vacation rental description

Our home is right in the heart of wine country and overlooks Seneca Lake from the east side, so the views are amazing and the sunsets are often filled with spectacular colors. Set among summer cottages and homes in a rustic/country-style neighborhood, our property has 75 feet of spacious lake frontage and a 10 foot wide dock. Depending on the weather and day of the week, the atmosphere on this uncongested lake ranges from calm and peaceful to joyful and fun.

Our home is fully furnished and features an Arts & Crafts-style living room. There are hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen, dining room, and master bedroom, slate floors in the hallway, and carpeting in the second and third bedrooms. The master bedroom, living room, and especially the dining room (with its eight windows) all have clear, broad views of the lake/sunsets. The community areas are large too (living room: 17' x 22', kitchen and dining room: 22' x 22'). Up to six people can sleep comfortably in the three bedrooms with one queen, one full-size, and two twin beds. The kitchen is fully stocked and the house has air conditioning. There is enough parking for two or three vehicles.

Just outside the house is an intimate yard with a gas grill and a patio set that has cushioned seats and an umbrella. On the lakefront, there's a bonfire ring and a picnic table with an umbrella. You can borrow the owner's kayak and row boat (with oars), or use the floats/tubes, extra chairs, or life preservers that are kept in the boat shed. There's something for everyone, including swimming, boating, kayaking, floating/lounging, long walks along a dirt road through vineyards, fishing, and romantic evenings watching the sun set and drinking local wine.

FROM THE 2007 GUEST BOOK...

******************************

We had a wonderful time this week. For the most part, it was sunny and the lake was calm. We really enjoyed tasting the local wines. Your home is lovely, and we hope to come again.

What a nice place you have- we really enjoyed our stay and want to thank you for the complimentary wine. We spent many evenings playing cards on the patio set, so the wine came in handy. Oh, and the sunsets were fabulous!

Loved it here. It was busy though. We went to a lot of the wineries and hiked the gorge. Thanks so much.

- in the yard is a gas grill and patio set with cushioned seats and an umbrella
- on the lake frontage, there's a bonfire ring and a picnic table with an umbrella. You can borrow the owner's kayak and row boat, or use the floats/tubes, life preservers, and extra chairs that are kept in the boat shed
- access to the lake frontage from the yard is by way of a sturdy staircase or by a short road that goes around the neighborhood (about 1/4 mile to our frontage).  The staircase has about 70 steps.  The run for the steps is 11 inches, which is nice, and there are three decks with benches, in case anyone needs to rest or wants to see the view.  It's also very handy to be able to drive down if you're carrying coolers, towels, suntan lotion, or are taking some small kids down all at once.  The road is for limited use, especially on crowded weekends, but it is there when needed. 

Note:  Internet is available at the lakehouse, and you can use up to 1.75 GB of data per week, or 0.25 GB of data per day, for free. That should be way more than enough, unless you're downloading a lot of U-tube videos, playing video games, or watching movies online. Video is usually the only thing that uses so much data. I almost always use less than 1.75 GB in a whole month, and I'm on email and the internet many times a day. If you or your children use more, then we will take $2.50 out of your security deposit for every 0.25 GB of your usage above your allotment. If Verizon didn't charge us for extra data usage, we wouldn't need to do this, so we hope you understand.

traveler reviews for this seneca lake house rental

Relaxing on the lake

Amy D. ()
Review submitted: May 2, 2012   Date of arrival: April 24, 2012

I met up with 3 friends in NY to have a Girls "40th" Birthday celebration. I found this home and it sounded great. It was everything it said it was and more. The view was amazing, even on the rainy day, we watched the storm roll in on the lake. It was relaxing, quiet and homey. It was a wonderful get away.

We found it to be a great location. We could drive to many many wineries around the lake we were on, as well as the lakes on either side of us. I would recommend this place to anyone in a heartbeat!!!

Thank you again for sharing your home!!!
