Description Description
Nestled on the gentle shores of Seneca Lake, Lake Life offers a tranquil escape designed for families who cherish the simple pleasures of lakeside living. This beautiful Finger Lakes vacation rental blends comfort, warmth, and natural beauty, providing everything you need for a peaceful and memorable getaway. Located just minutes from downtown Geneva and surrounded by the region’s most celebrated wineries, this family-friendly lake home is perfectly positioned for relaxation, exploration, and connection.

Step inside and feel instantly at ease. Expansive, east-facing windows fill the main living space with soft morning light and spectacular views of Seneca Lake. The open floor plan creates a natural flow between gathering areas, allowing everyone to stay connected whether preparing breakfast, playing games, or simply enjoying a quiet moment. Imagine starting your day with a steaming cup of locally roasted coffee from Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters, watching the sunrise paint the sky in gold and pink as the calm water sparkles just beyond the glass.

The spacious living room welcomes you with plush, comfortable seating and a tranquil atmosphere. This is a place where stories are shared, laughter flows easily, and the pace of life slows to match the rhythm of the lake. Large picture windows frame the stunning view, offering a front-row seat to one of the most peaceful landscapes in the Finger Lakes.

The adjacent kitchen is both beautiful and functional — a space where preparing meals feels like part of the vacation. Gleaming granite countertops, custom white cabinetry, and a generous island make cooking a pleasure. Whether you’re flipping pancakes for the kids or crafting a dinner inspired by local produce and wine, everything you need is at your fingertips. With high-quality cookware, modern appliances, and plenty of counter space, this kitchen brings everyone together in comfort and style.

Next to the kitchen, the formal dining area comfortably seats eight guests, encouraging shared meals and conversation that lasts long after the plates are cleared. Wall-to-wall windows wrap the space, offering panoramic views of the lake that make every meal feel special. As sunlight filters through the glass and reflects off the water, you’ll feel as though you’re dining outdoors — without ever leaving your seat.

The main floor also features a serene bedroom with a king-size bed and peaceful garden views, offering a cozy retreat at the end of the day. A nearby full bathroom with a tub and shower combination ensures comfort and convenience for guests of all ages, while the home’s thoughtful layout allows for easy accessibility throughout the main level.

Descend to the lower level and discover the home’s most enchanting space — a lakefront master bedroom that combines breathtaking views with cozy intimacy. Wake each morning to the sight of Seneca Lake glimmering just beyond the windows. This space also doubles as a fun family hangout area, complete with a foosball table that invites laughter and friendly competition. Just steps away, a second bedroom with bunk beds offers a perfect setup for children or additional guests, creating a cozy environment that balances privacy with togetherness. A full bathroom with a shower on this level adds extra convenience for larger groups or extended stays.

Outside, the beauty of Lake Life truly comes alive. The level lawn slopes gently toward the water, providing plenty of space for yard games, barefoot walks, or simple moments of relaxation under the open sky. A permanent dock extends into the lake, offering easy access for swimming, sunbathing, or launching a kayak. Spend sunny afternoons splashing in the clear water, lounging in an Adirondack chair, or simply sitting at the edge of the dock to watch the ripples shimmer in the light.

As the day draws to a close, the lakefront transforms into a peaceful haven of color and calm. Watch as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in brilliant hues of orange, rose, and violet. Gather around the firepit for s’mores and storytelling, or settle onto the deck with a glass of wine from one of the nearby Seneca Lake vineyards. Whether you’re celebrating, reconnecting, or simply taking time to breathe, every evening at Lake Life feels like a gift.

When you’re ready to explore, you’ll find the best of the Finger Lakes right at your doorstep. This home’s location is ideal for discovering the region’s rich mix of outdoor adventures, culinary delights, and cultural attractions. Just a few minutes away, Geneva’s vibrant downtown offers boutique shopping, local restaurants, and a charming small-town atmosphere. Visit Billsboro Winery or Fox Run Vineyards for tastings and tours, or spend an afternoon exploring the nearby Hobart and William Smith Colleges campus.

For nature lovers, there are countless opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Hike through Seneca Lake State Park, take a scenic drive along the wine trail, or rent a boat to explore the lake from a new perspective. Families will love the easy access to nearby parks, playgrounds, and swimming areas, while couples can enjoy romantic dinners and leisurely strolls by the water.

Back at home, the peaceful setting of Lake Life invites you to slow down and savor the quiet moments. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee as the lake wakes up, playing games in the living room, or gathering for dinner while the water reflects the last light of day, this Finger Lakes vacation rental is designed for togetherness and joy.

From its inviting interior to its beautiful outdoor spaces, Lake Life captures the essence of what makes a Finger Lakes lakefront vacation home so special. It’s a place where mornings begin with light dancing across the water and evenings end with stars shining overhead — where family traditions are made, friendships are strengthened, and the beauty of the lake reminds you of life’s simple joys.

Book your stay at Lake Life and experience the peaceful charm of this family-friendly Seneca Lake vacation home. Here, every sunrise brings a new opportunity to relax, reconnect, and celebrate the beauty of lake living in the heart of the Finger Lakes.

Lake Life worked out great for my family's 3-night stay in the Finger Lakes. Location was excellent. Waking up and seeing the lake is a great way to start any day. Moon rises over the opposite side of the lake are awesome at night. 50 minutes to Strong Mu

We made a last minute decision to travel to see the eclipse. Even though it was the day before our arrival, Jenn in the reservation office was great and got us set up efficiently. The home was perfect for two couples and very comfortable. We always have a great experience with Finger Lakes Premier Properties and always recommend them when someone asks who to use for rentals. Thanks for continuing the high level of customer service!

Beautiful home!

We really enjoyed our long weekend. This home is especially ideal for 2 couples as was our case! The views from the moment you walk in are just beautiful!! Definitely no limos, the street down to house was tight. Would recommend lounge chairs to sun on the big deck. Also, would have like to have some cable / local TV for downtime. The home itself is very comfortable and the pictures are right on!

Thank you for the 5 star rating.  We will use your feedback to improve the experience for future guests at this rental.  Please come and stay with us again soon!

Loved it.

We came for a girls weekend and we loved the space and the lake so much. The house was very clean and well decorated. The only minor issue was finding transportation to town, Ubers were virtually non existent and there’s only one cab company we were able to get to answer on occasion.

Beautiful, Quiet, Great Location!

This was one of the cleanest properties I've stayed at if not spotless. The linens/pillowcases/towels were clean and wrapped in plastic per person/bed. This Vrbo is 10-15 mins from the Wegmans supermarket in Geneva for groceries and close to great restaurants like Ports Cafe and wineries. My family had a great time seeing the waterfall at Watkins Glen and taking advantage of the free kayaks to explore the lake. While there is a train track behind the property, I didn't hear it at night, and I think the earliest train was after 8am and only once a couple of hours. So it wasn't that noticeable.
