A remarkable secluded getaway on sparkling Skaneateles Lake. This lake house made for a spectacular family reunion location with the feel of a small private club. The grand main floor area offers stunning views of the lake (with the highest ceiling I have ever seen) and the outside deck is icing on the cake ! Just book it!

My college friends and I get together every year for a visit. This year we chose Skaneateles Lake. The place is old with charm and history but there are some other things you should know about this rental before you go. There are many steps! You climb up to the main floor but there is not a bathroom on that floor so you either climb up to the loft or down to the bedrooms when you need a bathroom. The path down to the lake is steep so if you’re not in the shape you were in at age 25, it might be a little tricky. The picture at the website of the deck was taken when there were no leaves on the trees. With leaves, the lake is not as easy to view. With all that said, we still had a nice time and the property manager was very helpful to anything we needed.

This place was perfectly secluded for the two of us. Very quiet, tucked away with lake access. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and will be back!!

The property has great views of the lake from the two decks facing west. The bathrooms are a bit "quirky" but after learning the history of the house shared by the owner, it makes sense. Definetly not a property for young children or the inmobile adult. Had a nice relaxing time....mission accomplished!

My husband and I spent a few days as a minimoon after our wedding on the lake! It was the perfect getaway after the stress of wedding planning. We will definitely be back!
