About this property

South Cove Sanctuary: Conesus Lake Fun - Near Letchworth State Park!

Escape to South Cove Sanctuary, a cozy four-bedroom lakefront home just a short drive from Rochester and fifteen minutes from Geneseo. Whether you're planning a relaxing getaway or your first visit to the Finger Lakes, this charming retreat on Conesus Lake offers the perfect mix of comfort, stunning lake views, and classic lakeside living.

From the moment you arrive, you'll feel right at home in this peaceful setting surrounded by nature. The spacious open floor plan is filled with natural light and thoughtful touches designed to help you relax and enjoy your time away. The kitchen features beautiful granite countertops and plenty of space to prepare your favorite meals. Share those meals with your group in the informal dining room with lake views, or head outside to the picnic table by the water for an unforgettable lakeside dining experience.

The living room invites you to unwind on plush seating while taking in the tranquil views. When the weather keeps you inside, gather around the foosball table for some friendly competition or retreat to the sunroom. This three-season space offers a cozy spot to relax away from the sun while still soaking up the gorgeous lake vistas.

Upstairs, you'll find four comfortable bedrooms, each with its own unique charm and peaceful atmosphere. Whether your view is of the shimmering lake or the lush garden, you'll find these rooms to be restful havens at the end of each day. A full bathroom on this floor makes getting ready easy for everyone in your group.

Outside, the gradual lake entry makes swimming and wading simple and safe for all ages. Spend your evenings around the firepit nestled into the lawn, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the stars. Don't forget to grab a bottle of local Finger Lakes wine to toast to your perfect day.

For those looking to explore, South Cove Sanctuary is just minutes from some of the region's best attractions. Enjoy lakeside dining at the beloved Beachcomber restaurant or venture a bit further to Letchworth State Park, where you can hike breathtaking trails and discover stunning waterfalls.

Boaters will appreciate the shared dock access, which allows you to easily load, unload, and tie off your boat right at the property. While the slips are shared, they are reserved for neighboring boats, giving you peace of mind and space for your own watercraft.

With parking for three vehicles, access to public water and sewer, and security cameras for added safety, this home offers everything you need for a worry-free vacation. Please note, pets are not allowed, smoking is prohibited, and air conditioning is not available, but the cool lake breeze keeps things comfortable.

Whether you're here for a family reunion, a peaceful retreat, or an adventure-filled vacation, South Cove Sanctuary is the perfect spot to create lasting memories in the Finger Lakes. Book your stay today and experience lakeside living at its best.

Shared Dock Information: The dock access at this property is shared with the neighboring property. There is land next door that is used to access the dock and allows them to get to their boats. The dock won't be used for anything other than loading/ unloading of passengers. You still have the ability to use the dock to tie-off your boat. The other boats will be in the slips as shown in the pictures. These slips and any boats/ watercraft in them are not available for guest use. You can tie-off your boat directly to the dock.

Lots to do at this location with the kayaks, dock, and all the games available at the house. Yard space was great! Kitchen had everything you could possibly need. An iron/ironing board were in the listing, but were not available. Would have been nice if there were blinds in the bunk bedroom. We had to use blankets to cover the windows. Rental company was great about responding, but not always with following through to get someone out when we needed something.
