About this house rental

Located in Skaneateles Lake, this attractive house for $395 per night is a great option for your next trip. Charming lake view cottage on the tranquil southern end of Skaneateles Lake with 100 feet of lake frontage and a boathouse right on the water. Perfect for enjoying the lake and forgetting your troubles. Unique property with rare easy access to the lake by foot or by car. Open floor plan with french doors leading out to huge deck from sun-filled living room and master bedroom with spectacular views of lake. Also has a second bedroom with 2 twin beds plus a front room with a day bed that opens to a queen bed for additional sleeping options. Fully equipped kitchen with washer/dryer, country dining table, comfortable seating for 6 and a gas fireplace. Boathouse furnished with fun and comfort in mind. Sliding glass doors open to double boat slip. Large wooden deck at water level with colorful Adirondack chairs. Lakeside fire pit perfect for grilling and roasting marshmallows. Full boat slip with ample additional dock frontage for tying up your fleet of small boats. Unusually easy car access to the lake - drive down to the boathouse right to the water's edge. You can launch your boat from the Scott Park public boat launch, a 1/2 mile from the house or, if the water level in the lake is low, you can use the Skaneateles Marina in Mandana, a 10 minute drive up the lake. Please note there is a small, quiet road between the main house and the boat house. And while we are very dog-friendly, we do have a one-dog maximum per renter and the dog must be small, house-broken and well trained.

We spent a wonderful 6 weeks at Eric's cottage on the lake. We found so much to do in the area, the time flew by. The cottage was very comfortable for two of us and our little dog. The boat house and dock became our favorite place. We swam and kayaked. The cottage was clean and well stocked with supplies and kitchen equipment. The window A/C kept it comfortable during the few days when it got to the 80s. The evenings cooled off nicely and there always seemed to be a breeze. It's a friendly neighborhood and people gave us advice on touristy things to do. We hope to return - maybe to catch the fall colors!

We have a group that gets together every year at Skaneatles Lake. Our friends and us loved the cottage. Hopefully we can get back there next year.

The property was exactly as described. The house was very clean and comfortable and the shoreline and boathouse were great places to relax, swim and kayak. And the patio off the front of the house provided an amazing view of this incredibly clean/clear lake.

One of the best VRBO properties we have experienced. Owner very responsive and helpful. The home was well furnished and supplied. Already booked for next year. The lake is sooòoo crystal clear and the eagle fishing was an extra bonus.

My wife and I were lucky to take advantage of a last min cancellation and what a wonderful week we had. The waterfront was great for the pontoon boat we rented. Hope to come back next year.

This is a perfect spot to spend time with family and friends on beautiful Skaneateles lake. You will need to bring very little and you will wake up every morning to a beautiful view of one of the prettiest lakes. The lakefront is stocked with everything you need to enjoy the lake. The deck is great for cooking and eating outside. The hosts are available for any questions and checked in to make sure all was well while we were there. Lovely trip!

3rd year staying here. No need to bring anything beyond clothes and food. This house has everything for the house and waterfront Area is quiet. Waterfront is large enough for boats and swimming. House is clean and well maintained. My family loves their week in this location every year and look forward to many years in the future

EVERYTHING was perfect!!!The owners provided everything---from linens, all appliances, an abundance of food staples, cookware., kayaks and even wood for the firepit!. An added benefit was that they allowed dogs and the set-up with the fenced in areas provided our dog with freedom & safety, The furnishings were clean & comfortable but the view and access to the lake completed a wonderful vacation.
