Fall Foliage/Parent's weekend/Pets Same day bookings accepted Terms apply

Our wonderful year round home/lodge looks more like a NYC contemporary home literally 15+- steps from water's edge.

Lake living, star gazing and movement of the moon shining on the lake and lighting up the room at night never cease to amaze me. I can spend hours watching the water&heavens above. Our stargazing, seeing falling stars&identifying the ever changing position of constellations make our night skies extra special2watch from our home. No guarantee u will see night sky.

Can U imagine a lovely family/romantic getaway w/clear blue/green water on a private waterfront, fishing from our dock, waking 2 morning sunrises & feeling the warmth of afternoon sun on UR back, seeing full moons reflecting on the lake, starry nights/constellations, August shooting stars, the smell of your BBQ sizzling UR favorite main dish/vegetables, listening 2 the gentle waves while sipping UR beverage lakeside, swimming/kayaking* off our private waterfront? Do U love sitting by water 15 steps from the house, taking walks looking @ the lake/hiking in nearby hills/parks, visiting wineries, breweries/taking cooking class or perhaps reading in our cozy nook/playing piano? Our home is ideal. Its 5+ minutes 2 City of Canandaigua by car where U will find 45 restaurants+-, 3 groceries including the famous Wegmans, walking distance to boat rentals and sailing lessons for a fee along with movie & live theater along with a number of outdoor concerts @ CMAC (4.5 miles form the house), along w/nearby Sonnenburg Park, Granger Homestead, Water&Alpine Park, bowling, skiing golf, tennis, llama & organic farms etc. Enjoy: Native American festivals, Annual New Maple Syrup Breakfast - reservation needed!
