Cape on the Lake

By Carole from Essexville, Michigan, Stay: 10/25/2023 - 10/29/2023

Seneca Lake

We had a wonderful stay at Cape on the Lake. The location was perfect for exploring the Seneca Lake area. This property is owned by a rental group so the typical amenities are missing…soap, shampoo, salt/pepper etc. They do provide a start up supply of toilet paper and trash bags and this is all clearly communicated with you through email. Beautiful property and area. We loved our visit!

This was the nicest lake house we've ever rented! It was absolutely beautiful! The views, decks, and outside areas were amazing! The dock was huge & very nice quality. The swimming area was massive and we spent a lot of time in the water. We also spent a lot of time on the deck and outside patio. The materials & furniture were extremely high quality and well planned out. The basement looked newly renovated and was practically a whole separate unit. Our teenagers loved it! The main floor and top floor need some updating but there was plenty of room and lots of great spaces. (We wished there'd been a bathroom upstairs though) Again, we absolutely loved this property - especially the outdoor spaces which were the best we've found in the Finger Lakes area. We'd love to come back sometime!

Cape on the Lake is a beautiful home for your vacation. We loved the outdoor spaces. The entire property is beautifully landscaped. The back deck was the perfect hangout, there's multiple sitting areas throughout the property, and the dock is just glorious. Really loved the beach area, with a fire pit to boot. It's located about 20 minutes from Geneva, and very close to many excellent wineries. Truly loved Cape on the Lake, highly recommend!

Absolutely Beautiful Lake House

This house by far the nicest lake house we've ever rented. Plenty of room and AMAZING outdoor spaces! We didn't want to leave!

Beautiful sunsets, very nice house

Our family of 10 stayed here for a week and the house was great! You can’t beat the nightly sunsets over Seneca Lake with a perfect view from the deck. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, comfortable beds, nice linens, cool AC, and generally a well cared-for home. Two kayaks for use by renters were a great addition. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, dishes, pots & pans, etc. but you definitely need to bring your own paper products and cleaning/laundry supplies. Only negative: checkout is 10am which I’ve never experienced at any other rental property or hotel. 11am is standard and would really be a good change so that large families have time to pack up, wash dishes, gather up towels, load up the cars, etc. We were very rushed trying to get out by 10am — and that timing was not published anywhere in the house, nor mentioned in any emails from the property management company. I only found it by going back to the original VRBO listing. Please consider changing checkout to 11am and then the house will be perfect.

Perfect Family Vacation

The house was perfect for our family of 10. It was exactly as pictured. The porch/deck combination was wonderful. The owner was terrific. We plan to return next year.

Beautiful Setting!

It's a beautiful property and location checking in and out could have been more timely!

Great House and Location!

Overall great experience. We really enjoyed the house and all of the amenities. Close to the wineries and even pizza delivery. Enough space for everyone and the fire pit was stocked with wood to enjoy. Would stay again.

We absolutely LOVED the home! It was beautiful, private and the perfect size for our birthday celebration:) It was close to an endless supply of wineries and breweries and we found some cute Amish stores to buy some delicious produce and baked goods from! We couldn't have been more happy with our stay

Cape on the Lake is a stunning home directly on the water. Our group really enjoyed using the fire pit, relaxing on the dock and having morning coffee on the back deck. We had 11 guests and everyone slept comfortably with no complaints. I would absolutely return to this home for another Finger Lakes vacation!

Very satisfied. Beautiful location right onSeneca's shore. Best one we've rented yet (this was our 3rd).

Great place for young families because of the fenced in front yard. The dock is beautiful and the new porch was amazing. The addition of a fire pit helped with our smores nights. Love the outside color, too! It has a very homey feeling there. We made so many positive memories!

We had a wonderful family vacation - the covered deck with a view of the lake was amazing. Our grandchildren ate and played out there between boating and swimming off the dock.

Lovely, well-built home with plenty of space for our family of 6 adults and 2 children under 10 years. The covered back deck and dock were the highlights of our stay. They provide gorgeous views of the lake and have great and comfortable seating for lounging and dining. The beach was perfect for launching kayaks!

By Martha K from Lake View,

A very nice place with plenty of seating for all 10 of us. The landscaping and stairs to beach are lovely and we all loved the deck to sit and watch the sunset. All in all a fabulous home!
