Beautiful but not much to do locally

Property was immaculate, which I truly appreciate, however not much to do there. After a 5 hour drive to get there we had to drive much more to enjoy the Finger Lakes. Most eateries are closed Sunday and Monday and there aren’t many to begin with. If I go again, I will definitely look into more to do. However, beautiful

Perfect Place for a Quiet Getaway

The house was clean and provided everything we needed for our four night stay. The owner actually stopped by to welcome us shortly after we arrived. Located close to vineyards, breweries and the town of Geneva, however it is located off the main road so it is quiet, peaceful, and has a nice view of the lake from the deck.

Many thanks to Gerald and Penny!

We had a great time! Thank you for allowing us to stay. The house was perfect and the amenities in the kitchen were wonderful! Felt like I was at home in my own kitchen. Being on the lake was so peaceful and we enjoyed using the kayaks and canoe. Thanks again!!

Comfy and clean

Our family of 5adults stayed for a week. The owner live 2nd house down and met us on arrival. House was just what we were looking and accommodated us very well. It is located in a quiet out of the way location, but is close enough to the attractions in the area.

Lovely home on Seneca Lake

We loved our stay at this lovely little home, located in Geneva, NY, on the shores of Seneca Lake. The location was very convenient to restaurants, wineries and breweries in the area. The home had most everything we needed for our four night stay. It was clean and comfortable. The owners greeted us upon arrival, and were very helpful and so friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Lovely views of Lake Seneca

My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much. The house is in a great location on the lake with beautiful views. We used the charcoal Weber grill several nights to cook dinner and enjoyed hanging out on the back deck and down by the water. We had everything we needed. It is also a convenient location - not far from Geneva and several wineries.

Relaxing Lake House but limited WiFi

It was a great house on the lake - very lovely and relaxing. The one downside was the WiFi - we were both using the space for video calls and the WiFi wasn’t strong enough. It was a shame especially since we had asked the hosts about their internet speed prior to booking.

Great stay!

Great stay! The beach area is very small and no where to sit comfortably around the fire pit so we didn’t get to have a fire. Jerry and Penny are wonderful hosts and quickly assisted us through a few quirks. It was great having the boat lift as the waves can get rough. Very nice house! We’ll equipped. Jen
