Birchwood Cottage is a gorgeous retreat. It is beautifully decorated, cozy, stocked with amenities, and has views that make you never want to leave. It has plenty of space to host a family getaway- yard space for games, a covered patio to take a break from the heat, spacious rooms and kitchen, and a beautiful lakefront view.We rented kayaks, paddleboards, and a lily pad, and had a fun-filled 4 days at Keuka Lake!There were a few minor snafus including lights not working upstairs, an empty propane tank and dirty grill, and an inoperable Firestick remote for the tv.The most notable, however, were the safety concerns about the dock and steps leading into the water. -The dock has multiple boards that are uneven, unscrewed or loose. It is a severe tripping hazard. A member of our party took a nasty tumble on the dock. Additionally, the last two steps leading into the water were so slippery that we had to find a means to clean it ourselves to avoid other spills. Hopefully Drew will address those issues for future guests.It really is an amazing place to stay and is highly recommended!
