This place was everything that it said it was and more. Hostess was great to work with, the place was exactly as the pictures and the convenience to all the hiking and wineries was perfect. In addition to that the town of Ovid was very quaint and had the best diner and Italian restaurant. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
The house was great and cozy. Very friendly people who own the house! Loved that it was a church. We are looking forward to staying again sometime in the spring!
Beautiful accomodations in a converted church in a quiet, rural location.
Cozy apartment with charming quirks, eg. kitchen is the former choir loft. Plenty of outdoor space for star-gazing. It’s situated close to lakes, waterfalls, gorges, wineries, and farmland- a little piece of heaven in the Finger Lakes Region!
We stayed 4 nights while hiking and hitting the wineries and cider houses. It was nice, cute and well stocked. For us, it was pretty much centralized to all of our activities but there isn't anything within walking distance but a short drive to town for pizza or the grocery store.

Great stay
This quaint apartment is perfectly located between Cayuga and Seneca Lakes giving to easy access to both wine trails. The apartment itself is well appointed, neat and clean. The hosts are wonderful people and very responsive to any communications. We would not hesitate to book with them again should our travels bring us back to the area!
Very nice apartment in quiet rural setting. Clean, spacious, well equipped, and comfortable. Perfect for the few days we visited to explore the wineries, breweries, parks, hiking, and of course the beautiful lakes. We also got a preview of the fall colors!
The host was great and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.
The property was just as described and very clean. It was perfect for my husband and I who were looking to just take it easy and relax. The area is very quite and we hardly heard any traffic at all - twice there was an Amish horse and buggy going by but we only saw that because we were outside at the time. Enjoyed finding out the history of the church and were amazed at how they have fixed it into living spaces. We would definitely enjoy staying again if we are up in the Finger Lakes area!

The unit was clean, well appointed and the host was wonderful. She get us at the property-even with a variable arrival time due to distance-and explained the history of the unit. The location was great-we were able to travel to two different state parks with ease, as well as a couple different wineries.
Comfortable, cozy and clean. A great location to explore Cayuga and Seneca Lakes, the wineries, swimming and hiking at Robert Treman Park, Taughannock and Buttermilk Falls. Debbie and David were wonderful hosts.
