Geneva On The Lake

Welcome to Geneva On The Lake, an elegant, four-season and timeless resort and retreat nestled on 10 acres of lakefront property along the northern edge of Seneca Lake.

Lounge by the classically tiled swimming pool, enjoy croquet on the manicured lawn, or set out on the water with access to kayaks, paddleboats, and a pontoon from the private dock.

In the evening, sip cocktails at The Bar, then enjoy candlelit fine dining with live music at , the elegant estate restaurant overlooking the gardens and lake. With fresh, locally sourced ingredients and impeccable service, every meal is an occasion.
