This was perfect for my three boys and our dog. The gated deck and dock were a great place to hang. The house was clean and beds comfortable. Linens etc was all as expected. The dead end street is nice and quiet as well. Would highly recommend.

My husband, dog, & I stayed here for 4 nights and I wish we had more time because it was wonderful. The house is open, has a nice kitchen, a spacious primary bedroom, & two guest rooms. Everything was organized and clean and check in & out were super easy. Everything was accurate to the listing and photos provided. There's a huge dock as well as a second deck by the water and a little beach area that's perfect for younger kids that want to play rather than swim. By the dock there's a lot of weeds, but if you swim out deeper you can enjoy the water. I'd suggest water shoes as the rocks are slippery but easy to navigate with shoes on. I was a bit worried about the stairs down to the water as I have bad knees, but even I was able to navigate the stairs going slowly. It's the about the same as two flights of stairs in a house. Pretty much everywhere in the house that faces the water has amazing views. There's a nice table and grill on the deck. We had some friends visit for dinner and their two young children had a great time swimming and enjoying the deck. The place is very dog friendly and our dog loved having the freedom to roam inside the house or outside on the enclosed deck. There isn't central AC but the unit in the main area & bedrooms worked great and we were fine on 85 degree days. It is right next to the train tracks and the trains are pretty loud, but they're super short so it never bothered us. I highly recommend the Serenity Zen House!

We had a wonderful stay at Serenity Zen. The house was in a great location to explore Wineries, Breweries, great restaurants and NY State Parks. We especially enjoyed our time on the deck overlooking Seneca Lake and using the provided kayaks. We plan on coming back!

This house was very clean and in a comfortable location. All neighbors were quiet. The multiple decks (including the dock space) were laid out well. All of the basics were there for our use, and the owner was available should we have needed anything. We would stay there again.

Our family of four visited for a wonderfully long week. Highlights of this property: Beautiful view Easy access to lake Quiet and peaceful on the lake Skipping stone heaven :) House stocked with many amenities we would normally travel with - a big treat! Two bathrooms and a full three bedrooms Lots of space Host communication excellent Close to “other things to do” and restaurants, groceries If you’re visiting for the first time, don’t miss: Watkins Glen trails Sans Dumplings The Spotted Duck Once (one stop unique wine tastings) Amity Coffee Watershed Brewing Black Squirrel Farm tour - native black walnut A drive up and around through Geneva - enjoy the history, walk around, beautiful! Things you might want to know: You still will be in the car, but short drives Wegmans is very helpful to have nearby There is laundry at the house now!!! It is an all-in-one machine, so loads take time. But it is so helpful to have Bring towels for the lake/boats Nearby outfitter will deliver and pick up additional boats - the house has two singles. Ask if they take payment other than cash - or bring enough cash Lake is fantastic for paddling - kayak and SUP time everyday Natural lake bottom, rocks, and vegetation (yay!) - your kids might want water shoes or the like until they adjust The a/c works very well, but bedroom window units can be loud There’s a train! It’s short, and infrequent, but can be loud The kitchen is well-stocked and ready to cook/eat any food you want to bring

We had a peaceful, relaxing week at the lake. This is a truly beautiful property. The multiple deck set-up is great. The area was surprisingly quiet - not much activity on the lake in early July. There were many wineries near by. The property had plenty of adirondack chairs, floats for the lake, bikes, rocking chairs, a large grill. I'm not sure what else we could ask for. There was even a Keurig machine and a washer/dryer combo that were not in the listing. We would love to come back!
