Great little Hidaway!
Got caught in a crazy 4 day snow storm! However, it was the coziest place to sit by a fire, Netflix marathon and just wind down and wait out the storm! Leigh could not have been more helpful and concerned about me being snowed in! She helped so much by injuring a plow would dig me out of the 4 ft that had accumulated in 48 hours! I would go back there in a heartbeat (without the storm!)

A quick trip north to see the fall colors
We spent a couple of fall days in this cozy cottage with a wood burning fireplace. We cooked our meals and had everything we needed. It was too cold to kayak on Findley Lake but we did sit on the dock and in the boathouse to enjoy the sun. Lake Erie and Panama Rocks were nearby so we did some hiking. Just as we were settling in, it was time to leave.

Can’t beat this location!
This cozy cottage is on beautiful Findley Lake and the views are spectacular! It’s close to Chautauqua and to Erie, PA, wineries. Plus, its boathouse allows you to enjoy the views even when it rains. The hosts were very communicative. I would definitely recommend a stay at Hidden Cove!

Perfect Cottage for a Relaxing Week at Findlay Lake
We loved Hidden Cove as much for the setting as the cottage itself. Cottage is very private with a grassy lot on one side and boat docks on the other. We spent a lot of time on the beautiful stone patio overlooking the lake. The boathouse was a great place to read and relax on the several rainy days we had. The cottage itself is completely revovated with an open space floor plan and an efficient, well stocked kitchen. Lovely upscale bath room and very comfy bed. Leigh was a very helpful host and we enjoyed an evening of live music at her Bison Trace Glampground. I didn’t find the lake great for swimming bestselling of the algae but it’s a wonderful lake for boating. The cottage has great kayaks and a canoe. Hope to come back for another summer vacation next year.

Perfect Lakeside Retreat
You can literally jump off the back patio into Findley Lake! We loved being right on the water, and were so thrilled to have access to the kayaks while we were there to explore the lake! The amenities and proximity to the lake are really what make this place shine. We had such a relaxing and enjoyable time and would highly recommend it!

PERFECT location, and extremely clean rental. Wished we stayed when the weather was warm so we could take advantage of the boathouse and lake amenities -- no detail was spared! If we are ever in the area again, we would stay again without hesitation!

A slight disappointment.
While we enjoyed our stay in the area, there were some misses regarding our stay. I think it would have been nice to know that at this time of the year that Findley Lake is drained/lowered for various reasons. The shoreline was quite exposed which was hardly what we were expecting. Secondly, I had dropped something on the floor and went to look for it and quite honestly it seems like the place had not been dusted in some time. Next, I would say that the bed is quite high off the ground which for us was rather uncomfortable. Finally, as one flushes the toilet, the water pump makes quite the unique sounds (pumping). We have a well ourselves, so this is not a knock against wells, but just rather loud. While these items may seem overly critical, we did pay a relative decent price for our stay which turned out to be just ok (meaning the house/cabin).

Relaxing Cottage Experience
Wonderful and relaxing experience with amazing views! The cottage was clean and had everything we needed during our stay. Leigh was extremely responsive to our questions. We really enjoyed the fall getaway and even with rainy weather we were able to enjoy the lake views from the fireplace heated living room. We look forward to coming back to experience the boat house and kayaks in the future.
