Plenty to do in good and bad weather. Campground store and boat rental nearby (500 feet). Angela is very responsive to any questions that come up. No hesitation to rate this house 5 stars!" - "The photos accurately depicted the home. The beauty of the scenery is best captured in person. There was something for everyone in the family. Some preferred the games, others the sauna. I loved the middle deck. It was relaxing just to sit there and take in the view."

The 3 full bathrooms had been recently renovated, the beds were comfy, the porch cozy - even on a rainy day, kitchen very well equipped and the lakeside fire pit offered memorable evenings under the stars." - "My family stayed at this beautiful lake house during the weekend of the ND vs. SU football game.

- "The house was very comfortable and the view/location were fabulous. The stress melts away when you walk into the sunroom and see nothing but lake. We loved our time on Otisco and hope to come back again soon." - "As always an amazing stay, very accomidatung and beautiful!" - "Great accommodations! Beautiful lake and setting. Parking for 2 full size crew cab trucks (one was left in gravel parking lot but no issues) was tricky. We utilized the public boat launch on the southwest side of the lake and “parked” the bass boat at the dock at the rental. So everything worked out just fine. Unfortunately, we were fishing for walleye, but no luck there. Overall, great experience!"

With one bedroom and bath on a slightly lower level it allows for a somewhat private living space, which was a nice bonus. The interior is very nicely done.

The location is great, easy to find, and the host was absolutely wonderful with communication. We will be back! Thank you!"

Skaneateles farm. SPECIAL & extraordinary 19th cent. 2 floors barn space. Setting: Granary Pond Farm Reserve: 150 plus acres of mowed paths through meadows & forests. Renovated. You’ll love my country ambience, cathedral ceilings, antique wood paneling, vista views, the clawfoot bath tub and fireplace stove. Cabin in the Reserve available amenity also. Close to Skaneateles, the sparkling "Jewel of the Finger Lakes". Good for couples, solos, & business trippers. Splendid! AND SPECIAL !!
The space
Extraordinary is a 19th century building that was previously used as the farm’s grain storage barn. There are two floors and 4 porches - all open for guests to enjoy. This space is heated by electric baseboard heating and a cozy woodstove fireplace. There is also a window unit AC on the first floor for use during summer.
Guest access
Behind Granary Farm Pond across the creek are mowed trails that will take you through and around our entire 150 acre property. We encourage you to stroll, jog or walk your dog on those trails. There are exceptional birding and wildlife viewing opportunities to be had, and early mornings and evening are the best time to do so.
The center of our preserve and the main water feature is the man-made Granary Farm Pond. This pond is spring fed and its cool water is a great for a refreshing dip, even in the height of summer.
- "Great spot. We have a young son 10months. Not ideal for him but they say this in the listing. Great place to stay no complaints" - "The property is incredibly quaint and the Granary is secluded and quiet. We really enjoyed our stay and Sarah is very accommodating." - "I loved the look of it in the photos, and when I first arrived, I was even more charmed by what I encountered in person. However, once I started needing to use the facilities, especially the kitchen, I realized that they were in dire need of renovation/swapping out. The cottage can easily retain the vintage/rustic feel and be a much more pleasant nook with a new kitchen and bathroom. New sinks, countertops and other fixtures would be much more straightforward to keep clean and appealing. Also, there is an A/C leak problem that affects the cottage's downstairs apartment, though the unit itself cools very well."
