Holiday rentals with a kayak in Steuben County

We loved the location. Private and quiet. Very peaceful. The lake is just a few steps out the door. Watched the birds, fish jump, and playful otter. Host was helpful with conditions - lots of rain and was very soggy but we had great family time.

Rick & Kim’s place was absolutely incredible!! My boyfriend proposed to me on our trip and Rick & Kim’s response was overwhelming in the best way!! Cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond to make our stay that much more special. Looking forward to our next stay!!

These may have been the most amazing AirBnB hosts we've encountered. They have thought of everything and then some!!! You will want for nothing ( except maybe better weather😉). They are very quick to answer any questions concerns. Wonderful place!!

This was a great stay! Clean, organized, and cute. The perfect girls weekend. The host was responsive and the location was exactly as shown. Definitely will be back!

The host was very friendly and accommodating when we had a bump in the road with our reservation. Everything worked out perfectly and we were very happy with our stay.

This Airbnb was the perfect fall getaway! We visited the lake to soak in the autumn vibes, and this spot exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of room for our group of five, and the host’s recommendations made our trip even better. While the area is known for summer fun, I think fall might be the best time to visit. We had an amazing time exploring the charming shops, cozy restaurants, and stunning waterfront spots, plus the nearby vineyards are a must-see. Can’t wait to return next year when the leaves are changing again—absolutely loved our stay!

A beautiful and peaceful home on the east side of the bluff. The home was updated and easily accommodated 4 adults 3 children and 2 dogs. Wrens nest had a beautiful view of the lake and dock access to the lake. George was very responsive anytime I had a question and accommodated a few things that I had asked for. It was a great experience for my family and I and will definitely be back in the future.

This is a beautiful location and the accommodation is very special. The amenities are outstanding ( BBQ, Hot tub, firepit, outdoor seating area with TV, kayaking/paddle boards) and inside is tastefully decorated and extremely well equipped. The extra little touches and provisions are thoughtful and kind. Kate and Justin are great hosts and go out of their way to accommodate your needs. One of the best Air B&B's we've stayed in. Thanks very much 🙂

The Checkered Duck is a perfect little cottage on the lake. From time of booking to our departure Robyn was so very helpful with recommendations and getting us in touch for a driver to tour the local wineries. Her home was perfectly spotless and perfect for a weekend getaway

Stay here for the view alone! The cottage is quaint and sweet, with the most spectacular view and sunset. The house seemed familiar, lived in, with lots of character which was amazing. We had plenty of room and all the things we needed. Really enjoyed watching a little rain come by under the lanai. This spot is a hidden gem that’s super easy to access and close to amenities and communication with my host was great! Highly recommend

just what we needed. easy place to lay our heads after several days of exploring the area.

We had a terrific stay! Phillip was proactive and responsive. Check-in and check-out were easy . There were personal touches, snacks and wine awaiting us upon arrival! The house is beautifully located on the lake with great sunrises and views. Close to Hammondsport and many great wineries. Highly recommend!

We had a great time at this beautiful lake house. While there are close neighbors, they are quiet and the lakefront area feels very private thanks to the trees. The kayaking and rowboat were a lot of fun. The house has quality furnishings and newer appliances. When we had a concern arise (through no fault of the owners), Mary responded immediately even though it was nearly 10 pm. She made the situation right as soon as humanly possible (first thing in the morning) and her husband actually drove all the way from Pennsylvania to check in with us, though we didn't ask or expect this. While he was there he also installed a new lakefront ladder and chatted with us about area attractions. I highly recommend this home and especially these hosts, who truly care about their guests' experience.

Our second time - was as wonderful as first.

Very friendly, responsive, and proactive host - thanks AJ! Perfect location for relaxing and get away with stunning water view! Peaceful and tranquil neighborhood. Property has all amenities a large family need, with spacious rooms/baths, and lakeview! It was cold when we stayed, otherwise, would have gone out to the lake with the kayaks! Super-sized terrace with screen is perfect for staying outside without worrying about bugs and rains. Nice boat launching deck with crystal clear water and view of there the three lakes meet. Close to Corning Museums of Glasses that is a must visit if you are around! So is Cornell Campus in Ithaca - yes, I am biased as an alumni :) ). Highly recommended and will be back.

My bf & I travel often. This was the NICEST PLACE we’ve stayed via Airbnb. The cottage was spacious & the view was incredible! The beds are so comfortable & the place was immaculate. We spent almost our entire trip on the deck or on the dock. The fishing was INCREDIBLE! Kayaks are fun too! We hiked Watkins Glen. From the grocery stores, wineries, nautical activities & everything in between is all within 15mins or less from the cottage. The overall experience was a trip we’ll never forget. Waneta Lake is definitely the hidden gem of the Finger Lakes! You’re so close to all the other lakes too! I highly recommend this place! Worth EVERY PENNY! & cmon ppl it’s dirt cheap for waterfront! I’ve paid $550 or better a night at other places. Stephanie was so easy to work with. Her responses to my questions were prompt. Her & Kevin go above & beyond as Hosts! We loved it so much that we tried to book it again at the end of the month but it’s booked. We will 100% be back asap! Ty for everything!?

Great remote spot about 10 minutes from downtown Hanmondsport. Stacey was very proactive in communicating with us. There was a considerable amount of rain prior to our stay so she worked very hard to make sure the driveway was cleared for us to drive through. (The driveway is wooded leading up to the house.) It’s a cozy spot, great for just a few people. The view was great on the back deck and made for relaxing starts to the morning.

Absolutely breathtaking views of the lake. We traveled to the area for the Wineglass 1/2 Marathon and it was perfect. Just a short scenic 30 min drive to Corning. We were able to relax at the Lake-house and enjoyed the peaceful setting with s’mores around the campfire and dinners in the evening on the porch. Having 2 separate houses allowed us to have privacy but shared time with friends on our trip. What an excellent AirBNB. Highly recommend. Only wish the pontoon was included.

This place is a really cool find. It has so much to do just at the location itself. It felt like going to Boy Scouts again as a kid. Fishing, a 25 yard range, fire pit, swimming, grills for cooking, golfing, trails, we just kept finding new stuff to do. Really fun place.

We absolutely loved our stay at Lazy Loon Cottage! The house is super clean and charming. We loved the open layout, it was perfect for relaxing all together. We loved the outdoor area as well. The deck is beautiful and the kids loved the fire pit. The gradual shoreline was perfect for our kids. No need to worry about a steep drop off. They could just walk in the water as far as they felt comfortable. They enjoyed the kayaks very much! Adam was very responsive and we appreciated him checking in on us after a bad storm. We hope to stay again sometime! Thank you Adam and Melissa!

We had a wonderful time during our visit. The cabin was secluded and private. Great location to hit wineries and breweries for us, we were within an hour or so of everything we wanted to do(we are used to a 20-30 minute drive on a daily basis for groceries). My favorite was the seating area on the dock overlooking the lake.

We had such a great week at Curtis’s home. It was comfortable, clean and well stocked. Curtis was extremely responsive to any questions we had. The lake is a dream for my grandkids and us older folks as well. We floated the days away when we weren’t kayaking. The beds are incredibly comfy, the couches roomy and comfy- we felt at home! If you are looking for a time away from the rat rage of life, this IS the place. I’ve used Air B and B for years- this was a great find!!! Highly recommend!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cleo’s cabin was an amazing place to stay for two nights. Greg welcomed us warmly and gifted some bait to my kids to fish in the pond. We enjoyed everything about our stay. The cabin is cozy, clean, and well stocked with everything we needed. The solar power worked well despite the rainy weather and we used the generator very minimally. Beds are comfortable and the heater kept us toasty. The porch is perfect for coffee in the morning and reading in the evening. We enjoyed making a fire and toasting s’mores. My kids loved trying the axe throwing game. All in all a perfect stay. We will be back!

What a fabulous little lake front cottage! Perfectly located and clean. Everything needed for a cozy lakefront experience. Will definitely stay again!
