"This property has an amazing view and access to the lake. The only thing I would have someone pay attention to is that there is an underpass right before the property that is quite low. My jeep compass did just fine, however."

Lake House Open Year-Round! Summer Pool Fun & Fireplace Cozy Winter Retreat.

10/10 Excellent
"This property provided a wonderful stay for our family. We loved the amenities, especially the pool and the easy lake access—no endless flights of steps to navigate! There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, and the front porch became the perfect gathering spot when it rained.The location was ideal, with everything we wanted to do just a short drive away.Our only minor criticism was that the beds could have been a bit more comfortable. Otherwise, everything was excellent.The hosts were incredibly attentive and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. Thank you, Jill, for your hospitality! We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this property to others."

Seneca Lakefront | Hot Tub, Sauna & Epic Game Room / Bar

Seneca Lakefront | Hot Tub, Sauna & Epic Game Room / Bar

8/10 Good
"All-in-all we very much enjoyed our stay. Vibe Property Mgt representatives were extremely accessible, responsive and friendly. The location is awesome - great views, easy access to Pen Yan and Geneva, wineries, breweries and shopping. The rooms in the main house were comfortable and the game room is fun. There are kayaks and a pier to enjoy the lake. The negatives may be of lower importance, but they have the effect of keeping the overall experience from being what it should be. For example 8 towels for 8 people over 3 nights. With the lake, a hot tub and a sauna having a single towel is a nuisance. Not enough coffee for everyone and the coffee pot requires holding the pot against the dispenser to release the coffee (cheap Amazon Basics machine with a part missing or broken). The room in the garage is a step below the others in terms of quality of the bedroom and bathroom. Lastly, the lack of shampoo and soap for showers feels like unnecessary penny pinching. They are not listed as provided, but anyone accustomed to Airbnb may not even consider that they won’t be available. These may seem like nit-picks, but they have the effect of shifting the experience from consistently to mostly positive. It’s close to amazing (an A- or B+). A few less corners-cut and it will provide the constant, positive experience expected when paying the price for it."

10/10 Excellent
"The Green Duck is a delightful cottage with everything we could want for a getaway, and we highly recommend it!The house is cheerful and clean. It has A/C window units, but we mostly just opened the windows and set up some fans, and got a wonderful lake breeze to keep it comfortable.The location is perfect! Right above the water, very private compared to most waterfront properties, and yet close to shopping, some of our favorite wineries, and some really good restaurants. The hot tub is amazing and once you get it up to temperature it's pretty easy to keep it there for successive uses. Go for a quick dip with your morning coffee and fantastic views of the lake!Jonny is a gracious host, provides just about everything you might need, and is very responsive. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay at the Green Duck again!"
