About this property

Modern Lakefront home with wonderful views and plenty of space!

Russ’ Roost is a recently remodeled lakefront home offering magnificent views of Honeoye Lake and surrounding area. Located on the southwest shore of Honeoye Lake, this modern 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has 2,200 square feet of living space on one floor, with plenty of space for a family getaway or a gathering of friends.

The home has an inviting open concept living room, dining and kitchen area, with plenty of windows offering amazing views over the lake. Our dining table has seating for at least 6, and the kitchen bar seats 4. The connected living area comfortably seats 5 on a new sofa and chairs, as well as a large tv and gas fireplace. There is a wall-of-windows Florida room with stunning views of the lake and a second gas fireplace, along with plenty of seating. The 3 bedrooms sleep 6 (master has king bed, while other 2 bedrooms have full-sized beds), with a queen sofa-sleeper for 2 additional guests in the living room.

The level yard and large back deck open to 90 feet of direct access to Honeoye Lake, and the attached deck has plenty of seating and is fenced & gated, which is great for our younger guests. The large yard has lots of space for games, and a stamped concrete walkway from the house leads to a patio not far from a wood-burning fire pit perfect for night-time relaxation or marshmallow roasting.

Russ’ Roost includes a seasonal dock that allows space to sunbathe, fish, or load and unload passengers from boats, kayaks, canoes, or jet skis. Boat rental is available nearby. The shallow water and ability to walk in from the shore makes this a great property for families.

There is parking in the driveway and also an attached garage with parking for one vehicle. The home includes full kitchen with all necessary items (glassware, dishes, cooking/baking & utensils, etc.) as well as linens (sheets and towels), laundry room, and WiFi. All televisions are connected for Nexflix or Amazon users (along with other internet video), and two of our rooms have DVD players available. *Please note that the tvs do not have cable or local network television.*

Check in is after 3:30 p.m. and check out is at 10:00 a.m.

Located at the southern end of Honeoye Lake, you’re within a 15-minute drive to Naples and 5 minutes from the Town of Honeoye. We are located less than 10 miles from Hunt Hollow Ski Club and 15 miles from Bristol Ski Resort. We’re also within a 30-minute drive to 3 public golf courses (Lima Country Club, Parkview Fairways Golf Course and CenterPoint Golf Club). This location also makes it convenient to many restaurants, wineries, shopping, hiking and much more. The house is about 45 minutes from the Rochester Greater International Airport.

Please note that we have outside cameras by the garage that do not record and are not monitored, but are there so we can be aware of activity while no one is staying at the home. We also have motion sensors in the home as part of a security system (which is off during rental stays) and have a "smart hub" with remote sensors to monitor water leaks and prevent pipes from freezing. We respectfully request you do not disconnect this hub, as it is vital for us to maintain the home when no one is there and be notified of emergencies. We do not adjust or monitor anything while renters are present unless you notify us of a problem.

Great place

We had a great time. The place was perfect for the 4 adults and 3 children. The sunroom was a great spot for the littles to play. The kitchen was very well equipped. The town of Naples was nice. We went to a few breweries and a winery. Would highly recommend this place.

Great family getaway!

My family and I just got back from Russ's Roost and we had a great time! The house was perfect and includes everything you need - plates, towels, kitchen utensils and supplies. My kids enjoyed fishing off the dock and being able to walk into the lake with their nets. Fire pit is great and the sunroom was my personal fav!

Great property!

Overall, the home was very inviting and tastefully decorated. The bed was comfortable, and the shower was wonderful. The lake view is awesome. One thing that struck us a little funny was that the neighbor greeted us and actually provided us with the correct code to get into the garage. It just seemed odd, but we didn't have any issues during our stay. We had a couple of minor issues, but the host was quick to respond.

Happiness on Honeoye

My friend and I agree that this is the best property we have ever stayed at since we began to visit each of the Finger Lakes. So bright and open, clean and well stocked with anything you might need. We thought the labeling of storage items was genius-never saw that in other properties. Although we did not take advantage/use the deck/sunroom, we would like to say that if you have a large group or kids, you would love both areas. No question about staying there again-we would! Would also like to say that the next door neighbor- J----, was very helpful. When we arrived, the garage door code that VRBO sent wasn't current. Fortunately, we had the right one from the owner. But J---- came over and helped us navigate the entry. Thanks to J....

Honeoye Lake mini vacation

This property is beautiful and excellent for small children as they can get into the water easily and there is also a great, flat grassy area to play on by the lake. House is very well equipped and nicely kept. Can't say enough about this place except excellent all around!

Perfect Finger Lakes getaway

We recently stayed at Russ' Roost on Honeoye Lake and couldn't have had a better experience. The house was spotless, updated, had every little thing you would need plus a gorgeous view. Kirsten answering every question we had in minutes and check in and check out was easy. This is one of the best rental homes we've ever stayed in and we'll definitely be back!

Much Needed Ski Getaway

We loved staying at this property! Everything was super clean and organized. Our kids loved hanging out in the back room and playing in the snow. The house is located close to Bristol Mt. We hope to stay here again this summer to enjoy the lake.

Lovely home with plenty of room

The house was beautiful with plenty of room and an extremely well stocked kitchen. We loved the sun room, the deck, the fire pit and the dock. Our only non-positive comment is we wish we knew that the condition of the water did not encourage swimming as we are jump off the dock kind of people. We would stay again, especially over a holiday.

Lovely stay of 6 days, only slightly interrupted by neighbor dogs barking. Lots of floating seaweed around the dock, but it is rather shallow there. Wonderful presentation of instructions on the various appliances!

Why they chose this property

The NY Finger Lakes area is a beautiful area with year-round activities for everyone! From summer fun with boating, swimming and just hanging out on the lake, to the fall apple-picking and harvest season, to winter skiing and ice-fishing, it's one of my favorite places.
