About this property

Moondance | 4 Bed, 3 Bath

Moondance is a spacious, 4 bedroom home on the west shores of Seneca Lake.  Named for the view of the moon coming up over the lake and dancing on the waters; Moondance is a wonderful place to relax and unwind.

Moondance is along a  dead-end lake road, in a small lake front neighborhood, making it a perfect, quiet spot to getaway.  The road is a pleasant place to walk and very family friendly.  The home has 2 floors, each with their own living space and entry. There is a full kitchen on each floor, but the two living spaces can be used as one as well.

Pulling up to Moondance, you will find see the large English-style stone patio area outside of the house.  Walking in the front door, you will enter the spacious entry area.  To the left is the formal Dining room and walking through the Dining Room, you'll access the Kitchen. The Kitchen is fully furnished and has all the amenities you'll need for cooking those great family style meals.

Directly inside the entry area, you walk into the Living Room.  The Living Room has a wall of glass patio doors that open out onto the deck and overlook the lake.  A great space for that indoor/outdoor living feel!  The Living room is quite comfortably furnished with leather couches and chairs as well as a giant settee to relax on in front of the fireplace.  The fireplace is wood burning and adds the perfect ambience to chilly evenings...or just for fun.  There is a large screen TV in the Living Room as well as a game cabinet.

The Master bedroom is off of one end of the Living room and is very spacious.  The Master bedroom has a King size bed, an attached bath (with shower) and large glass doors that open out onto the deck.  This room has a perfect view of the moon when it rises over the lake or those gorgeous Seneca lake sunrises. You'll want to awaken early enough to see it!

On the opposite end of the Living Room are Bedrooms 2 & 3.  Bedroom 2 has a Queen size bed.  Bedroom 3 has a Queen as well and is almost considered a second 'Master bedroom' with it's own private, screened in porch/sitting area plus a wood burning fireplace. Bedroom 2 and 3 share a full bath with a shower.

On the lower level, you'll find a full second Kitchen, Family Room area, Bedroom 4 and a Full bath.  Bedroom 4 has a Queen bed with a full bath right next door to the bedroom. The bath includes a Tub/shower.  In the Family room, there is a futon, TV, and a table for playing games.  This house is the perfect spot for 2 families or couples to stay if you're wanting to spend time together, but have your own spaces.  The upstairs and the lower level can both be self contained with separate outside entrances, and each having a kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom.
The Lower level opens out onto a small covered patio area which is where you will go to access the lake.  From the small patio, you can walk down the stairs to the lake side deck and lakefront.  The house has private beach area and a private dock for guest use.

Wine Weekend
We hiked Watkins Glen. Walked thru the Windmill Farmers Market. Toured wineries and breweries along Keuka and Seneca Lakes. Coffee on the deck, dinners at the table and lots of laughs in the great room

Great house right on the lake. The views of the lake from the veranda are unmatched. Quiet neighborhood. Close to fabulous hiking and some of the best vineyards in the Finger Lakes.

Beautiful home...but
The home was wonderful for my extended family to gather & enjoy our time together. Unfortunately, the downstairs is damp smelling. The folks were very responsive when contacted. They stated that the mini split downstairs acted like a dehumidifier when changed to that setting. That change helped some; however, there was still an issue. The main floor was spacious. The deck & dock were very nice. If the dampness was taken care of, I would stay here again.

Family Reunion
As three couples in their seventies, who have traveled extensively, we were very pleased to be able to find a home available with bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate us all. However, the pictures, online description and reviews were not accurate. The third bathroom was actually in the finished basement. Unfortunately, it was a musty, damp basement. (Not worth a 5***** review!). Also, there was no private, outdoor seating area off the basement. One couple used the basement bathroom, but no one would spend time in the damp basement. Please update your reviews and description to inform people what to expect. Also, as stated above, we have vacationed in many houses and this was not a 5***** clean house. We may have left it cleaner than when we arrived!

Great location!
We were so impressed with the rooms and property! Very well kept. Really nice interior. But we did not expect the beautiful view of the lake. An added bonus.. Thank you to the hosts for their kind response and willingness to accommodate whatever we need. We will definitely stay here again.

Great house in great location
This home was everything we expected and more. It was very clean and was the perfect size for our group. We loved hanging out on the deck in the evenings with the fire pit. We needed more gas tanks for the grill and when I messaged the property manager she responded right away and had the tanks to us first thing the next day.

Great Get Away
Wonderful property, finely appointed, the perfect place for our relaxing long weekend away with friends and family. Tucked away on a quiet dead end road we could not have asked for anything more suited to our needs. Well appointed kitchen, beautiful deck and dock for relaxing evenings, close to some of our favorite wineries, wonderful comfortable beds - this property has been renovated into a gem for folks to experience. I hope all who come after enjoy and respect the property for what it offers.

Loved Moondance
Seven retired women, highschool friends, totally enjoyed our stay at Moondance. The house was impeccable, with comfortable furniture and beds. The well-equipped kitchen provided everything we needed and we were happy for the supplies provided by our host. The view of the lake was amazing and we made a point to watch the sunrises. The only issue we found was the toilet in the shared bathroom that rocked. I have been renting vacation homes for over 20 years and I will say this is in the top 3 I have rented. We all talked about returning to Moondance in the future. Thank you !

The accommodations met our expectations and the view was beautiful and so serene..
The view was beautiful and the home was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate three couples. We had space to congregate inside and out yet we had our privacy. The neighborhood was quiet. The only negative was that one couple stated a blanket could not be used because it was not clean. All three couples agreed that they would definitely return to Moondance on Lake Seneca.

Great House in Quiet, Lakefront Neighborhood
The Pros: House was large and spacious and very well laid out for our group of five older adult girlfriends. Driveway was great for one car. Keyless entry worked well, though buttons did stick a bit. Kitchen was a dream with everything we possibly needed. A/C was needed and worked great in late August. Beds were comfy and bedrooms were large. Lots of hangers, always a bonus. Washer and dryer were great, too. Fire pit and bbq had full propane tanks and extra, if needed. Two of three bathrooms had hair dryers, so bring one along. Ironing board and irons were provided. We lived on the large deck and loved it. Lots of outdoor seating. Two one-man kayaks (but only one paddle), one canoe, and a pedalboat were on-site, super fun and easy to launch right from our own backyard onto the warm, calm lake. New life vests and several nice beach chairs were provided for lounging on the private dock. Cons: We realize the house is on a lake, but the lower level inside was very musty and damp. If you have allergies or respiratory issues, be aware. A dehumidifier could help. Bring your own beach towels. None are provided. We thought we'd use the screened porch to avoid the bugs, but the lake view is impacted by the solid lower walls and we could not find any lamps or lights on the porch.

Beautiful Lake Home!
We had 9 adults and a 11 month old staying on Seneca Lake. The home was well stocked and met all our needs. One of the best lake homes we have ever rented. We got a boat for a few days and did a fishing trip and hiked-biked & did wine tours. So much to do in the area ! Only one suggestion, the ladder on the dock needs replaced. We hope to be back with our family very soon!

Great Family Vacation!
Our family really enjoyed our stay here! A very pleasant week was enjoyed by all of us!The weather was not always the best but we found fun things to do to keep us busy! One night there was a very strong storm..The electricity was out for many hours. The great thing was that the house has a generator! Perfect! The house is large, clean, and very well stocked. Great location. We would definitely consider staying there again.

Peaceful and Breathtaking
This was our first time in Seneca Lake and we selected the best property. It was on the lake with access. It was spacious enough to have privacy when you wanted it. It was within easy driving distance to the beach at the State Park and restaurants and shopping.
