Holiday rentals with a kayak in Canandaigua Lake

What a wonderful 4-day stay in a perfect cottage for my 3 middle aged daughters and me on our “girls’ trip!” The house had everything we needed and was perfectly located for our visits to wineries, breweries, Watkins Glen State Park, Ithaca, and many other places in the Finger Lakes region. We loved our evenings by the fire pit with the stunning lake view and beautiful sunsets. The comfortable seating on the covered porch made our one rainy evening enjoyable, and we continued to have fun in the sturdily built game room which became our “safe place” during an unexpected tornado warning! Jaci’s communication was great, and we highly recommend staying at this lovely cottage!

Rick & Kim’s place was absolutely incredible!! My boyfriend proposed to me on our trip and Rick & Kim’s response was overwhelming in the best way!! Cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond to make our stay that much more special. Looking forward to our next stay!!

We’ve stayed at Emily’s house two years in a row for our fishing tournament weekend, and it’s been perfect each time. The home is clean, comfortable, and well-stocked—everything we needed to relax after long days on the water. Great location and plenty of space for our group. Emily is a fantastic host—responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely be back again

We were just so happy with the home as it did feel like we were right at home. We had six adults and there was more than enough room. The location was ideal for getting around Seneca Lake. Being right on the lake, it was a beautiful view and the hot tub was super. We would not hesitate to return to this property as we do love the Finger Lakes.

This Airbnb was the perfect fall getaway! We visited the lake to soak in the autumn vibes, and this spot exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of room for our group of five, and the host’s recommendations made our trip even better. While the area is known for summer fun, I think fall might be the best time to visit. We had an amazing time exploring the charming shops, cozy restaurants, and stunning waterfront spots, plus the nearby vineyards are a must-see. Can’t wait to return next year when the leaves are changing again—absolutely loved our stay!

Our family of 9, including 3 grandchildren had a wonderful visit. The house was beautifully designed ; it allowed incredible views of the lake and its surroundings. The kitchen was well designed with new appliances and plenty of counter space to prepare meals. It was well supplied with dishes, etc . The bedrooms were comfortable and roomy. We enjoyed the separate levels of decking that allowed plenty of relaxing and enjoyment of the beautiful views.

We had a wonderful stay and would recommend to anyone looking for some solitude and a beautiful place to enjoy a peaceful getaway. You can be in Naples, NY in 10 min or less for a few restaurants, etc. and Canandaigua is only 25 min north. Everything was lovely and just as advertised.

We very much enjoyed our stay at David’s home. The interior is fully renovated with all amenities as described- a rare find for multi-family space requirements and lake-front access.

Highly recommend. The house was clean, exactly as described, comfortable for family of 5. Amazing lake view from house and only few steps to lake. Perfect place for sunset view over the lake.

We had a terrific stay! Phillip was proactive and responsive. Check-in and check-out were easy . There were personal touches, snacks and wine awaiting us upon arrival! The house is beautifully located on the lake with great sunrises and views. Close to Hammondsport and many great wineries. Highly recommend!

Our second time - was as wonderful as first.

Our stay was great! The neighborhood was beautiful, and the cottage was very nice.

The cottage was delightful to stay at. There was a binder with details about local businesses that was very helpful. The kitchen knives along with the pots and pans are very good quality. My husband is a chef and he was delighted.

The place was very clean and everything was as described. Dustin was very responsive before and during our stay and answered all the questions we had very quickly.

This stay was a unique in that I plan to build a similar home as this one and I needed the opportunity to see what it would be like. Sally was super helpful not only with the Airbnb, but also with the home itself. Everything was super clean, well organized, no weird smells, and so well equipped. Sally has incredible taste. You will not be disappointed. Plus as a super host she’s so responsive and flexible. Such a great stay!

The location was perfect to attend a wedding at Fountainbleu Inn (just a short walk to venue). Also, the location next to lake was wonderful. We had plenty of bedrooms with linens/towels and extras like trash bags, paper towels, toiletries, dish soap etc was very nice. The kitchen had what we needed to cook for 10+ people, except crock pot and griddle (which we brought from home). We enjoyed the hot tub and used the propane grill on the large deck. The owner stays close by and was in communication often.

John is such a great host. We loved the initial tour of the place. The cabin was quaint and peaceful. Make sure to capitalize on cappy’s game room! An added surprise was hearing/ seeing the peacock in the barn. Too cool! Thank you so much for the hospitality, John! Hope to be back soon. Lawrence and Courtney

Our stay at Bear Camp was amazing. The view was fantastic, good fishing, easy to get into the lake with our kayaks, lovely porch to sit and relax and a clean, adorable cabin to stay in. What a gem. highly recommend this place and Honeoye Lake

I can’t say enough about Kathi & this cabin! She’s everything you’d want from a host - lovely, knowledgeable & gave the best tips! She was extremely accommodating, responsive & just an excellent host. The “cozy cabin” on Wells is just that & such a special place. The property is beautiful, peaceful & so inviting. We thoroughly enjoyed having breakfast on the pergola overlooking the pond in the morning & relaxing by the fire at night. You could do nothing else & have the time of your life but you’re also close to lots of lakes, waterfalls, wineries & quaint towns with cute shops so there is plenty to keep you occupied should you want to keep busy. Besides being picturesque, the cabin was spotless & had all the amenities you could ever need. In fact, they even supply extra toiletries in case you forgot something & wine if you’d like to partake. Such thoughtful touches! This was a bucket list trip for us & a much needed recharge. We were sad to leave but can’t wait to go back!

Great little spot by beautiful Lake Conesus. Convenient location, the space was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for a few day stay! Donald was great with communication and quick to respond when we needed the heat turned on. Recommended!

This cabin was even more wonderful than we imagined! It's absolutely adorable. Lindsey & Perry put such care into furnishing, decorating, and making their guests feel welcome. It was fully stocked with everything you could need. The location was simply perfect. The lake is so peaceful and serene. We spent the days exploring and hiking in Watkins Glen and Ithaca, and spent the evenings on the dock. I can see why other reviewers have mentioned returning time & time again... I didn't want to leave!

Great Stay Great Cabin! Everything was clean we felt comfortable there. The hot tub was great after the 2.4 mile walk at Watkins glen. It was too cold for us to kayak but it was nice sitting by the water and chilling. Loved the sound of the water at night.

We enjoyed staying here for a long weekend getaway with our daughter. The backyard is beautiful, very quiet and peaceful, and we saw so much wildlife! We enjoyed using the kayaks that were provided, we kayaked all the way up to the lake! We also enjoyed having fires and watching the neighbors dog, she was goofy! The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. My only suggestion would be curtains for all the windows as the sun comes up very early this time of year. Our host was very responsive and accommodating, allowed us to come a day earlier which was very nice! Would definitely love to stay here again!

We had a wonderful time during our visit. The cabin was secluded and private. Great location to hit wineries and breweries for us, we were within an hour or so of everything we wanted to do(we are used to a 20-30 minute drive on a daily basis for groceries). My favorite was the seating area on the dock overlooking the lake.
