We stayed for 3 nights in one of the cabins closest to the water. We had 4 teenagers and everyone had a great time. The kids used the numerous paddleboards available and also fished off the pier for hours. It is only 20 minutes from Ithaca and 30 minutes from Watkins Glen so it was a great location to explore all of the hiking and waterfalls in the area. Taughannock falls park and beach is less than 10 minutes away. The cabin was rustic but with all of the modern amenities. We only really spent time in there to sleep. Each cabin has a full size gas grill and a small but functional kitchen. Jordan was a great host and provided everything needed for the stay. The kids thought the bed in the loft was cool, but the tallest in the group couldn't get up there comfortably. The wifi was great because a lot of the area has spotty wireless coverage. So navigate to where your going before you leave. As others have mentioned it is a lot of steps to get down to the shore, but noone in our group had a problem. We all had an amazing time and have already recommended Spotted Sandpiper to others.

This property was a nice change from your typical hotel stay. The cabin is on the lake and it is simply beautiful. We enjoyed night-time fires while listening to the sounds of nature all around us. The owners are extremely helpful and respond immediately to any and all texts, and offering up great suggestions for restaurants. I highly recommend staying at the Spotted Sandpiper

Beautifully situated on the Western shore of Cayuga Lake, wonderful sunrises across the lake and distant views of Ithaca and the Cornell Campus. Rustic cabins, which had floors that gently sloped towards the outer walls, which gave it a bit of a "fun-house" feel when you get up in the middle of the night. Great neighbors, lovely relaxation.

We loved our stay here. The rustic cabin had the beach and kayaks and the little things we wanted. Games for anyone to try, soaps, kitchen items, firewood for the fire pits... The owner was easy to reach and staff were so helpful. We are so appreciative, after so many months at home. And the location is at the start of the wine trail but still isn’t far from the City of Ithaca
