Great location with beautiful surroundings.

We spent Thanksgiving week at Sunset oasis with my husband, my dad, and our dog. The cottage was cozy and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with everything I needed to cook the full Thanksgiving meal. The lane is quiet and the Lake view was peaceful and restorative. Debbie was responsive to any questions I had. Would definitely book again!

Great location on the lake, close enough to Ithaca and many wineries/breweries. Hot tub was great! Perfect getaway!

It was a fantastic winter lake experience.

Debbie’s place was lovely. It was very quiet & peaceful, just what I was looking for but I’m sure in the warmer months it really comes alive! We really enjoyed the beautiful sunsets over the water!
