Beautiful location, great view in a quiet area. Walking distance to a beautiful park! Easy check in & out! Only downfall was the AC units were loud at night, turning them off made it a little to warm. Over all, cute stay! Hot tub was beautiful at night looking over the lake.

We had a nice stay. Nice view overlooking the lake. Nice fire pit near the water. A little disappointed with the accuracy of the photos. Bedrooms were very small. The photos looked like they were from years ago. Brush was overgrown and less open feel then what the photos showed. Oven needs to be replaced. One stove top burner didn't work at all and really couldn't tell what temperature the oven was baking at. Some mold in the washing machine. Other then that the place was clean and generally well maintained.

Lake front

The location was great. My husband wanted to fish but couldn't use the dock it was unsafe and falling apart. The inside of house was very dated. The couch was very uncomfortable and bedrooms very small and the one door didn't even close. There were no coverings on living roomwindows so either very cold or very warm when sun was out. We were so unhappy w accommodations didn't even stay the 2nd night

Nice cozy cottage

We enjoyed our stay at this lakeside cottage. It was conveniently located with Penn Yan only a 10-15 minute drive and close to many very good Seneca Lake wineries. The only downside was that the bedrooms are small without much room to move around.

Clean and cozy

It was Christmas when i stayed so it was chilly out but the firepit by the lake was awesome, Also you get a lake view from the hot tub on the back deck which was incredible. It was private Because the lake isn't busy in the winter. Id stay again. My Dog enjoyed staring at the Geese from the firepit.

Right on the lake

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lake Dreamin property. You're literally right on the lake, and the views are stunning. There was plenty of area in the back for our dogs to roam and a big firepit right near the lake. Theres also plenty to do in the surrounding area(trails, wineries etc) in) in the surrounding area

Very happy with the location! The place we stayed was cozy and warm and inviting! Big fan of the hot tub! The only recommendation that would make this place spectacular is making some possible updates/new renovations to the house that would make it stand out/shine!

About the host

Hosted by Pat Hoke

Host profile image
I'm married with two children (a girl and a boy) and I work with a small technology company in Fairfax County VA. I'm also a partner in a family run inn that sits just 7 miles south of our cottage, overlooking Seneca Lake. I grew up in northern Virginia, outside Washington, DC, and graduated from George Mason University. My family has had a cottage on Seneca since 1930 (my grandparents), and our whole family has a great attachment to the lake. Since I was a child, it was a dream of mine to one day have a place for my own family on Seneca Lake. In 2007 we made that dream a reality, and now we would love to share this beautiful spot with you!

Why they chose this property

I love Seneca Lake and I wanted to have my own cottage, just as others in my family do. This area happens to be one of the most choice locations on the whole lake. It has easy access all year, an awesome view of the lake, lots of privacy, and plenty of land to add on in the future. It's also one of the most convenient locations to the wineries and to shopping.

What makes this property unique

This cottage sits in such a unique setting, with around 100ft of private, grassy, level lake frontage. It's also very private, with only one distant neighbor. The cottage sits on the widest part of Seneca Lake and because it faces north east, you have an extremely expansive view of the lake.
