Nitty gritty detailed information:
THE HOME:
Situated on 3 wooded acres, our renovated, spacious home offers a peaceful place to escape and relax with your family and friends. We have done that many times and we would love for you to have the same wonderful experience! It's located on town maintained road (which basically means it's plowed in the winter and wide enough that you don't have to pull over for oncoming cars like many of the seasonal roads along the lake).
Our home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms (one bathroom includes a tub while the other two have showers). A spacious living room with flat screen TV, and vaulted ceiling with a wall of windows. The downstairs has the third bedroom plus separate space with 2 boat beds and a pull out couch that can sleep 2 more. The room features a flat screen tv and adjoined is a 300 sqft arcade which is fun for all ages! Our large eat-in kitchen with dining area for at least 8 and the large central island make it the perfect gathering spot as the heart of the home. You will enjoy meals here whether that means cooking with all the pots/pans or whether that means take-out as there's plenty of space for both! The fridge and dishwasher can make stowing away leftovers and dirty dishes a breeze. Our spacious deck with outdoor sectional and chaise lounge chairs has to be a highlight of the home too - perfect for lounging with a good book, a drink/snack or just watching the sunset over seasonal lake views while listening to nature. We have a non-heated “plunge pool” with its own deck, sun umbrella and deck chairs. The third "dining" deck with gas grill also lets you enjoy the outdoors with a separate outdoor dining table (with seating for 8). Each bath is located on separate floors allowing for privacy while still being together. You and your guests will have ample space to park your cars/trucks/boats, etc! (For those interested, nearby Smith Park has a boat launch area for a nominal daily fee.) We recently installed a hot tub for guest use all year round!
We hope you'll feel pampered and comfortable in each bedroom. All our beds and pillows have mattress/pillow covers for hygiene and peace of mind. With clean linens and fluffy pillows, you'll find a king bed in the main floor bedroom and a queen bed in the lower level bedroom (for a total of 4 guests) - with the main floor bedroom having its own flat screen tv. All the bedrooms have blinds and/or curtains that block out the majority of sunlight that comes through the windows. The house can accommodate an additional 2 guests with the use of a queen sleeper sofa. We have enough linens and pillows for those too! It is located in the game room so there is nobody sharing a bedroom. Recently, we added a sliding barn boor so that this lower level sofabed area has some added privacy.
Whether you're staying for a week or a long weekend, we have tried to provide all of the conveniences of being at home without you having to bring anything! All of the below are provided:
• Clean linens (bath towels, pool towels, sheets, pillowcases, comforters/blankets)
• Ironing board, vacuum, hair dryer
• 4 Streaming TV's (2-Roku 2-FireTV w/ subscription to YouTubeTV and Disney+)
• STRONG Wifi and cell signals (no land line)
• Washer and dryer
• Fully equipped kitchen features pots, pans, utensils, plates, glasses, mugs, kitchen towels, toaster oven, blender, coffee maker and Keurig
• Central A/C and radiant heating
• New stainless steel appliances
• Gas grill on deck (grill tools)
• Child-friendly conveniences available upon request: Pack n play, baby monitor (audio - not video!), high chair and 2 booster seats
The house is set on a large lot and an uber private location provides tranquility at all times of the day and night - with plenty of space to explore, run around and enjoy. You can hear an occasional jet ski but more often than not, this house nestled in the woods will make you feel like you're camping with all the comforts of a fully functional, temperature controlled home :)
THE AREA:
We feel our location in Hector is as good as it gets! More than 20 wineries, a handful of breweries and a few distilleries are just a short drive away, along with several delicious restaurants to fit everyone’s budget - from fine dining (Farm to table) to comfort food (pizza/burgers). Most offer beautiful views of the lake to enjoy while you sip/taste the best of the region. We would be happy to recommend some of our favorites to you!
Our A-Frame home with Seneca Lake access is situated on 2+ park like acres and located just off the Winetrail. Our home offers a peaceful place to escape and relax with your family and friends. It's located on town-maintained road for year-round access.

Summary: This 3 level, 3bedroom/3bath home has everything, and all of the major and minor amenities a vacation home should have, including spacious living room and open kitchen plus dining area, large outdoor deck areas, hot tub, large outdoor gas grill, and a fire pit with loads of seasoned wood to burn. The lovely, private site is located on the SE side of Seneca Lake - which is only a few minute, flat walk away - surrounded by trees but also enjoying a picturesque view of the lake through the branches and leaves. The easy-to-get-to site is down a paved drive (not gravel!), right off of the main road (414) and within minutes of a great restaurant, several wineries, and a convenience store; Watkins Glen is a short 15 minutes away. The 6 of us (3 couples) totally enjoyed spending time together inside and outside of the home, but also appreciated having our private living spaces on each of the 3 separate floors). There are multiple smart TVs, and even a game room which adjoins an additional family room on the lower level. Finally, the host was excellent, clearly wanting our stay to be just right, and was very responsive before and during our stay. Highly recommended!!

Summary: We spent 4 nights here last weekend and what a wonderful time we had! The pictures don't do this property justice because it is completely renovated and just beautiful. We loved the hot tub and firepit at night. The property is very close to some of the best wineries, so we could go back and forth during the day. The hosts have the home stocked with just the right essentials so we didn't have to bring everything with us. We will definately come back, and this is where we will stay!

Summary: Our family loved this house! It was the cleanest pet friendly home we have ever rented, and the layout was perfect for our family of adult children and their partners, with each bedroom suite on a separate floor. There was plenty of common space inside and out, and we all loved having easy lake access along with the choice of staying poolside at the house. Being so close to many local wineries, the town of Watkins Glen, and minutes from honor-system farmstands and a fresh meat vending machine (!!) made dining in or out simple. Our hosts were very responsive, as well. We are looking forward to returning next summer!

Summary: The house was easy to find and was pretty much central to everything up and down the Seneca Lake Wine/microbrewery Trail from Watkins Glen to Geneva. The house was very clean and looked just like the pictures on the website. As it was just the two of us plus a 13.5 year old dog (Matilda), we basically stayed on the main floor with one short game of air hockey just for kicks. The appliances were all in great shape with no issues at all. The furniture (indoor/outdoor) was very comfortable as well. One shortcoming was the bed in the master was very soft as compared to the firm mattress we have at home. The property is a work in progress as evidenced by the pallets and pallets of stone, slate and technoblock lining the driveway but once in place they will look great! The fire pit was a welcome addition and lit up quickly on the 2nd chilly night. Only dipped our toes in the pool on the last day but in the middle of the summer, we could see it getting a lot of use. Annie communicated with us really well and gave us a few suggestions as far as places to go eat/drink. I highly suggest Dano Haugier for a nice Viennese dinner, Two Goats Brewery and taking in a wood bat College baseball league game in Geneva or Elmira. Overall we had a very nice stay and would highly recommend staying here for a nice relaxing stay along Seneca Lake.

Summary: This house was perfect for our stay, a relaxing time in the woods but close to the lake. It’s a lovely setup and such a large space for a family or group of friends to enjoy!
