A great summer weekend on the Finger Lakes!

A group of my girlfriends stayed here for a weekend and enjoyed the outdoors and wineries in the Finger Lakes. The house was perfect - comfortable, clean, had great outdoor activities, and indoor/outdoor spaces to hang out. We had an awesome weekend!!

Girls Reunion Weekend

The property was perfect. Very clean, very well provisioned. The proximity of the house to the water was our favorite feature. We ate all our meals on the back patio table, watching a heron fish for minnows with the gorgeous sunset as a backdrop. The shore was nice and shallow, and the lake was warm. We barely got out of our bathing suits from sun up til sundown, and then we gathered around the fire pit. Even though we had planned to visit a local winery, we wound up never leaving the house, as it had everything we needed for a lovely reunion weekend. The only quibble was that one of the bedrooms had a smoke detector with a dead battery that annoyingly chirped. We couldn't find a battery in the junk drawer, and pushing the hush button only temporarily delayed the chirp. The owner was not reachable through neither the app nor on the cell phone provided. He did respond later the morning after we reached out, and apologized.

Seneca Bungalow Family Time

The Seneca Bungalow was just perfect for our group of 6 adults and 2 children. With COVID 19 this was the first time that we could all be together for months and our family time was wonderful. The cottage had everything we needed: plenty of parking for our 4 SUVs, a beautiful dock to sit on, a great backyard for outdoor games, a fire pit right by the water with six comfy Adirondack chairs, and a back porch with rockers and ceiling fans! The indoor space of the cottage was beautifully decorated and had every thing we needed! AC for the warm days and ceiling fans in every room. The kitchen was very well stocked with every appliance, pots, pans, dishes, bowls, serving bowls and platters and all necessary utensils! The living room was adorable with a large game closet and shelves with books, binoculars and info about the finger lakes area. We didn’t need the fireplace but there is one there to use! The master bedroom was beautiful and large with a master bath and a walk in closet. The other bedrooms upstairs were very pretty too. One with a king size bed, another with a queen bed and the third with two twin beds. All bedrooms had dressers, night stand tables and TVs. The upstairs bathroom was vary large with a washer and dryer. The third bathroom downstairs was also a full bathroom with another washer and dryer! There were tons of adult and child sized life jackets and beach towels for all. All bathrooms had plenty of bath and hand towels and washcloths. The kitchen also had a small supply of paper towel, baggies, tin foil and Saran Wrap and bag clips and the bathrooms supplied with toilet paper! Wood for the Firepit was easily found just a couple miles down the road. I’m sure I’m forgetting things but would highly recommend this cottage! As a plus the double kayak was so much fun and was taken out several times by us. Thank you Calvin for sharing your cottage with us!

Disappointed

Good: This home is lake front and offers beautiful views to the west. Although it's small, it seems to offer ample space on the inside. There is a lovely master bedroom on the first floor, and three additional bedrooms on the second floor. It's also tastefully decorated and furnished throughout. All furnishings seemed to be in great shape and showed little wear. In my opinion, this home is also in a great location. Although it is about a 10 minute drive to Geneva, it is close to some of my favorite wineries. It's located in an area that is not densely populated, offering a pleasant rural atmosphere. Bad: Although this is a newer home, it is beginning to show signs of wear. There is obvious sheetrock patchwork, with the largest patch located on the kitchen ceiling. In addition, some of the walls are showing marks and gouges, which also indicates signs of abuse. The outside furniture seemed sporadically placed or thrown by the wind, and left in their final resting place or overlooked. To me, it's another obvious sign of neglect and a lack of attention to detail. The lot that the house sits on is small and in close quarters with neighboring homes. The driveway is only wide enough for a single vehicle, and can only accommodate 3 or 4, depending on their size. The road that it's on is also too narrow for street parking. My biggest (and most inexcusable) complaint was that a large piece of the roof above an upstairs bedroom window was peeling off. Due to the endless wind here, the loose piece of attached shingles repeatedly lifted and slammed against the plywood roof, causing a very loud banging sound throughout the house. This noise was relentless and non-stop. It was as if the roof was under construction. As a result, our enjoyment was hindered and none of my guests were able to sleep. When we advised the owner, he advised that he was unaware of the issue, only offering an empty apology. It is impossible that anyone who prepared this house prior to our stay could have been unaware of the issue. Given the rental price, it is utterly inexcusable. Conclusion: Despite my generous two-star rating, this property does has a lot to offer. If it were not for the roof issue coupled with the owner's empty apology, I would have given this house a higher rating. I expected better or partial compensation.

Lovely home, but ....

The little bungalow is immaculate, cozy, and filled with the finest linens, glassware, games, DVD's, and kayaks. Truly, the bungalow is cozy and comfortable. Our difficulty with this rental was that we had children from 18 mos to 9 yrs of age and safety is always the issue. The home is located just feet from busy East Lake Road; the children could play only on the small patch of grass behind house. The dock surface becomes extremely hot in the summer sun. And, there is not a safe dock ladder. There is a foot long plank missing in the dock that someone can easily hurt themselves if they fell through. One is not able to call our host as he does not pick up the phone and his mailbox is filled. Emailing him through the VRBO website is a bit more successful. Reservation ID #HA-JH1HPF

Another fantastic Seneca Bungalow stay!!

This was our 4th stay, and we can’t say enough about how wonderful this home and its host is. It’s always spotlessly clean and maintained, and the layout works perfectly for our group of four couples. Location on the lake is perfect, and close to some of our favorite winery stops. Top notch all around, thank you Calvin for sharing this gem with us. Already looking forward to stay #5!

Perfect girls weekend

This house is even more beautiful than the pictures show. The outdoor space is also larger than it looks in the pictures and so incredibly beautiful- right on the lake. The house was fully stocked with adequate linens and everything you could need in the kitchen. The home is clean and modern, plenty of space for a crowd. Communication with the owner Calvin was seamless and prompt. I would definitely recommend this home and working with Calvin for anyone looking in this area.

Great place

This house was great. The back yard set up was better then the on line pictures. We were able to kayak and swim. The kitchen was well stocked. We were pleasantly surprised that the bunk beds were twins instead. Just for your information there is one bathroom upstairs, one in the master downstairs and one by the front door.

Beautiful well appointed home

We spent most of a week at the bungalow and found it to be every bit as lovely as described. There were just two of us and a pup, so we only used the main level of the house. The huge windows allow for maximum lake view and sunshine, with blinds when you don't want the sun coming in. We were on a work/vacay combo trip, so the reliable and fast wifi made for a smooth week. The kitchen has literally everything you'd need to prepare meals - more tools and gadgets than we have at home. The lake was shallow in front of the house making it easy in/out, especially with the dog. Shopping and dining were plentiful in Geneva (about a 15 min drive) but capacity restrictions meant carry out only on this trip. The steps in and out of the house were taller than average, so those with short legs or old knees will find them a little challenging. All in all, we had a lovely stay and wouldn't hesitate to choose this as home base for another Finger Lakes adventure!
