Enjoy the experience and history of Seneca Lake living at Schoolhouse Cottage! This historic school house has been lovingly renovated and restored from baseboards to rafters, giving you the feel of lakeside luxury, while still maintaining the quality historic feel that we know and love in the heart of the Finger Lakes. Drive down the quiet, dead-end road to the property, arriving in the rear, with ample parking space, and a cozy backyard area for children to play in. Entering the home, you will be greeted by the open floor plan, living and kitchen area. The large, fully modern kitchen features dark wood cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, upscale gas range, a wine cooler, and granite kitchen counter tops – a chef's dream! Even has filtered water at the sink! Lake facing windows offer a lake view while prepping meals, or enjoying a quick snack at the bar side of the island. Directly in front of the kitchen is the living area, complete with overstuffed furniture and a large, flat screen TV for movies on quiet indoor nights at the lake. Venturing outside through the French doors, you will enjoy panoramic views of the Seneca sunrises on the covered porch, which spans almost the entire front of the home. To the side of the great room is the spacious Master Suite, featuring a King size bed, 40” flat screen TV, ensuite bathroom, and a private walkout to the covered front porch. Two additional bedrooms, and a shared full bath are just off the hallway in the rear of the home. A set of stairs to the lower level leads to the game/rec room, where guests can enjoy a rousing game of fooseball or watch TV and lounge on the full size futon on a rainy day. All on one level, with 11' vaulted ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and quality furnishing, you won't want to go home! Take the stair case down to the lakefront, where you can use the permanent dock to enjoy some lakefront coffee in the mornings, or mooring your boat after enjoying some quality Seneca Lake fishing. Many fine wineries are just a short drive away, and you sit directly on the main route for the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, and just 15 minutes from the Keuka Lake Wine Trail. The quiet residential road is also great for walking and biking to stretch your legs after a delicious meal of local food. Don't miss your chance to experience historic charm and luxury living at Schoolhouse Cottage. Active RR tracks run behind this property.

There were 8 of us total, the kitchen had man amenities, matched the photos and was plenty spacious. The views were stunning and the deck was perfect for sunbathing. The only hang up we had was parking, we were only allowed 3 spaces when the property could have fit more cars. We parked the others at the rental office 15 minutes away but wished we could have parked at the house. All that said I would fully recommend and hope to be back in the future! ##### Jamie R.

Quiet street, great open space! Kitchen is stocked enough when it comes ton pots and pans and utensils ! I would suggest packing ziplock bags or your own leftover containers if you are gonna cook. 7 people some with a couples showers a day and never ran out of hot water! Ceiling fans in 2 of the bedrooms. The back porch….. OMG We lived there! The VIEW, ceiling fans and seating was AWESOME! Plenty of space for all 7 of us! OUR only issue was we did not see the instructions on how to lock the two French doors. The management company never got back to us. We did not use the kayaks because they were difficult to get to.

It was sparkling clean right down to the corners both inside and out. Right away we felt relaxed and at home, and it was perfect for our group of six adults and two children. We loved hanging out in the main room and around the long dining table. We spent hours on the huge, comfortable porch overlooking the lake enjoying our morning coffee, watching the birds on the water and in the trees, taking afternoon naps, sipping wine, and later marveling at the peacefulness of lake after dark. We also had a magical evening around the fire pit toasting marshmallows for s'mores. I even spent a quiet hour by myself just relaxing and reading down on the dock. It was fun to play with the children in the large yard. The kitchen had everything we needed with more than enough plates, glasses, and silverware. The beds were comfortable and the main bedroom had both an en suite and a door that opened on to that fabulous porch. Both the serene setting and the location were perfect for us. Our only regret is that we didn't book a longer stay. ##### Charlotte D. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tim B.

It would take a very long time to list all the wonderful features of this property. It is absolutely stunning, much larger than I anticipated, spotlessly clean, and the perfect location. All the beds are super comfy, plenty of hot water, and the view is amazing. I was attending my daughter's wedding in Penn Yan and couldn't have found a better place to relax and rest in between festivities. A sincere thank you to the owners for allowing us to stay, and kudos to property management for the upkeep and excellent communication. ten stars! ##### giselle l.

This spacious waterfront property had everything we were looking for and more. The kitchen is fabulous—large 6-burner range with a huge oven and nice cookware made dining in a real pleasure. The gas grill by the deck was in perfect working order with plenty of propane. Nice updated baths, as well. The huge deck looking out over the yard and Seneca Lake really stole the show, though! We found ourselves wishing we had scheduled a couple more days just to hang out at the property, lounge on the dock, and paddle around in the kayaks. That said, location is also perfect for taking advantage of the many nearby attractions: we had a lovely time at Anthony Road Winery just minutes away and were just 15-20 minutes from HWS Colleges where our son was graduating this weekend. We would definitely return for a longer stay! ##### Shannon C. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin H.

We relaxed & enjoyed the spectacular view from the comfy chairs on the porch. The entire house looks re done with beautiful wood floors, moldings & large windows. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Kristin H. Stayed 3 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher G.

This place is so beautiful and clean and is situated on Lake Seneca with a wonderful view. Did lots of wine tasting all around the lake and this cottage was in the perfect location. If you stay here you must visit Anthony Road Winery and Kemmeter. Great experiences all around. Will definitely stay here again. ##### Christopher G.
