This is the most amazing house with a kind owner and it was perfect for our wedding party to stay at. It felt like an actual bed and breakfast that you had all to yourself. It was the anchor to our wedding weekend and I'm very grateful for this place and the memories we had here. Drive slow coming in!

Fingerlakes weekend

We had a great time in the Fingerlakes and really enjoyed our stay here. The location is great, with a lot of opportunities for bird watching over the lake and bringing the dogs for walks around the area before heading out for the day. The house was very comfortable and had many nice sitting areas to enjoy the view

Great house for a family reunion

We had an excellent stay at Locke's Glen. The house is large and roomy and very well stocked. We had everything we needed in the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. The kayaks and paddle boards were fun. Excellent location for visiting wineries. David Locke was friendly and helpful at recommending things to do or places to eat.

Beautiful location for a family reunion

Loche's Glen was a beautiful place for our family reunion. The house is perfect for a large group. The kitchen is well stocked and made for a great family style dinner one evening. It has great open spaces for groups to sit and chat, and the fire pit was perfect for a late afternoon gathering. The host was friendly and came to check on our stay when we passed in the yard. The location is close to many wineries, breweries, and cheese tasting, giving everyone something to enjoy.

Nice Comfy extra large house

House was comfy, views incredible. Plenty of room to spread out and still have privacy. Wood burning fireplace and outdoor fire pits were great for our week with cooler weather. Kitchen well equipped. Location can’t be beat. Owner on adjacent property and available if needed. Communications easy.

Great view, a few opportunities

Dave was a great host and always answered quickly. The location on the lake is beautiful. Unfortunately the A/C (which is only some room units) was not on when we arrived and it was 80 in parts of the house. Could use a large table in great room to gather to eat and for games (Dave did let us know of folding tables in the garage which we brought in- problem solved) it had plenty of room for ten of us to stay, beds were comfortable.

Lovely home; needs some TLC

Locke's Glen is beautiful and well appointed. Neighbor- hood is quiet and safe. We had plenty of supplies and lots of room to spread out and relax. We especially enjoyed the deck and beautiful sunsets. The paddle boards and kayaks are easily accessible and a fun way to enjoy the lake. We have a few cosmetic suggestions. The grout in the upstairs shared bathroom needs cleaning, weeds along the gravel path need to be pulled and gravel replenished; clean out gutters-rain pours over edges. Overall we had a wonderful time! Lots to do and see. Worth the trip.

Could Use Improvements

We were underwhelmed with this house unfortunately. While the location was amazing and the house was large for the group we had, there were a few issues we had. The first was checking in the owner took 20-25 minutes to walk us through the house. We had two dogs and a toddler after a long drive just wanting to get into the house. The house was very warm. Not having air conditioning units in all of the bedrooms was tough given the warm weather. The basement room had a mildew smell as well. Finally the house could have been cleaner. We found some popcorn under a chair, dead flies and many fruit flies. The bathrooms had black mold. We had high expectations and we’re unfortunately let down.

Perfect and private little getaway for family and furry friends.

The property is great. I hate it when we stay somewhere and there is no safe place to walk the pups, but this house is perfectly situated at the end of a private road with tons of space for exploration. If you have multiple generations or families staying together the house is laid out so everyone gets their own little abode.I knocked off 1 star for cleanliness because the coffee makers had old coffee grounds up inside of them and the “tiki bar” down on the docs wasn’t really set up like the pictures online. We were there over spring break, so I guess it was a bit out of season. My husband refused to use the coffee makers so we went to Walmart and spent 12 on a new one. Again, not a huge deal, but with anything that uses water and there is a potential for mold you want to make sure there isn’t anything lingering. Everything else was spotless, even all of the kitchen cookware which is rare at a VRBO.I imagine this place is spectacular in warmer months. The dock and shallow water is probably perfect for families with water dogs and kids. The host really goes above and beyond to make sure guests have all the resources and info on hand to have a great stay. I will warn others that in Spring the nearby town is completely dead. We wanted some souvenirs and the stores were only open on the weekends and a lot of the wineries and breweries were the same. I am sure the place is hopping in the summer.

Private lake access

This house is amazing! Large enough to accommodate 5 couples (plus a child and infant), lots of room to socialize, and amazing lake access with a dock, paddle boards, kayaks, and a waterfront bar! My only comment for improvement is that the beds and pillows in the downstairs rooms where my family stayed (can’t vouch for the rest of the house) were pretty beat up and in need of replacements. Pull out couches are not usable. But literally everything else was amazing and we would absolutely stay here again. The sunsets and water access were unrivaled, and David was a wonderful host.

We loved our time here! The house is incredibly well-stocked with everything you need, and there’s lots of space for people to spread out if you have a crowd. The sunset views can’t be beat, and we even got a fireworks show from across the lake while sitting around the fire pit one night. We would happily stay here again!

Locke's Glen Seneca Lake

The size and layout of the house, plus its location are a 5. The amenities and cleanliness rate a 3. There is no AC on the 1st floor(main living area). The dishwasher was unusable for the 1st 2 days of our stay. This is significant with a large family who cook their meals. Though the dishwasher was not working on Sat. ,a phone call was required on Mon. to prompt the owner to fix it. The property has a long dock, but there is no ladder onto it from the water. So if you swim off the dock, you need to swim back to shore to get on again. This is a problem with children and older adults. Plus the owner's boat was stationed at the end of the dock until Sun around 1:00 PM. The dock should also be off limits to the owner's family members during rental weeks. This is a privacy and safety concern. Finally, the house needs a professional cleaning service to give it a thorough cleaning. The rental price is high end; and therefore the expectations are also high. Mr. Locke is congenial, but these are issues that I believe should be addressed for future renters.

Locke’s Glen Visit

After being separated for over a year and a half due to COVId, our family gathered for two wonderful weeks at Locke’s Glen. This vacation property is the best equipped I have rented. Everyone from the 4 year old to the seniors enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boards and access to the water. When we had questions or requests, David responded quickly. We celebrated a 21st birthday, Father’s Day and a High School Graduation during our stay. It was the perfect setting and the memories we made will last the rest of our lives.
