Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Penn Yan

Staying at Mara's house was exactly what we needed to welcome in 2025. The house itself is immaculate, well appointed, comfortable and has incredible lakefront views to tie it all together. Getting around the Cayuga Lake area was so easy from where the house is located and there are even some incredible wineries and breweries minutes away. The layout and setup of the house was very thoughtfully done and everything we needed (and more) was there. 10/10 excellent stay.

My family had a great staycation! We spent the day at Bristol Mountain and went in to Canandaigua for dinner. The view of the lake was stunning, mixed with a perfect snowfall. Plenty of hot water for warm showers after the slopes. The kitchen/living/dining area was open, cozy and provided those beautiful views. I even think the living room floor was heated! We all slept well with comfy beds and space for all. Would definitely recommend!

My family of seven stayed here for a week and had a wonderful time! There was ample room for the kids to play, for us all to relax, and to cook and have meals together. The playroom was a big hit - there were a ton of board games, toys, and puzzles to play with. The kids had a lot of fun playing fooseball. The beds were very comfortable, as were the pillows. It was so nice having laundry on the 2nd floor, too, as well as a bathtub for the kiddos! The amenities were endless - there wasn't anything else needed that wasn't already provided. We were hoping for more snow (coming from Florida) - we had just missed a snowstorm and the temps were 40s/50s for half of our stay, but Grace recommended a few places for us to try in town, or within an hour, or two. She was easy to communicate with and very friendly - definitely a place we would stay again if we ever visited the area in the future!

Everything was just perfect! That's why we've stayed now three years in a row! And hopefully, we'll be back next year.

Judy was amazing to work with. We had to switch airbnbs and she was very accommodating of our last minute need. Very responsive, willing to fix any issues, and very friendly. The place was a gorgeous escape for us and we loved the space. We would definitely stay there again!

An excellent stay and I would recommend it to anyone heading to the Corning museum of glass or Watkins Glen, we happened to do both! Barb was very responsive and made sure all of our needs were met. This very cozy house was perfect for our weekend trip!

This was our second stay, and it was just as wonderful as the first. We hope to stay here again on our next visit!

It was a good value for our Holiday weekend.

We stayed at Christopher's while exploring the Fingerlakes region in the wintertime. It was warm and comfortable to come back to in the evening. I was easily able to make dinner with the kitchenware provided. Would definitely stay there if we are in the area again. The only thing I would mention is the WIFI connection seemed to be a little weak sometimes (we were able to stream a movie by keeping the phone in the kitchen and casting to the TV). Other than that, everything was great!

It was a perfect place to stay for our mother & daughter weekend exploring Watkins Glenn and surrounding area(waterfalls, hiking, wineries, breweries, lakes).Can easily walk into town to shops, restaurants and WG state park. Apartment is fully stocked with all needed for our stay. It is a super cozy, comfortable & clean. Host is very helpful & responsive. It was a perfect fall getaway. Hope to return in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Don's Airbnb, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish! Don went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Communication with Don was seamless. He was quick to respond to any questions i had and provided recommendation to local restaurants, spas, museums etc.

Glenn and Diana’s place is a must stay!!!! The space was so cozy, clean, and comfortable. The sunsets over the lake are enchanting, and stargazing at night is incredible. Additionally, Glenn and Diana provided great recommendations for wineries, breweries, food, and activities in the area.

This space was PERFECT for our little anniversary getaway in the finger lakes! Ron was very responsive and we loved all of the treats he supplied the house with. We can wait to come back during the summer! Thank you, Ron!

We visited Ithaca for my daughter's Cornell Family Weekend. Had great time during our stay. The apartment is super clean and comfortable - the nice details everywhere makes it feel just like home. Mary is very friendly and responsive - the best host one can ask for. We will certainly come back again.

We were thoroughly impressed with Linda's place. Everything about it was perfect. Exceptionally clean, fully stocked with everything you could need in the kitchen, bathroom, living room, laundry room, etc. You literally do not need to bring a single thing with you to Linda's place. Whenever I had a question about something during our visit, I would just send Linda a message through airbnb and she would immediately respond. We stayed here for the purpose of skiing at Bristol and it is an easy 15 minute ride to the slopes. We literally don't have one negative thing to say about Linda's place. We would book this airbnb over and over again....in fact, we did....for another weekend later this season! Thank you Linda and Mark for providing such a nice place for a ski weekend getaway.

We had a wonderful two night stay. The apartment was easy to find, very clean and exactly as described. We were able to walk to pubs, Seward museum and Wegman's grocery store. It is in a very safe and beautiful area We will stay there again when we are in Auburn.

The cabin was spotless, in a great, peaceful spot while still being close by to plenty of wineries and breweries. It like you were very secluded, out of the busy town, but only a 5 minute drive from some of the best wineries/ restaurants around. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a weekend getaway!

This place turned out to be exactly what we were looking for and needed! A cozy cabin with plenty of space for three people to spread out (and easily room for a few more) for a calm winter getaway. We made almost all our meals there throughout the week, and the kitchen has about everything one would need. Bathroom is nice, new shower appreciated as well as the heated tile floor. Bedroom and beds upstairs feel new and the mattresses are quite firm, so a great nights sleep for us. The propane fireplace was perfect! both ambient & effective The property is massive and the trails made for nice little daily adventures. Snow on the ground and the pond was frozen, so we got a couple days of ice time before rising temps made it a bit too wet. Feels very remote on-property, especially at night, but there are a couple cute towns 20 minutes east or west. Leila diner and Naples pizza highlights. The owner, Felicia, is very responsive and nice to interact with. We hope to be back someday!

This cabin was a great and beautiful time, in a very nice town. Very private and the host is easy to contact with clear instructions. Definitely recommend and hope return another time!

We loved this place! It was quiet, peaceful, and cozy. Was just what we were looking for with the wood stove. It was easy to use, kept the place very warm. Had everything we needed to cook meals and just stay in and enjoy a relaxing weekend. Comfortable bed, everything was great, would love to stay again!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this cabin! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the spotless cleanliness—every corner was meticulously maintained, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. The cabin's location is unbeatable, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, and the walking access to the lake was a huge plus for us. We spent evenings gathered around the fire pit, soaking in the peaceful setting. The temperature control system also worked perfectly, ensuring we were always comfortable. A special shout-out to Sarah, the host, whose responsiveness and attention to detail made our stay even more enjoyable. Whether you’re looking to relax or explore, this cabin has it all. Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! It was the perfect spot for a bookish girls' retreat—glamorous, cozy, and so thoughtfully designed. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and waking up to the sunrise with all the natural light was amazing. The space was spotless, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the shower, tub, and hot tub were all fantastic. Everything about this place was peaceful and inviting. We can’t recommend it enough and would definitely stay here again!

The cabin was cozy and clean. Beautiful spot with a little pond. Richie responded immediately to any questions. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

Close to the park, secluded, quiet, beautiful little cabin. 30 minutes from all the beautiful falls in the area. Wineries right up the road. Perfect location.
