This house was perfect for three couples. The house was very clean. The neighborhood was very nice, beach access was perfect - We grilled at the beach while watching the sunset.

Our daughter is doing a clinical rotation in nearby Geneva - we are from Mass and looking for a place to meetup with her. The house was immaculate and very comfortable. We would love to go back in the summer to enjoy the lake!

We stayed here with a couple of friends and our dogs for my husband’s 40th birthday. The place was clean and inviting. I love the location. It was perfect to walk the dogs every morning and evening. It had great amenities available. We had an issue when we arrived with the hot water. We called and they came right out and fixed the issue. Will definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much for the review and for recommending our rental. We hope to see you again during your next trip to the Finger Lakes.
Really great house with views of Seneca Lake from multiple side. Updated, clean, and big! Would definitely recommend for a group to spend time at the Finger Lakes. Just be sure you bring food with you because there is really not much nearby, and no door dash or uber eats options.
Overall, great time at a great place.

We really enjoyed this property. It had all the amenities listed and was in a great area that gave easy access to day trip around the area to see the Finger Lakes, Waterfalls, wineries, cheese and ice cream dairies for tastings. Big deck for sunsets and friendships. A wonderful week had by all to celebrate 60th birthdays of lifelong friends.

We (three couples) rented this property to enjoy the wineries and breweries along Seneca Lake. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood across from the lake. Beautiful views. The wineries/breweries were a few miles away in either direction, as well as restaurants. The house was very clean and had plenty of room. Lots of board games and a shuffleboard table. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything was great. The bed in the room with the oars is very uncomfortable. Could use a new mattress and box spring. Otherwise everything was fine

Our family rented this house for a Thanksgiving getaway and we could not have been happier! This house was perfect and everything we needed. It was the cleanest house we have ever rented. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we could need. The host was very responsive with all communications. The location is centrally located to many wineries, breweries, and distilleries. It is also a very quiet neighborhood. We would definitely rent this house again!

Overall good location with plenty of space to spread out. Outdoor deck was good to hang out on. Although it would have been nice if there was some kind of partial cover on deck. Afternoon sun was quite brutal on deck. Kitchen was nice with large refrigerator and countertops. Master bedroom with large on suite was great.

We had a lovely stay - the house was beautiful and in a great location. Very close to the small public beach access, which was nice. Very straightforward directions to get there. The only thing we would have wanted to see improved were the beds. The king bed in particular was extremely hard and uncomfortable. Other than sleeping arrangements, the house was perfect - great deck with a gorgeous view. The neighbors were so friendly and welcoming.

We all were so blown away with this property. It is so much bigger and prettier than the pictures. It is beautiful, spacious and has everything we need. It really was a home away from home.
The beds were so comfortable with so many pillows and blankets.
The cooking utensils were perfect!!
The outside patio/wrap-around deck was amazing. We loved having our coffee out there.
We honestly just needed our clothes. We got to know some neighbors which was so much fun!
Thank you!!

House was exactly as described and had all the basics that are needed. Positives: View of lake pretty good over the lakeside houses. Sunsets terrific! House condition is excellent. Plenty of space for our family plus infant. Beds very comfy. Quiet area and safe for walking. Downsides: no roof over deck- if it rains you can’t get outside; if it’s beastly sunny/hot, very challenging/ uncomfortable on deck. Long skinny driveway - had to juggle cars in/out.

My husband & I travelled with our 2 pups along with my brother and his fiance. It’s nicely situated along Seneca lake in a private community that has a shared park / private access to the lake. It’s quiet with kind, friendly neighbors. Only 20min from Geneva with great eats and late night drinks. Near plenty of wineries and breweries. The accomodations were well appointed, clean, and comfortable. Only the primary bedroom had a ceiling fan so you may want to bring one with you if that’s important for your comfort in the secondary bedrooms. All beds were comfortable. Great location for our dogs too since the deck is secured with a gate - we loved our morning coffee out there with the dogs. Highly recommend!

This was our second stay at this house in the last 6 months. Our first time was after Memorial Day. Just the two of us and our 35lb dog. We loved the location, the layout and space of the house. This time we came up for a Halloween wine event at Hosmer Winery on Cayuga Lake and we had family come up for an overnight while we were here. Eight people (and our pup) in total. The house was still great! Open floor plan let us all cook and eat together, and watch TV and play games together, but everyone had comfortable "private space" to sleep. We're never sure when we leave when our next trip to Seneca Lake will be, but we'll always look for this house when we come back!

4 out of 5 stars. We were greeted with a dead bird on the porch but made quick work of it with a shovel we found. The shuffle board was a bust. We could never figure out how to stop the pucks from sliding off the end. There were limited views of the lake due to the big trees and houses across the way. There was plenty of space and other games to play. We even completed a 1,000 piece puzzle! It was clean. I would stay again.
