vacation rental description

Best spot on the lake!
Beautiful private property on its own point, located between Watkins Glen and Glenora, on the west side of beautiful Seneca lake. 

One of the only private properties on this most centrally located and largest of the Finger Lakes, it is the ideal season rental (end of May-mid Oct,).  Private drive ends at the cottage with its own point and beachfront. 

Summer cabin Original, beach-level family cottage (set back amongst trees, with large, lawn area in front, going out to the shoreline), built 1961-2, in unspoiled natural setting - 

1,000 feet of  shoreline, and 40 acres of private land with woods and ravines to yourself...

Rent by the week - 7 people max.

More info:

This is a gracious simple cabin designed by Watkins Glen's physician, community leader, musician and artist from the 1940s through the 1970s - an era that saw the Grand Prix international race in its hey-day as well as the beginnings of the burgeoning New York wine industry, when visionary farmers introduced the Johannisburg Riesling grape to the soil on Seneca lake. The cabin stands as a reminder of the last milenium and also a peaceful get-away.   The drinking water is u.v. filtered directly from the lake. Two generations later, we are very proud stewards of this beautiful property and are happy to keep the summer tradition of gathering, relaxing and family fun going!

This is a wonderful headquarter locale for day trips to any nearby fingerlakes attraction: winecountry tours, Watkins
Glen, Ithaca, Corning, or...a spacious retreat from it all.

Perfect for a family get-together or small, private party.

traveler reviews for this seneca lake cottage rental

Best property on the lake!

deniseb (Bath, PA)
Review submitted: November 18, 2011   Date of arrival: July 28, 2011

If you're looking for luxury accomodations, this rental is not for you. But if you're interested in peace and quiet, beautiful views, lots of outdoor space, and absolute privacy, this is the only place to saty in the Finger Lakes. My husband and I brought our two sons (2 1/2 and 6 years old) for a week this past summer. The house was quite rustic but had everything we needed to be comfortable, but the property was unbelievable. We had to get used to the bugs (in and out of the house), but I don't think we could have had a better vacation anywhere else. My boys loved to play at the water's edge, fish off the dock, and dig in the shale on the beach. The hammock was a huge hit as was the fire pit. We roasted marshmallows at the water's edge almost every day. The house was in a great location, very close to a lot of great wineries and restuarnts, as well as downtown Watkins Glen; but once you drove down the long winding driveway, you felt like you were miles from anyone else. We loved our stay at the house and plan to return for years to come.

Pictures and words can not do justice to this cottage on the lake. Not only is it very very private, but you have a whole point to yourself on Seneca lake. If you are looking for a cottage that takes you back to nature but has everything that you need (washer and dryer ect.) then this is the place for you. It all starts with a mile and a half drive down to the cottage. The drive makes you feel like you are the only one that knows about this wonderful place. After you get down to the cottage you take a walk out to the lake, stand on the point and can not believe that all this is yours for a week. On the left side of the point is the perfect swimming area, no seaweed and there aren't any drop offs, so for kids it is perfect. The owners take care of everything, gas for the grill, sheets, blankets, towels, toilet paper, papertowels, soaps, everything you can think of. It is like staying in a rustic hotel. If you want to make memories that will last a lifetime, rent this cottage. Relaxation at its best.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sight seeing, romantic getaway

Owners response: We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for taking the time to recommend our property to future renters with this glowing review. We appreciate your business and hope to see you next summer! Best wishes to you.
