About this property

Boondock Retreat on Seneca Lake wine trail. Pet friendly with EV charger

Boondock Retreat is a restored farmhouse on the west side of Seneca Lake.  Located just a stones throw from the Seneca Lake Wine Trail and about 15 minutes from Watkins Glen, this cozy home has great proximity to the Seneca Lake wineries and towns.    **Note: this home does is quite close to the lake, but does not have access to the lake.

Boondock Retreat has been recently completely renovated and remodeled in 2023.  The furnishings are newer with that cozy farmhouse feel and this house will feel like home to you....a place to kick back, slow down, and relax.   The convenient EV charger is a great way to recharge your electric vehicle during your stay at Boondock!

Walking in from the main entry, you'll come into the large open Living room and Dining room area.  The Living Room has a big sectional sofa, smart tv, and a great little nook with games, puzzles, and a table to sit at to do both of these activities!   The dining area has big glass sliding doors that go out on to the back deck and you can peep the lake through the tree line beyond.

The kitchen has stainless appliances, an eat-in Kitchen island area, as well as a coffee bar cabinet.  The large windows in front of the sink face toward the lake, making dishes a pleasure rather than a chore!

Just off of the kitchen are the stairs to the second floor along with the laundry and half bath.  The Primary bedroom is on the main floor and tucked behind the Kitchen.  This bedroom is large with a King size bed and attached bathroom suite with a tiled shower.

Upstairs there is a landing space with a small couch and smart tv.  All 3 second floor bedrooms have a Queen size bed.  Additionally you'll find a large bathroom on the second floor with a tub/shower.

The house has a large deck on the back, facing towards the views of the lake.  There is a grill just off of the deck for cooking up a steak, an outdoor dining table, and lounge furniture for enjoying a glass of wine.

The yard is large, with room for kids or the dog to run, with a fence running around the perimeter.   There is a fire-pit patio with chairs, close to the deck for you to roast your s’mores during the long summer evenings.

We hope you'll enjoy your stay here in this country home, and let the surrounding nature at Boondock Retreat speak to your soul.
