Lake

Our recent stay at this Vrbo lake house on Owasco Lake was truly exceptional! The host's warm hospitality and attention to detail made our experience unforgettable. The tastefully furnished interior and breathtaking lake views created a perfect ambiance. The lake house itself was a masterpiece of comfort and elegance. The tastefully furnished interior blended seamlessly with the breathtaking views of Owasco Lake, creating an ambiance of pure relaxation. The open-concept living space allowed for effortless interaction among family and friends. The bedrooms were cozy and offered picturesque vistas. The deck and dock provided stunning panoramas and opportunities for water sports. The nearby towns and attractions added extra excitement. Owasco Lake's proximity to wineries, hiking trails, and daily treats at nearby Tom Thumb and Seb’s added an extra layer of excitement to our stay, ensuring there was always something new to explore. We highly recommend this lake house for a remarkable getaway!

Perfect Getaway

I had the pleasure of staying at this lakefront cottage recently, and it was an absolute delight. The location was serene and picturesque, with the cottage nestled right by the tranquil waters of the lake. The view from the cottage was simply breathtaking, offering stunning sunsets and a sense of serenity. The cottage itself was charming and cozy, providing all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The interior was tastefully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The beds were comfortable, and the living area was perfect for relaxation and unwinding. One of the highlights was the private dock, which allowed easy access to the lake. We spent hours swimming, fishing, and simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The outdoor space was large, with a lovely deck and barbecue area that were ideal for enjoying meals while taking in the beauty of the lake. The owners of the cottage were friendly and attentive, ensuring that our stay was pleasant and memorable. Their hospitality added an extra layer of comfort to our experience. Overall, my time at the lakefront cottage was nothing short of amazing. It provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, allowing me to reconnect with nature and recharge my batteries. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat by the water.

On a positive note, the wall of living room windows gave a wonderful view of the lake. The home was clean and comfortable. The one issue we had was that the 2nd bathroom was also down stairs. Because we are in our 70's, we could not use the upstairs, so my sister slept on the couch all week. The back deck and stairs have no outdoor lighting, making it difficult to navigate the stairs after dark. If these issues are addressed in the future, this would probably receive a higher rating

Stunning Lake House

Our stay at Seven Oaks was the highlight of our trip! The cottage sits perched over Lake Owasco. We sat and watched as a storm moved across the lake one night and we also sat and watched the sun set many nights. The home is more beautiful than photos can capture. It has everything you need, including a library if one should finish or forget their book! There are so many places to sit and enjoy the outside. The lake was beautiful. Don't forget your water shoes as it is rocky on the bottom and not for the soft soled!The owners were wonderful, always responsive and communicative. We love the local ice cream store, Tom Thumb. You indulge on deliciously large servings of ice cream while seated outside with a panoramic view of the lake. It is a simple 5 minute drive from the house. We would return in a heartbeat and were sad to say good-bye to this vacation retreat. Thank you for making a special place to escape to!

We were so happy with this property we reserved it for June. The owner could not have been more accommodating and responsive. The view of the lake was gorgeous and the furniture was so comfy we hated to leave the living room. The neighborhood is upscale and quiet-perfect for walking our dog often.

Fantastic 2 Weeks @ Seven Oaks

The cottage served our needs perfectly. The accomodations were comfortable and clean. Sunsets and moon rises were stunning. Evening campfires by the lake were magical. We enjoyed hosting family and friends during our stay. Rick, the host, checked in on us periodically by text message. He picked up the trash and recyclables every few days. We highly recommend this property and hope to return. Rick
