“I highly recommend Sunset Retreat.”
+Sunset Retreat is a charming one-bedroom cottage in Aurora, NY, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The cottage features an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area that is well-equipped with plenty of cookware, utensils, and everything you might need during your stay. There is also an elevated mezzanine loft with additional mattresses, making it a great option for extra guests. The property is thoughtfully stocked with plenty of linens and towels, as well as essentials such as soap, shampoo, a hairdryer, and a washer and dryer. Just a short walk away, there is a cute little bunkhouse that includes a coffee maker, a mini refrigerator, and a private bathroom with a shower. Everything on the property is well-maintained, spotless, and inviting. The jacuzzi is especially enjoyable after a long walk or hike, and the sunsets are absolutely breathtaking. The lakeside amenities are wonderful, including a small dock with two sun loungers, a separate deck over the water with a gas barbecue, tables and chairs, and a fire pit nearby for cozy evenings outdoors. I highly recommend Sunset Retreat. My family member and I had an unforgettable time, creating wonderful memories together in a truly e
−The only minor drawback for us was the traffic on the private road in front of the property. At times, there was a surprising amount of vehicle activity, including large trucks, which occasionally detracted from the otherwise peaceful atmosphere.

+Everything was amazing! Beautiful cottage, many amenities and a beautiful view of the lake! Great communication! Did I mention the view!? Couldn't have asked for a better stay.
−I can't really think of anything. We didn't get a chance to use hot tub or kayaks. Maybe next time. :)

“You can not get any closer to the lake.”
+We were in the Ithaca area for a graduation. So glad we found your lovely cottage for the weekend. We loved the comfort of the house. The view and the lake. We only wished the weather was nicer. And you are right about the sunsets!

“Loved it!”
+Loved the house, loved how the owners thought about everything you might need.
−Not that we didn’t like it, but it’s 2.5 miles down a private road. It takes you a while to go somewhere.

“Our weekend at Sunset Retreat was stress free and comfortable.”
+The cottage was just like home!! Thoughtful little things like wine & toiletries.
−TV options, had Netflix first night, then lost access. “Live” tv is tricky. EVERYTHING else was awesome!

“בקתה נהדרת על שפת האגם”
+בקתה מפנקת, מטבח מאובזר מאוד, מכונת כביסה ומייבש, חכות לדיג, שקט ושלווה על האגם.
−שהחדר לילד ממש בכניסה לבקתה, תחושת ריחוק ממנו, היה פחות נוח לנו. הדרך הפנימית באמת יכולה להיות מייגעת, זה 15 דקות רק בכביש הגישה. לאנשים לחוצים זה פחות מתאים.
