Below the Vineyard: Ideal Lakeside Retreat!

Welcome to Below the Vineyard, your dream lakefront escape on Seneca Lake's famous Wine Trail. This stunning six-bedroom vacation home offers breathtaking views of vineyards and the water, combining luxury and comfort for an unforgettable Finger Lakes getaway.

The open-concept main floor features a gourmet chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a wine fridge, perfect for cooking up meals to enjoy at the massive farmhouse table overlooking the lake. Relax together in the great room on the oversized leather sectional or unwind in the vaulted sunroom with plenty of cozy seating and natural light.

With six comfortable bedrooms and four full bathrooms spread across three levels, there's plenty of room for family and friends. The ground-floor master suite offers private lake access and peaceful water views. The other bedrooms are beautifully furnished and thoughtfully designed for privacy and comfort.

Step outside to two covered porches and a spacious lake-level patio with plenty of seating, a porch swing, and a grill—ideal for dining or watching spectacular sunsets. The oversized dock gives you direct access to the lake for swimming, kayaking, fishing, or simply soaking up the sun.

Located just minutes from dozens of wineries, breweries, and restaurants, as well as the charming town of Watkins Glen and the raceway, this home is perfect for those who want a blend of lakeside relaxation and Finger Lakes adventure.
