The kitchen was stocked very well. All the appliances you would ever need. Plenty of dishes and utensils for multiple sittings. Beautiful view of lake from main living/dining area as well as lakefront bedrooms. Large bedrooms and bathrooms. Property situated at end of lake road making it very private. I would stay there again!

this is a great place--three bedrooms have lake views, and the deck also looks out on the lake. Good air conditioning and a good setup for dining indoors and out on the deck. Swimming is excellent. It's close to Ventosa vineyards which offers lunches Thursday-Sunday and sunset wine tasting with live music two nights a week.

Great location and house has everything you need to enjoy your stay! It was a hot week and there were some algae blooms in the water that made it unsafe for swimming. Paula communicated this to us immediately. Cleared in a day, but found other fun things to do in the mean time. Enjoyed our time at the lake swimming and playing games!

Our extended family (4 adults, 2 kids) enjoyed our stay. The home comfortably accommodated us - lots of kitchen tools, cold A/C, great views from the deck and dock. the location is very private but an easy 10 min drive to Geneva for restaurants, Marina for boat rental, wineries, beach/park. Paula was very responsive & easy to communicate with. Thanks for the great time and memories.

25th Anniversary Family Celebration

My husband and I wanted to celebrate our 25th anniversary with our children and I’d always wanted to see the finger lakes area of NY. My family thoroughly enjoyed this lake house. The views from all the windows were beautiful, the host provided all the little extras to make playing in the lake fun! The sunsets are beautiful from this house as well! It is a great location for exploring Watkins Glen and Seneca Falls as well. The host was also quick to reply when I let her know my oldest son had lost his wedding ring in the lake somewhere around the dock. I highly recommend this house as a perfect family getaway!
Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte and a beautiful morning view.

We had a wonderful week at the house. The hosts were accessible and hospitable. The binder in the house answered any questions we had. Thy made it easy to check in and check out. The entire house was well cleaned. We enjoyed the large deck attached to the house. We especially enjoyed the dock and water access. The remoteness of the house made it a peaceful stay for us. If there is one thing we could change, it would be the ladder access from the down to the lake. It was a bit tough for some to use.We saw many different types of birds during our stay and even a young deer. We would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed this property. The description and photos were accurate. A beautiful view of the lake. So relaxing! My only suggestion would be to dedicate a cupboard for food. We arrived with 6 bags of groceries and had no where to put them. Overall a wonderful weekend!

Great stay at lake Seneca

We had a wunderful time at this place. The location so close to the lake is amazing. We enjoyed doing yoga at the pier, playing games, preparing meals together and sitting on the terrace. It was so relaxing! What is really great - the kitchen is very well equipped and we didn't miss anything.

This was the most perfectly organized and well equipped rental we’ve ever stayed at! Paula and her family have truly thought of everything and made it so convient for any possible needs! On top of this the location, view and direct access to the lake and private pier is unbeatable. Truly a gem. We hope to return some day. Thank you Paula!

gorgeous secluded lakefront property

Three of the large, commodious bedrooms have lakefront views. There are living rooms with big TV screens on both floors, and the internet connection is good. The house sits in a secluded woods (there are some other houses, but we never heard a peep!)The walk down to the lake is an easy path. The property is a short drive from good food shopping in Geneva, and just around the corner from Ventosa vineyard which serves a lovely lunch. We enjoyed the wildlife: a pair of eagles watched us swim, we saw herons, a fox and more.

We had a great time!

Dear Paula, We truly enjoyed your exceptionally beautiful cottage by Seneca Lake. My college classmates came from all over the country, from west coast to east coast and from south to north. For some of them, it's their first time to be in Finger Lake region and they were completely in awe. Your cottage is perfect for our gathering and we enjoyed every piece of it. It's truly a gem in the area! Thank you so much for everything! Kind regards, Juliet

Amazing house for wedding weekend getaway

The pictures of this home don’t do it the justice it deserves, it’s amazing! Extremely clean, stocked with everything you need from kitchen supplies, beach towels, kayaks to enjoy the lake, and other cool touches like binoculars to look at the bald eagles we were able to catch. The owners are extremely responsive and accommodating and were even willing to mail items back that our group forgot. We were here for a wedding weekend but definitely plan on returning for a regular vacation. Their dock provided a great setting for morning swims and afternoon lounge sessions to catch sunset. We will definitely be returning and recommend this house to any group.
