Reel Simple: Your Home Away from Home

Welcome to Reel Simple, your charming lakeside getaway on beautiful Conesus Lake. This immaculate three-bedroom, two-bath cottage offers a perfect mix of rustic warmth and modern comfort, making it ideal for families, friends, or anyone looking to unwind in style.

Inside, you'll find double-planked hardwood floors and tasteful décor that reflect a cozy, “Pottery Barn” inspired style. The living room centers around a stunning stone gas fireplace, perfect for relaxing evenings with loved ones or quiet nights with a good book. A flat-screen TV adds modern entertainment, while the open floor plan connects the living area seamlessly to the kitchen and dining space.

The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless-steel appliances, including a new refrigerator and freezer, and features updated countertops and sink. Whether cooking a quick meal or preparing a feast, you'll find everything you need here. The adjacent formal dining room and sunroom provide a bright, inviting spot to enjoy meals while gazing out at the lake.

All three bedrooms are on the second floor, each uniquely decorated with modern touches. The master bedroom offers a double bed and private bathroom, while the two other bedrooms provide twin beds and a trundle — perfect for families or groups traveling together. A shared bathroom on this level completes the sleeping area.

Outside, enjoy stunning views from the large patio surrounded by beautiful flowerbeds. The lakefront location offers a gradual slope into the water, making it easy to wade, swim, or launch one of the kayaks or canoe included with your stay. Spend your days on the water or relaxing on the dock, soaking in the serene surroundings.

Reel Simple sits at the very south end of Conesus Lake, offering breathtaking views stretching all the way up the lake, a rare treat for visitors. Nearby, you'll find hiking trails, wineries, golf courses, and all the classic Finger Lakes activities.
