Beautiful property with exquisite view of the lake and a large backyard to relax and play games. Host was easy to work with for any questions. House is unique - was fun to take walks and see other properties in the area as well. 10 of us stayed and there was plenty of room. Only negatives (small) were that the kitchen was not huge and cupboard/refrigerator space for food was limited. An additional half bath would also be great, as 2 full bathrooms for 10 people presented a few challenges at times. Overall, we had a great stay and would recommend to others.

July 2019 stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The actual home was exactly as portrayed in the online advertisements. The house was clean, in a great location, access to the lake, and plenty of wineries close by. Would absolutely stay again and would recommend.

Annual pilgrimage to FLX

Pleasurable stay

Just arrived home and wish we could go back. Very relaxing stay despite having 5 small children and no tv. The kids loved the lake. The adults loved the porch once the kids were asleep. Allison did a beautiful job decorating the house and made us feel very comfortable. The location is great. We took many day trips and two restaurants are practically next door.

Painted Porch Stay

The house was clean, well-equipped and in a fantastic location. You could eat a meal on the porch, just sit and take pictures of blue herons or belted kingfishers, or walk along the beautiful lake front drive. We were there for our 33rd anniversary, dined several nights in nearby Trumansburg and would strongly consider returning to the Painted Porch lake house!!

Graduation Weekend

Stayed at the house for a long weekend to celebrate our son's graduation from Ithaca College with 9 family members. House was large enough to spread out and very well equipped to host a celebration in his honor. Easy access to the town via route 89. Beautiful views of the lake and the porch is great size to relax and watch the sunrise. Many winery's located close by. O'Malley's wasn't open for the season yet. We highly recommend and would definitely go back for a full week.

Place to disconnect from our hectic lives and reconnect with each other.

This trip was to reconnect after missing each other very much. We had such a nice mini-reunion and we really enjoyed the quiet, serene surroundings! I cannot report anything negative at all, really everything was perfect. I do think the price is high, especially if you look into the cost during the warmer months, but if people are willing to pay, then they are fortunate. It really is a gem of a house and the owner is lovely and organized to the hilt. Save your money, it’s worth it.

Amazing time at Painted Porch

We had an amazing time! The house had every amenity including a well stocked kitchen. Alison was attentive and answered all of our questions promptly. The inside is beautiful with antique hardwoods. The birds are fun to watch in the kitchen, and we spent hours at the big living room table playing cards, talking in the family room or out on the quaint porch overlooking the lake. We rented a boat and it was great; very little boat traffic. I swam each day. The seaweed is thick near the dock but if you swim out it is clear and the water seems clean. We are thinking of vacationing again as a family and if we do we will definitely go back to the farmhouse. (so glad no TV!)

Graduation getaway

We stayed at the painted house for our son’s graduation. It was home away from home. We had everything we needed and were able to cook all our meals at the house. I highly recommend this beautiful lakefront retreat. As an added feature there is meticulous landscaping and bird feeders all around. A nature lover’s dream.

A beautiful stay with a couple minor hitches

We had a wonderful stay at The Painted Porch. It’s a lovely farmhouse just across the road from lake Cayuga and the views and property are beautiful. The house is comfortable and attractive and the porch is perfect for lake gazing from the rocking chairs or porch swing and from the living room sofa when the weather’s not good. We booked too late for our stay to be refundable and were surprised by some fees and house rules that were not listed before finalizing our reservation, particularly regarding dogs. That said, I don’t think it will be a problem anymore because Alison did not realize this and was going to remedy it right away. Alison was very easy and responsive to communicate with, which was a real plus. Wishing anyone who stays here a wonderful time. It really is a lovely house and location in one of the most beautiful places I know of.

Great home in fabulous location!

We booked this home over a year ago for commencement weekend at Ithaca College and could not have been happier! The home was lovingly curated and it fit together perfectly. From the beginning of the day where you could enjoy your coffee while seeing the sunrise on the eastern view porch over Lake Cayuga to the evening meals in the large dining room, it was an excellent experience. We loved the library, the games, and the multiple bird feeders. The host provided kayaks and standup paddle board for lake fun. Our party of 8 adults could get together in the main room or retreat to their large individual rooms, as needed. It is close enough to town (about a1/2 hour drive) to enjoy all that Ithaca has to offer, yet even closer to excellent vineyards, where, if you are as fortunate as our family, you could spend a perfect day! Alison was an excellent host—quick to communicate and ready to make your experience meet expectations!

Cute House on Cayuga

We had a really nice time! The dining room table was the only space that we could all sit together since the living room was small, and the kitchen space only had 4 chairs at a teeny table. We wish we had known it was a dog house; we wondered why we saw so much dog hair around...and were sneezing so much.....and then as we packed up, we noticed the most dog hair-covered dog bed we had ever seen right beneath our bed. YUCK!
