Welcome to Island Vista, a stunning Finger Lakes vacation rental that perfectly captures the beauty, peace, and charm of Canandaigua Lake. Nestled along a quiet private drive on the northwest side of the lake, this spacious four-bedroom vacation home combines modern comfort with serene lakeside living. Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a reunion with friends, or a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, Island Vista offers the ideal setting to relax, reconnect, and experience the best of the Finger Lakes region.

From the moment you arrive, the calm of the lake begins to work its magic. The soft rustle of leaves, the sound of gentle waves lapping at the shore, and the fresh breeze off the water all invite you to slow down and savor the moment. The home’s manicured landscaping and natural surroundings create a welcoming, tranquil atmosphere that sets the stage for your stay.

Step inside and you’ll be immediately greeted by the breathtaking views that define Island Vista. A wall of windows fills the great room with natural light and provides panoramic vistas of Canandaigua Lake that shift with the time of day—from the golden glow of sunrise to the warm, soft light of evening. Every glance out the window serves as a reminder that you’re in one of the most scenic corners of the Finger Lakes.

The main living area has been designed with both comfort and connection in mind. The open-concept floor plan allows the kitchen, dining, and living areas to flow effortlessly together, creating a perfect space for family gatherings and group entertaining. The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, generous counter space, and a large island bar that encourages conversation and togetherness. Whether you’re preparing pancakes for breakfast or sharing a bottle of local wine while dinner cooks, this is a space where memories are made.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the long wooden dining table seats the entire group comfortably, making it the perfect spot for shared meals or late-night board games. Large windows surround the space, filling it with sunlight and offering stunning lake views from nearly every seat.
After dinner, unwind in the inviting living room, where plush leather sofas and warm lighting create a cozy yet elegant atmosphere. A privacy wall offers a touch of seclusion without blocking the open feel of the main floor. It’s an ideal place to gather for conversation, curl up with a book, or enjoy a movie night together.

Just beyond the living area, sliding glass doors lead to the lakeside deck—one of the home’s most beloved features. This outdoor space captures everything guests love about lakefront living. Start your day with coffee and birdsong, enjoy a leisurely lunch in the sunshine, or spend the evening gazing at the reflection of the stars on the still water. The gentle rhythm of the waves and the peaceful view make this deck a place you’ll never want to leave.

Two bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, designed to provide comfort and accessibility for guests of all ages. Each room features cozy bedding, soft lighting, and easy access to the home’s beautifully updated bathrooms. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms offer privacy and space for everyone in your group, making Island Vista perfect for multi-generational families or couples traveling together. Every bedroom is tastefully decorated to create a relaxing retreat after a day of lakeside fun.

The second-floor loft area adds an extra layer of convenience, especially for guests who may need to balance work and play. Equipped with three dedicated desk areas and high-speed Wi-Fi, this workspace allows you to stay connected while still enjoying the peaceful setting. Two of the desks even feature lake views, turning daily tasks into moments of calm inspiration.

Step outside to experience the beauty of the property in full. The lush green lawn stretches all the way to the water’s edge, providing plenty of room for outdoor games, sunbathing, or simply lying back and watching the clouds drift across the sky. The permanent dock extends into the lake, offering the perfect place to fish, launch a kayak, or sit with your feet in the water. The gradual, shallow entry makes swimming and wading safe and enjoyable for guests of all ages—especially families with young children.

The property’s peaceful lakefront location ensures you’re close to all the fun without the crowds. Spend your days on the water, then come home to watch the sunset from your private deck or lawn. The evenings here are truly special—quiet, starlit, and filled with the sounds of nature that define a perfect Finger Lakes vacation.

Beyond the home, Canandaigua offers endless opportunities for exploration and entertainment. Enjoy lakeside dining at New York Kitchen or Nolan’s on Canandaigua Lake, or sample local craft brews at Young Lion Brewing Company and Twisted Rail Brewery. For a family-friendly day out, Roseland Waterpark is just a 10-minute drive away, while Kershaw Park and the City Pier are ideal for picnics and leisurely walks. End your day with a stop at Scoops Ice Cream—a local favorite for both kids and adults.

During the winter months, Bristol Mountain is only a short drive away and offers skiing, snowboarding, and breathtaking views of the snow-covered valley. No matter the season, Island Vista offers a front-row seat to everything that makes the Finger Lakes such a beloved year-round destination.
