Drift Away: Hot tub, kayaks, fireplace & Pac-Man

Summary:
A beautiful home on Seneca Lake with views that will leave you speechless! This cozy, private lake home has so much to offer: a hot tub, outdoor ping pong, Pac Man and more. We are 2 minute drive to Roys Marina for boat rentals and other lake fun!

This location is conveniently located along the Seneca Lake wine trail and less than 10 minutes from downtown Geneva. Whether its family gatherings, a romantic getaway, or hanging with friends, this house is the perfect match for you!

The Space:
Our home Drift Away, nestled on the largest lake in the Finger Lakes region, will allow you to drift away from life's worries.

Parking is available above the house, with a staircase leading you down to a beautiful landscape and the most incredible view of the lake. A leveled lawn allows for family play or a picnic. The entrance leads into the main floor filled with large windows to give you lake views from all areas of the house. Adorn with hard wood floors and knotty pine walls, this house will make you feel tranquil and right at home.

The kitchen is modern with state of the art appliances, and plenty of counter space for cooking with family and friends. The living space is very plush with 3 couches, a smart TV (where you can access your own Netflix account), in addition to a DVD player. A decorative fireplace creates an ambiance perfect for cozy evenings, sharing a bottle of wine, or just lounging around. The dining table seats 6 with additional seating at the counter. There is a full, newly renovated bathroom with a shower and plenty of counter space.

The second floor of the house is up a spiral staircase leading to 2 bedrooms. The first bedroom has a queen size bed with plenty of storage. Large windows in this bedroom allow you to watch the sunrise without leaving your bed! The second bedroom offers a double bed with a closet, and an additional cot located in the closet. There is an another small living space with a smart TV as well. A small alcove with a picture perfect view of the lake provides a great place to read, relax, or play Ms. Pac-Man.

There are sliding glass doors that lead to a large deck which runs along the length of the house. Our beautiful, long dock is set up with Adirondack chairs and a table. A great dock for fishing, afternoon drinks in the sun, or just relaxing close to the water. An oversized staircase leading into the water will make swimming very safe and accessible. There is plenty of outside furniture for basking in the sun, and a grill for outdoor cooking (propane provided). After a long day of fun in the sun, you may wish to relax and unwind in the hot tub which offers scenic views as it sits facing the lake. There are kayaks and life vests of all sizes for safe lake time fun.

This home is one of the finest on Seneca Lake and will exceed all of your expectations!

Perfect Christmastime Get-away
A perfect hide-away on Seneca Lake. Everyone loves the hot tub in the cold weather and the videogame machine is a big draw. Five minutes up the road to shop at Wegmans and the kitchen is well-appointed.

A Wonderful Stay on Seneca Lake
We rented this great lakeside home while visiting our son at college and loved it. The home overlooks the lake which can be enjoyed from a private dock at the back of the house complete with deck chairs and 2 kayaks. The house had all the amenities we needed to relax with our kids - including a grill for lakeside dining when we didn't feel like going out. M We will definitely stay again!

Beautiful house with an amazing view!
Our stay at the house was fantastic! The house is wonderfully done inside with a modern amenities and looked amazing! It was spacious but still cozy and has amazing views of the lake from the downstairs and upstairs. The back patio and dock were a joy to spend time on and soak in the views. We had an excellent time and we would definitely recommend and stay again! Thanks!

Hidden Gem!
My wife and I could not have asked for a sweeter spot to stay while celebrating our 10th anniversary. The dock, the views and the hot tub were perfect. We used Roy's Marina down the road for our boat, they could not have been more accomodating. Easy access to all of the vineyards and dining spots. We will certainly return! -Matthew & Samantha

wonderful place to stay- my second time staying in the house. Weekend away with my girlfriends. Only complaint was the hot tub. It didn't look the best and smelled weird. We didn't get to enjoy it.

Great memories in a beautiful location
This house has it all! Stunning views! Beautiful home on the inside and out. My family of 4 had a ton of fun. Playing ping pong, kayaks, swimming in the lake right off the dock. We parked the car at the house and never left! Coming from Long Island and having such a fast paced life this was a great vacation to unwind. Just sitting in the Adirondack chairs at the end of the day was so peaceful. Chris was quick to respond and so helpful from day one. We would love to go back again next year. My family and friends are also interested after seeing all of our pics. What an awesome find!! Thanks again to Chris for everything!

Amazing property
My boyfriend and I booked this getaway not knowing what to expect and it definitely was one of the best trips! This house was amazing.. the view, the fire pit, the hot tub and the sunrises from the bedroom were breath taking! The wineries and breweries in the area are great! We were able to do a wine tour with a driver which was awesome. We cannot wait to come back!!

Breathtaking
A girls weekend getaway proved once again to be fantastic. This is the third time we've stayed at Drift Away and it never disappoints. Coffee on the dock early morning, fishing, kayaking, relaxing, watching sunsets and sunrises absolutely amazing. As always, Chris made the stay welcoming. Our girls weekend consists of 5 women who had no issue sharing the 1 bathroom and the accommodating sleeping quarters. The Apple TV, board games, wine and laughter along with a trip to the FLX wine festival in Watkins Glen made for a fun time. Highly recommend Drift Away, I promise you, you will certainly drift away to relaxation while staying here.
