This is a sweet cottage on the lake. My husband and I were very comfortable here. Beautiful sunsets each night were great to come back to after visiting wineries and antique shops during the day. Hosts were very helpful in recommending places to eat and visit in the area.

Clean fresh air and clean fresh lake water were such a treat! Cottage was very comfortable; hosts thought of everything. Quiet and relaxing. We hope to stay there again.
The property was beautiful, clean, and fresh. The owners were helpful and pleasant to deal with. And the view from the deck is spectacular.

Bob and Mary, newly retired in 2020! We have worked in our respective careers for a very long time and looking forward to relaxIng and taking care of our home outside of Rochester NY and our new lake house on Seneca Lake. ‘Taste of Serenity’ is close to so many amenities in the Finger Lakes area which is ‘one’ of the many reasons we fell in love with it!

Mary is a retired teacher. She loves hosting former teachers/school staff!
We look forward to meeting you soon!🥰🥰
Why they chose this property
Taste of Serenity is not only spotless, but decorated for the renters with everything available at your hands. Stocked kitchen, two grills (propane/charcoal), new heat/AC system and everything else you need for a great time and to feel at home! The proximity to the wineries and breweries, as well as the wonderful restaurants close by in Geneva is not only convenient, but lots of fun things to do!
What makes this property unique
So close to wineries, breweries, farm markets, restaurants, Wegmans, etc! Also a very quiet area to sit and read, watch the wildlife and the beautiful sunsets on ‘Seneca Lake’.
