Charming farmhouse on a quiet road near Seneca Lake, Glenora & Watkins Glen ❤️

Take a plunge into the past in our recently-renovated classic farmhouse situated on a quiet country road - only 1 mile from the shores of Seneca Lake and Glenora Point. We are located in an ideal, centralized location in the Finger Lakes region with close proximity to Seneca and Keuka Lakes and their top-notch wineries and breweries, the quaint villages of Watkins Glen, Hammondsport, and Penn Yan, and the popular wedding venues of Glenora Wine Cellars and Climbing Bines Brewery. You will be walking distance to our favorite winery, Hickory Hollow (0.8 miles), and three of the best restaurants in the entire Finger Lakes region: Tabora Farm and Winery (0.3 miles), The FLX Wienery (0.7 miles), and Veraisons (1.3 miles). All three restaurants offer spectacular food, desserts, local craft beverages, and a cozy atmosphere. You will be hard pressed to find another vacation rental where you can walk on a safe, quiet road to indulge in great food and wines - and not have to worry about a designated driver!

Enjoy quiet days and relaxing evenings sipping coffee or wine on our large porches or play games and grill dinner in our spacious back yard. The road on which the house is located is one of the more scenic roads in the area - it rolls and winds by Mennonite farms, produce stands, and osprey nests - and offers beautiful views of Seneca Lake and the valleys. A great location for biking, walking or a Sunday drive.

Nearby activities:
* Swim in Seneca Lake at Starkey Point, a quiet, family-friendly public swimming area. Just 2 miles away
* Buy fresh produce at one of the Mennonite roadside farmstands
* Go outdside: Explore the area’s many hiking trails including the magnificent gorge at Watkins Glen State Park, bike the scenic country roads & visit the many local waterfalls
* Get on the water: Set sail on Seneca Lake’s boat cruises or rent a kayak or motorboat
* Shop local crafts and produce at the Windmill Farm & Craft Market
* Walk or drive to nearby restaurants and wineries

Every aspect of the house is geared toward a relaxing vacation and allowing you to be in the present with your family and friends. Our property is purposefully lacking televisions (although we did recently add internet). You will have 1 acre of lawn space for grilling and outdoor games as well as the following:
* Large gas grill, 2 picnic tables & plenty of outdoor chairs
* A fire pit in a secluded back yard
* Board games, playing cards, books for all ages & a poker table
* Collection of classic vinyl records and record player as well as two large porches to enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of wine

The property accommodates 10 people and offers 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 full, 1 half). All of the rooms are spacious with attractive wood floors and wood trim including a very large living room with plenty of seating for your group. The house has an abundance of beautiful antique furniture and vintage household treasures.

The house is fully furnished and will provide your group with everything you need for your stay, including:
* Bed linens
* Bath & hand towels
* Kitchen supplies for preparing meals
* Washer & dryer (or an outdoor clothes line if you prefer)
* Drip coffee maker

There is parking in the driveway for 5-6 vehicles.

The property manager lives a few houses away and will be available to help if any issues arise.

No large parties on the property and no rowdy groups. Quiet hours from 10pm - 7am.

Guests of all backgrounds are welcome to enjoy our space. We look forward to hosting you.

Nice cozy house
The house was great. The 5 bedrooms were large and roomy. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the porch until late evening. There were plenty of towels, toilet paper & paper towels. The kitchen was roomy enough for several of us to be working in at the same time. The living room was comfortable, the dining table large enough for all of us to eat at. If there had been laundry detergent, we would have started a load but we couldn’t find any. Overall, great house.

Wonderful house!
We had a lovely 3-day stay at this house. Everything was clean, the kitchen was well stocked with everything you might need. The rooms are beautifully decorated. We loved the old record player with the large collection of records from the 40s through the 70s. The porch and the yard are very private, perfect for a morning cup of coffee; our daughter loved the tree swing. Kate was very nice - we had no additional requests, but she was a phone call away at all times, and made sure we had all we needed. We enjoyed our stay - thank you so much!

Hunt House girls weekend
Myself, my sister, and my cousin enjoyed our stay at Hunt House. Everything was very clean except the grill. The little things made our stay delightful, you can tell that care has been taken to decorate and furnish the house in keeping with its period. The kitchen was not quite as well stocked as we had expected (no olive oil forced us to be creative) but it was adequate. The beds were extremely comfortable and you can't beat the location if you want to explore the finger lakes area. A few wineries are within walking distance! Overall this property enhanced our getaway and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Renting this property was smooth-no issues, a perfect house for all ages. A big plus for the children was the “play room” with a chalk board and room for toys. Bedrooms upstairs so older family can go to bed while others play board games downstairs. Great vacation gets way

Finger Lake Farmhouse
The property was very nice and accommodating for all of our needs... The number one thing I can review about is cleanliness that is a huge one for me! The floors were so clean! I don’t walk barefoot in any houses except my own I always usually wear socks or slippers and make my kids wear them also... these floors were so clean and beautiful I was able to go without! I love how they are trying to preserve the house and you can tell it has been really well cared for! It was super convenient to a lot of really great locations and placed on a nice quiet road! So overall we had a great stay!

Excellent Accommodations!
Our stay here was excellent in so many ways! The location was excellent for visiting the finger lakes. The house was perfect for our group, and we enjoyed relaxing both indoors and outdoors. I especially liked the large living room, and the side porch was a great spot to enjoy our morning coffee, even when it was raining. From the house it was easy to get to numerous wineries, restaurants, etc. I can't wait to book my next trip and come back for a longer vacation.
