Another Excellent Stay at Christine's Cabin

We stayed for 5 nights at Christine's Cabin to enjoy wineries and meet friends at Seneca Lake. This has become an annual event for us and we have stayed at this cabin for the last several years. It is an excellent location to explore wineries on Seneca and Keuka Lakes and see friends in the area.

Cozy Cabin

We enjoyed having the cabin as home base for our exploration of the Finger Lakes region, and the area is quiet and private. The only thing that would be better is a clearer view of the lake itself. Overall, though, it was a great getaway!

Perfect Little Spot

Very convenient place to stay. VRBO was tiny but that was expected. Perfect for the two of us, especially since we intended to use it only as a home base between activities like winery visits. Location was great. The host Sue was very kind and responsive! Neighbors were friendly!

The sweetest little cozy cabin!

Henry and Sue’s cabin is spotlessly clean, full of personal touches, and steps away from Seneca Lake and the most perfect sunsets you’ll ever see. It’s also located in truly the best spot in the Finger Lakes (all the major wineries you’d want to visit are on the road directly adjacent to the cabin). Check in was seamless, and my husband and I had the best weekend hiking, biking, having bonfires and sampling the local wines. Truly a hidden gem!

Another great stay at Christine's Cabin

We stayed for another 4 nights at Christine's Cabin on Seneca Lake. This was our third or fourth time to rent this cabin (I've lost count). It is our go-to rental on Seneca Lake. Couldn't ask for a better location - central to wineries and easy access to Watkin's Glen as well. We will be back.

Small but nice

The cabin was clean and nice -- and just as advertised. We were there after Labor Day so there is no swimming at Smith Park (no lifeguard= no swimming). It is close to many wineries and everything Watkins Glen offers. The hosts were easy to reach and very responsive.

Our Favorite Place In the Finger Lakes

This is the third time my partner and I have stayed at Christine's Cabin, and we plan on returning again next year. First, its location is incredible; it's about a block from the lake and close to incredible hikes and wonderful wineries. The cabin itself is clean and uncluttered. They recently installed a mini-split unit which ensures that the cabin will remain a comfortable temperature regardless of the weather. The owners are friendly and communicative which makes the environment even more stress free. We can't wait to go back!
