Everything about this property is fantastic! It's in a perfect position in town and the town itself is positioned between Seneca Falls and Skaneatlas - two wonderful nearby towns that you can easily explore. The cabin has everything you (or you 1) could hope for. Bob and Elaine are so thoughtful in the amenities they provide (a starter bag of ice and bottled water were especially nice touches.) They were both so friendly, welcoming and wanting to make sure I had everything I wanted. I really enjoyed spending time relaxing inside the cabin (watching tv, reading by the window) and on their lawn. They have seating underneath an awning as well as seating at the edge of the water. They even provide corn that you can feed the ducks! There are so many wonderful places to explore in Auburn (the Harriet Tubman Visitors Center being the highest on the list, the Seward Home and Willard Memorial Chapel (with an all Tiffany designed interior!) of next highest in interest. And you can easily get to them all from this wonderful cabin on the lake.

Just a short (one night) stay for my wife and I - space with the rainy weather, the view toward the lake was wonderful. Hosts were communicative, flexible and understanding of our somewhat unpredictable travel plans - greatly appreciated.

Serenity on the Lake is "Serenity on the Lake". Lovely place to stay. Beautiful decor, quiet and peaceful.

We spent three nights and two days, too short, and it was pure peace and relaxation or as the pillow on the bed states, Serenity. I should start by saying that as far as rental properties go this place is above and beyond any I've stayed. The hosts, Bob and Elaine, love their little peace of heaven. The grounds are superbly manicured and inviting. Just grab a blanket and recline on one of the zero gravity chairs right by the lake, heavenly. The hosts Bob and his lovely wife know how to make you feel special with the unique touches they provide; fresh cut flowers from their garden, chocolates, bottled water and homemade banana bread. I asked Bob if I could grill and he promptly made the small grill available to me. The hosts could not be kinder. There are many places to stay but only one Serenity Place. Thank you Bob and Elaine. I will see you again real soon. God bless!!
