Lake house vacation rentals in Canandaigua

What a wonderful 4-day stay in a perfect cottage for my 3 middle aged daughters and me on our “girls’ trip!” The house had everything we needed and was perfectly located for our visits to wineries, breweries, Watkins Glen State Park, Ithaca, and many other places in the Finger Lakes region. We loved our evenings by the fire pit with the stunning lake view and beautiful sunsets. The comfortable seating on the covered porch made our one rainy evening enjoyable, and we continued to have fun in the sturdily built game room which became our “safe place” during an unexpected tornado warning! Jaci’s communication was great, and we highly recommend staying at this lovely cottage!

The home was spacious, beautifully designed, and had an amazing view. Our kids loved the toys and having so much room to play. We also enjoyed having a great park nearby. We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the unique space!

Do not hesitate to book this little piece of heaven! We stayed a full week and I didn’t want to leave. The deck and pier provide gorgeous views right on the lake. We spent many, many hours outside enjoying the beauty and peacefulness. Tips: As described, be sure to bring in plenty of drinking water. We drank lots of coffee in the mornings, just sitting on that gorgeous deck. If the stairs make you nervous, try the futon. It was quite comfortable, especially turned 90 degrees. Try to use the back door sparingly (unless you have to lock up). Lots of mosquitoes back there! We mostly used the door that faces the lake. We were relieved to find sunblock and bug spray there. We had forgotten those. You’ll definitely need them. Check out The Windmill (15 min) shops. Also highly recommend Hermann J Wiemer winery just 5 min up the road. Great tasting experience. Make a reservation first on their website.

Jill's place was perfect for celebrating a special occaison! The location is picture perfect and there is everything you could ask for! Great communication and very clean and organized! We highly recommend for anyone travelling to Seneca Lake!

This listing was all we could’ve asked for and more! We booked Toby’s lake house for a last minute MDW getaway and it exceeded our expectations. The property is steps away from beautiful Conesus Lake. There is so much natural light in the living room — drinking coffee in the morning looking out onto the lake was a dream. We were having difficulty figuring out how to use the grill and Toby responded right away. Can’t say enough good things about our stay! Would love to come back again.

The cottage was exactly as pictured—comfortable and cozy. We felt at home as soon as we arrived. It was the perfect setting for the HWS commencement weekend! 💜🧡

This was a great house in a great location. Communication from owners was excellent, and house was well set up for guests. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful view. Heidi made the whole process very easy and was thoughtful with supplying snacks and toiletries. We were fortunate to have great weather, but there was plenty to do inside on a rainy day. it was fun to use kayaks and fish off the pier. Thanks Heidi!

Hammie on Rye was a very clean little house. Enough room for 2 couples and stocked with plenty of towels and other necessities. The location was great, easy to find and a very short walk to restaurants and little shops. We LOVED Vern’s bakery! We utilized the fire pit which sits in the driveway in the front of the house. Although it was an odd location, we found it funny interacting with people walking past. Personally, we thought there was an exorbitant amount of Knick knacks which made it feel cluttered. But overall it was nice. And very clean which is most important to us. Would recommend to others.

Gregory was a great host . Everything we needed was there for us . He even went out of his way to bring us the BBQ grill . We went while it was still winter so it’s usually stored during that time . The house was clean , comfortable and directly across the street from Lake Ontario . Very quiet neighborhood with allot to do around you that’s walking distance . I highly recommend this home if you’re looking for a relaxing peaceful experience with a great host ..

The property is very nice and right on the lake with beautifulviews. The house is very clean and has a well stocked kitchen. We would recommend it to others.

We had a wonderful time at Mary’s on the lake. We had 2 small dogs and it was perfect for them. There is a fenced in area by the house and they also enjoyed being with us by the lake. They were afraid of the steps at first, but we just carried them down. We kayaked, used the peddle boat and had a fire by the shore. My teenagers even had fun. There are many waterfalls in the area that we were fortunate enough to visit. The gorge at Watkins Glen state park was one the best things we’ve ever seen. Rainbow Falls was amazing. Thank you!

The stay at Ferryland was amazing! Ontario lake is such a powerful and beautiful place to be. Jan made the stay possible, easy and comfortable. Will highly consider vacationing again here!!!

Erin's place was the perfect location for a guys weekend! The house was very nice, tons of space and perfect for what we needed. Very close to breweries, wineries and Geneva. We also loved the lake being right across the street. I highly recommend a stay!

Beautiful and comfortable lake house with a gorgeous view and easy access to the lake! The kitchen was was well stocked with ample space for our family. We woke up every morning to the sounds of the birds and the water. Carolyn's suggestions for things to do and places to eat were spot on. We loved the hike at Robert Treman state park, walking around the botanic gardens and a visit to the bird lab at Sapsucker woods. Dinner at Hazelnut Kitchen was a delicious treat as well as ice cream at the Cornell Dairy Barn. Overall, I highly recommend this house if you want a peaceful and restorative vacation.

Sean’s property was beautifully maintained and exceeded our expectations. We chose this location for its accessibility, particularly for my elderly mother, and it proved to be an ideal choice. The walk to the lake was easy and convenient, making it even more enjoyable. Sean was highly responsive and communicative, promptly addressing any questions we had. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-located stay.

Francis was very responsive. We had some difficulty on our end with the initial booking. He was very kind and patient. He answered questions in a timely manner. We would definitely go back.

Fred’s place was absolutely stunning - both inside and outside. Fred was very responsive to our questions. The place itself is spotless, spacious and very comfortable. The landscaping is beautiful. We would love to visit again!!

This was one of the most remarkable Airbnb stays I’ve ever had. The house is beautiful, spacious, and in a perfect location. We would absolutely stay here again if we’re back in Geneva!!

This Airbnb was the perfect fall getaway! We visited the lake to soak in the autumn vibes, and this spot exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of room for our group of five, and the host’s recommendations made our trip even better. While the area is known for summer fun, I think fall might be the best time to visit. We had an amazing time exploring the charming shops, cozy restaurants, and stunning waterfront spots, plus the nearby vineyards are a must-see. Can’t wait to return next year when the leaves are changing again—absolutely loved our stay!

The house is small and cozy, perfect for a couple. We loved it. The sunrise looking out the living room windows is phenomenal. The views of the lake are great. Non-stop fish jumping in the lake. Fishing from the dock was good. Caught a bass by the dock.

I had a fantastic three-night stay at this charming, up-to-date cottage. It was cozy and welcoming, with a spotless bathroom with a roomy walk-in shower and stocked with plenty of fresh towels. The bedroom was comfortable, and I slept great each night. The location is easy to find, right off the main road, which was super convenient. I also enjoyed the fast Wi-Fi, nice TV, and the thoughtful touch of a Bose Wave radio with a selection of music CDs. Highly recommend for a comfortable and enjoyable getaway!

Our family had a great time at this beautiful property. The lake view was perfect - we even saw a local otter a few times from the back deck. The hot tub was a great spot to relax at the end of a long day. The Finger Lakes in general are lovely and this was a very relaxing place to stay in the area. Naples is very close and has a full grocery, plus restaurants and ice cream parlors - we can highly recommend trying the strawberry at Lynnie Lou’s! The property appeared exactly as the photos. Everything was clean, orderly, and well supplied. Our two boys loved the bunk room, especially watching a movie from the top bunks before bed. Highly recommend, would love to stay here again - if only it weren’t a 15 hour drive!

Beautiful lake view. Our weather was not as nice as I hoped but we were able to sit outside and enjoy the water view for some of our stay. Nice to sit in the dining room and look out the large windows with a cup of coffee. Cheryl was very responsive to any questions we had. I imagine the landscaping is beautiful in the summer. We were visiting just as spring was starting so nothing lush or green yet.
