5 Star Stay

I recently stayed at a Seneca Lake cottage that truly deserves its five-star rating! The modern decor and fantastic lake views made it the perfect getaway. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and provided thoughtful touches, from local treats, to pet cookies, to helpful recommendations. The location was serene yet conveniently close to wine trails and everything Seneca Lake has to offer. Every detail was attended to, making my stay both relaxing and memorable. I can't recommend this cottage highly enough—it's a hidden gem!

Lake Seneca Fun

This cottage was perfect for our friends and us-including our sweet dog,Duffy. The house & furnishings were comfortable and we loved sitting on the deck. The neighborhood was so quiet and close to wonderful restaurants and quaint towns. We loved it all and hope to return.

Lovely setting

The house was very nice, it had a great view and was very clean. In fact, there was an employee of the FLPP at the house inspecting the job that the cleaning company had done to make sure they did a good job and that they did everything they were supposed to do.

Nice

The house was very clean and bathroom and kitchen were recently remodeled. The location of the house is very close to the 3 brothers winery, which is our favorite! The view is amazing and enjoyed sitting on the doc. Only thing I would change is the decorations- very old and a lot. But everything was beautiful and we enjoyed our stay.

Great++ location, bug infestation, transaction not managed through Vrbo

PRO'S: - location is great, right on the water - easy keypad check-in and check-out - strong wifi signal - cable TV - clean, modern kitchen appliances - clean bathrooms and kudos to whoever installed the tiles CONS: - Serious carpenter ant infestation. They were crawling on us in bed and were in our luggage when we got home. Lake houses naturally have more spiders and bugs, but this was another level. - Likewise, the backyard isn't mowed (it's clover instead of grass) and it was covered in bees. Two of us were stung walking to the dock, which I mention for anyone with a serious bee allergy. - Through the front door, you're greeted by aggressive signage/literature ("don't this, don't that, you must do this, etc.") and the entire place feels staged and uncomfortable—literally uncomfortable with hard, mattress-in-a-box beds and one scratchy towel per guest wrapped in cling wrap "for our protection." Our family rented 4 properties within a mile of one another and the others were much more cheerful, homey, comfortable experiences. NOTE: After you reserve this property, all communications and transactions take place off the Vrbo platform, which was not explained beforehand. The management company makes you complete a personal data form and send a copy of your ID via email (not secure) and supply credit card info over the phone to some stranger (also not secure and most companies don't even allow anymore for their own protection against liability). Bonus: One lady manually entered my card number incorrectly and insisted it was declined. The bank said no attempted charge had been made so I had to play phone tag and get someone else there to process the card. Also the trip itself is not managed in Vrbo; you have to download a separate app that has your info preloaded (once again, not secure). That said, if you don't mind carpenter ants crawling on you, an unkempt lawn full of bees and the inconvenient, insecure experience outside the Vrbo platform, then you really can't beat this property's location on the water.

Fantastic Lakeview Property on Seneca

Our group of four really enjoyed our stay at Sail Away. The property had everything we needed and the location was close to some of our favorite wineries to visit. The access to the water was great for both kayaking and to take in the views. Highly recommend.

Overall great stay

While the house stank like Clorox when we came in I could at least appreciate that it was clean. The decor was very old fashioned but the house had everything we needed and check in and check out was a breeze! We absolutely loved the private dock to enjoy the lake. And the beautiful view of the lake from the bedroom. I would stay there again. Thanks!

Ideal Getaway

The property was clean and well maintained. The rooms appeared exactly as they were described on the website. Surprisingly the kitchen was actually larger than it appeared which was nice. The view from the desk was amazing and the perfect set up for relaxing with wine in the evening. The only item to maybe repair would be the side screen door which didn't close all the way unless you sort of lifted the handle so it would catch. There were a few windy days during our stay so you needed to make sure the door latch caught otherwise the door would have constantly swung open. Otherwise it was a great place to unwind and relax.

Great week at Seneca Lake

Our low key, covid-19 vacation was just right. The house was clean and had everything you needed. I would suggest the owners pair down the knickknacks and dishes so there is room to put your food and stuff in the cabinets and on dressers. Otherwise, it was a great location, close to Geneva, breweries/wineries, and Watkins Glen. We hung out at the house and had access to a row boat, canoe, and kayak which was great. Waking up to enjoy a cup of coffee overlooking the lake was so relaxing. I would highly recommend staying here. The kitchen was small but it is a vacation house. It was nice to have use of a grill. The tv needs to be replaced due to some of the pixels burning out but it was fine for our purposes. We brought our fire stick which was helpful since they have only basic cable and my daughter could watch a movie in the morning before we got up. We also brought our bikes and were able to bike to a local farm stand for fresh pastries and produce. The roads are quiet so I felt safe biking and walking with my daughter. Overall, I would highly recommend staying here.
