About this house rental
In the early 1900's, The San Felice was a “villa hotel” on Seneca Lake adjacent to a historic steamboat landing, and that hospitality tradition continues today. There are 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. Three bedrooms have a private bath, two share the main bath upstairs and there is a 1/2 bath downstairs. The kitchen has seating for 18 people. A covered porch wraps around the home, and has a sink, washer & dryer. Behind the house is a gazebo and a charcoal grill. A dock extends into the lake.
The San Felice is located in the heart of Seneca Lake wine country. Wineries within a ten-minute drive include: Red Newt Cellars, Hector Wine Company, Damiani Wine Cellars, Leidenfrost Vineyards, Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards, J R Dill Winery, Magnus Ridge Winery, Chateau Lafayette Reneau, Rasta Ranch Vineyards, Bloomer Creek Vineyard, Penguin Bay Winery, Wagner Vineyards Estate Winery, Standing Stone Vineyards, Kings Garden Vineyard, Lamoreaux Landing Wine Cellars, Silver Thread Vineyard, Caywood Vineyards, Shalestone Vineyards, Bagley's Poplar Ridge Vineyards, and Silver Springs Winery.
There will be a person nearby to handle any difficulties.
If you're planning a trip to the Finger Lakes and searching for lodging, dining, things to do, wineries, breweries, distilleries, and beyond - you've come to the right spot!
Wondering where to begin? Here are a few ideas: nearby Watkins Glen State Park's Gorge Trail boasts 19 waterfalls along a 2 1/2 mile trail. The Rim Trail (which is dog-friendly) at the State Park is open year-round and offers a neat perspective, skirting the top edge of the gorge. Watkins Glen International offers a full schedule of adrenaline-pumping racing action. If you want to get up close and personal with the race circuit, check out Drive the Glen, where you can drive your car on the famed road course. Or get out on the water with a sail on a historic schooner or perhaps a sightseeing cruise is more your style.

Very simple check in. Great kitchen and dining area for all 12 of us! Excellent location, right on the lake. The wrap around deck really is the best providing the right temperature somewhere!

The setting is absolutely beautiful. The size of the house was perfect for our family reunion. We LOVED the wraparound porch! We had fun exploring the area and loved our hike at the Watson Glenn Gorge. The only negative we experienced was the outdoor grill was extremely dirty - it took over an hour for us to clean before we could use it. It's clean now! Thank you for sharing your beautiful historic villa - it's a very special house!

Family from Detroit and family from Boston met at the beautiful Finger Lakes area near Watkins, Glen, New York to attend the IMSA race and enjoy a get together. The property was so unique and is located in such a beautiful setting. The wraparound porch was used morning, noon and night. We enjoyed beautiful sunrises and beautiful sunsets. There’s plenty of room for lots of people. The hosts were outstanding with communication. You are also just a short and easy drive to town (and the racing circuit!) So many wineries, distilleries and brew pubs along the way! You’re sure to have a lovely stay!
