Beautiful Property
This is the perfect place to stay if you’re in the area. Great location, great views, plenty of space and the house has everything you need to make it feel like home. They’ve clearly gone above and beyond and the backyard is the perfect gathering spot at the end of the day for dinner !

Great place for a group with a great view
The property was perfect for our group of eight. Mainly retired folks. Lots of space inside the house and great outdoor options in the back and front yard. View of the lake from the front porch, living room and one bedroom was amazing. Pavilion out back was very enjoyable. Game room was a hit as well. TVs were everywhere in the house. The location makes it very easy to get to the village of Watkins Glen and the many wineries and breweries surrounding the lake. We never had to drive more than 15 minutes from the house to get to where we wanted to go. We even had pizza delivered. The hosts were super responsive when contacted. We will definitely stay there again and we will recommend to others.

Lake House Magic
We had the BEST time at the lake house! It was extremely close to the center of town, which made getting places easy. The views were beautiful. The backyard and amenities were a hit! We enjoyed the game room late at night. I would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future!

Fabulous house
I have stayed at a lot of houses and this was one of the best. Not only did the house look better than the pictures, it we had the added bonus of a new pavilion that wasn’t in the pictures. This came in handy on a couple evenings it Raines. We also got to watch as a nest of robins got their wings and flew away while we were there. It was a great stay and would highly recommend this house. Sorry I forgot to post this sooner.

Family vacation
Our family had a great time at Seneca Summit! The house was wonderful - clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. There was plenty of room for all ten of us. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the front deck overlooking the lake in the evenings. The game room was a lot of fun also. Our family is already looking forward to our next vacation there!

Overall had an amazing vacation!! House was clean and well laid out for a large group. Loved the game room and the covered deck outside. There was one small issue which was handled immediately due to amazing communication from the owners. We will definitely be back!

Perfect for a big family!
The house is just lovely and so spacious. The back patio addition gave us plenty of room to hang out for meals. Michael was very responsive to texts with any questions we had. The front patio has a lovely view looking towards the lake. Everything was immaculate when we checked in. Just loved it!

Beautiful blue house
It’s my first time visiting Watkins Glen and Seneca lake. I searched for few days looking for the perfect house for our group and I came across the blue house up in a hill. The house did not disappoint, in fact it exceeded my expectation. Its so clean and beautiful. The front porch is gorgeous, I wake up early to wait for the sunrise with the Seneca lake as the backdrop. It is priceless. The backyard has lots of space to hang out, Bbq and sit by the gas fireplace. Inside the house you will have enough space for all age group. The garage is converted to a huge game room. The house is 6 minutes drive to super Walmart, 4 mins away from the Seneca harbor and 6 minute drive to Watkins Glen state park. The host Paulette is a super host, she is very quick to reply and very helpful. I am indeed fortunate to find this pretty blue house up in a hill. I will definitely come back.❤️

Like your own lake house
This is a great place for visiting the Finger Lakes! The house is in wonderful condition - clean, has the amenities you need, and a lot of space. Beautiful view from the front porch of Seneca Lake. Beds are comfortable and the living room couches are great. The location is excellent - very close to Watkins Glen and its beautiful state park. Also close to a ton of wineries, and a short drive to numerous hikes and bike trails. Would definitely come here again.
