About this house rental
Summary:
A beautiful home on Seneca Lake with views that will leave you speechless! This cozy, private lake home has so much to offer: a hot tub, outdoor ping pong, Pac Man and more. We are 2 minute drive to Roys Marina for boat rentals and other lake fun!
This location is conveniently located along the Seneca Lake wine trail and less than 10 minutes from downtown Geneva. Whether its family gatherings, a romantic getaway, or hanging with friends, this house is the perfect match for you!
The Space:
Our home Drift Away, nestled on the largest lake in the Finger Lakes region, will allow you to drift away from life's worries.
Parking is available above the house, with a staircase leading you down to a beautiful landscape and the most incredible view of the lake. A leveled lawn allows for family play or a picnic. The entrance leads into the main floor filled with large windows to give you lake views from all areas of the house. Adorn with hard wood floors and knotty pine walls, this house will make you feel tranquil and right at home.
The kitchen is modern with state of the art appliances, and plenty of counter space for cooking with family and friends. The living space is very plush with 3 couches, a smart TV (where you can access your own Netflix account), in addition to a DVD player. A decorative fireplace creates an ambiance perfect for cozy evenings, sharing a bottle of wine, or just lounging around. The dining table seats 6 with additional seating at the counter. There is a full, newly renovated bathroom with a shower and plenty of counter space.
The second floor of the house is up a spiral staircase leading to 2 bedrooms. The first bedroom has a queen size bed with plenty of storage. Large windows in this bedroom allow you to watch the sunrise without leaving your bed! The second bedroom offers a double bed with a closet, and an additional cot located in the closet. There is an another small living space with a smart TV as well. A small alcove with a picture perfect view of the lake provides a great place to read, relax, or play Ms. Pac-Man.
There are sliding glass doors that lead to a large deck which runs along the length of the house. Our beautiful, long dock is set up with Adirondack chairs and a table. A great dock for fishing, afternoon drinks in the sun, or just relaxing close to the water. An oversized staircase leading into the water will make swimming very safe and accessible. There is plenty of outside furniture for basking in the sun, and a grill for outdoor cooking (propane provided). After a long day of fun in the sun, you may wish to relax and unwind in the hot tub which offers scenic views as it sits facing the lake. There are kayaks and life vests of all sizes for safe lake time fun.
This home is one of the finest on Seneca Lake and will exceed all of your expectations!

A perfect hide-away on Seneca Lake. Everyone loves the hot tub in the cold weather and the videogame machine is a big draw. Five minutes up the road to shop at Wegmans and the kitchen is well-appointed.

Amazing property
My boyfriend and I booked this getaway not knowing what to expect and it definitely was one of the best trips! This house was amazing.. the view, the fire pit, the hot tub and the sunrises from the bedroom were breath taking! The wineries and breweries in the area are great! We were able to do a wine tour with a driver which was awesome. We cannot wait to come back!!

Exactly what we wanted.
Delightful cottage on the edge of Seneca Lake. Just 10 min south of Geneva, so good access to necessities and dining options, yet a world away in peaceful vibe. Will definitely return.

A girls weekend getaway proved once again to be fantastic. This is the third time we've stayed at Drift Away and it never disappoints. Coffee on the dock early morning, fishing, kayaking, relaxing, watching sunsets and sunrises absolutely amazing. As always, Chris made the stay welcoming.
Our girls weekend consists of 5 women who had no issue sharing the 1 bathroom and the accommodating sleeping quarters. The Apple TV, board games, wine and laughter along with a trip to the FLX wine festival in Watkins Glen made for a fun time.
Highly recommend Drift Away, I promise you, you will certainly drift away to relaxation while staying here.

Great Graduation Gem!
Our stay at the cottage was great. It was the perfect setting for a relaxing graduation weekend – close enough to all the Hobart events but away from all the craziness. The cottage had everything we needed! Thanks Chris for sharing your place!

Great stay on Seneca Lake
It was our first time to the Finger Lakes, and this property was a great choice. Very comfortable sofas, chairs, and beds. Beautiful home, beautiful view, and the hot tub was great! Kitchen was perfect for preparing a nice meal. Close to many wineries and breweries. We all had fun and look forward to coming back again soon, maybe in the spring, summer, and fall!

Cares will drift away...
This home is appropriately named! We had a lovely stay despite iffy weather. Chris has thought of everything to make vacationers feel welcome and well cared for. Everything was immaculate and in perfect condition. Beds were comfortable and towels were new and plentiful. Loved being able to save some money and eat-in for several meals. The view is amazing and we even scored a beautiful sunrise one morning. Thank you, Chris, for sharing your home with us!

Fabulous!
The home was clean and very comfortable. The view and the outdoor deck with fire pit, grill, patio furniture and hot tub as well as chairs out on the dock were just perfect for fall weather. All the recommendations from Chris were spot on. Thank you for sharing your home.

Great place for a family vacation!
My husband and I were looking for a place to take our two sons (ages 8 and 4) for a little end-of-summer trip. This house had everything we wanted in a vacation home - a short drive from Buffalo, location right on the lake, kayaks and a paddle boat, a beautifully updated interior, and easy access to various attractions (Strong Museum of Play, hiking, playgrounds, etc.). We would definitely stay there again!

Perfect spot to relax!
The house is beautiful and literally could not be any closer to the lake. Everything is very well maintained and tastefully decorated. The amenities like the hot tub, lawn games, boats, and the dock make it so you have to force yourself to leave the house to enjoy the wineries!
Chris was fabulous to deal with. I highly recommend and would definitely go back!

Heaven on Earth!!!
My second time at this amazing home and location, brought friends from Pittsburgh for a Girls weekend.... well they can’t wait to schedule their own weekend with their husbands!!! They could not believe the beauty of the location, how everything is available in the cottage you just walk in and hang your clothes. The comfort just like home, the closeness of wineries and town is a plus. Fabulous neighbors!!! Will only stay at this location when I come to the area. The owners have out done themselves!!!!

girls weekend
wonderful place to stay- my second time staying in the house. Weekend away with my girlfriends. Only complaint was the hot tub. It didn't look the best and smelled weird. We didn't get to enjoy it.
