About this property

Get away for a short term vacation or longer term stay for a change of work scenery to this gorgeous lakefront house perfectly situated minutes from Seneca falls, Ithaca, the outlets and all of the wineries on both Cayuga and Seneca Lakes. Recently renovated, this charming house is completely furnished for your enjoyment and comfort. This house has an open concept kitchen/dining/living room overlooking pristine Cayuga lake and is perfect for gatherings and enjoying friends and family. This home offers water views from every bedroom with the largest bedroom opening onto an enclosed porch with 180 degree lake views. There is an additional living room/game room upstairs that can also be used as a sleeping porch (4th bedroom). The house is just steps from the water and also offers grassy yards on the lower and upper portions of the property. There is a full bathroom on the upper level where the bedrooms are located and a half bath for convenience on the lower level. ALL THE INSIDE AMENITIES YOU COULD WANT ARE PROVIDED FOR YOUR COMFORT AND STRESS-FREE LIVING: free WiFi, two cable TVs (living room and large bedroom) and a Roku TV in the sleeping porch, microwave, Keurig machine, Ninja, cookware and serving ware, washer/dryer, linens, extra blankets, comfy couches, two living areas, and soothing décor. OUTSIDE, EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO RELAX AND HAVE FUN ARE PROVIDED: BBQ grill, kayaks, paddle boards and inflatable rafts. THE LOCATION CANNOT BE BEAT. A four and a half hour drive from NYC and 45 minutes from two major airports (Syracuse and Rochester). The house is minutes from all the Finger Lake wineries, the town of Seneca Falls (where “It’s a Wonderful Life” was filmed and the home of the first women's rights convention), and a newly constructed women’s history museum. The house is also not far from the popular and charming Skaneateles. An easy one-mile walk brings you to a state park on the lake with trails, a boat launch, sandy beaches, a playground and picnic tables.

Smoking is strictly prohibited inside the house and within 15 feet of the house. Although the house is not child-proof, children are welcome. Occupancy is limited to 6 maximum, but with prior notice, can sleep up to 8. The house offers parking for 3 vehicles. Note: there is a flight of steps to get from the parking area at road level to the house at lake level but when you see what LIVING ON THE LAKE offers, it is completely worth it.

Mid -week Finger Lakes getaway with ftiends

Nice lake front property. Just what we wanted to visit with friends. We chose to eat at home each nite and the kitchen was great to work in. Plenty of dining out options also near by. Many of the wineries are within 15 minutes of the house. Great overall experience! are within 15 min of the house.

A beautiful escape

A truly wonderful house situated right on the lake - you literally are just steps from the water once you leave the adorable back porch! Clean house with everything you could need - and the views are stunning. It was wonderful to see the sunrise on the lake every morning from the sleeping porch. Shops are not a far drive, and there are beautiful state parks nearby as well. Highly recommend this listing - and we hope to come back in the summer. 🙂

Cute Cottage on the Lake

We were very pleased with our stay. Kitchen was well stocked and it was very clean. We were a little disappointed with the back porch as we had to clean it off as it was covered in cobwebs/small spiders. But other than that we had a very nice time and would stay here again.

Fantastic!

This home, located right on the lake is beautiful! The owner offered the use of all inflatables, kayaks and paddle boards throughout our stay! When power went out due to a severe storm during our stay, the VRBO manager contacted us immediately with the information of restoration time. This property is well worth the trip and investment! We made wonderful memories and can’t wait to go back!

Overall very good. The house had wonderful amenities and useful necessities as described. Very well stocked. Two rooms were a bit smaller than I expected and more outside lm stairs than anticipated. I was unaccustomed to the degree of midges and spiderwebs that accumulated so quickly but the lake proximity was wonderful. Easier access for kayak launching would be helpful. The area is wonderful. The decor was lovely.

Great House! Great Location! Perfect for a family.

A wonderful family trip! The property is really well suited for families. The house was clean and organized when we arrived, which made it easy to maintain during our stay. The kitchen had the extras that make cooking easy (oil, salt, pepper) and the cookware set looked new and safe to use. Lawn care came once and like magic it was done while we were out. My son taught himself to stand-up paddle board, we met the neighbors, and used the float mat. We went to Sauders Market (too many times). We ventured to the outlet mall (15 minutes away) and then and the Children's Museum in Rochester (50 minutes away). Follow the owners guidance about safety on the steps, dock, and in the lake. For example we did run over to the Walmart about ten minutes away to get a perfectly sized life jacket for my son. The house provided several life jackets but they were in a couple general sizes. I loved this house so much.

Perfect oasis for your getaway

My family wanted a peaceful getaway and this place was perfect for that. My family kayaked, used the swim pad, paddle boarded and basically floated around all week. At night, we hit a few breweries and wineries or just stayed in and had a fire pit. We stayed during the 4th and neighbors near and across the lake put on beautiful firework displays. If you’re looking for the peaceful getaway, you’ve found it. Look no further!

Great house on a beautiful Lake

We loved our stay at this house on the lake. Everything was clean when we checked in and the views of the lake from both floors are amazing. The master bedroom has an attached sunroom that is wonderful to see when you wake up in the morning. Everything we needed was in the house from the kitchen to the bathrooms and even plenty of seating outside. I can't say enough how clean the house was when we arrived! So appreciated that!

Relaxing Getaway

Very comfy cottage right on the lake with some nice updates and amenities I don’t usually see in similar properties I’ve stayed at. Everything was as described and the area was very peaceful. It was also nice being so close to Seneca Falls. Plenty of restaurants nearby as well as a couple grocery stores so we were able to pack light. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Amazing View

We chose this cozy home for its view and it didn’t disappoint! You felt like you were sitting right on the lake from the living room! The house was very comfy and everything you would need was provided. From extra pillows and blankets, to throws to cuddle under on the sofas, it was easy to relax after spending the day traveling around the Lakes. The kitchen was well equipped and with 3 tvs and games available there was plenty to entertain you. We had one question which the host answered almost instantly. The steps down to the house looked intimidating, but actually weren’t hard to navigate. Well worth the trip down to the fabulous location on the lake! The location made it easy to explore both Cayuga and Seneca and we also ventured over to Skaneateles which was only 30 minutes away. We definitely want to make a return visit to this comfy, cozy home!!

Nice and calm retreat

This is a great property that is literally steps away from the lake. The back porch, firepit, dock, kayaks, paddle boards, etc... allowed us to fully take advantage of the location. The downstairs common area was comfortable for our group of 4 adults and 2 children under 10 to spend time in together without feeling cramped. There is a similar sized common area upstairs that we didn't even use. The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware, dishes, utensils and spices. The bathrooms were well stocked with towels and personal care items. During our visit the neighborhood was very calm and peaceful. It was a short (probably 10-15 minute) drive into Seneca Falls and at least two grocery stores (that we know of). The person managing the property was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. Some things to note are that there are some fairly steep stairs leading from the parking area to the house. They were never an issue for us, but may be if someone is less mobile. The main bedroom is very spacious and large enough to comfortably spend time in. The two other bedrooms are too small to sit anywhere other than on the bed. This shouldn't be an issue if you plan on spending most of your time in the common areas or outside anyway. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at this property!

An Elegant Lakeside Escape

My husband and our 4 adult children spent a lovely few days at this home. It was comfortable and cozy and right on the water. Kelly/ Claudia handled all the details seamlessly and made this vacation so easy. The kitchen was well equipped and the house was set up with plenty of things to do. I loved sitting on the porch listening to the water. I would definitely return.

Wonderful lake house

I booked this house for my family of five, my kids are older, young adults and we were thrilled with the accommodations. There was plenty of room and most bedrooms are generous. The house is well stocked and I found that I overpacked. I didn’t need to bring all the towels, bedding and kitchen supplies that I thought we would need! There was also plenty of floats and lake toys to play with, my kids had a ball. It is also close to town with restaurants, wineries and shopping nearby. The lake is literally steps from the back door, we spent so much time just enjoying the views from the porch. Be aware of the bugs, but they come with any summer time lake property and the bonfire at night kept them away. I also appreciated the available wood pile for the fire. Thanks for a great week!!

About the host

Hosted by Claudia Romano

This is my first home and I am so excited to share it with guests. I know life can get stressful and I wanted a place where I could get away and relax. In particular, I wanted to be able to wake up and feel at ease while sitting and having a coffee with friends while looking at the water. I have found such peace at this house and I hope you will enjoy my home as much as I have. I have tried to create an environment where you can relax and enjoy your time.
