About this cottage rental
Located just north of Aurora on Cayuga Lakes east side you'll find La Bella Vita. This truly remarkable lake home is located right by the water's edge. This luxury home is the quintessential Finger Lakes choice for upscale traveling and family togetherness.
Inside, windows and doors allow for lake views from each angle of the house. Rain or shine, sun up until sun down, the views from inside allow you to enjoy the beauty of Cayuga Lake all day long.
Perfect blends of neutral colors splash throughout the great room. A wet bar tucked between the great room and dining area provides the perfect place for your new Finger Lakes beer and wine to be on display.
Tucked just around the corner of this open floor plan is a picture-perfect kitchen. White and grey custom cabinetry is accented with beautiful granite counter tops. Be sure to make time for a visit at a local roadside stand for some fresh Finger Lakes produce. A breakfast nook offers the perfect space to happily gather with friends and family while the chef of your group prepares your favorite meals.
A formal dining table offers an expansive wooden dining table-perfect for family style, sit-down meals.
Throughout this large home, five bedrooms are yours to choose from. Upstairs or down, each bedroom provides a relaxing setting for your time away from home.
The lower level of La Bella Vita offers a cozy retreat, elegant gas fireplace and entrance to the lakeside yard. A second kitchen makes entertaining a breeze while spending time at the lake front.
While the inside of La Bella Vita offers numerous luxury amenities, designed to ensure your comfort, it is outside where you will discover why so many people love Cayuga Lake! The plush yard leads you to your private dock where you will spend hot summer days swimming and splashing! After experiencing days of outdoor fun and adventure, come home to a dip in the lake or bring the marshmallows for nights spent around the outdoor fire pit.
Whether you're coming for a wedding at the Aurora Inn, wine tasting at award-winning Heart & Hands Wine Company, exploring the natural gorges and waterfalls of Ithaca, or spending the day shopping at Mackenzie Childs, you can't beat this ideal location. Call us to book your Finger Lakes vacation!

We had a great time! Right on the water! It was a huge house. Plenty of room for 8 adults. Loved the firepit and couch big enough for all of us.

This was the perfect location for our group of friends to stay while attending our college reunion. So much space and the house was incredibly clean. We will definitely be back to stay here again in the future!

My friends and I spent the weekend at this beautiful property to celebrate my 50th birthday. Words cannot describe how gorgeous the house is! The deck is enormous and we watched the sunset each night as it set on the lake, it was breathtaking! The hot tub and sauna room was also amazing and we had so much fun enjoying it after the sun set! The kitchen was gorgeous, all of the rooms were cozy and the blankets were extremely comfortable! It was a short ride to all of the wineries, very convenient! Absolutely no complaints at all. You should stay here!!! :):):)

The house is spacious, cozy, and well equipped for gatherings with family and friends. The living area is perfect for lounging and watching a movie. The deck and outdoor space is perfect to spend relaxing evenings near the water.

Amazing view, lovely home. We had an amazing time!!
The only star I would dock was for cleanliness. There was a lot of leftover trash from the previous renter and the plates and dishes provided were a bit soiled.
However, communication was excellent and issues were resolved promptly.
Thank you so much!! We will definitely be staying again.

Overall stay at the property was amazing. Hands down the best part about this property is the view that it offers of the lake, definitely worth the stay. The house itself is huge with enough space to accommodate my group of 12. They even had an extra pull out bed that were not accounted for in the listing. It also has a fully stocked kitchen with most of the kitchen supplies you'll need.
The only negative comment regarding the property is that you have to be very mindful of the neighbors. We received a visit from the Sheriff's office our first night in regarding a noise complaint. The Deputy's stated that they could not hear any noise when pulling up to the house, however it was past 10pm which is the noise curfew and the walls are paper thin so our voices probably carried. We just had to be a bit more courteous throughout our stay.

Best Lake House EVER
Absolutely stunning, well appointed, and extremely spacious.
This is the only lake house worth renting in the Finger Lakes as far as I'm concerned.

Spacious home on the water
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The house had plenty of space for our group of 8. The kitchen was fully equipped and they provided most items like soap, towels, sheets, toilet paper. The bathrooms and bedrooms were clean and spacious. The only issue was that there were multiple bugs in the basement and some throughout other rooms in the house.

House was gorgeous neighbors are terrible
Not happy that we had spoken to property management ahead of time before booking this house about having a few extra guests on Saturday and it was approved (or we wouldn’t have booked this place). Saturday nosey neighbors turned us in to property management and were disturbed during our stay by phone calls and security showing up. Otherwise the house was perfect and the view was even better!
