About this property

Lakeside Log Cabin in the Heart of the Finger Lakes

A perfect lakeside retreat in the heart of the Finger Lakes. It’s uniquely located on the Seneca Lake wine trail halfway between Geneva and Watkins Glen, less than 10 miles from Keuka Lake. Whether you’re visiting the area to get out and enjoy its scenic beauty or relaxing by the tranquil water, this hidden gem affords you access to it all.

Begin your escape as you drive along the gravel path that leads to a beautiful log home tucked beneath a canopy of trees with Seneca Lake peeking through. There is ample parking with room for yard games along the west side of the home, and the main entrance lies to the south. The smell of cedar will greet you as you walk into the open floor plan of Secluded Bliss Lodge.

The kitchen spans one end of the home, providing ample counter space alongside new appliances for the family chef. Both the dining and living spaces flow directly off the kitchen and offer comfortable seating, views of the surrounding woods, antique adornments and an ornamental wood stove to enhance the lodge’s rustic charm. Double doors off the living area open to a fully furnished, screened in front porch; a tranquil space with a peaceful view to enjoy your morning coffee.

For your convenience there is a full bathroom with shower and tub on the main floor, as well as a first floor bedroom complete with a queen bed. Go up the set of stairs off the living room and you’ll find a vaulted loft with additional sleeping space. There is a bedroom at each end of the upper level, one with a queen bed and half bath, the other with a queen bed and futon. Handmade quilts and comfy pillows on all the beds guarantee you will sleep “like a log”.

Have fun in the lower level rec room housing air hockey and Ping-Pong tables, puzzles, games and a small tv. From here, open the door to an outdoor space complete with a grill, fire pit and steps that lead to 20’ of lakefront, a dock and boat hoist. Don’t miss out on the subtle luxury that Secluded Bliss has to offer. Book today!

Lake Seneca log home dream
This hideaway tucked up from the lake was spectacular! The 100+ steps to the lake just guaranteed our daily workout! The cabin was supplied with everything needed plus extras. Cleanliness is my utmost requirement and this exceeded expectations. Screened porch was a favorite in evenings along with the fire pit. This deserves a 5 star plus rating! Sarah was wonderful to work with in answering questions and providing ample information.

Comfortable place to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our week. Fire pit was very nice. View of lake could be a bit improved if some of the smaller trees were removed, but overall it was relaxing.

Lovely Lake Cabin!
We rented this cabin for a girl’s trip to the finger lakes area. The cabin was perfect for our group. The screened back porch was our favorite spot. We never used much of the rest of the house as the porch was so inviting. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. It was a great property.

What a Great property. Secluded, clean and had everything needed for a fun couples getaway! This cabin was super clean! Well stocked kitchen with spices, coffee filters, serving trays and everything you could need. Screened patio was perfect and a great camp fire spot just a bit from the house. Beautiful view atop the hill to hear the waves lapping on the beach! Stairs to the beach were…. Very long!!! But it was a great property. I highly recommend staying here!

Private cabin
Wonderful cabin in the Finger Lakes in a very private setting. In a good location for enjoying the wine region. Owners were very accessible throughout our stay. Our one and only complaint was the beds, the mattresses do need upgrading especially for us older folks. Other than that, we really enjoyed the cabin.

This is our 2nd stay here and we're coming back again! Location is perfect for the wine trails, close to The Windmill Farm and Waterloo. Beds are comfortable, fire pit is great and access to the water is beautiful! The owner is attentive to any issues that may arise and we are so grateful to stay at an awesome cabin on the water!

Couple days in wine country
Nice property but needs some TLC. Light switches are difficult to locate, all rooms are very dark. Very dusty. Downstairs bathroom has a tub but NO faucet. Upstairs bed on bathroom side squeaks with the slightest movement therefor keeping persons in bed and the downstairs bedroom below awake. French door leading to outside porch door knob very touchy.

We love the Finger Lakes and we love to share all that this incredible area has to offer!

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. It's at the center of anything you need to make your stay ideal for you.

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is truly a magical place any time of year.

In the winter months cozy up with a glass of wine or a cup of coffee and your favorite book or movie. The view of the lake is incredible once the leaves have fallen and the smell of cedar nourishes the soul. Our neighborhood is quiet and the snow covered path to the cabin adds to its tranquility.

Feel alive in the spring as everything comes into bloom! Wine trail events begin to pick up and area hiking trails begin to thaw.

Summer is our peak season on Seneca Lake. Take a refreshing morning swim, enjoy the fire pit and stop for a pint at our local brewery.

Fall is alive with color. The trees lining our property are ablaze with shades of red and yellow. The sun is warm, the air is cool and the local cuisine is at its best.

We feel so fortunate to live at the center of such a beautiful place.
