About this property
Bonskeid House: Relaxing Seneca Lake Getaway!
Located minutes from the award-winning Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyards, Bonskeid House is nestled on 20 private acres on Seneca Lake's west side. Enjoy a tree-lined drive down a private road to the house, which overlooks the lake, and continue down the tram to explore 360 feet of waterfront. Come enjoy beauty of this Finger Lakes gem!
Upon entering the front door, you will find a well-appointed living room with a propane fireplace with logs. An open floorplan leads to the dining room, large kitchen with bar seating, and an expansive deck overlooking the lake.
The main level has a primary bedroom with a full bath and access to the outdoor deck. There is also a second bedroom with a half bath. The lower level is ideal for a second family or friends. It includes two bedrooms each with full baths, a living room, bar area with mini-kitchen, and its own private entrance.
At the lakefront, the walk-in beach area is ideal for launching the provided canoe, kayaks, and standup paddle boards. In the evening, gather around the fire pit or sit on the end of the dock and watch the moon rise and shimmer on the lake.
Bonskeid House is right in the heart of wine country, minutes from a variety of unique dining experiences including Tabora Farm & Winery, F.L.X. Wienery and Belhurst Castle. Ten minutes to the south is downtown Watkins Glen with dining and shopping, “The Glen” automobile racetrack, and Watkins Glen State Park where you can hike the gorge trail. Twenty minutes to the north is Geneva's Spray ground for the children, and the Finger Lakes Visitor Welcome Center and Taste NY Market.
Note: 4 Wheel or All Wheel Drive vehicles are recommended during the winter season.
