We completely enjoyed this property and location in general. We were there for a week and had never been to the Finger Lakes before. We loved being right on the lake. The house was well stocked. It was a nice location for us. We also felt access to most things we planned to do was perfect.
Our stay was so enjoyable. The sunsets were amazing from the deck, beach and sunroom. We enjoyed fishing and kayaking every day. We took day trips to local wineries and breweries. The cottage was stocked with linens, kitchen necessities and more. This is a perfect place for a couple or a family.
Property was great for our long weekend with family. Great location, plenty of room for 3 couples, well-stocked kitchen, great views of the lake and the sunset.
We had a very nice time there. The sunsets are spectacular. We needed a pet friendly place. It worked well— except they have metal grated steps down to the water and our dog wouldn’t go down them, because he could see through them.
The photos online do not do this place justice. Such a wonderful slice of Finger Lakes life! The house itself was perfect for our family, and is in such a great location – a quiet part of the lake, but incredibly close to so many things, especially between Seneca and Cayuga Lakes. We loved it, and would seriously consider staying again
Nice location and beach front. Especially liked the boat lift which made easy docking for my boat. House was nicely air conditioned except for the sunroom but that was nice in the morning and late evening.Our dogs had trouble with the metal stairs to the water,but they managed. Overall we had a nice stay.
A group of my friends and I stayed here for a long weekend. It was right on the water and was beautiful. The host provided a lot of great information leading up to this day. They have a park pass that you can borrow and they had firewood available if you wanna stay in and have a fire. I would definitely recommend this stay to large groups.

Wonderful place to stay
We were a group of 6 and really enjoyed our stay at this home. There was plenty of room for all of us. The view from the home is amazing and we enjoyed the fire pit both nights. We would stay here again! Thanks for a great place to stay.
We had a great time at the house for a long weekend. An easy drive to places of interest including several wineries and the town of Geneva. It was great to be right on the water with amenities provided like kayaks, beach gear, a fire pit, and more. Would stay again!
Thank you Sandra! Our group had a great time at the cabin lounging on the dock, kayaking and exploring the finger lakes. The property was beautiful and conveniently located, parking was easy, and check in was convenient.
Family vacation and toured the wineries. Close to everything. Place is a little dated, but overall would recommend to anyone going to the Finger Lakes!
My family and I had a wonderful stay on Seneca Lake and really enjoyed being on the water, spending time on the dock, and relaxing in the sun. Both of my children enjoyed taking the kayaks out, jumping off the dock, and the private beach. Geneva was a 20 minute drive from the house and had some nice restaurants, and Cayuga and Canandaigua were not too far away to enjoy as well.
Beautiful, well appointed lake house. Everything you need for a successful lake vacation. Sandra was a fantastic host. In a perfect location for visiting all the region has to offer.
We were very impressed with home and all that is provided with it. our hosts were great to deal with and helpful. The sunsets are amazing, and we enjoyed the lake and Sampson state park. Great location on a quieter street with much to do nearby. Would not hesitate to stay here again.
