About this house rental
The Green Duck is simply an easy house to be in. At the end of a private road, you'll find our charming 1 bedroom lake house- which includes a full kitchen and living room area with a bathroom (standup shower only). The house is equipped with washer and dryer! We like to keep all the screened windows open all summer and let the breeze keep the house cool, but if you need it, theres AC in the bedroom and the sun room that cools the whole place. There is working WIFI, DVD system, TV channels, but save that for a rainy day. You'll be spending most of your time outside on the deck or down on the beach and/or swimming dock. There are 2 kayaks for your use as well as some extra life jackets. Plenty of deck chairs for sitting or laying out in the sun. A great place for bird watching (bald eagles!) and fishing right off the dock! 2 fire raised metal fire pits (one on the beach and one in the yard) for those nighttime bonfires! This property is unique as we get both Sunrise on the lake and sunset over the hills of Fox Run Winery! One last thing - a charming and historic train runs next to the house. The train seems to have no set schedule, but seems to run very infrequently. Sometimes not coming for days on end and other times passing by up to 3 times in one day. We see this as part of the charm of the place- the train goes slow and the conductor will even sound the whistle for you if you wave at the train! All in all - this is the perfect house for a quiet, get-a-way - full of fishing, swimming, laying around, working on your new book, or a just a romantic rural experience! Oh, and if it gets too quiet - Historic Downtown Geneva is a 15 minute drive. There you can find gift shops, a cinema, The Smith Opera House, grocery stores, Linden Street, full of shops and great farm-to-table restaurants and a lakefront park.

Exactly as advertised and in the perfect location for what we needed. A great little house!

If you’re looking for a lake cottage, this is everything you’d want. It has rustic charm with some high end finishes. It’s well stocked with everything one might need for any length of stay. Fresh cut flowers to welcome you. A cool train travels right through the property but isn’t at all invasive. It came almost every morning around 8 with no train on two mornings and two trains two mornings. We stayed Saturday to Saturday. We had an unexpected hiccup caused by unprecedented environmental issues and the owner couldn’t have handled it better. He is the definition of recovering gracefully. If we ever find ourselves in the area again, we’d have no reservations about staying at The Green Duck. Run don’t walk to rent The Green Duck!

The green duck was very cozy and clean. The lake views were incredible and the hot tub was amazing. My husband and I absolutely loved our stay and plan on returning for another visit. Thank you Johnny for sharing your cottage!

What a cute little hideaway cottage right on Seneca Lake! We loved how cozy the vibe was and that we felt like we were completely isolated while being walking distance to two great wineries and able to hop in the car and be to other amazing wineries and towns within minutes. The host will provide you with a list of recommendations- listen to them all! We lived by these recommendations our entire stay.
