About this property

Private Conesus Retreat | Lake Views | Fire Pit

Escape to this serene, secluded retreat nestled in the rolling hills of Conesus Lake. Surrounded by lush woodlands and nature's quiet, this property offers a rare combination of seclusion and sweeping lake views — the perfect base for unwinding, exploring Finger Lakes wine country, and reconnecting with the outdoors.

The Space
The home is thoughtfully laid out across two levels, each with its own distinct feel.
The main living area sits on the upper level, accessible directly from the backyard, where the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living spaces flow onto walk-out porches with panoramic sunset views over the lake. The layout invites you to slow down and settle in.

The walkout lower level offers its own comfortable retreat, complete with a kitchenette, a third
full bathroom, and easy access to the outdoors. Guests frequently note how much they appreciate having what feels like a semi-private space downstairs — ideal for families or groups who want to share a home while still having their own room to breathe.

Sleeping Arrangements
The home sleeps up to 8 guests across three bedrooms — a king, a king daybed, and a queen — plus two twin beds that comprise the sectional in the common area.
Three full bathrooms ensure plenty of space for larger groups.

The Views
The property's elevated position means you're treated to stunning lake and forest views without the noise and activity of a waterfront location. Guests who prefer a quieter, more
private experience will find this setting ideal. For those wanting to get out on the water, boat rentals are available across the street with Smith Boys Marina o floatfingerlakes.

Amenities
Smart TV, free Wi-Fi, jetted tub, stainless steel kitchen appliances, spacious dining area, and all essential supplies including linens, towels, coffee, and kitchen basics.

Location
Situated in the heart of the Finger Lakes region, the property offers easy access to Conesus Lake, acclaimed wineries, hiking trails, and the charm of Upstate New York.

Pet-friendly (up to 2 dogs with fee). Exterior security cameras at front entrance. No parties or events.

This property is pet-friendly ( pet with fee up to 2 dogs.) . Make sure to clean up after your fur babies. To ensure a clean, healthy, and respectful environment, all dog owners are required to immediately clean up and properly dispose of their dogs waste on the property. Failure to do so may result in an added fee of $100. Thank you

Excellent place

The place is large, quiet, well-appointed and very well-maintained. I was 100 yards from the lake but felt like I was in secluded woods. Great place and stay!

Fantastic!

This was perhaps the best VRBO I've ever stayed at. Beautiful, spacious home, well appointed. Great view of Conesus Lake. So comfortable. The beds and pillows were super comfortable and the showers were great. When we come back again, this will be the first place we look for.

Conesus Vacation

The property is quiet and secluded , just what we were looking for. The cabin is a pet friendly place, so we had to do a little air freshening at first . The cabin is as advertised. Plenty of room and the deck overlooking the water was our favorite. The only downside was it was pet friendly , but we would stay here again.

Nice lake view from the covered deck and fire pit. Large master bedroom with very comfortable king bed and master bathroom. The entire home is very well equipped with pretty much anything you need, with the exception of food, so no need to bring anything but groceries and personal items. It's a fairly steep climb from the parking area to the house, but well worth it, once inside. The hosts/property manager are lightning fast with their responses. Definitely plan on staying there again.

Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the lake views, fire pit, and comfort of the master suite. It’s wonderful to know the home had everything you needed for a relaxing stay and that our team could assist quickly whenever needed. We understand the climb from the parking area can be a bit steep, but we’re glad you felt it was worth it once inside. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another stay by the lake!

Relaxing Getaway

The house was beautiful from the inside out and the view of the lake over the treetops on the upstairs porch was my favorite to sit and drink coffee in the morning and evening. The area is very quiet and a nice getaway from the every hustle of life. The inside of the house was very clean especially for a place that allows pets. My dogs loved the getaway as well. I highly recommend and would definitely book again if I return to the area. Only negative which didn’t really bother us much was the outside garbage can hadn’t been emptied and was full, but that’s minor the stay was great overall.

What a great location for our family vacation in the finger lakes area. So many things to see. It was the perfect retreat after a busy day of exploring the area. The property was just as described. Beautiful setting up the hill overlooking Conesus lake. The views during Spring and Fall would be especially spectacular. The layout was very comfortable, spacious and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. We made full use of the roomy kitchen for meals. Grill on the back deck was a nice option. The fenced area in the backyard is a definite bonus for any pet owners. We had no issues but found the host to be very prompt with any questions we had before or during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it for anyone visiting the area.
