About this property

Spacious Log Home Overlooking Canandaigua Lake! Pet Friendly!

(Disclosure: We cater to families and laid back vacationers. If you are looking for a party house, we would not be your destination. We want to maintain a peaceful and enjoyable environment for our guests as well as our neighbors).

Welcome to Lakeview Lodge! Canandaigua's best kept secret! This spacious rustic log home is tucked away on a private drive and sits on 3 1/2 wooded acres overlooking the beautiful and scenic crystal clear waters of Canandaigua Lake. On the main and second floor this home boasts 4 spacious bedrooms and 3 full baths with 1 half bath, 2 large living areas,, and a spacious newly remodeled kitchen. With an additional queen size sofa bed in one of the living areas that make this a home perfect for a large family. There is also a full second kitchen in the basement along with a pool table room and also a great teen hang out room with IKEA furniture.
After a fun day at the lake or taking in one of the many local wineries or breweries enjoy a relaxing drink and take in the beautiful lake views on one of the two furnished covered porches. For cool evenings enjoy sitting on a beautiful flagstone patio with stone fire pit overlooking the lake and enjoy the breeze under the canopy of beautiful 60 foot trees.
For your furry four-legged family members their is a fenced side yard that will keep them close to you. As for the kids there is plenty of land to roam with a ravine and seasonal stream to work out all that excess energy. We are on a private drive with only two other houses and minimal traffic.
The gourmet kitchen has all of the amenities that you need to cook tasty meals including a commercial size grill for outdoor cooking.
If you don't feel like cooking there are plenty of wonderful restaurants and the New York Wine and Culinary School within five minutes of our home.
There is lake access to Onanda Park only a few miles away from our home which boasts areas for swimming, fishing, tennis, and hiking with waterfalls.
In the winter months after a long day of skiing at Bristol Mountain (only 11 miles away) wind down in the eight person Jacuzzi or sit by a crackling fire in one of the four custom wood burning fireplaces throughout the home, including the kitchen.
We are thrilled that you are considering a stay with us at Lakeview Lodge and look forward to spoiling you and making your stay a memorable one!
Although we do not have private lake access our house is just a short drive to several areas where there is lake access. One is only 1.2 miles from our front door and the other is 6 miles south of us! We are also only a short five minute drive to the pier where you can rent canoes, paddleboards, etc.
(7 night minimum is required during summer months)
Please feel free to call owners directly with any questions that you may have at 704-966-7221.
Sincerely,
Sherrie Anderson
Owner Lakeview Lodge

The property sits back and you can see the lake from the front door.It was a picturesque view with the fireplace blazing and deer walking through the yard. It is enormous and the interior design of the place is amazing! The amenities are wonderful. Its everything you need for a long getaway or a group looking for a weekend stay.

Wonderful family vacation
Wonderful stay! The large house accommodated our family of 10 and 2 dogs with no issues! Very spacious - plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen as we cooked nearly all dinners and ate at the long dinner table. The fenced-in side yard was a unique feature which was very handy for our dogs! The hot tub was new and clean and we used it many nights! The fire pit is also huge (12 chairs) and we had at least 4 fires while staying. Thanks for everything!!

Perfect fit for our family!
We had a great weeklong family vacation in this beautiful rustic yet modern cabin/home! My husband and I enjoyed the spacious primary suite/bathroom while our son and daughter-in-law stayed in the other king-size bedroom with their 4 kids (9, 7, 5 and almost 3!). Our son and his girlfriend occupied the other 2 double bedrooms. AND we got to bring our 2 dogs as an added bonus. The house was in quick driving distance to some great hikes and wineries, but we ate in every night and used the well-equipped kitchen to prepare some delicious meals. Thank you Sherrie for "lending" us your home.

There was 9 of us down for a biannual golf trip. The Lodge is in a great location and central to so many things. There is a lot of space throughout the Lodge. The owner Sherrie is great and can’t be more accommodating. The kitchen is beautiful and with such a large dining room table everyone can eat together. We would come back here in a heartbeat!!!

We had a lovely stay at this property. The owner was responsive and lovely. All the little "extras" were so nice to have! The kitchen was huge and we enjoyed all the extra little relaxing spaces around the house. The outside on this property is second to none. We loved the hot tub and the view to the lake is breath taking! We will stay again!

Fall Retreat
Our extended family of nine (and two dogs) enjoyed a November break here. The house had ample space for everyone to spread out and do their own thing. The house has four fireplaces that make it ultra cosy! The hot tub was a bonus on cold mornings and clear nights. The host was extremely accommodating for our departure and arrival times and even ensured we had the right equipment with which to cook our turkey by shipping a new roasting pan. A very enjoyable stay with lots of space for the dogs to romp and roam!

Pros and Cons
Some quick info about the home: 3 bedrooms upstairs with 7/8 beds and 2 baths. Downstairs has 2 living rooms and 1 half bath, along with the kitchen and dining room. The home is situated on top of a hill with a view of the lake Pros: - lots of beds, - nice quiet location, - nice view of Lake Canandaigua, - great communication with owner who strived to make the “cons” right we mentioned right, - pet friendly, - toys for kids - close to town - lots of deer around to enjoy looking at every morning Cons: - this is an older home so you will hear everything going on throughout the house. It needs a lot of updating - the home was absolutely FILTHY when we got there. Owner of cleaning company came out and had the home cleaned but it was still very dirty and in need of a deep deep cleaning - carpets haven’t been shampooed in a long time, mold/mildew in bathrooms, thick layer of dust throughout the house, dirty refrigerator and kitchen - some equipment didn’t work, the electricity for the stove stopped working so the oven didn’t work, missing remotes for the televisions - exposed electrical work throughout the house (dangerous for little kids) - stink bugs mostly in the Master bedroom, apparently this is normal for being so close to the lake - a lot of windows do not open properly - master bedroom AC did not work (very hot room) - small master bathroom shower - some of the dining room seating is broken so we were limited on eating together at the table

Family Time Back East
The location of the Cabin was perfect for us, and we loved all the dog-friendly amenities for our 4-legged kids. Mu husband and I could take off right from the cabin for long road bike rides on quiet country roads, while our parents could drive 10 minutes to a wonderful park at the north end of Canandaigua Lake to walk by the lake-shore. We loved sitting on the lawn each morning enjoying the view of the lake, and being able to throw the ball for our dogs. We also loved how quiet the place was, as that is critical for us. We cooked in all but 1 night during our stay, as the renovated kitchen was just wonderful, and we also loved lighting a fire in one of the fireplaces during some of the evenings when Fall was in the air. Sherrie was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was incredibly responsive, and even ordered a few things for the house that we needed, as soon as we asked for them. She is one of the best, if not the best, owner I've worked with when booking through this site! Thank you Sherrie!

About the host

Hosted by SHERRIE LYNN ANDERSON

Host profile image
We were originally from Texas but moved here in 2001 and fell in love with the crystal clear lakes, rolling hills, and especially the four seasons and all the activities that are available here for all of them. We have 9 children and have poured our heart into this place and love sharing this special place with others. We hope that you will feel the Southern charm and hospitality that we want to share with you while you are there. Kids are completely welcomed and so is your dogs. Being a big family we realized that it is not easy to find places that can accommodate a large family or multiple families so we are glad to offer this spacious home to your family. Please let us know if you have any questions. We would love to tell you all about the area!
Blessings,
The Anderson Family

Why they chose this property

The view..the view...the view! And of course the log home has such a warm and homey feel. It's like bringing a little of the Adirondacks to the Finger Lakes! There is also more to do than you can imagine and wonderful shopping and dining.

What makes this property unique

There is nothing like waking up to beautiful sunrises peaking through the tall mature trees and sitting in the yard watching our kids play and explore. Love that we are hidden but only minutes away from Canandaigua's beautiful and historic main street!
