The Neighborhood:

Drift Away is located in the heart of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, just 10 minutes from downtown Geneva, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Roy’s Marina, and Port’s Café. The home sits just below another property but remains peaceful and private. This is a quiet area with year-round residents, so we kindly ask guests to observe quiet hours from 10 PM to 7 AM.



Getting Around:

A car is highly recommended for exploring the area. Private taxis/car services and private wine tours are available.

➡️ Please note: We provide cooking basics, with the exception of oil at this time—it will be included in the future.

➡️ A Pack ’n Play is available BY REQUEST ONLY and provided free of charge. Please let us know in advance if you’d like one so we can have it ready for your arrival.

➡️ Quiet hours are from 10 PM to 7 AM per town ordinance. This is a peaceful area with year-round residents—please be respectful during your stay.

➡️ Only one car may be parked in the driveway. Additional vehicles can be parked at the top of the road where indicated.

➡️ Boats may not be docked at the property.

➡️ Train Crossing: A nearby train occasionally passes (~1–2 times per day). It's brief and typically quiet, but always stop and look both ways when crossing the tracks.

➡️ Guests must sign Get RED-y Vacations’ guest rental agreement prior to check-in.

➡️ A security camera is located at the entrance of the property for safety and monitoring of arrivals.

➡️ Some amenities may be seasonal and availability can vary depending on weather and time of year.

    What a gem! The view of the sunsets and sunrises across the expansive lake was extraordinary! So many fun amenities - jacuzzi, PacMan old style arcade console, great patio with extended deck, well equipped kitchen. Great hikes close by. My only complaint was the two bedrooms were on the second floor and the one bathroom is downstairs via a spiral staircase. Not the most convenient. Everything else was exceptional.

    Great place for a lakeside getaway, and an excellent location to access the area. Property was clean, and as described in the listings. All communications with owner/manager were detailed and very prompt. Absolutely satisfied with the overall booking and trip. 100 % recommend this property for a couples get away.

    A beautiful home with an amazing dock for easy swimming and kayaking. Kayaks provided. We spent many hours sitting on chairs at the end of the dock watching birds including bald eagles, osprey and great blue herons. The sunsets and sunrises were amazing. The kitchen had everything needed for cooking and the beds were super comfortable. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

    Everything was great except it was cold, especially in the morning when we woke up to 59 degrees in the rental.
