About this house rental

The Lake House is a restored 1880's farmhouse nestled on the western slope of Seneca Lake with approximately 400 ft of lakefront and a beach with a firepit and a dock. In the past it has been a Bed and Breakfast. It is very private, surrounded by woods and garden, on 10 acres of land in the midst of The Seneca Wine Trail as well as the growing brewery, distillery, chocolate and cheese trails. The house contains many family heirlooms. it is roomy and has many areas for guests to gather.

If combined with the cottage (#231064) it makes for a nice haven that is especially amenable for reunions and family gatherings. There are many activities to keep you busy on and off the property. In addition to 2 canoes, two kayaks, and paddle boat, there is a firepit on the beach and on the backside of the house. There is swimming and fishing (w/ license) off the dock.
The large front porch is great for lounging, socializing, eating and otherwise taking in your surroundings.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was large enough to accomodate our extended family. Everyone had their own bathrooms. The house was beautifully furnished, clean, and had all the necessary ammenities. The wrap-around porch was perfect for morning coffee and while getting to the lake is a bit of a hike (you can either walk or drive), it's worth it. The lake was beautiful and clean and provided many hours of swimming and lake-related sports. Michele was a courteous and responsive host. Oh, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you'd need to cook meals for large groups.

The house was great for our family of 8 adults, an infant + 2 dogs. There was plenty of rooms and configurations for everyone. The location was convenient to all the local wineries, breweries, farms and restaurants. The DSL internet was very challenging to the members of our group that were working on vacation. Also, having a very large cleaning fee while also being asked to strip the beds and take out the trash (which is down the very long driveway) was disappointing.

Our stay at the Farmhouse was delightful. The house is so nicely decorated and pleasant. It fit my family of 14 and three dogs perfectly. The front porch was truly a center point for us. We ate all of our dinner meals on the porch. Also the downstairs bedroom was used as a den for the kids and they loved being there playing or watching TV. As a host, Michele was attentive to our needs beyond expectation.

We enjoyed our stay and found the location to be beautiful. The house was listed accurately. The owner responded promptly when we reached out with questions. It would’ve been helpful if there was clearer communication regarding paper products. Dishes were put away that were not clean. Cooling on the third floor is a challenge. We loved the size of the house and yard. Our family thoroughly enjoyed it!

Without a doubt, the Lake House was the perfect gathering spot for our family to celebrate multiple recent events, including birthdays, anniversaries, and graduations. Everyone, ranging in age from 70 to 3, had a fantastic time and everyone was thoroughly enchanted by the lovely Lake House!

Our big family got together here for my sister’s college graduation, and it was the ideal spot for us to reconnect and celebrate! The rooms were lovely, tidy, and the kitchen was well appointed. We enjoyed afternoons and evenings on the porch, grilling out, and walking down to the lake to swim and enjoy the kayaks. Our children started running in the large meadow/yard the minute we arrived, playing ball and swinging on the hammock. Thank you to Michele for clear and quick communication. We will hopefully be back!
