Vacation rentals with lake access in Seneca Lake

Amazing surroundings and the A-frame design and architecture is so inspiring. We had a relaxing time staying at Martin place. The lake scene is stunning day and night!

The place was great and bigger then I expected. Perfect location for everything we wanted to do.

The house was just as described! Comfortable with lots of space. There were two bedrooms and two living room areas with pull out couches. We went to a few of the wineries around; there was a lot to choose from! We loved sitting on the dock. Only things worth noting are the parking situation, where 5 cars are all that is allowed to be parked in the driveway. This wasn’t mentioned in the listing, but the owner messaged a few days ahead of time to let us know. This could be difficult if you’re having 12 people. There is an additional spot across the street where we were able to fit one more car, but it may not be enough space. Consider carpooling! My party didn’t care, but there were a LOT of dead bugs in the doorways, which could be hard to avoid at a lake house but felt like it was missed during cleaning. There were some dishes left in the sink and the dishwasher & the grill was pretty dirty, so it was also just missed during cleaning. Otherwise, our stay was great & we’d stay again!

The cottage was exactly as pictured—comfortable and cozy. We felt at home as soon as we arrived. It was the perfect setting for the HWS commencement weekend! 💜🧡

This was a great house in a great location. Communication from owners was excellent, and house was well set up for guests. Would definitely stay here again.

Michael and Laura were great hosts , we had a wonderful time, strongly recommend

From booking to checkout, Cheryl was excellent to deal with as a host. Everything was clearly explained to make our stay fantastic. The home was better than advertised on the web and the nicest home we have stayed in during our many visits to the Finger Lakes. All amenities as described with tremendous views of Seneca Lake from inside and outside the home. Very close to many places to hike, shop and visit wineries/breweries. Highly recommend this home and host!

Here’s an updated Airbnb review that includes the host’s responsiveness and their handling of a small issue, while keeping the previous points about the interior, exterior, and lovely views without mentioning sunset views: We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The interior of the house was absolutely gorgeous—beautifully decorated, impeccably clean, and incredibly cozy, making us feel right at home. The host was very responsive to all communications and dealt with a small issue promptly and professionally, which we greatly appreciated. The views from the property were lovely, offering stunning scenery that enhanced our relaxing getaway. While the exterior could use some improvement to match the interior’s charm, it didn’t detract from our overall experience. We highly recommend this place for a comfortable and scenic stay!

Joan was an amazing and responsive host! My boyfriend and I stayed here for our 4 year anniversary and college graduation and it was a perfect spot. Amazing wineries ( we loved bully hills as it also had a restaurant) but also amazing ice cream and museums nearby. The place itself was perfect for us two! It’s a studio style but plenty of room as you also have the beautiful dock, fire-pit, and beach style water entrance. As it was too cold for us this time of year, we definitely plan on coming back when it’s warmer to take advantage of the water front access. We highly suggest coming if you’re looking for a get-away, you won’t regret!

We spent 4 nights in Michelle’s Airbnb at the beautiful Waneta lake. It was a great location to explore the surrounding Finger Lake area, especially Watkins Glen stood out to us.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I made the reservation, but this place looked beautiful. I was pleasantly surprised, everything was exactly how it looked in the photos. Kristin and Steve were great hosts, making sure I knew that I could reach them at any time if needed.

My college roommate and I stayed in this AirBnB for our reunion, and were happy with our choice. Great location, sweet little unit, the owners anticipated the needs of their renters very well in terms of what was provided in the kitchen (whole bean coffee + grinder!) and unit. We were two adult female travelers, so used both the bed and the convertible couch - I thought the bed was the most comfortable I've slept on in *any* AirBnb and I've probably stayed in over 3 dozen, so that's saying a lot! My roommate said the couch was "fine" comfort-wise. The A/C unit works great and was adequate to the task. The location is awesome - just down from a coffeeshop (Monaco's), and right near downtown so a quick walk home after a final night out with college classmates. The floors in the kitchen and on the stairwell outside the apartment were pretty squeaky, but it's an old building so that's to be expected. I appreciated the extra linens and the ironing board. I loved the paint color and decor!

Seth’s place was a 1000% worth it. It landed up being one of the best things in our trip and the place was so amazing decorated. Seth and Annie were super responsive and were very warm! I loved all the recommendations Seth gave us and we actually listened to his recommendations and visited all the cafes and hikes. I definitely know that I’m going back at Seth’s and Annie’s place in the winter! ❤️

Great place for a girl’s getaway. My 2 friends and I enjoyed our 3 night stay. We never left the property! It was so peaceful and relaxing! We plan to come back next year!!

We had a great stay here! David was easy to communicate with and very helpful. The place was beautiful and very well taken care of. The lake front location was beautiful! The photos don't do it justice. We all really enoyed sitting on the porch and the dock enjoying the spectacular views! The home was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Hope to go back again!

Our stay at Durga's was superb: The apartment was spotless and spacious and easily accessible from the driveway. Everything in it was neatly and tastefully arranged. There was plenty of hot water, and many towels of various sizes were put out for us. The kitchen is fully furnished with all the necessary appliances and utensils. A large television was available (which we did not use). Perhaps the biggest surprise was the bed's mattress, which was the most comfortable we've ever experienced. We awoke without the usual aching back and sore shoulders. The house itself is very quiet, located on a small country road not far from Route 89, the main thoroughfare of the area, with forest and chirping birds all around and Taughannock Park within walking distance. We heard no sound of traffic the entire time we were there. Durga made herself readily available, should we have any problems or concerns, which we did not. It was all in all a wonderful stay!

What a lovely stay! The cottage's location right on Keuka Lake was absolutely perfect, offering amazing wildlife and lake activity. We truly appreciated the privacy and genuine homey feel – made us feel immediately comfortable. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway. We'd definitely stay again!

Cute, cozy and perfect for our weekend getaway. Everything was so clean and Jennifer provided many items around the house to maximize comfort and convenience. Any questions were promptly answered and instructions from check in to check out were clear and easy to follow! Definitely worth the stay!

Great little cottage! Very peaceful surroundings and easy walk to the lake/state park. Easy drive to several good wineries and restaurants, as well. Would definitely stay again.

This was a great place to stay for our weekend trip! The location was absolutely amazing, and we loved being able to fall asleep listening to the waves of the lake. We had more than enough room for the 4 of us!

We were going to Watkins Glen for the week and saw this listing and we were so happy to be staying on the water! The directions to find the driveway and house were good. The driveway is a touch long but taking it to get down to the water, literally, is just fine! There are some stairs to get from the driveway to the house, but thats worth it to get down to the water location. House was very cosy inside and we really enjoyed the rustic and cabin like feel. The weather wasn't the best for us, but the view on the water made it better. Warm weather, this place would be everything you need. Dustin was great and even reached out to us to give us the lay of the land since we were bringing a toddler and an infant. We will be looking for this place in the future and it is highly recommended!

The view of the lake from the back deck was amazing. The place itself was beautiful with the spiral staircases and very spacious. The place was so clean and tidy before checking in. The breweries and wineries in the area gave us so much to do and were so fun to do tastings at. Job always responded within a few minutes of messaging and gave clear instructions as well. We even got a complimentary late check out, which was very nice of them. Parking was a little tight in the front of the house, but Job mentioned that prior. All in all, we had a great time and the place was worth every penny!

Love the cute waterfront house and beautiful surroundings! Had great time with friends and definitely will come back again!

What a wonderful getaway! The lake cabin, fire pit and lake views were perfect and exactly what we needed. It was quiet this time of year and the view of the falls leaves on the mountain were stunning! The cabin was clean and well-stocked. Communication was a breeze and the hosts lovely! We were so glad for this gem of a place and owners.
