Family Gathering
My two siblings, their spouses and 4 children, our parents, and my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this beautifully decorated and spacious home. Breakfasts at the big kitchen table, cookouts on the back patio, lawn games in the back yard, and kids' after-dinner theatrical performances with the front porch as a candlelit stage made for a rare and memorable whole-family gathering. The beds were amazing, everyone was very comfortable and able to get their own space when desired. And I loved the artistic touches. To bicycle, we put the bikes on the car and found some desolate country farm roads not far away. To swim in the lake, we headed to a few different parks. The NY State Parks free parking card was greatly appreciated, and we saw every waterfall in the area! We had a fun daytrip to Ithaca (for lunch at Moosewood and used book and record shopping), especially enjoyed the gorgeous Forge and Damiani wineries, the Hideaway, as well as Two Goats for beer. The views from all of these spots are absolutely breathtaking. Thank you Nicole & Jonathan!

Gathering Hill the Perfect Place to Gather
The pictures don’t disappoint. This is a large beautiful antique home. Just bring your suitcase. All the amenities are here and then some. We stayed the whole month of August. The upstairs bedrooms are air conditioned. When the weather turned unseasonably hot, it took one text message and the owner was there with 2 air conditioners for the first floor. The whole house was instantly cool. We enjoyed this home inside and out, celebrated 2 birthdays, enjoyed s’mores around the fire pit, used the grill, played games in the grass. The area offers so much for all ages and we took advantage of it all. Nicole and Jonathan are the perfect hosts.

Big Chill vibe
It was a racing trip, driver and his family, me...the sponsor and one of my associates. House is historic and lovely. Everything was just right for our group. We hung in the kitchen and breakfast area with ALEXA playing the music from the Big Chill.

Perfect house for relaxing by the lake
Beautiful and cozy farmhouse, just as pictured. Walking distance to a few wineries and breweries which was very convenient. Gorgeous views of the lake! Plenty of seating for our party of 12 indoor and out. Mattresses were extremely comfortable, and furniture was well kept, and everything was in working order. The house has it all from a fully stocked kitchen to condiments, oils, etc. which were available for our use, plenty of extra pillows, blankets and towels, and bathrooms fully stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We loved the fire pit, outdoor dining area, front porch, small porch dining area, and the well kept lawn and gardens where we did morning yoga. Our only minor complaint was some little things and dust in some areas throughout the house and under beds when we arrived, so we ended up picking up a bit and cleaning the inside of a few kitchen drawers. Otherwise we had a perfect stay and would definitely stay again!

Amazing
This was the perfect property for our large family. Everything we needed and more was supplied. The house was spotless and the grounds well manicured. The rooms are plentiful and large. The location is perfect for exploring Senaca and Cayuga lake areas. As I said,.....perfect.
