Quaint Country-Style Cottage On Seneca Lake

Welcome to Garden Cottage! This former family home located on Edgewood Beach, on the east side of Seneca Lake, is the perfect spot for your Finger Lakes getaway. Located 7 miles from downtown Geneva, 30 miles from scenic Watkins Glen, and 45 minutes from Rochester and/or Syracuse. Seneca Lake is the largest and deepest of the Finger Lakes and boasts excellent trout fishing experiences. Our world-class wineries are within minutes of the house.

This cozy 3 bedroom home (2 queen beds, 2 twin beds) comes fully equipped. There is a refrigerator/freezer, stove, microwave, washer/dryer, coffee maker, and kitchen island with seating for 2. Dishes, pots/pans, silverware, and linens are provided.

The living room looks out onto Seneca Lake and has an entertainment center (with Direct TV) and dvd player. The front room includes a dining table that will seat 6-8 people.

A patio with chairs and a picnic table provides the perfect spot to sit and watch the sunset after your fun-filled day. Barbecue on the charcoal grill or enjoy a fire after dark in the fire pit. The public boat launch is a short drive and is visible from the cottage.

We can't begin to tell you how much we loved this home. This is our fourth time here, and each time is equally as wonderful as the past. The home is spotless, welcoming and the ideal place for a vacation rental in the Finger Lakes. Can't wait to return!

Beautiful place. Welcoming touches all around
The bedroom view was fantastic. They did so many unexpected little extras including a candy bowl for Halloween which my girls loved. Everything that you needed was on hand. A fantastic place to stay.
