About this cottage rental

Located on a quiet side road 30 min from Ithaca and 5 min from Treleaven Winery, our four season lakehouse is ideal for family time at the lake or a romantic getaway. The house is comfortable and thoughtfully furnished. With a sunny flat yard, hot tub, deck, new lakeside shack, kayaks, long dock, shady grass patio by the water, fire pit and rec room, there are lots of spaces to spread out. We face the afternoon sun and sunsets, and have deep, clear water. Sit by the lake and feel your blood pressure drop! New pictures coming in May...

Our cottage was built in 1951 and is 1100 square feet. We bought it in 2020 and spent over a year and a half remodeling every room, converting the wood floor garage into a recreation room, and building a new lakeside shack by the shore. We've tried for the "looks like its always been there" design approach and used sustainable materials and energy options.

The living room looks out to the lake with a large window and is open the kitchen. It has ductless heat pump/air conditioning and a pellet stove. The kitchen is fully supplied, including a dishwasher. Next to the living room is a dining area and den/TV room, which has a new high quality queen size sleeper sofa and curtains to create privacy. The main bedroom has a new queen size bed and a large window facing the lake, and the second bedroom has two twin size beds with new mattresses. The bathroom has a shower/tub combination and there is a washer and dryer. We have drinkable filtered well water.

In the back yard we have a hot tub and a new deck with a table, chairs and gas grill. The flat yard is a nice place for yard games and we have a fire pit with supplied wood. There are about twenty steps to reach the shoreline area, which is very few compared with most Cayuga lake properties.

The converted recreation room has a ping pong table, couch and chair, "vintage" boombox, and board games.

At the shore there is a nice shady area in the summer for sitting and the new shack with a mini fridge, cozy/romantic lighting, couch and table. The dock extends out to a deep section of the lake and is wonderful for jumping into the water. We have kayaks, paddle boards and life vests for guests to use. (Not available late Nov. through April for cold water safety)

We really enjoyed staying at this cottage! It is apparent that Adam has taken a lot of care in renovating the cottage with quality craftsmanship, materials and appliances, while still retaining the charm of this property. We liked the new kayaks and paddleboards. We spent time relaxing in the small lake house on the shores of the lake. The kids liked having ping pong tournaments each night. I would recommend this cottage -- it is a great lake experience!

Everything was perfectly set up. The Lake house was clean,charming and well equipped for our stay. It was so relaxing, sunsets incredible, night sounds put us to sleep every night and the lake was so soft and inviting. We visited the Aurora Inn for dinner, it was wonderful as always! Treleaven Winery was so close… beautiful venue, good times! Aurora Shoe Company not far from the lake house was a great place to pick up some of their awesome shoes too! We look forward to our next stay♥️

My sisters and I were looking for a lake rental, with lake views and a dock, this rental met our expatiations and more. The rental also came with paddleboards and Kayaks, which we enjoyed on the lake. We had a wonderful weekend exploring the local wineries by boat, (highly recommend exploring by boat)and just relaxing. The accommodations were clean, comfortable and we felt right at home. Would definitely come here again.

Nice property and attentive host. Good vacation getaway spot right on the lake. We especially liked the shed down by the water for the kids when they needed a break.

Check in was easy and the cottage was cool and spotless on our arrival. The gardens and path to the lake are beautiful and the kayaks and paddle boards were a huge hit with our teens. The sunset with a glass of wine on the dock or the hot tub are the perfect place to relax after exploring the local area. The cottage has pretty much all you could ever need and we ate at home on the deck most days. We enjoyed hiking and swimming in the waterfall at Robert Treman state park and a great trip to the Corning Museum of Glass and the girls enjoyed the glass blowing class there too. Overall a great stay and can’t wait to return- thank you Adam!

This property has everything you need to be comfortable and have a wonderful stay! Very relaxing, from the hot tub to the ping pong table and everything in between. Would love to come back when the weather is a bit warmer and have some more time near the lake, it is beautiful. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend at the cottage, very conveniently located to nice wineries and great hiking. Excellent communication from the host as well!

Wonderful home on Cayuga Lake. The views from the main bedroom, and both living areas are extraordinary. Many thoughtful touches such as paper products and soap provided, along with a selection of games and books. While our weather was cooler, and we did not get in the water, we still spent hours on the dock, taking in the stunning view, especially at sunset. The house is even more spacious than it appears in photos, and everything was clean and comfortable. There are wineries and a brewery just a few minutes away. We had a great week and look forward to returning.
