About this cottage rental

Centrally located between the gorges of Ithaca and the canal side of Seneca Falls, you'll find this cozy bungalow nestled in a wooded clearing. Your time to relax, and unwind has arrived!

Enter through the side door of this gem. Anticipation awaits as you turn the corner. Through the hallway the chalet style windows offer a spectacular view of the wooded area surrounding the cottage. Your perfect Finger Lakes getaway has just begun!

The open floor plan is ideal for entertaining friends and family alike. You'll find meal prep easy with a kitchen that comes fully stocked with all your favorite cooking and baking ware. A large island with breakfast bar separates the kitchen and living area. Chat with the chef of your group while they prepare a dish to remember.

Comfortable sofas offer a nice retreat for curling up with a cup of coffee in the morning. Sip a cup of Finger Lakes brew, and plan your adventures for the day.

Completing the lower level, you'll find two bedrooms, both with queen beds and garden views. The main hallway of Bufflehead Bungalow offers entry to the full bath with shower/tub combo.

Upstairs, a loft with beautiful knotty pine ceilings and soft pastel colored bedding is available for extra sleeping.

Outside, a large wrap around deck can be found just off the living area. A glass of Finger Lakes wine is the perfect addition while enjoying the sounds of nature and tuning out everyday hustle and bustle – life at the lake is easy!

Across the road, a private lake front is yours to enjoy with 100 foot of natural lake frontage. Spend your days at the lake kayaking the shores, sunbathing on the dock, or picking up the lake glass that will wash up on the shore. Build a fire in the pit and watch the sun set, and stars shine through the night's sky.

Whether you're coming for Cornell or Ithaca graduation, a wedding in the area, or a Finger Lakes wine tour – Bufflehead Bungalow is located among some of our Finger Lakes favorite destinations. Be sure to stop in at nearby Sheldrake Winery, take a hike along the trails of Taughonnock State Park, and treat yourself to a homemade ice cream treat from the Cayuga Lake Creamery. Enjoy a trip to Cayuga Shoreline for local food and drinks. One trip at Bufflehead Bungalow will have your group of travelers calling this their new “home away from home” before you leave. Call and make your reservation today!

The house was clean, very comfortable, and located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. Most of our stay was well spent enjoying the private beach area and refreshing Cayuga Lake. The lakefront is a short stroll across the quiet road and down a number of steps but is well worth it for the large private waterfront. Our dogs had the best time and were exhausted by the second day of our stay. We would consider this property again for future vacations.

Everything was mostly perfect. One of the ceiling fans I. Family room was not working which wasn’t a problem because it wasn’t hot the week we were there. Would have been if it was hot. A king size bed would have been perfect but bedrooms are small. Other than those two things we had a perfect vacation. Lots of sea glass at dock which was fun finding.

My husband and I stayed at the Buffalo Bungalow in October during the peak color of leaves. The bungalow overlooked the lake with a beautiful view of the sunrise. The place was very clean and comfortable. The grassy slope up to the house was a bit slippery and steep, but other than that, we loved it. We would definitely return.

Loved this house, needs to be cleaned of its cob webs though. Not only up high but even at eye level and down low. The lakefront access was amazing. The door to get in is up a steep grass hill and was slippery on our wet weekend away. Needs some stairs to get up there.
