Serene Lakefront Retreat on Seneca Lake – A Year-Round Hidden Gem!

Escape to our charming One Bedroom, One Bath guest house, nestled on the shores of Seneca Lake in the heart of the Finger Lakes. Whether you visit in the warmth of spring, summer, and fall or during the peaceful, crowd-free cooler months, this retreat offers breathtaking views and easy access to world-class wineries, breweries, charming towns, and scenic parks.

Your Home Away from Home

Perched on the second floor, this light-filled retreat boasts sky-high ceilings and skylights, inviting natural light into every corner. Designed with comfort in mind, the open-concept living and dining area is the perfect place to unwind—whether you’re indulging in a good book, enjoying a meal, or simply soaking in the tranquil surroundings.

Step outside onto your private balcony, where you can sip your morning coffee to the sound of birdsong, relax to the gentle rhythm of the lake’s waves, or stargaze under the vast night sky. A short stroll leads to the dock, where Adirondack chairs invite you to watch unforgettable sunsets, dip your toes in the water, or take a refreshing swim.

Fully Equipped Kitchen: Prepare meals with full-size appliances, ample counter space, a microwave, and an outdoor propane grill. Enjoy fresh coffee with your choice of a Keurig or drip coffee maker complete with coffee grinder.

Dining with a View: Enjoy meals at the four-person dining table or outdoors.

Lakeside Leisure: Walk down to the dock, unwind in the yard, or take in the sights from the balcony.

A Prime Location for Exploration

Situated between the Seneca and Cayuga Lake Wine Trails, you’ll have easy access to over 200 wineries, breweries, cideries, distilleries, and farm-to-table restaurants.

If you love the outdoors, explore:

State Parks & Waterfalls: Hike through breathtaking landscapes, visit wildlife refuges, or bike scenic trails.

Marinas & Watercraft Rentals: Head to Sampson or Geneva State Parks for boating, fishing, and water adventures. (Water shoes recommended for swimming!)

A Few Notes for Your Stay

Perfect for Couples - Great View of the Lake
What attention to detail on this gem of a home. Just the right size for a couple with a beautiful view of the lake. Immaculate, warm and inviting place to stay. Our hosts thought of everything, including little things like water in the fridge, a few snacks and complimentary coffee. The layout is great, with an open feeling thanks to the cathedral ceilings. Our hosts were helpful, check in was a breeze. We will be back for sure!

Simply Perfect!
This was our first time to Seneca Lake, and we are so glad we found the perfect place to stay. The house was spotless and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the sunset on the lake each night and cooking in the kitchen that had everything we needed. Page and Derek were excellent hosts. They provided us with many recommendations of places to visit in the area including but not limited to vineyards and nature trails. We were impressed with all the suggestions and hope to visit again to try to make a dent in the list. Thank you for sharing your house with us.

Enjoyable stay!
Peaceful place to stay. The sunset is nice over the lake. Nice location. Everything was very clean and well put together. Paige was very hospitable offering suggestions if we needed them. She even had a few bottles of water in the fridge and some snacks. The books on the area and the binoculars were also a nice touch. We did not cook there, so I can not say anything about the kitchen items. I would definitely stay again!

You MUST stay here!
This is super cute, very modern apartment, but oh my, it's kitted out like a 3 bedroom house! The Kitchen is kitted to be able to cook anything you want to, with great silverware, flatware and good knives! (can you tell I cook?) The view is sublime, and it's so private, no one overlooks you, because of the way the owners have designed it. Location to wineries is excellent, and the owners give you great advice on the good ones to go to. Sitting on the dock at sunset is perfect, as it faces west. I honestly couldn't recommend this more - and we'll be coming back!

We were more than satisfied with this beautiful apartment on the lake. It is very cozy, while being airy and bright.

Amazing stay on Seneca Lake
We loved everything about our stay from the time we made the reservation until the time we departed for home. Everything about the listing is accurate as the property is beautiful and very well appointed. I especially appreciated the small details (ex: having all of the light switches marked, easy instructions/using a QR code to access wifi, having towels laid out in the kitchen and bedroom, items stocked in the kitchen, access to an outdoor grill, etc.) as well as the communication, helpfulness and friendliness of the hosts (Page and Derek). If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing getaway at an amazing property with an amazing view then this is the place for you!

Restful
Communication with perfect. They provided many recommendations of places to explore, restaurants, and the numerous villages in the area. The accommodations were exactly as described and the photos are accurate. Great views from the deck and very relaxing and restful. What impressed me most was the host seemingly thought of everything. While it may be minor, we were in need of a bag clip and, sure enough, we found one. That’s an example of the attention to detail the hosts provide. I highly recommend this Vrbo, and we would absolutely book it again.

A perfect stay in the Finger Lakes
My husband and I booked last minute and we truly hit the jackpot with this lovely rental. Honestly, it was hard to leave in the morning and I looked forward to enjoying a glass of wine on the deck each evening when we returned. The apartment is spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. Communication with the hosts (who are wonderful!) was flawless. I cannot recommend this rental enough!
