Cozy secluded villa-hot tub, panoramic view, waterfalls, gorge-south skaneateles | Villa in Homer
4 Bedroom Villa in Moravia, Homer
Seven and a half acres of private wilderness, bordered by a land conservation trust, transform this from a stay into an expedition. Trails woven through the property lead to hidden waterfalls, dramatic gorges, and overlooks with views that stretch uninterrupted. Unlike typical rentals, here you don’t just see nature—you’re immersed in it, with every path promising discovery. It’s not just land; it’s a living, breathing playground for the soul.
