Waterfront vacation rentals in Skaneateles Lake

The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway

Our stay here was fantastic. Joan was an amazing host and had plenty of recommendations on things to do based on what we liked. Could not have been a better experience, the apartment was clean and comfortable, and overall it was such a lovely spot. Waking up to the calm of the area and being so close to so many fantastic local places made this trip one or the best we've ever had. Went for my partner's birthday this all made it truly special.

My boyfriend and I had a very relaxing weekend stay at Todd’s place. The views were beautiful, right on the lake, perfect for kayaking! We will definitely stay here again if we come back to the area.

We had a wonderful time. Beautiful location with all the amenities we needed for a wonderful stay. The house was very clean and well kept. Deanna and Dave were very pleasant to talk to and their dog Chloe was just the best. Greeted us every morning and we loved playing Frisbee with her in the afternoon. Such a bonus for us. We enjoyed watching the sunset every evening. We plan to visit again.

Beautiful location right on Cayuga Lake. Peaceful, quiet, and very comfortable. The hosts were very responsive and provided a lot of information on the local area. We enjoyed our stay very much!

I had a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly communicative and responsive throughout the entire process. He was kind, helpful, and made everything so easy. The place itself was beautiful, comfortable, and exactly as described. It was peaceful and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend!

This is a very stylish and cozy place for a getaway. The view is stunning and romantic. Chris is very responsive and helpful if any help is needed. Would definitely recommend anyone for a try.

such a gorgeous and unique place!! we were well equipped for a cozy stay in. we cooked and painted and explored outside. Maria was not only quick to respond but a pleasure to talk to :) would absolutely love to stay again in the future, thank you so much for having us

Drift away was a wonderful cottage right on the lake. Place was extremely comfortable. Beautiful views. We didn’t have the greatest weather which would have made the trip so much better, so we hope to plan a trip back soon.

Great location and having the kayaks and canoe was so nice, but we caught most of the fish right from the dock. Highly recommend this place!

I have stayed at the lakehouse for many years now and have always had a great experience. Amy keeps the house up well and every year there is an upgrade/renovation to look forward to. This year we enjoyed using the pedal boat, basketball hoop, dart games, and the many games for our toddler. The yard is perfect for our husky. We also enjoyed the local activities, including Green Lake State Park. The house is also clean and well kept, and Amy communicates well for any issues that may come up. We look forward to visiting again next year!

Thank you Sarah for a wonderful, relaxing stay at your Hamilton cottage. My family and I loved the Lebanon Reservoir and the surrounding Colgate community. We appreciate your thoughtfulness and communication!

This was a very nice place, everything was as advertised. Lots of towels to use, which was nice. A couple things to note: there is no dining room table or dishwasher in this place. It was ok for us because we had nice weather and could sit outside, and also there was only 2 of us. Location was beautiful for watching sunsets and close to the town of Canandaigua; but beach access was 1.5 miles down the road, so not super close if walking.

michael and his team were great this weekend! i rented this place for my best friends bach and they could not have all been more helpful!! whether it was suggestions of places to eat, things to do, best bars around there, whatever it was, michael has the answer and was so helpful. very accommodating and super helpful with the planning process and made my life a lot easier as the planner of the event! i definitely recommend his air bnb and would love to come back! thank you again for everything michael!!

We had a great stay at this lake house! Everything was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. The location was peaceful and perfect for a relaxing getaway. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!

Here’s an updated Airbnb review that includes the host’s responsiveness and their handling of a small issue, while keeping the previous points about the interior, exterior, and lovely views without mentioning sunset views: We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The interior of the house was absolutely gorgeous—beautifully decorated, impeccably clean, and incredibly cozy, making us feel right at home. The host was very responsive to all communications and dealt with a small issue promptly and professionally, which we greatly appreciated. The views from the property were lovely, offering stunning scenery that enhanced our relaxing getaway. While the exterior could use some improvement to match the interior’s charm, it didn’t detract from our overall experience. We highly recommend this place for a comfortable and scenic stay!

It is a very quiet place, with an excellent view, around with a touch of security and peace. Everything is very clean, its comfortable beds, and its spacious living room is a nice place if you don’t want to go out. We are a family of 4 where we have a lot of fun. Thank you for the attention in the chat upon our arrival.

Tobiah was a fabulous host. He answered all questions promptly and was very helpful. We had a small gathering of family, coming from far apart and the condo was wonderful! It worked beautifully for our needs. We loved the view of the lake off the balconies-- especially with a full moon reflecting on it! The condo was well-appointed, with everything we needed. It was a very comfortable setting and close to hiking, wineries, and water activities, as well as cycling along the Erie Canal. The condo's location, a short distance between the towns of Naples and Canadaigua, made it easy to run an errand or go out eat. We highly recommend Tobiah's waterfront condo!

We enjoyed our stay with clean accommodations and well stocked. The only thing I would consider adding is a washer and dryer for convenience.

Lori was amazing at communicating with us about some issues we had leading up to our visit. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our stay!

Wonderful stay. It faces the inlet and you can see across to the plazas instead of the full lake, but it's still very pretty. A great unit, great area, great instructions and responsiveness.

We had a wonderful stay. The views were absolutely stunning. It was a perfect way to ring in the new year. Amy was very responsive, and the house was perfect. We hope to return one day.

Our family came in for a concert, and this location was perfect. Beautiful condo, with a perfect location on the lake. With access to the pool, hot tub, life sized chess board, gym and the lakeside trail, we were within steps of a brewery, salon, restaurants, playground and an ice cream shop. Within walking distance of CMAC -- which we saw many people do. No need to bring your own towels, the condo has 4 for your use. The owners were quick to respond when we weren't able to get the door open (trick: turn the lock all the way to the right and lift the door handle up as you open) and super kind/prompt if I had other questions. We'll def be back. Thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful place!

If I could give this a 10 start review I would! The service provided to my family was white gloved. The home was a bit out dated but the view made up for it! Truly a beautiful get away that I will be doing again!
