Overall a great house! We had a great stay. We enjoyed the hot tub, the lake front access, and fire pit. It was very quiet and peaceful. The new couches are very comfortable. The bedrooms are tiny, but were adequate for us.

The hot tub and the view are the best things about this property. The interior of the house was comfortable and provided exactly what we needed. The hosts were very accommodating in allowing us to bring our dog. We enjoyed how close this stay was to my sister’s wedding venue and made it extra convenient for us. The old house had charm and even though the bedrooms were tight we made it work and enjoyed the beautiful wood floors and spectacular window view from the living room. I would absolutely return to this property the next time we plan on visiting the area.

Perfect location on the Lake…. Close to many amenities…We were celebrating our anniversary, so the cottage was just what we needed. Quiet and Lake Front property was what we were looking for and the hot tub was a bonus.However, property stated they could fit 6 people…. Our opinion is 4 people max. Bedrooms are tight with little space for your gear.We will not hesitate to rent this cottage again for just the 2 of us.

The property is beautiful, lots of space. We brought our kayaks, easy in and out of the water. The view is incredible. The cottage is super clean and very comfortable. Penn Yan is a quick drive in and there are lots of dog friendly restaurants in the area. Great food, great people. Our family really enjoyed our visit here!!!

Hi Kerry, thank you for the wonderful review and very glad to hear that you a had nice vacation. And thank you for sharing that nice photo of the view down towards the dock. We literally replaced the dock a week before you arrived! The dock was damaged back in the spring due to unprecedented high water levels and we had to wait until the water levels to returned to normal before we could get it fixed. We also spent two full days trimming vegetation from over the deck, on the bank and around the boathouse, plus some other landscaping in the yard. Your photo will help to inform future guests that the dock has been repaired and that any overgrown vegetation that sprouted up in the spring has also been trimmed back. Thank you and we hope you'll stay with us again! - Patrick

Cute little cottage by the lake with awesome view . We enjoyed the hot tub and the stars at night. This unit is priced at the lower end and care has been taken to present a very clean space . That being said a little TLC and more comfortable sofas and cushions would make this a fantastic place.

Hi Cheryl, thank you very much for the kind words and glad to hear that you had a nice vacation. Per your comment on the sofas (thank you BTW), a brand new sofa and love seat have been ordered and will arrive at the cottage the first week of Aug. Again, thank you and we hope you'll stay with us again in the future (would love your thoughts on the new sofa and love seat!)

We appreciate all feedback from our guests, which helps us determine what needs attention. We're pleased that you enjoyed your visit and we hope that you will return again in the future. The only thing that is not negotiable is the security camera, which is on the exterior for several reasons - security, monitoriung traffic to the cottage to avoid being a party house, seasonal monitoring of snowfall [knowing when to plow and shovel], and monitoring contractors doing work there. We do not monitor areas inside, and we do not monitor areas outside where guests have an expectation of privacy. We provide advance notice of this in our communications with guests. Our town does monitor rental properties for traffic and posssible noise. We in turn are expected to follow their guidelines so as not to disturb others in the community.

The home has nice location, quiet town, but is located next to research station which has activity/lights. Kept blinds closed on that side of the house. Small bedrooms with uncomfortable beds. Floors are uneven in hallway, floor grate for heat when crossing into living room- made dog afraid to cross over so had to pick her up each time. Bathroom is tight, but does have washer/dryer unit- soap drawer for washer and rubber around door was moldy. Did not use hot tub, too many mosquitoes and need to trim back ivy on deck area. Floor unit ac helped, but bedrooms were stuffy since they are closed off from air flow- ceiling fans helped.

Patrick’s properties are lovely. It was well appointed, impeccably clean and had an unrivaled view of Seneca Lake. If you are big and tall people like my partner Mike and I, however, you may want to choose one of his other properties. The bedrooms were just too small for us to navigate in. Note that it is next door to an unusual Navy research station of barges with barbed wire surrounding the property. Not at all disruptive in any way and a curiosity to watch, just a bit unnerving when we came in that night and didn’t know what it was with its “Do not trespass” signs. Also note that the dock you see in the pictures is not currently in existence, likely dashed apart by the difficult winter and awaiting repair. That said, I am still a big fan of Pat’s properties. Cleanliness is important to me and it is exceptional always. And the stunning view here of the lake is like the helm of a ship on the water. Simply dashing.

Hi Lindajean, thank you so much for staying with us again for for sharing some feedback on your experience. Just an FYI, regarding the dock, as of July 10th 2026, a brand new dock was put in place. During that time we also trimmed back all of the overgrown vegetation over the deck, on the bank and near the boathouse. We also trimmed back everything in the yard, and we have a brand new sofa and love seat arriving the first week of Aug. Thanks again!

Quaint cottage on the Lake with beautiful view looking south. Fully stocked kitchen. Very clean inside. Furniture could be updated. Bedrooms are very small. Host very responsive and easy to communicate with. Listing includes AC however, it is a portable unit in the living room that does not cool the bedrooms sufficiently. We were there on an unusually hot weekend in May and were very uncomfortable at night. Each bedroom does have a ceiling fan. There is a hot tub on the deck but we did not use it. The pictures of the outside area, specifically the dock are inaccurate as the dock was missing boards and not usable. Shed and bank very overgrown with weeds. Great location as it is in the middle of the lake with Geneva to the North and Watkins Glen to the south. Many great wineries both directions.

Cozy cottage with everything you need. Amazing view of the lake and sunrise and nature. Cottage was clean and thoughtfully stocked with games, books, cookware, extra blankets and pillows. Best thing was the hot tub. Sitting in there at night with a ten degree temp and a light snow was relaxing and magical. We were lucky enough to view the full moon which I dont think was included in the amenities but was a nice touch. A perfect home base for enjoying the wine/breweries and all local restaurants. Highly recommend and plan to return to enjoy during summer months.

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.
