About this property

Upscale Adirondack inspired Evan's Lodge - Skaneateles-1.5 mile drive to Village

It is our pleasure to welcome you to the beauty, serenity and splendor of The Evan's Lodge.

With downtown Skaneateles under a two minute drive away, you have the best of both worlds, peace and tranquility and Skaneateles downtown center at your fingertips!

This magnificent home sits on over 50 private, beautiful acres. The Evan's Lodge and the location are reminiscent of the Adirondacks while just up the road from downtown! It is a stately craftsman style lodge that has been renovated top to bottom, professionally interior designed with plenty of room for families to gather or have their separate quiet areas.

There is a wet bar in the main level living room with granite counter tops and a wine refrigerator.

Perfect home for our group of ten!

Plenty of bedrooms, beds and bathrooms. Downstairs/walk-out set-up is very nice. (Note: A small set of dishes would have been nice to have downstairs.) Main kitchen had everything necessary for meals. Home was very clean. Location was pretty and secluded, yet very close to town.

Cousin Trip

We were 10 female cousins coming from Rochester & PA in our 60's and 70's and I can't say enough about this beautiful home. It lived up to all expectations from cleanliness, layout, decor, kitchen fully stocked &TV's in every room! Communication was great and they came right down when we had questions on programming the TV. I would not hesitate to recommend this property or return again

Perfect home for wedding group

This house is everything it says it is and more! Beautiful, spacious, and a great back yard for grilling, having a fire pit, and spending time together. Debbie was a great host, as our family and friends in our bridal party spent the weekend with us in this house. Skaneateles lake is just a few short minutes away. Would highly recommend this vacation home!

Comfort and convenience plus more!

Our family of 10 has been renting homes in Skaneateles for four years. Evan’s Lodge was the favorite. Well designed and well appointed modern home with a comfortable feel inside and out. And only a 5 minute drive to the lake for swimming at the public swimming dock entrance and nearby restaurants and shopping.

Wonderful............................

Our trip to Skaneateles was for our son's wedding at a gorgeous wedding venue there. The lodge was perfect for us and extended family. Plenty of inside and outside space at the home. Very private and quiet location. Town of Skaneateles was absolutely lovely, quaint, quiet, great shops and sight seeing. Lake was absolutely gorgeous. Wonderful memories were made and we can't wait to come back:)

Awesome Experience

The property was lovely- secluded and spacious, with lots of land. The house is located on the grounds of a non-functioning motel, so it is a bit tricky to find, but it is truly a hidden gem. The home is very large and spacious with multiple levels so it could easily accommodate more than one family

A Lovely Home For A Very Special Family Get-Together

This is a lovely home that accommodated our family of ten. We appreciate the management team, Debbie and Rick, who were on hand immediately to answer questions or help solve problems. They genuinely made us feel welcomed. The Evans Lodge gave us a chance for a very special get together, which was long overdue.

Fantastic House!

Just left this home after a wonderful weekend with 12 total guests that have known each other for over 35 years. We loved this house, it had a room for everyone and lots of space for all of us to hang out together or in smaller groups also! The owner, Debbie, was super easy to work with, was always available and the one minor problem we had was immediately addressed! Highly recommended!
