We love your kids but please leave them at home on Saturday. Friday out on the boats or Sunday at Seneca Lake State Park, please bring them!
The maps on the gallery tab highlight the hotels, wedding venue, and a couple other spots. We recommend staying walking distance to Linden Street to have access to coffee, restaurants, and bars. There are also docks if you want to swim and a walking path along the water within walking distance (in front of 41 Lakefront Hotel). Alie and I rented an airbnb at 98 Washington St from Wednesday to Monday. Finding a house on the lake is also a good option, but there aren’t that many of them for rent. Try to stay at Whites Point or north of there if you’ll need transportation on Saturday.
Yes, there is a block of rooms at the Holiday Inn. There is also a discount code at the Fairfield Inn. See the Travel tab for more info.
If your party is around 6-8 people, you should call ahead of time for a reservation. If your party is bigger than that, you may need to split into smaller groups. Most wineries do not accept reservations for more than 6 or 8 people. The policy is often listed on the website.
You have two options. Roy’s Marina (used more, owners are nicer people) 4398 Clarks Point Geneva, NY 14456 Contact: Call 315.789.3094 Price: - Pontoon boats (fitting 8 people) are $350 for 12-4pm or $400 for 8am-4pm, plus tax and gas. - Open bows are the same price (not sure how many they fit) Details: - They take a credit card to hold the reservation but I don't think you're charged until afterwards. Not sure about the cancellation policy, confirm when you talk to them. - You drive the boats yourself and do not need to show a boaters license. - The pontoons are supposed to hold 8 people, although we have squeezed a couple more on in years past without telling them. Normally one or two people go to pick up the boat at Roy's, and then the rest of the group is picked up at the docks by 41 Lakefront Hotel. - Adult life jackets provided for sure, but will need to ask about kids life jackets when you call. Stiver’s (another option, probably nicer boats 401 Boodys Hill Rd) Waterloo, NY 13165 Contact: Book directly online or call 315.789.5520 Price: - Pontoon boats (fitting 10 people) are $500 for 8 hour rental starting at 8, 9, or 10am. - Power boats (fitting 8 people) are $650 for 8 hour rental starting at 8:30am. Details: - Please read details and rules when booking online. No refunds so it’s a gamble with the weather.
Our plan is to have some sort of brunch catered! We won't be providing alcohol for everyone this day so BYOB if you want to have some beverages with us. We also have the space reserved all day. If you're sticking around, we encourage you to bring premade food or take advantage of the grills on site if you want to eat again in the afternoon.
