Beautiful house on the lake

Vacation on the shore of Seneca Lake, on your own 100 foot private shale beach minutes away from world-class Finger Lakes wineries! This lakefront home feels very private- it's as if you are the only guests on Seneca lake! This home is family friendly and fun for adults, too.

Make dinner on the grill and eat outside on the deck overlooking Seneca lake, or visit some of the nearby restaurants: casual or fine dining. Enjoy a glass of wine on the dock or at a local winery (or brewery, if beer is more your style!). Make a fire in the fire pit on the beach and indulge in some sticky s'mores.

Dock, kayaks, and paddle boats (and life jackets) provided! Play all day at the lake: fishing, kayaking, swimming, or just relaxing. Enjoy the wildlife! Herons and other birds abound- even bald eagles have been spotted in the skies!

This lakefront ranch home features 4 bedrooms (one king, two queens, and a room with two bunk beds) and a comfortable queen sleeper sofa. Two full bathrooms, spacious living room with lots of seating and natural light, and an expansive outdoor deck await you.

Drive right up to the door of the house! There is plenty of parking: the driveway can easily accommodate 6 vehicles. The home is on a quiet residential street with very little traffic.

Only 11 steps to the beach! The beach is a natural shale beach. You'll find a picnic table and other furniture on the beach. In the summer the wildflowers attract beautiful butterflies!

Bring your own boat: there are cleats on the end of the dock available for your use.

Stay comfortable! The house is equipped with central air conditioning. The kitchen has all the essential equipment, including all the tools you'd need to bake a cake! Towels and linens are provided.

We love this house and you will too!


During your stay at this holiday home, you'll be close to Prejean Winery. The holiday home offers free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine and 2 bathrooms
  • Free WiFi

2nd time, looking forward to many more!
This is the second time that my friend group has stayed at this location. Everything is just as described. Great location, easy entry, right on the water just perfect! Owners are very easy to communicate with and accommodating. I couldn't recommend this location more. We all agreed.

Fantastic for 3-family vacation
Cozy, private lakefront house was perfect for our combined family vacation. Kids enjoyed the pedal boats and we all soaked in the serenity and sunshine from the deck and the private dock. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared and the host answered my questions promptly. We made easy day drives to Geneva, Watkins Glen and Montezuma wildlife area, and the bike trail to Penn Yan was gorgeous too.

Perfect vacation
Beautiful home, private, and tranquil. Everything you could possibly need! Thank you for all the small touches. I’ve rented many vacation homes with large groups, and the little things make a big difference. The flowers are beautiful! I watched a hummingbird pollinating flowers, baby ducks swimming along, a big turtle. The kayaks and paddle boats were a huge hit with the kids, and plenty of life vests. The fire pit was great, really you couldn’t ask for anything more. Thank you again! Would definitely come back.

Great lakefront property
We had a wonderful stay this past week and it had a great location and view from the house. My family (included my two teenaged boys) enjoyed the kayaks, pedal boats and inflatable tubes this week. The hosts thought of everything from drinking water, soaps, and spices for food. The house was very clean, quiet, comfortable, and functional. We didn’t even turn on the TV all week and instead enjoyed our various trips to the state parks, local attractions, and spent a lot of our time at the dock on the lake. We couldn’t catch a fish, but we loved trying right from the dock! We especially enjoyed the Sampson State Park fireworks view from the dock for July 4th. My family agreed we'd stay here again!

Perfect Lake house for a getaway to the finger lakes!
It was a great house for what we wanted to spend time with our 2 year old and our family friends who had a 5 month old. The house was spacious enough for both our families and we loved having access to the dock and the kayaks. Location is minutes away from all the fun wineries & breweries. Jocelyn was a great communicator and made the whole process super easy!

Cottage By the Lake
Lovely little rancher-style home that felt like a cottage. We had everything we needed for an extended weekend away with 7 adults. The home is situated in the perfect spot on the wine trail. We also caught fish off the dock in between wine and cheese tastings. It was a very relaxing weekend to celebrate my Dad’s 67th Birthday. Thank you!!

Lovely spot on Seneca Lake right in the middle of all the wineries. Lots of room in the house and a great dock with Adirondack chairs. The hosts were communicative and kind when I had a delayed departure due to a rental issue. Would absolutely stay here again. Thank you!

Wonderful stay right on the lake!
The property was amazing. We All said that we want to come back in warmer months. We came the first weekend in October 2022, for a long weekend. There were eight adults no children. The property accommodated all of us perfectly fine and there was hot water for everyone's shower. Being right on the lake was awesome. The fire pit outside right on the lake was also great. It was a little too cold to go out on the water but there were kayaks and paddle boards available none of us were brave enough though. Great sunrise again right there on the lake. And a great location to get to all the places we like in the area. Jocelyn was super communicative and responded immediately with any concern which was mostly just questions before I got there. A nice touch was a sound machine in every room that helped us all drown out our husband's snoring. Really the property had everything we could think of and things we didn't think of. I definitely recommend it and would definitely stay there again. Thank you Jocelyn I've added this to the list of properties I would love to stay at again!

Wedding getaway
My sister was getting married and we didn’t want to be in the way, so we rented this house instead of staying with my parents as we usually do. The house was great we had 8 adults and 4 kids and there was plenty of room. It was super clean and the kayaks to use were a great addition!

The place is even better than advertised. It's got room to stretch out and relax. It's scenic, light, relaxing and perfectly located for privacy and yet in easy driving distance to stores and wineries. The landlords couldn't be nicer! We'll be back!

We were somewhat disappointed in that we couldn't drink the tap water. We also found the thick weeds in the lake made regular swimming less enjoyable.

Great lake house!
We had a wonderful week at Jocelyn and Desmond’s lake front home. Everything was as described in the listing and the home was fully stocked with kitchen appliances and tools as well as a grill and outdoor seating. The sitting area at the end of the dock was a family favorite. We saw beautiful sunrises and sunsets and really enjoyed being able to sit right over the lake. The location is great for visiting the many wineries and breweries and restaurants in the area.

A fun-filled girlfriends get-together
Had a great time gathering with girlfriends at this cozy cottage. The house was spacious enough for the 5 of us. A few minor negative issues were noticed: musty smell especially in the entryway, kitchen faucet needs to be repaired or replaced, sink in one bathroom needs Drano, cobwebs on outside of livingroom windows, deck and stairs to lake needed to be blown off, bushes and trees along driveway, near the deck and next to the lake stairs were overgrown. It would have been nice to have mirrors in each bedroom. Overall the house was comfortable, nicely decorated and functional. We enjoyed the dock and the water toys. Our limited contact with the owners was pleasant. A good time was had by all!

We had an amazing stay here! Plenty of space and it was bright and sunny inside. The view of the lake was top notch and the hosts were incredibly accommodating. We loved the living spaces and having 4 bedrooms was exactly what my group needed. We would definitely book here again.
