Stay After Forge Cellars

Five minutes from Forge Cellars.
Two properties on Seneca Lake.

Rhône-hands on Seneca Riesling — then a waterfront cottage, five minutes down the hill.

Your Day at Forge Cellars

What the visit actually looks like.

Forge is the Alsace-meets-Seneca project — a partnership between a Burgundian négociant and a Hector winemaker, producing single-vineyard dry Rieslings that taste unlike anything else in the region. The tasting room is small, serious, and overlooks a steep hillside vineyard. Ask for the Classique flight and whatever single-vineyard they're pouring that week.

What Happens Next

Then you drive five minutes and let the sunset do the rest.

Then you drive five minutes to the Landing and let the hillside fade into the lake. Smooth Sailing is the couple's pick — a waterfront cottage on a quiet cove where the sunset reads like the natural continuation of the Classique.

Two Properties

Pick the one that fits the day.

Our Pick for Forge Cellars

Smooth Sailing FLX

A waterfront cottage for two.

A cottage on a quiet cove with western exposure. One bedroom, one dock, the full arc of a Seneca sunset. Built for couples who wanted the lake without anyone else in the frame.

Or, if the day is different

Lakeside Landing FLX

Five bedrooms on the shoreline.

Private dock, fire pit, two hundred feet of Seneca Lake waterfront. Built for groups, families, and weekends that don't want a second venue. Kitchen is a real kitchen; bedrooms are real bedrooms.
