From our wooded location in the heart of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, enjoy the beautiful lake and sunset views from our totally rebuilt 700 + sq. ft. deck. Or enjoy a glass of wine on our lower deck off the downstairs bedrooms, while watching the boats on the water or your crew play basketball, volleyball or pickle ball on our 40' x 60' blacktop play area.

This five bedroom, three bath year-round home sleeps 8 - 10 and features a high ceiling great room with wood floors and a fireplace. Two bedrooms and two baths are conveniently located on the main floor. Upstairs includes a large bedroom/playroom and sitting loft, spectacular lake views, which overlooks the great room. The walkout ground floor features two bedrooms, a full bath, and a family room.

The fully stocked kitchen is ready for the chefs among you and has all the appliances, dishes, cutlery, and glasses you will need. The house has central air conditioning & ceiling fans in all rooms.

Our play area is private to the few houses on our private road and is also a great place for the kids to ride their scooters, play games, or just run wild. Our beach access is a short 300-yard walk downhill and has a deck for you to enjoy sitting at the water’s edge.

We are located in Hector, NY, just eight miles north of Watkins Glen, on the east side of Seneca Lake. Our community is filled with wineries, breweries, restaurants, small shops, hiking trails and waterfalls. The vibrant college town of Ithaca is a short distance away.

After a day visiting the 11 wineries within a few miles, or hiking in Watkins Glen or the Finger Lakes National Forest, escape to this quiet getaway to enjoy a glass of New York wine on the deck, read a book. visit with friends, or roast marshmallows at our side yard fire pit.

    We had good communication with the host. The property was very clean and well kept. Plenty of room for the 10 of us. Well stocked with basic needs. Excellent location for the Seneca wine trail. We would highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

    Host was a wonderful communicator, made sure our check in and check out was smooth and easy. House is beautiful, very clean and plenty of room. There were ten of us. We didn't spend much time outside as it was too cold but the deck with a view is wonderful!Parking is a little tricky if you have more than two cars, just fyi. Water had a sulfur smell at first but after running it between cooking and showers it was fine. Would definitely recommend it to others!

    Paul was a wonderful host, very responsive and available if needed. There was an issue with road paving closing down the main roadway to the house, and he was super accommodating. House was a wonderful location and super relaxing, had everything we needed for a great weekend!

    We had our family get together at this beautiful Chalet. 6 adults and 2 children. There was an unusual heat wave during our stay so we didn’t spend much time at the pickleball court but is was nice. The A/C worked fine and kept us cool. The huge upper deck was great for sitting outdoors when it cooled down. We found a hidden gem close to the property called “Here” which serves breakfast and lunch Fri- Mon. The only thing I want to mention is the small parking area at the bottom of a narrow driveway. We had 3 cars so we ended up having to either back in or back out when parking at the bottom. Also the private beach is not adjacent to the property but that was not a problem for us since it was simply too hot to use. We had a great time at this clean and well stocked property.

    This chalet was the ideal base for our bachelorette weekend in Hector's Wine Country. The property was precisely as advertised, and we found everything to be in perfect order. Paul was great with communication leading up to our stay, and fortunately, we didn't need to reach out during our trip. The self check-in was particularly convenient, especially with multiple people arriving at different times. We loved the stunning views of Seneca Lake from the property and only wish we could have extended our stay beyond the weekend.

    Lovely location close to many wineries and an easy drive to Watkins Glen or Ithaca. Plenty of beds, seating and a large kitchen. Enjoyed the fire pit. We had two issues (water and plumbing) which were inconvenient for us, but Paul was easy to communicate with and quick to address them.

    While the house is accurate according to the listing, what is not visible is the sewer smell being covered up with household cleaning products (smell possibly emanating from the septic tanks). In addition there were an excessive amount of gnat like fruit flies, even in the bedroom.

    We absolutely loved our stay at this property! The location was wonderfully quiet, and we made great use of the tennis, basketball, and pickleball courts. The property was easy to find, impeccably clean, and incredibly welcoming. The hosts were very responsive and communicated clearly, making our stay even more enjoyable. The property itself was massive, offering plenty of space for our family to spend quality time together. We highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a peaceful and spacious retreat.
