About this house rental
Have dinner on the screened in porch while watching the sunset. Roast marshmallows by the fire pit. Jump off the dock and swim in fresh water or float alongside on the kayaks provided. Take a wine tour by boat. Hike trails and see the waterfalls at our local state parks. Rent a boat from the marina next door.
For couples, families, friends, and water enthusiasts, this has it all!
This property is ideal because of the huge, spacious yard leading to the private lake frontage. While the property has a sea wall and dock that is great for fishing, boating, and swimming there is also a shallow entrance for young children to walk in and perfect for launching kayaks and water rafts. There are no dangerous steps to the water just a gentle incline from the house leading to the lake with plenty of room to play! Located in the village, the property is .75 acres. There is a privacy fence between the home and the neighbor to the north and there is a natural wooded border between the house and the neighbor to the south.
This property also has access to public utilities (no wells or septic tanks) which is rare for Finger Lakes rentals.
Built in 1870 this older home has its original charm with hardwood floors, and lower ceilings (seven feet high) but it has been completely updated in its amenities. There is WiFi available throughout the house and there are three smart TVs in the house: two in the bedrooms and one in the living room.
The home also has a main level bedroom and walk in shower for those who require such.
The owners do not live on the property but are close by if you have any trouble. You have complete access to the entire property including the dock and waterfront. Two sit on top kayaks and several river rafts are provided... at no additional cost!! **Please note that by agreeing to the rental of the house you are also agreeing to read and adhere to the liability waiver associated with the use of aquatic equipment.
This home is available to rent year-round as there is forced air heat and central air conditioning throughout.
I do try to meet the requests of all my guests. If possible, I will allow late check outs and early check in times when it doesn’t interfere with other rentals (at no charge). Please note that this is usually not possible in the months of May through September due to back-to-back rentals.

Internet- Free unlimited WiFi!
Fully screened-in porch- Enjoy dinner with a great view without the hassle of bugs. The large table seats six comfortably. The porch leads to the concrete pad with grill access and overlooks the yards and lake. Always a guest favorite.
Bathroom- Large walk-in shower with spray hose which is convenient for bathing children. There are towels, washcloths, and hand towels provided for up to six guests. For those who may have forgotten, there is shampoo, conditioner, body wash and most all toiletries needed in stock. We keep a hairdryer, iron and ironing board in the house at all times. Also in this room is the top load washer and dryer. Laundry detergent and dryer sheets also provided.
Bedroom 1- Located on the first floor, this room has a queen size bed, 40” Smart TV, large closet with hangers, night stand, full length mirror and alarm clock with USB ports.

Bedroom 3- Located upstairs this room has a queen size bed, night stand, small closet, infant crib, and a toy box filled with toys. This room also has an alarm clock with built in USB ports.
** All beds come made with linens, comforters, pillows, throw pillows, and throw blankets (exactly as pictured)!
Outside- A huge yard leads to the lake at a gentle incline. No steps or stairs! There is a shed which houses the kayaks, river rafts and lawn games.
The house has three entrances. One is off of the small porch facing the lake which leads to the main door with keypad entry. A unique 4 digit code is given to guests prior to arrival.
Don’t forget the fire pit! Along with Adirondack style chairs this area is large enough for 6 guests to easily fit around. It's set up right by the lake for beautiful sunsets and roasted marshmallows.
We provide our guests with a charcoal and a propane grill for cooking in summer. Please provide your own charcoal and lighter fluid (although check ahead, some guests leave this behind). Propane is provided.
Parking- The driveway easily accommodates two large or three small vehicles plus road side parking affords room for 3 additional vehicles on the house side of the road.
Extras!!
- Two sit-on-top adult kayaks are provided and one child kayak (up to 120lbs). Life jackets, paddles, and whistles included.
- River rafts also provided. Read liability waiver in the rental rules.
- For more advanced kayakers and those looking for canoes, tandem kayaks, and stand up paddle-boards there is a local company who will rent these out and deliver to my guests. Please inquire.
- SmartTVs are all logged in with my Netflix account. Disney Plus is also available.
- There are sand toys in the sandbox.
- The outdoor game Corn Hole, Ladder Ball and Bocce are available in the shed by the house. Help yourselves!!
The property has a sea wall and boat dock with a ladder for easy swimming access. The seawall allows for the property to extend further out into the water than the surrounding neighbors. This enhances the serenity and beauty of the views.
The dock can be used to load and unload guests from a boat. A local company offers wine tours by boat. Since my home is directly on the way to the wineries the captain may pick my guests up at my dock. Please inquire for more information!
For overnight mooring we recommend you keep the boat at the marina next door. It is a temporary dock so if the water is choppy or if you choose to moor overnight or in rough water, we take no responsibility for damages to the boat, and you would be liable for damages to our property or neighboring property if applicable.
Pontoon boats are available for rent for larger parties with advance reservations from the Marina next door.
I will gladly help you coordinate any activities!
PLEASE NOTE:
THERE IS ONE SECURITY CAMERA ON THE HOUSE FACING THE DRIVEWAY.
The house was built over 100 years ago. While the major amenities have been updated, I did try to maintain the homes natural charm. The ceilings are low, the floors may creak, and they are not perfectly level. The steps to the second floor are steep and narrow. If you need a brand new, modern home, then this listing is NOT for you. If you want an immaculately cleaned, cute home, with lots of character, directly on the lake with an enormous yard, then please book!!
The lake is wonderful for swimming and fishing. Right off the dock the bottom is very sandy, however there may be small stones and plants. Some people may prefer to wear flip flops or water shoes. Inflatable toys and rafts are always welcome as are canoes, kayaks and paddleboats. These items are to be used at the guest's own risk.
During summer months the lawn is mowed once a week, generally, Monday through Wednesday (depending on the weather) between the hours of 3 and 5 pm. Mowing only takes 45 minutes, and we do our best to minimize any inconvenience for our guests.
This home is located along a NY state scenic highway in the village. There is some truck traffic which is increased during the summer months. For most, the benefit of public utilities with high pressure shower and faucets, and toilets that flush properly outweighs this slight inconvenience. Being inside the village also affords the ability to quickly pick up items you may have forgotten at the local market just a quarter mile away. Those that are looking for absolutely quiet nights away from all traffic this may hinder your decision to book.
**The maximum occupancy is 6 people. This is for the ENTIRE property and at ALL times. No exceptions. ** The number of guests will be verified via cameras on the exterior of the home. By agreeing to rent this house you are agreeing to adhere to the rules set forth in the rental rules including the liability waiver.
For check in, you will receive a four-digit code at least one day prior to arrival.
If you are coming in late, I am happy to leave extra lights on for you. Please let me know before 2pm on the day of arrival if I this is required.
Other things to note:
- The shower faucet is on backwards... it is up for cold and down for hot. To use the shower wand, pull up on the button on top of the shower head; push down to switch back to the shower head.
- For those with kids, there is a toy box in the upstairs bedroom with the crib and of course the sandbox outside.
- The indoor fireplace is not operational. There is a non-heat insert in it for ambiance.
- Kayaks and rafts need to be returned to the shed prior to checkout. Lawn furniture needs to be returned to its original yard placement.

10.0 / 10.0
Wonderful lake home with everything you could possibly need available. My kids had a blast jumping off the dock, kayaking, and fishing. Nighttime by the fire pit by the lake is amazing. Cute quiet small town. The house is very close to the road but that was not an issue.

Great place on the lake. Our boys enjoyed the fishing and the beautiful sunsets.
