About this property

Waterfront House on Seneca Lake

Come stay at this gorgeous home (new build in 2022) on the east side of Seneca Lake. Enjoy the outdoors with 100 feet of beach frontage and large front yard. Walking into the house there are huge windows showcasing the lake views. The living and kitchen area feature a cozy seating area with a well stocked kitchen. Custom woodworking and features are found throughout the house- from custom oak trim to exposed copper in the showers.

The two downstairs bedrooms share a bathroom. This bath has an easy to access walk in shower. The downstairs master features a king bed and walk in closet. The 2nd bedroom has a twin over double bunk and another twin bed (sleeping 4). Upstairs, the master suite has incredible lake views with a walk-in shower and walk-in closet. The 4th bedroom has a queen bed, with a pull-out twin size chair and a half. In addition, there is a fun sleeping alcove that fits a Tempurpedic sleeping mat for the kids. This bedroom sleeps 3-4. The 3rd bathroom features a tub/shower.
The separate game room has a game table for board games and cards, a television with a DVD player (and DVD's), and a foosball table. Yard games are also kept here, including corn hole, croquet, bocce and Can Jam.
The house sits on a "bluff" that is about 8' high. There are 20 steps to the beach as well as a more gentle slope down to the lake that can be walked. Enjoy campfires on the 100 feet of beach while viewing the stars, or watching the birds. On the bluff we have added a gas fire bowl surrounded by Adirondack chairs for another great spot to enjoy the view.
There is a new permanent dock this year which will have a ladder off the end. There is also a floating mat to enjoy tied to a buoy, once the season gets warmer.

The entry outdoor lights are motion activated, or turn on at dusk, in case your arrival is late. In addition there is one security camera located in the storage room on the right side of the “game room” building facing the road. When you have access to the address, please know that the time period of google maps is prior to the tear down of the previous house. You will notice the tractor and dumpster as we were starting the process. However, if you go to street view you will be able to see our newly repaved driveway!

While building this home, we thoroughly enjoyed exploring the area restaurants, breweries, wineries, hiking and water activities. We hope you will as well and include some new activities you find in our guest book!

Beautiful lakefront property
We stayed here for our annual girls trip and thoroughly enjoyed the accommodations. It was very comfortable for five adults. Sunsets were stunning and the location was perfect for venturing out to nearby towns. The property owner was very responsive and helpful.

Perfect home away from home!
Our family of 10 adults and a nine month old stayed for the week our daughter was getting married at Ventosa Vineyard up the road. The house was perfect in size, location and amenities! We used the kayaks, paddle board, floating pad, enjoyed fires and s’mores on the beach, plenty of room for lawn games! Truly great!

Great stay on Seneca!
Our group of 8 old friends had a fabulous week at this incredible home on Seneca Lake!! As noted in prior reviews, the house is in a perfect location right on the lake, with great views and spectacular sunsets. The house (especially the kitchen!) is equipped with everything that you need for a wonderful vacation. Kim, the host, has done everything to make sure all of your needs are met - and more! We can't wait to go back again!

Stay in Romulus
We had a wonderful stay at Seneca Lake. The house was perfect and my son can’t stop talking about how much he loved sleeping in the “nook”. Amazingly well stocked and it felt like checking into a resort rather than a rental home. We will absolutely be back.

Lakeside Luxury!
The Simpsons were the perfect hosts! The house is beautiful, clean, and well stocked with lots of extras. The location was perfect and the amenities were superb. Our family had a lovely stay with my parents and sister’s family for a family reunion celebrating my parent’s 50th Anniversary. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!

Host profile image
Tom and I have being doing construction projects for 30 years. This is our 3rd build and was most fun because of the help we received from our children and nephews. We are both teachers by trade, but enjoy handyman and building projects in our free time.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to invest in the Finger Lakes region, and love the variety of activities and scenery. We came upon this property and decided to renovate. It has been a great project and we are excited to share it with you.
