Beautiful views and rooms.
The hotel was so tastefully renovated and it offered nice amenities. The Owners were especially thoughtful in providing a private space for our extended family and friends to gather and they were kind and accommodating. I highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely Updated Motel on Seneca Lake
Very nice updated motel with lovely, accommodating hosts. Beautiful view of the Lake from our room with outdoor balcony, too. Cute igloos are available with heaters for four to sit “ outside” and enjoy the day or evening. There is a restaurant but we did not eat there. We pull come back here again.
