Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Fanatic stay at a beautiful property! Our first time on this lake and it was perfect. The atmosphere was private and we had a view of the lake! The property has a hiking trial and is close to a park right on the lake. The accommodations and conversation were perfect!

My wife and I stayed for five nights at this lovely B & B exploring the Finger Lakes region. The host, Linda, maintains a beautiful home and exemplifies true hospitality. The whole house has a touch of class about it and Linda makes you feel so welcome with her superbly presented breakfasts and warm conversation. We stayed in the Lake View Suite which has a sitting room with views of the sunrise over the Canandaigua lake in front. The house is about a 10 minute drive from Canandaigua which has a number of restaurants and food outlets. With this as a base, we explored the stunning countryside and the wineries - the towns of Seneca, Geneva and Ithaca and the Watkins Glen and Taughannock falls State Parks. Staying at Linda's home made the experience all the better. We will certainly come back here if we get the chance. Thank you, Linda, for making our holiday so memorable.

We loved our stay at Onanda by the Lake! We were in town for a wedding and spent 2 nights here. Linda was a great hostess and the breakfast both mornings was delicious! The bed was comfortable and the view was fabulous! We loved the town and hope to visit again in the near future!

We stayed at Onanda By The Lake on our way to Niagara Falls and it was the perfect place to break our journey. The B&B was simply perfect and in a great location with stunning views of Canandaigua Lake. We'll have to stay longer next time!

What a wonderful place to lay your head for the night. Our host, Linda was so very accommodating and pleasant. From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcomed. Our room was beautiful and had lots of little extras like a mini fridge, bottled water, lemonade and chocolates. The bed was comfortable, towel were soft, bathroom was large. Everything was spotless. Our breakfasts for the two mornings we were there, were incredible! Almond French toast and eggs benedict, along with fresh fruit, coffee and juice. Would not hesitate to stay again. What a lovely home!

This is an amazing Bed and Breakfast! Linda, our host, responded immediately to an online reservation glitch, she accommodated our vegan food choices, (even though this was a last minute reservation,) and the house was both beautiful and very comfortable. The view is breathtaking and much information about the area was provided. She is a very gracious and charming host, and we hope to come back again very soon! Melinda

We liked the Lake View suite with a view of Canandaigua Lake. The house is on a slope, across West Lake Road from the lake. We enjoyed the quiet at night, as there was very little traffic on the road. However, there’s little opportunity to walk along the lakeshore, as the shoreline is all privately owned, except a short stretch in Onanda Park. Linda is a friendly, informative host.

We stayed and this bed and breakfast for one night while in the area for a wedding. Linda was super welcoming and made a great breakfast. The woodlands room was very spacious and comfortable. We got an amazing night sleep in the super comfy bed. Wish we could have stayed another night.

Spent a wonderful night while passing through Canandaigua to visit relatives. Beautiful old home, very comfortable bedroom with full bath and a sitting room. Linda was both knowledgeable and a great cook. Hearty breakfast of almond crusted and stuffed French toast. Wish we could have stayed longer!

What a pleasure to stay at the Onanda by the Lake B&B. Linda, the owner, was warm, friendly and gracious. Her breakfasts were delicious. The house has been well maintained and has a wonderful view of the lake (across the street). The flower gardens added to the overall beauty and joy during our stay. We would highly recommend a visit and will return.
