We stayed here for a 50th birthday girls trip. We all enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The kitchen area was large enough to accommodate all of us, which was great for meals. The location is close to several wineries as well. The listing does state that there are a lot of stairs, but our only comment there would be that the lighting could be a little better both at the front and back of the house. Maybe a motion light? Our host was quick to respond to my questions prior to arriving too. Overall we loved this house and would definitely come back!
We had a great stay at the lake house. My sister and her husband along with my grown sons and their partners gathered there to celebrate the memory of our parents who had grown up on Seneca. The house had everything we needed for a fun stay. We fished, we swam, we cooked fun meals together, sat around the fire pit, enjoyed the hottub and watched movies and baseball. What more do you need? There was lots of room, the kitchen was well outfitted for cooking, and the house had everything we needed (like TP, hand soap, towels and so on). We even found worms in the grass that the small-mouth bass were hungry for! Yes it is a lake house and shows the wear and tear that comes with that, but there was nothing to keep us from having a great stay!!
House needs basic maintenance. Steps were steep (as described) but railings outside were not secure. Layout was strange and seemed to be 2 separate homes with plenty of individual space but not a great common area for everyone to gather comfortably. Outside space had limited shaded spots (one small deck on the lid- level but no umbrellas or areas to sit in shade.
The view of Seneca Lake was lovely. The house has a large amount of stairs. Three flights going from the parking down to the house and three flights from the house to the lake. There is only one bedroom on the main floor. This house may be fine for young groups. It does not work well for anyone older or really young children. When you come from the livingroom the stair to the playroom/game room is a sharp left straight down the stairs and not safe for young children. It would probably work well for young groups since it has two kitchens and offers separate spaces. The home does need some work on the outside railings and on the deck. A simple fix of the broken locks on both gates on the deck and the hand rails coming into the house. It has potential to be a nice spot but needs some care to make it worth the rental price. I think with some repairs and thought to safety features it could be a nice spot with a beautiful view.
The house is in a great location but need some updates. The futons in the basement are completely unsuitable for sleeping; one had metal pieces sticking up and the other collapsed when someone sat on it. The queen sleeper sofa in the loft is very old and the mattress sagged so much in the middle that our teens had to take it out and put it on the floor. I would confirm that these problems have been addressed before renting. There was also a sewer smell intermittently near the front of the deck.
The property was clean, a great space for our party and a great location for the sightseeing we did. The house needs some attention to detail. Examples: Lightbulbs in lamps and lighting need to be replaced, all batteries in clocks were dead but our cell phones served that purpose. We were there during winter but discussed how the dock, fire pit and outdoor space would be great during the summer/early fall.
Girls weekend! Great time great place great location
The floor plan of the house is weird. Also furnitures could be better/newer. Lights were not enough
Great property, convenient to wineries and Geneva. A little tricky getting in the driveway on first arrival, but once you are used to it, not an issue. Huge house with lots of room and two kitchens. Misunderstanding with property owner was quickly resolved through prompt communication and timely responses. We had a great weekend!
This was a family gathering for Thanksgiving as all of our children have moved to NY State and our son was newly employed in the FLX so only the day off. The CONS dampened what could have been a great experience. -We called ahead as we have a daughter in a wheelchair and the listing indicates stairs. We were told there were 7 stairs. We could handle 7 stairs so I made the reservation only to find out the week of our arrival that in reality there were 21 stairs. We were severely limited in getting out into the community by having to carry her up and down 21 stairs. -The hot tub was something we were looking forward to. The hot tub was not hot when we arrived. We texted our contact with no response. We reset the breaker and the water started to warm. Again, during the night the breaker tripped so the water cooled. The second time we reset the breaker it held but by then we had been unable to use the hot tub for 2 out of the 4 days we were there. We did receive a call back but the information was not helpful. -The unit had not been well cleaned. The examples: kitchen had debris and the coffee maker had a moldy basket of grounds. The upstairs bedroom had medication on the floor. -The listing says an ice maker. There is an ice maker in one fridge but our whole stay only made 5 ice cubes and was not in operation when we arrived. It required we hunt down the bin and set the maker to on. We ended up having to go into Geneva for ice. -The communication was deplorable. I am not sure Evolve exists. Very minimal contact or information, poor website. VERY delayed response. I understand the owner is out of the country but email knows no time zone. -The entertainment in the basement is in very poor shape. PROS -large space with good bathrooms (one full bathroom is in the kitchen) and comfy beds. -Plenty of space to have privacy/quiet time.
