Overview

Romantic property with lots of storied features
Breakfast gets busy

For a romantic getaway in Finger Lakes wine country, Geneva on the Lake offers an intimate experience along Seneca Lake in south Geneva, New York. The small inn sits on 10 acres, home to original formal gardens dating back to the early 20th century. Inside, Lancellotti’s restaurant serves upscale Finger Lakes fare, with a nod to the 1592 Villa Lancellotti in Frascati, Italy – the inspiration for the 1910 estate that now houses Geneva on the Lake, which opened in 1981. This resort also features nightly live music in the restaurant, a parlor bar, a terrace, a 70-foot pool, a boathouse and in-room massages (for a fee). Recent guests particularly praised the gorgeous grounds and views. Some past visitors noted busy breakfasts, which was run by a seemingly overwhelmed staff. With Stickley’s furniture and free Wi-Fi access, suites range in layout, style and features – from a historic room with a library to a townhouse-style suite.

Here's a slice of Europe at the edge of Seneca Lake. Formally manicured grounds and Italian Renaissance architecture call to mind Tuscany. The stunning white manor house, built in 1914, has fireplaces of imported marble and rich upholstery and tapestries. Rooms are furnished with different styles of Stickley furniture.
