Property Information |
|
Our home is located right in the heart of wine country, and overlooks Seneca Lake from the east side, where the views are amazing and the sunsets are often filled with spectacular colors. Set among summer cottages and homes in a rustic/country-style neighborhood, our property has 150 feet of spacious lake frontage with a 10 foot wide dock in the middle. Depending on the weather and day of the week, the atmosphere on this uncongested lake ranges from calm and peaceful to joyful and fun.
Our home is fully furnished and features an Arts & Crafts-style living room. There are hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen, dining room, and master bedroom, slate floors in the hallway, and carpeting in the second and third bedrooms. The master bedroom, living room, and especially the dining room (with its eight windows) all have clear, broad views of the lake/sunsets. The community areas are large too (living room: 17' x 22', kitchen and dining room: 22' x 22'). Up to five people can sleep comfortably in the three bedrooms with one queen, one full-size, and one twin bed. The kitchen is fully stocked and the house has air conditioning. There is enough parking for about three vehicles.
Just outside the house is an intimate yard with a grill and a patio set that has cushioned seats and an umbrella. On the lakefront, there's a bonfire ring, canoe, kayak, picnic table, and two shaded hammocks. We also have a small boat shed where you can get out floats/tubes, extra chairs, and an umbrella for shade. There's something for everyone, including swimming, boating, canoeing/kayaking, floating/lounging, long walks along a dirt road through vineyards, fishing, and romantic evenings watching the sun set and drinking local wine.

FROM THE 2007 GUEST BOOK...
**********
We had a wonderful time this week. For the most part, it was sunny and the lake was calm. We really enjoyed tasting the local wines. Your home is lovely, and we hope to come again.
Brad and Sue Thomas, Canada
**********
What a nice place you have- we really enjoyed our stay and want to thank you for the complimentary wine. We spent many evenings playing cards on the patio set, so the wine came in handy. Oh, and the sunsets were fabulous!
The Dykins family, Virginia
**********
Loved it here. It was busy though. We went to a lot of the wineries and hiked the gorge. Thanks so much.
Bob, Marie, Tim, and Dana from Maryland
