Best for a small group, the Lakehouse is perfect for a weekend reset! Steps from the waterfront, it’s perfect for dock sunning or paddle boarding, with outdoor dining areas to enjoy the weather all day long rain out shine. The location is quiet and checking in was simple.

The location is right on the Senneca lake, so spending time on the dock and fire pit made this trip so relaxing. The property space is tight but well organized and the deck can compensate with its large space and beatiful views. The area is very noce to go wine tasting, boating, eat, drink and relax.

Kimberly did a good job communicating with my group. Kimberly was very accommodating to my needs for trailer space. Al was a wealth of knowledge about the local areas and attractions. Their recommendation of the water shed brew house was top notch.

Great place with a spectacular view! The apartment was very clean and comfortable. Perfect for a small family or couples. Loved the large deck and view. Our only concern were the beds, they were extremely hard, a nice foam topper would be great!

The spot is gorgeous and the apartment cozy and inviting. Although we enjoyed our stay, the mattresses could use replacing or having a topper added as they were uncomfortable. All in all, it was a pleasant experience with beauty abounding!

Excellent host, cute place for a small family or couple. My sister slept in one of the beds. She said the mattress was pretty hard. But even so, she slept well. I preferred the sofa so I could hear the waves lapping on the shore. The sofa was comfy. Was able to watch the football games on the TV…a plus for me. Beautiful sunsets! We spent an afternoon in Watkins Glen. It’s about a 40 min drive from Romulus. Plenty of wineries to stop at on the way. Overall, a lovely trip.

So glad to hear you enjoyed the waves lapping. One of my favorite things at the lake too. We've added a mattress topper to add comfort.
