Description Description
Enjoy all the Finger Lakes has to offer when you retreat to Russell’s Rendezvous.  Pure bliss best describes this Seneca Lake vacation home! Located on a private street, this home features modern comfort and amenities that will please guests of all ages!

Entering the driveway, parking for 2 cars is directly in front of the garage, with 2 additional spaces along the side of the road across the street from the house.  The main entry leads into a small foyer, which opens up into a spacious great room.  Ideal for entertaining, the great room features a comfortable living room set with a romantic gas fireplace, French doors that lead out to the new covered deck overlooking the lake, picture windows that provide a fantastic view from the dining area, and an expansive country style kitchen that is well-equipped to prepare large meals in comfort.  To the right of the living room is the master suite, offering a King Bed and private bathroom with his/her sinks, large Jacuzzi tub, and separate shower.  An additional bedroom with a Queen Bed is located in the rear, along with another full bathroom accessible just off the foyer.

In the lower level you will find a family room with a large TV and gas fireplace for entertaining. New updates include a 16 foot shuffleboard, multi-purpose table with a top that coverts into bumper pool or poker, dart board, foosball coffee table and an entire cabinet stocked with games and puzzles! Directly off the family room is the lower level deck and hot tub!  An additional bedroom and full bathroom are located just off the family room.

Multiple levels of decks allow guests to spread out and enjoy a variety of activities, whether soaking in the hot tub, working on a tan, or enjoying a good book while watching the children play at the beach!  A lakeside firepit will provide the perfect spot to relax after a long day.  The dock is 100 feet long, and features multiple boat cleats and a set of boat whips for securing a boat.  The water depth is gradual, ideal for wading and small children.

Located just a few miles from Penn Yan, Russell's Rendezvous is convenient to area shopping, restaurants, and most conveniences.  Right off the main road is a small diner that serves fantastic breakfasts and lunches and a variety of pastries and desserts. Within a mile of Russell's Rendezvous  you will find the Keuka Lake Outlet Trail, this 7 mile trail connects Keuka and Seneca Lakes. The Seneca Wine Trail runs right along Route 14, providing easy access to some of the region’s best wineries!

About a tenth of a mile away, through the grassy field and tree edged area, Rail Road Tracks run behind this property.  Kids have enjoyed hearing the sound of the engine that passed infrequently.

Finger Lakes Premier Properties had a great selection of lake houses in the Finger Lakes. I rented the house to welcome back some family that has moved away from the area, and this house was the perfect reminder of how beautiful home is. The house was very clean upon arrival and the checkin/checkout process was a breeze. The welcome bag provided by FLPP was a wonderful touch and showcased some amazing local coffee.

Russel's Rendezvous is the perfect location for a visit to Seneca lake! The central location allows easy travel to Geneva, Watkins's Glen, and Pen Yan. The home is well-stocked with everything you could need, with ample space for all of our guests, and a view you can't beat!! We've rented the home twice now, and can't wait to go back to it!

Seneca Lake
Just recently stayed at Russell's Rendezvous on Seneca Lake and the property was one of the best. We have been staying with premier for quite a few years now and we always say each house was better than the last but this house topped all. The property was easy to get to, clean, the view from the kitchen alone was breathtaking let alone the deck, the rooms were spacious and everyone had their own bathroom, and the hot tub just is the icing on top. We did not get to use the fire pit but it was a really nice one. What a great property and premier always leaves cute little notes/ things around the house for their renters. Book this property, you will not be disappointed!

The house is right on the water, has plenty of room in and around the area to accommodate the amount of people staying there. Overall, it was very pretty and convenient being right on the water!

The cleanliness and attention to detail exceeded our expectations,
We chose the Finger Lakes Premier Properties to find and book a home in the area for our 10th Wedding Anniversary. This was our first trip to the area, and they offered a lot of information that was very helpful for our trip, and the selection of available rentals was excellent. We were pleased to find the rental unit was as described in the listing, and we were pleasantly surprised at the amenities provided to us in the home, and by the rental agency, including some supplies for our trip, and a bottle of wine to celebrate our anniversary! They ensured we had a great trip! We will definitely book through them again, and can't wait to return!!!

Absolute Dream

This place was absolutely beautiful!! You cannot have a better view of the lake. The house is spacious and has a whole finished lower level that includes more hang out space. The weather was perfect during the days we stayed and it made everyone fall in love even more with the property. I got ready here for my wedding and it couldn’t have been more perfect.

10 check out is a little early. Also would be helpful to know there is toilet paper, towels, dish soap. Those little things. We brought some and didn’t end up needing it. I guess it depends on how long people are there. Also the paddle boat doesn’t quite work that well. Kayak and paddle board were awesome. Neighbors were so friendly!

Great gem on the lake!

We did a girls trip and stayed in this beautiful home! The kitchen was well-equipped and large to cook big meals, although we did not. The multiple levels of decks were fantastic and we loved watching the sunrise over the lake from the top deck. Plenty of storage space, especially in bathrooms. I do wish there was more seating in the main living room area, but we made it work. Lovely home and fantastic stay!

The house is very comfortable and spacious. The view is fantastic. However, if you want to swim, be aware that there is a lot of vegetation that makes swimming a challenge. The owner does provide a kayak, paddle board, and paddle boat.

Our group was six adults and Russel's was the perfect place. Very clean, well stocked kitchen in terms of dishes and utensils. Highly recommend bringing extra bath and kitchen towels as well as paper products, as they are very limited in what is provided. Beautiful property with two decks, plenty of outside and inside seating. Seneca Lake is a wonderful setting with so many Wineries, Breweries, Distilleries and Restaurants near by.

Great Vacation Home
This property is as pictured. Beautiful, clean and very well stocked. They thought of everything. Every utensil or cooking small appliance you could think of. It was also stocked with firewood, kindling and lighter for starting a campfire. We used the kayak and the paddle boat and there were life jackets of all sizes. I liked how they had all the information on the light switches, and information on how to operate the TV which is different for all homes. Location was great.

Beautiful house

The house was beautiful, clean and spacious. We appreciated the labels on light switches. It would have been nice to have another recliner in living room as there was seating for only 3. Unfortunately it rained 90% of our stay. With that being said, the canvas awning has some holes prohibiting us from sitting on deck during the rain. Overall we made the best of everything.

Best Lake House Ever!

This house was the PERFECT get away for a group of friends. Hot tub - check. Lake access - check. Various water sports - check. The most beautiful lake view from the kitchen/living room/decks - CHECK. The beds were also crazy comfortable (coming from someone that is generally so picky), and it had plenty of space for whatever we wanted to do. It was also in amazing shape and the electronic door code made entry so easy. We've all spoken about how we want to stay at this property again it was just that good!

This was a great property to stay at for our low key bachelorette weekend. We drove a 17 foot RV and were able to park it on the street comfortably. The property and view are amazing!
