Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Seneca Lake

My husband and I stayed here for a winter weekend getaway and it was everything we wanted! Perfectly tucked away in the woods, but close to Hammondsport and Penn Yan! We will definitely be back in the future.

Drift away was a wonderful cottage right on the lake. Place was extremely comfortable. Beautiful views. We didn’t have the greatest weather which would have made the trip so much better, so we hope to plan a trip back soon.

Karen and George’s home was the perfect Finger Lakes getaway. The house was extremely clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. It was super close to some of the best wineries, and they were just a text away—friendly, responsive, and incredibly accommodating. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again! 10/10!

Excellent home. It’s a very private location at the end of a quiet 4 home street. Won’t see or hear the neighbors at all. Easy drive to Ithaca, great hiking, local farms, and Watkins Glen. The pool is great, secluded and in all afternoon sun. Great for relaxing. Fire pit has all you need - dry firewood, Fire starters, s’mores kit, and sticks. Corn hole too. The house is very comfortable, clean, and well designed. If you are taller than 6’5, the master bathroom ceiling might be slightly low for you but the bathroom in the main level would be fine. Definitely recommend this gem

We had a great time here! Chris gave us incredible food and activity recommendations making our stay extremely worthwhile. He was responsive and helpful throughout the entire weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here- the views were incredible, the dock was so peaceful, and we loved having access to a fire pit. The driveway is pretty steep, required to walk up/down to access the dock. Our stay was perfect, can't wait to return.

Brittany and Kenny were friendly, responsive and thoughtful every step of the way. We had a brief power outage, and they helped us with a little issue afterwards in no time flat. I would highly recommend The Riesling Ranch for comfort, beauty, access to wineries/restaurants/indoor and outdoor activities, shopping and just plain peace and quiet.

This cabin was incredible! Beautifully designed and decorated with high quality linens, kitchen utensils, and furnishings. The views from the deck and the master bedroom were spectacular! Be aware there are no blinds on the big windows in the bedroom which means a beautiful wake up with the sunrise at 5:30 am. The host assured us that no one could see in and we took her word for it!😉

What a great stay for a quick weekend getaway! Anything you could think of and some was accounted for. You can tell Christine really cares to make the experience special. Will definitely be back!

Staying at this charming little cottage near the Finger Lakes was an absolute delight. The moment we arrived, I felt as if I’d been transported to Scandinavia, surrounded by serene natural beauty and peaceful views. The quiet sounds of nature made it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Alicia was incredibly friendly, responsive, and accommodating, making sure that every aspect of our stay was perfect. Without a doubt, this is a 10 out of 10 experience, and we can’t wait to return for a longer visit to explore more of the property and the surrounding town! Thank you again!

When we walked in the airbnb, I though someone was playing piano next door, but there was a soothing piano playlist on the TV. The heat and air was already on and set at a comfortable temperature, as well, which was lovely because it was cold and rainy. There were books with suggestions on what to do around the area. We had everything we needed here, and we were very thankful that bottled water was provided! We actually ran into Christopher and he is such a friendly man.

We had a fantastic stay while exploring Watkins Glen and Seneca Lake! The location was perfect—super close to all the main attractions and with easy access to highways for getting to and from home, as well as nearby towns like Corning. The space itself was cozy and just right for a couples’ getaway. It was clean, quiet, and well-stocked with essentials like toiletries, towels, and linens. Having a dishwasher and washer/dryer was a big plus, and the smart TVs were easy to use during our downtime. There’s also a Walmart just a few minutes away in case you need anything last minute. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again on a future visit. (My husband wants to give a special shoutout to the candy jar lol) Thank you for a great experience!!

We stayed at George's place on a quick overnight and arrive late. So sad we didn't have more time to stay here. The apartmement is on the top floor so there are stairs to climb but it is just adorable and so charming! The view or Ithaca Falls from the living room windows and the sound of the falls in the morning was spectacular. Would definitely stay here again!

Stayed here for a reunion weekend- comfortable accommodations with many conveniences. About a 40 min drive to Ithaca which was fine

Great location around lots of amazing hiking. The apartment felt private and had everything we needed. Shower pressure was amazing and we loved relaxing in the hot tub after a full day of hiking. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Scott was great and so helpful! We had a short stay, but every year when we come to open up our cabin, we hope to stay again! Thank you so much, Scott!

Our stay in Auburn was fantastic! Beautiful older home that was comfortably renovated and well kept. Unbeatable location right near downtown.

Absolutely loved this charming cabin! Beautifully furnished with thoughtful touches throughout, it felt like a true retreat. The location is peaceful and private, and everything was perfectly comfortable for my two-day stay. Would definitely come back!

The cabin was lovely. It was great to be cut off from wifi amd other distractions. I li ed that the host had a thoughtful collection of dvds, ping pong, dart and other board games. We also enjoyed camp fire and the kitchen had all the basic utensils that we needed. There is also a general store near by to get anything needed and lit of good restaurants nearby too.

This has to be the best airbnb I've stayed in, absolutely beautiful place, had anything you could need on a trip. My girlfriend and I loved staying here and enjoyed our time immensely. Highly recommend staying here, very peaceful private place if you need quiet place to get away.

Lisa was an amazing host! The cabin is very well kept and has everything you could need. Beautiful mountain view too! I went for a week of hiking and Lisa’s son left me a whole page length note telling me about great hiking trails around the area and accurate details on how to get there. Great recommendations too! Will definitely stay here again if I return to this area.

We loved the Cabin. It was so cute and cozy. The area was beautiful and the privacy of the cabin was so great. We loved the firepit and the porch swing. We would definitely stay there again.

Would definitely stay again. Enjoyed the deck which had a great view of the lake. Close to Watkins Glen, Ithaca, wineries,restaurants. We didn’t build a fire but the area surrounding the fire pit was well kempt.

It was a beautiful cabin in the woods. Perfect for a weekend get away. The owners were very helpful and receptive. Absolutely spotless and extremely clean. Will definitely recommend.

Kc was incredibly responsive and helpful, quick to answer any questions and offer suggestions. The property was impeccably clean and well-maintained, making our stay extremely comfortable. We especially appreciated the unique decor, fully equipped kitchen and peaceful surroundings-a wonderful quiet and relaxing stay.
