English Lakehouse

By Sarah from Troy, NY, Stay: 06/08/2020 - 06/13/2020

English lake house getaway

The English lake house was exactly as advertised. Updated home with three floors each having at least one private bedroom and full bath. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking, decks sport gorgeous views of the lake, fire pit for evening s’mores, kayaks and plenty of tubes for floating! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay (especially close proximity to nearby vineyards and breweries) and look forward to returning in the future.

The English lake house was exactly as advertised. Beautiful home, beautiful location right on the waterfront. Close to Seneca lake wine trail with several breweries and wineries within a very short distance. We utilized the large dock and kayaks every day of our stay. The decks display gorgeous views of the water and the outside chairs and furniture are very nice. We would definitely recommend this place to family and friends and look forward to hopefully returning for another stay in the future!

Beautiful house and a perfect set up for our family group. Appreciated all the extra effort cleaning the house in light of the corona virus requirements.

We had an amazing weekend at the English Lakehouse! Our group of 9 came to the Finger Lakes for a weekend of wine tasting and hiking. We loved hanging out on the dock, kayaking on Seneca, and relaxing around the fire pit. The house was spotless and comfortable for our large group. The kitchen had all of the cooking supplies we needed to cook in all weekend long. The location was also perfect for exploring all of the east side Seneca wineries, as well as Watkins Glen. Couldn't recommend the English Lakehouse more!

Beautiful views of the lake!

 

The house and views from the house were beautiful. The house was in great condition and was very clean. Provided linens were very clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Extra folding chairs and folding table were a pleasant surprise (they worked great as our puzzle table).  Beds were comfortable. The Watkins Glen area provided so many activities for us to do. And the multiple TV’s in the house allowed us to relax in the house and watch some sports when we were tired of being out and about.

English Lake house is a beautiful property. Along with the most serene view of the lake, it has a fully equipped kitchen, comfy beds, and a great layout. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The main deck has ample seating to enjoy the morning sunrises and evening sunsets with the entire group. We couldn't have been more pleased. The one thing you should know, is the road to the house is loose gravel and extremely steep. If using a limo service for your trip they may not make it to the house to pick you up. Our Limo bus made it but he had to back down the last part to get to the driveway. SUVs shouldn't have a problem. Cars will. Also, beware of the way the GPS takes you. From the main road above you should turn directly on to Birge Road none of the other side streets around it, they are worst.

The English Lake house was just beautiful. The addition of a fire pit and two kayaks was amazing. We kayaked daily and also brought our own paddle boards which we used daily. We loved the quiet setting, the garden and the spaciousness of the house. My husband and I took the lower room which was like having our own apartment. It would fit two families easily. We may be back with more family next year. Also, the hiking in Watkins Glenn as well as Robert H. Treman State park was spectacular. Ithaca is a cute college town with delicious food & shops. We also loved the Atlas Bowl near Taughnnock Falls. The Grist Iron Brewery across the street was top-notch too. We usually rent near the beach but decided to try a lake house and we absolutely loved it!
