Our book club stayed for a weekend of rest, relaxation and reading - and this property was perfect for all of that! We are already planning to book again in 2027!

We love that your bookclub had a great weekend and hope to see you back again!
Everything was fantastic!It should be noted that if you are bringing a small boat it should be able to be kept on the lift or on your trailer as tying it up to the dock overnight is not suggested due to possible wind and waves at the dock that could cause damage. I wasn't able to make use of the lift with our boat and had it tied up to the dock and needed to pull it one night due to high winds. Not a fault of the property management at all, just a boater passing on some friendly experience! thank you all very much, we had a great time!

We appreciate the review! As noted in our listing, a hoist is available for guests to use and we do not recommend tying to the dock for long periods of time unless you have the proper ties and bumpers for your watercraft. This guest did stay very early in the spring and the water levels were too high to be safely boating at that time, due to rains/flash floods we had that week, and heavy wind.
This property is ideally located along Seneca Lake and provided us with a wonderful family vacation. The water access was ideal for all ages and the view was magnificent.
We loved the home, the decks, the lake, the kayaks, and location. The only problem was that the weather was very hot and humid. The next week would have been great
Serenity Place is just as advertised. Beautiful lake house with all the amenities in a secluded, quiet location but with easy access to wineries, hiking trails and all the Finger Lakes has to offer. We especially enjoyed the kayaks, hot tub and fire pit. The property management company (Linger Hospitality) was very responsive and provided excellent communication before, during and after our trip. We would definitely go again.
Serenity place was the perfect location for a 30th birthday weekend celebration with friends. Conveniently located on the Seneca lake wine trail and with direct access to the lake, this home truly had it all.

The game room at Serenity Place is always a favorite! Happy to hear you enjoyed your stay on Seneca lake!
Clean and spacious with awesome views of Seneca Lake
Perfect getaway for our family. We were actually a bit quarantined because of smoke and yet enjoyed the spaciousness of the house. It is also close to wineries, nature and fun for the family.
My friends and I had a great stay here. Plenty of space, beautiful scenery, and no shortage of things to do. Access to the boat lift was helpful. Conveniently located between Penn Yann, Geneva, and Watkins Glen. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to enjoy the Finger Lakes.
Great space for a large family and beautiful view!
Great place and we enjoyed our stay. The property was clean and very well equipped. I don't think I have ever stayed at a property with so many instructions and reminder notes, they are posted everywhere.

Thanks for staying! If an over-abundance of instructions at the home gave us the 4 star review, we feel that negative feedback is minute compared to the number of guests who have appreciated the well written instructions at this home.
Check in and out times are not that useful to renters! Hotels have better hours for both!!

Thanks for staying! We are very up front about our check in/check out times, they are shown right on our listings so that guests can decide before booking whether those times work for them or not and book accordingly.
Wonderful week on the lake. Great location for boating, bike riding on the Keuka Outlet Trail, going out for dinner, & wine tasting. Home had a lot of great amenities and high quality appliances.
We had an exceptional family vacation at Serenity Place. The property is beautifully situated right on the lake, great amenities. The house is lovely, spacious, and well equipped with everything you need. The management company provided excellent communication, and the check in process was easy.
We really loved this property. The view was outstanding and the house was fully stocked. Instructions for everything was super helpful. Centrally located and no lack of things to do. There were 8 of us and plenty of room for everyone. The openness of the kitchen/dining/living room was really nice as everyone was always involved wherever they were. I would absolutely stay here again.
We had an excellent experience. The home was as advertised. The kitchen was well stocked. We had a very minor issue with the hot water heater. It was addressed immediately and to our satisfaction. Would definitely stay there again.
Great location, beautiful view, excellent accommodation. We spent much time on the deck in great conversation enjoying the views and vibe. A simple suggestion- procure a new toaster!
