Luxury Log Cabin in the Woods on Skaneateles Lake

Rustic Elegance!

Imagine a vacation in the wilderness on one of America's most exclusive lakes -- the resting spots for Presidents, movie stars and professional athletes.

Enjoy a stay in a modern log home elegantly appointed in the midst of nature on 200 feet of private lake frontage.

Relax on the covered porches among the deer and turkey while waiting to go fishing, boating or swimming on one of the world's most pristine waters.

Escape from the hot, humid summer air while refreshing yourself with the shaded lake breezes or choose to enjoy the sunshine on the lakefront.

Pamper yourself with the luxuries of a home theater, fitness gym, hot tub and internet service or catch up on some reading in front of the stone fireplace -- not your 'typical' cottage rental.

Explore the Village of Skaneateles' unique shops, boutiques and world class restaurants.

Take the 5/20 drive while exploring the wine country, rolling hills and the Finger Lakes Region of beautiful Upstate New York.

Rejuvenate Your Soul ... during your stay at Paul's Cabin on Skaneateles Lake, NY.

Note: Paul’s Cabin is accessed down a sloped forest gravel road and four wheel drive is required. (We have alternate parking suggestions for 2 wheel drive). You can expect the drive to be part of your adventure.

Annual girls weekend for 5. This was a new location this year instead of the beach...The serene surroundings were perfect, a little chill in the air and the town of Skaneatles is charming. Basement bedroom did not have adequate heater flow and the overall cabin needed a good clean and some recaulking but we enjoyed the rustic accommodations. Thank you for a great getaway.

Cool Cozy Cabin!

Paul's Cabin was a fantastic find for a Fall getaway on VRBO! Various living levels with a fantastic view overlooking the lake and lots of great space for the family. There is a mile long drive on dirt road to access cabin, so need to be prepared for that, but that just adds to the experience! Close enough to town (20 min) Well equipped, great hot tub and amenities. Caretaker Mike is very accessible for any questions/issues that may arise. Had a fantastic time with the family, it's a hidden gem!!

Beautiful spot on a beautiful lake. Paul is an excellent host with great communication and his caretaker Mike is absolutely fantastic. The home is clean and comfortable with lots of different spaces to hang out in. Our group loved being on the lake every day, enjoying all it had to offer. Many great memories were made!

Awesome family trip at Paul’s Cabin!

We had an awesome 4th of July week at Paul’s cabin!! We came last year for a long weekend and booked for a full week this summer. The location is great (secluded in the woods with beautiful lake front views), and we loved the dock and boat. We read a previous review that the hot tub wasn’t working, and asked Paul about it who was very responsive and had it fixed and working perfectly for our trip. We couldn’t get our daughter out of it! Loved the campfires at night and hiking up the road in the mornings. I’m sure we will be back! Highly recommend.

Graduation Celebration

We had beautiful weather and enjoyed the incredible views from all levels of the house. Fire pit made for a fun first night celebration. A little disappointed that the hot tub was not in working order and we were not notified about it. Also instructions for wifi did not work and manager did not return our call.

Wish we had another week!

This was our first family vacation since our children were little. The cabin was perfect for us. There was plenty of room to gather both inside and out. The trip down to and up from the lake was a bit challenging as was the drive in, but that said it was wonderful to have family time in a beautiful setting! Thank you Paul and crew! ~The Barrett Brigade

Amazing property towards the south end of skaneateles lake. Right on the water with all of the amenities you need to cook, grill and relax in the hot tub after enjoying a day on one of the cleanest lakes in the country. We look forward to being back next year!

Dreamlike vacation

What a magical cabin in the woods! We were so impressed with the indoor and outdoor living spaces. We spent most of our time outside, on the deck, on the dock, at the fire pit, in the hot tub and, of course, on the lake. Driveway was definitely a challenge. Also have to mention the property manager, Mike. Mike went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect!

Wonderful log cabin home on crystal clear Skaneateles lake. Paul’s cabin is beautiful and very well equipped. We especially enjoyed the brand new smoker. The house comes with just about everything you need. Would definitely recommend 4-wheel drive and plan your groceries so you minimize trips in and out. You won’t want to leave the lake and the property!

A spectacular home on beautiful Skaneateles Lake

Although it rained profusely, our stay was enjoyable. The wrap-around porch provided a place outside for socializing, and the interior is special. Paul and his wife have thought of everything to make a stay there hassle free, and Mike, the caretaker, was prompt, available and helpful. The location is remote and spectacular (Take heed to the admonition to have a 4 wheel drive vehicle).

We really enjoyed our stay at Paul’s cabin . We were really impressed by how clean all the sheets and towels were and the whole cabin. I’m fussy about that and they didn’t disappoint , and the views were amazing . we enjoyed the indoor and outdoor fires and the hot tub as it was cold during our stay .I highly reccomend Paul’s cabin it is a great place to get away .we will be planning another trip in the summer .the town is only a short drive away and it is full of all different shops and restaraunt s .Paul and mike are very easy to reach and always available if needed. The only thing I would say is they aren’t kidding when they reccomend a 4 wheel drive vehicle .we are very glad we took the pickup truck .
