Canandaigua House | Skiers/snowboarders stay at Waterfront home/2.5 miles 2 historic mainst/Pets ok

3 Bedroom House in Canandaigua

In winter we can sleep a total of six and in summer a total of 11 (or bring less to sleep and enjoy the same registered day guests while you are there). You are most comfortable with 4 in colder months.
Can U imagine a lovely family/romantic getaway w/clear blue/green water on a private waterfront, fishing from our dock in summer, waking 2 morning sunrises & feeling the warmth of afternoon sun on UR back/weather permitting, seeing full moons reflecting on the lake once a month, starry nights/constellations, August shooting stars, the smell of UR BBQ sizzling UR favorite main dish/vegetables, listening 2 the gentle waves while sipping UR beverage lakeside, swimming/kayaking* off our private waterfront? Do U love sitting by water 15 steps from the house, taking walks looking @ the lake/hiking in nearby hills/parks, visiting wineries, breweries/taking cooking class or perhaps just reading in our cozy nook/playing piano or roasting marshmallows in our fire pit and making S'Mores?
Breakfast w/Santa is a separate fee on December 13&20th. The breakfast &house rental is non-refundable.

Review Score:   8
Summary: The home was much more spacious than expected. It was great having the sleeping rooms seperate from the living areas. The facilities had everything we needed. Just combine cars to travel. The parking area was small.
