Beautiful home on Lake Seneca

This house and location were amazing! We only stayed 4 nights but would have loved to stay longer. The house is comfortable and the easy lake access made it desirable to stay at the home all day. However, there are so many fun things to do nearby. Between Seneca Falls, Geneva, boat rides, wineries/breweries, etc, there is so much to do. I would definitely recommend this house and I would stay here again in the future.

Wonderful family vacation for all!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed this vacation home. The rooms were very spacious and included everything we needed. The sunsets on the lake were absolutely breathtaking and we enjoyed evenings by the camp fire (firewood and starters provided by host). The location was perfect to town and wineries. The host was extremely responsive and check in was a breeze. Our furry family members were very grateful they were included too! We would definitely stay at this comfortable home again and again!

Lakeside location

Steve was a great host and responded to my initial questions concerning items that were either missing or broken. The location is lovely, quiet and secluded- perfect for our group of friends. The home however needs updating and some repairs including the kitchen cabinets, kitchen drawers and outdoor octagonal deck, particularly replacing the deteriorating older boards. Overall a nice low key place to stay.

Good place, bad smell

We were a group of women staying to run in a local race. The location was great and description was accurate. However, there was a terrible animal smell coming from the basement and permeating the whole house. We had to make a trip to buy candles and air fresheners to cover it. When reported to the owner after our stay (we were only there two nights and mostly just to sleep), he denied any problem and claimed he had a professional come in to check it out. Safe to say we will not be renting this house for next year's race! Renters beware!

Great location

At first, I was very disappointed, I had hoped to stay at the location and not have to travel. The shore was filled with weeds and dead fish had washed up. There was a major storm the week before. It was not good for small children, I had ages, 3, 4, 5, and nine. We ended up spending every day at Sampson State Park just down the road. It ended up being a blessing, the children loved it there. Seneca State Park is also very nice and this location is in the middle of the 2 state parks. Many great breweries are only a few miles away. The house is also located for the best sunsets every night. We used the firepit every night. The house was spotless and comfortable. The deck looks beautiful in the photo but is actually in need of replacement. If I ever rented again, I would bring some pots and pans, paper plates, extra toilet paper, washing machine detergent, and dishwasher detergent, we ran out quickly.

Unfortunate experience from start to finish

This property was lovely and it's unfortunate that our stay there was clouded by a frustrating and unprofessional booking and check in process. We were not aware of the extra charges for having over 6 people until after we booked the property (the house is listed as being able to hold 10 people). I explained to Steve that the additional people staying at the house were all under the age of 6 and that an extra $70/person seemed excessive; the charges were not taken off the final bill. I asked for early check in because of traveling with young children and the hope of a nap for them; early check in was not an option because of needing to clean and restock the house and firewood. I did not hear from Steve in the days leading up to our checkin, and called the number listed (literally!) 25 times to try and get some information about how to get into the rental that we had already paid for. There was no answer any of the times I called and the voicemail was full so leaving a message was not an option. I also messaged Steve twice about how to get into the rental. I did not hear back then, and still have not heard back five days after our stay. Gaslighting at it's worst. Our party traveled to the house and were only able to enter the house through an unlocked door. If this door had not been unlocked, we would have been stranded with four young children, no place to stay and no way to get ahold of an owner that apparently didn't care about the guests checking in (but would happily take their money). Once we arrived, we discovered that there were only two logs of firewood that had been 'restocked', the propane tank to the grill was empty and a replacement was nowhere to be found, and that the beach was covered in seaweed/algae and garbage and unusable by the children. The house itself was clean and comfortable and fit our group well. I wish we had enjoyed our time more, and that the glowing reviews about speedy communication that Steve has received in the past were true. I'm still waiting for him to get back to me. I've never had such a strange and unsettling experience with VRBO.
