The cottage is located on a point on the periphery of a permanent-stay RV campground, but it is separate from the campground. After Oct. 10, the campground was closing up for the winter, so our stay was quiet. I expect it would be different in the summer. Not bad, just more activity in the campground as well as the whole area. The location is about a half mile or so off the main road, and continuing past there is a large marina and community of seasonal and year-round homes. Easy walking, and it seems a popular walking route, as we saw several people doing so each morning. The clean kitchen is well stocked with kitchen gear and appliances, so much so that there almost isn't room for it all. No place for groceries, and compact area for food prep. We expanded the table to its full length and turned it around, which worked out well for our food stuff. Living room is spacious but sparse, though adequate. The main queen bed and bedding were comfortable. The space itself is tight, with not much room for bags or to hang things. The second room with a bunk was not made up, and seemed to be more of a storage area at this point in the season. However, if spiffed up, would be an adequate second room. Bathroom was fine. Clean shower. Good towels. Deck overlooks the lake. Some pruning and trimming is in order to have a better view. About two stories worth of wood steps down to the dock and a little beach. Good: ducks and heron are nice to watch. Bad: They poop on the dock a lot. The village has a small full-service grocery for essentials, and there are places for pizza/subs/burgers for quick food. It's otherwise a low-key area. But for the curious and adventurous there are interesting eateries and sites within 20 minutes. Though the east side of Cayuga Lake has wineries (and we enjoyed the two in this town), the mother lode is on the west side. Recommend all of the well-kept state parks, primarily located near Ithaca, south end of Seneca Lake, and also Filmore SP, on south end of Owasco Lake. Cottage summary: Would stay again. Owner was pleasant, helpful and available nearby if needed (but didn't!). Recommend more thorough vacuuming to stay on top of cobwebs that are behind things and in corners, and also dog hair perhaps left from previous guests. Hooks near main door and in BR would be useful.

Had a wonderful time staying at this cottage. The property was just as presented. Very comfortable. The proximity to the lake was wonderful with a nice area to sit to the left of the dock. One of our favorite parts were dinners on the deck overlooking the lake while watching the sun set. Midge was very communicative and helpful. I would highly recommend this property for a peaceful vacation.

The house was good for 2 friends on a fishing trip. Great sunsets from the deck. alot of steps down to the water but worth it. Best trip EVA!!!! Thanks Midge M & M

Great view of and access to the lake. Even when the weather wasn't good for outdoor action it was fun and relaxing to watch how the lake reacted from the comfort of the deck or even inside. Near perfect setup for a week's stay in May for my spouse and myself.

Would love to go back and stay again!

I had a wonderful time at this property. The views of the lake were magnificent. I would love to go back there again.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this perfect little cottage. The water at the lakefront is clear and calm. A few fun places to explore are short drives away!

The kitchen is fully furnished with dishes/pots, etc, but there was no place to put groceries or items we brought from home to cook. No place to put things in the bathrooms. The wifi router is in another cabin so when it went out, we couldn't do anything about it. Midge was quick to fix it though--no problem. The cabin is clean, pleasant, and the view wonderful. It's on a hill though, so take that into consideration for young children.

Loved the location. Quiet and a great view of the lake. Excellent place to unwind and disconnect. I found the short drive to wineries, shopping and sightseeing enjoyable because the scenery was beautiful.

Fantastic, relaxing stay in an amazing location. Favorite memories of the trip are the hikes in the parks (Fillmore Glen, Watkins Glen, Letchworth) and the fires by the lake in the fire pit, with a very happy dog swimming in the lake. We were sad to leave, and returned feeling like different people. Cute and convenient property in a location that can't be beaten

Great Lake view, even a bald eagle

We thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing stay - quiet location looking over the lake was beautiful. The cottage was perfect for us and we were impressed at how clean and well kept it is. We thank Midge for sharing her place with us.
