Escape and relax at our Lake House located on the east side of Seneca Lake in the heart of the beautiful Finger Lakes region. The home is ideally located 1 mile north of the picturesque lake side village of Watkins Glen. It is close to 40 plus wineries, breweries, a distillery, state parks, restaurants and Watkins Glen International Racetrack.

The Lake House is a spacious, airy 2500 square foot lake front home with an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows overlooking the lake. The home has two separate living areas which could easily accommodate a large group or family and still allow a sense of privacy with a total of four bedrooms which can comfortably sleep 6-8. The hot tub boasts incredible lake views and can be accessed easily from both levels of the house. It is the perfect place to end the day with a glass of wine or local microbrew. A flight of stairs leads to a large double deck dock. The upper level of the dock is an excellent space for soaking up the sun or enjoying a cocktail. The lower dock has a great area for swimming.
The space flows beautifully from outdoors to indoors and the many large windows and sliding glass doors allow a sense of connection with the outdoors even when you are inside. The lake remains the central focus throughout the home and can be viewed from almost every room. You can sense the calm, relaxed atmosphere of the lake as soon as you enter the home. The home and outdoor space provide a refreshing and relaxing retreat which allows a perfect balance between enjoying nature and staying in comfortable luxurious space.

The location and layout of this property are amazing. However, everything about this property needs updating. It was not that clean, and there were lots of little things broken down. It needs new appliances and cookware in the kitchen, repairs in the bathrooms, new sheets and linens, and other small things that need more attention to detail. And some of the sliding glass doors had no handles. The bathtub faucet in the upstairs bathroom is coming out of the wall. The guestbook needs updating and cleaning out. This is a fantastic location and the house is beautiful, but someone really needs to go over all of the Amenities and fix things. Finally, it was not easy getting in touch with the owner.

The home worked out well for our group. The furniture was comfortable. The location was perfect for access to town for the festival and our time at the track. It was nice to have a carport for our classic car. Plenty of parking space. The neighbors were friendly. A fire in The fire pit area overlooking the lake on the last night there topped it all off. We all had a wonderful weekend at Drift Away.

We had a wonderful birthday weekend here! The location was beautiful, the hot tub and fire pit were perfect, and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed to cook up a storm (and a real coffee maker and coffee bean grinder). The owner even dropped off a celebratory bottle of wine for the birthday festivities! Wonderful experience, the entire group wants to com back soon.

I loved the location of the house. The main level was very nice. The lower level was damp, due to rain coming in through ceiling light fixtures. Beautiful view from the dock, but dock and steps need some work.

Close to watkins, nice sunset view and plenty of room. Needs to have stairs going down to water reinforced as they feel unsafe.

We had a great time at this property! The location right on the lake is amazing. The house is spacious and had everything we needed. The location is very close to shopping, town, water activities. Check in was a little bumpy and I didn't know to bring my own bath towels. Would highly recommend!

Our family enjoyed a long weekend getaway at this rental property. The location was great just minutes from downtown Watkins Glenn and a short drive to tons of other fun sights and attractions. The property had plenty of room for our group and great early morning sunrise views from the dock on the lake.
