2W Lake is an elegant Queen Ann Victorian located in the heart of the Village of Skaneateles on the north shore of beautiful Skaneateles Lake. We are adjacent to the Village Park on the Lake and within walking distance of nationally recognized restaurants and shops. The village also has an award-winning spa, dinner boat cruises, wineries, art galleries, historical and boat museum, and unique shopping all in walking distance. Enjoy breakfast daily while watching the sailboats ply the lake.
Clark recently purchased the B&B after 32 years of designing in NYC. Originally from Ticonderoga, NY Clark grew up around a similar family business & has now come full circle. After many years of traveling throughout Europe & Asia he's ready to take all his design knowledge & apply it to 2W Lake to create a luxury, lakeside staple that makes everyone relax. This is a life time dream & an opportunity to create a warm inviting environment for his guests & friends while enjoying his new life at a slower pace.
Step back in time! Skaneateles is a quaint and beautiful village located on the North shore of Skaneateles Lake. There are numerous mansions on the lake shore. Village attractions include boat excursions, inns, restaurants and a spa, as well as boutique shopping and art galleries. The summer Skaneateles Festival of music is a seasonal event, as is the annual Skaneateles Antique and Classic Boat Show and the Dickens Christmas in Skaneateles with actors in period costume performing on the streets. Our Village is home to actors, artists, Polo matches, sailing regattas, a fabulous winery and much more.
