Fall in love with Keuka at Keuka Kara

Enjoy Keuka Lake on a 149 foot natural shale private beach, large dock for fishing or lakeside entertaining, sleeps up to 18 and has plenty of parking. Keuka Kara has been on the banks of Keuka Lake for 157 years. She is like no other cottage.

This bright, fully renovated home sits directly on the beach, and features plenty of 7 bedrooms, 6 baths, and a gorgeous view of Keuka Lake.

The main entryway leads into a 3,700 square foot open floor plan. On the main floor are the fully furnished kitchen, the bright and spacious living room, and 2 master bedrooms each connected to a full bathroom. Both bedrooms have balconies to capture the serenity of Keuka Lake.

Upstairs, additional sleeping space is available in 4 bedrooms: one with 2 double beds, one with 2 sets of bunk beds ( perfect for youngsters), and 2 master suites (one king and one queen). The two master suite bedrooms have access to the massive deck with gorgeous views of the lake.

We provide linens and towels.

On the road level there is a great room with a modern fully stocked kitchen, dining area overlooking the lake and sitting area by large screen TV.

Outside, 4 decks await, offering a beautiful view of Keuka Lake, as well as two large grills and a variety of Adirondack, and dining seating.

The property sits directly on a 149 foot stretch of private beach, complete with 2 fire pits, ( one wood and one propane) and a permanent dock with additional bench seating.

Keuka Kara has cable TV, WiFi, and is conveniently located a short drive from everything Keuka Lake has to offer.

Lovely property, well cared for, excellent location
Our family of 12 stayed for a week and had a wonderful visit. All the bedrooms accommodated us well and the gathering space on the main floor allowed for us all to eat meals and spend time together. The owner was very responsive to all of our questions and the house was very clean upon our arrival. The location can't be beat. We docked our boat for the week and it was a very sturdy, well cared for dock. Would love to stay again!

Loved our stay
Our trip to Keuka Kara was wonderful. We are grateful and thankful to the owner of Keuka Kara as she was very willing to let this large family from all over the US congregate there, and she was helpful throughout our stay in communications with us. There are so many positives with this cottage: - a well appointed kitchen with lots of room for a large crowd -kayaks, paddle boat to keep everyone happy -graduated entry into the lake for the younger children to play in -Decks on all 3 levels of the cottage to over look the lake -many lawn chairs available to have around the 2 fire pits -a great dock to Moore your boats -a float to swim or kayak out to This is a great cottage for friends and family gatherings We definitely recommend it!

This was a great property that met all of our needs! It was large enough for each family to have their own space but also very welcoming to come together in the common areas. The house is in a fabulous location and access to the lake provided hours of fun! Sue was extremely responsive and helpful as well. Would highly recommend for a large group!
