Remodeled Cayuga Lake Cottage - nice yard & waterfront, near Treleaven winery

Located on a quiet side road 30 min from Ithaca and 5 min from Treleaven Winery, our four season lakehouse is ideal for family time at the lake or a romantic getaway. The house is comfortable and thoughtfully furnished. With a sunny flat yard, hot tub, deck, new lakeside shack, kayaks, long dock, shady grass patio by the water, fire pit and rec room, there are lots of spaces to spread out. We face the afternoon sun and sunsets, and have deep, clear water. Sit by the lake and feel your blood pressure drop! New pictures coming in May...

Our cottage was built in 1951 and is 1100 square feet. We bought it in 2020 and spent over a year and a half remodeling every room, converting the wood floor garage into a recreation room, and building a new lakeside shack by the shore. We've tried for the "looks like its always been there" design approach and used sustainable materials and energy options.

The living room looks out to the lake with a large window and is open the kitchen. It has ductless heat pump/air conditioning and a pellet stove. The kitchen is fully supplied, including a dishwasher. Next to the living room is a dining area and den/TV room, which has a new high quality queen size sleeper sofa and curtains to create privacy. The main bedroom has a new queen size bed and a large window facing the lake, and the second bedroom has two twin size beds with new mattresses. The bathroom has a shower/tub combination and there is a washer and dryer. We have drinkable filtered well water.

In the back yard we have a hot tub and a new deck with a table, chairs and gas grill. The flat yard is a nice place for yard games and we have a fire pit with supplied wood. There are about twenty steps to reach the shoreline area, which is very few compared with most Cayuga lake properties.

The converted recreation room has a ping pong table, couch and chair, "vintage" boombox, and board games.

At the shore there is a nice shady area in the summer for sitting and the new shack with a mini fridge, cozy/romantic lighting, couch and table. The dock extends out to a deep section of the lake and is wonderful for jumping into the water. We have kayaks, paddle boards and life vests for guests to use. (Not available late Nov. through April for cold water safety)

Great house & property!
We stayed at the house to go to the Spa at the Inns of Aurora and it was a quick drive into Aurora. The house has everything you could need along with access to the lake with a dock and small private rocky beach. Would love to come back again in the summer!

Wonderful Couples’ Getaway
Property is super cute, cozy, and off the beaten path—perfect for a getaway from the stress of everyday life. Although it was too cold for us to enjoy water activities, and rain prevented the sunset views we were hoping for, this place has everything you could want in a lakefront stay. The owner is super responsive too.

Nice Stay with Beautiful Views
We very much enjoyed staying at Adam's cottage on the lake. The views were beautiful! The cottage was very clean. The location was peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed having a hot tub even in the winter, good for relaxing after a day of skiing. We would definitely recommend.

My mother, sister and young son had a really nice weekend at the house. It was very clean and had everything you needed. The beds were comfortable. The view of the lake from the big living room windows was beautiful. Our host was very responsive to all of our needs and questions that arose. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Girl's Weekend
Stayed here with my mom and sister. It was clean, cute, comfy and a great place to chill with a breathtaking view of the lake. Not as steep of a walk to the water as many other rentals on the lake and not a ton of stairs either. It was chilly when we were there but the mini split and pellet stove kept us super cozy. The hot tub was great! Would love to come back and bring my kids sometime. One of the best rentals I have stayed at. A few restaurants, and wineries a short drive away but remote enough to be super quiet. A really special place!

Awesome few days by the lake!
This little house by Cayuga was PERFECT for our family of 5! We fished, kayaked, sat in the sun, played games, had a ping-pong tournament and ate many meals together. The views from the cottage are great! The mini cottage down by the dock is great when it rains a bit. Adam responded whenever we had questions. We all want to come back again!

Fantastic Winter Weekend on the Lake
My partner and I met up with my best friend for a long weekend in the Finger Lakes, and we had a wonderful stay at the Cabin. Clean, cozy, and updated, we had everything that we could want. Treleaven winery is minutes away and several more are close by. Adam was an excellent host, and made sure to alert us about plunging temperatures and advice on how to keep the cabin heated throughout our stay. He also had great recommendations for wineroes, breweries, and activities in the area. The lake shack and hot tub allowed us to enjoy the outdoors even in January. We hughly recommend this property and look forward to returning in the warmer months.

Beautiful Property with Wonderful Manager!
Really beautiful, clean cottage for a peaceful getaway, with a breathtaking view. Unfortunately, due to instances beyond anyone's control, we had to leave after one night. Adam, the property manage was AMAZING in the situation, and honestly throughout the whole booking expereince, leading up to check in, and during our stay. He called, texted, messaged and was so accomodating and friendly. We were sad we had to leave, but I would recommend the property to others.

Perfect Place
This is a wonderful place to stay. The cleanliness is superb and it is so comfortable. It is right on the waterfront and has all the amenities you could possibly want. The attention to detail to make you feel as welcome as possible is beyond expectations. Due to weather we couldn’t take advantage of everything but it made us want to go back at a warmer time. The bed and pillows in the master are very comfortable and the view is indescribably beautiful. Adam, the host, is very nice and responsive to any needs you have. You can’t go wrong at this property.
