Lotta Leisure: Family Retreat

Located minutes from downtown Seneca Falls where museums, restaurants and canal life are at your fingertips - There's no bull or buts about whether you'll have fun when you choose a getaway at Lotta Leisure!

Outside the entry way new hydrangeas have been planted and greet you on your way to the front door. Enter into the galley kitchen where you'll find a plentiful supply of cooking and eating ware alike. Just off the kitchen you'll find the first floor half bath.

The living and dining area offer a cozy feel and spectacular lake views. You're sure to enjoy time spent in the three season screened in area off the living room. Sip a cup of coffee and watch as the sun comes up over the east and sparkles over the cool waters of Cayuga Lake.

Upstairs, you'll find both bedrooms, full bath and laundry area. With the living and sleeping areas separated, you'll have ample space within this cozy camp!

Outside, wildflowers bloom and a wooden staircase leads you to the lakefront. Natural entry into the water makes this Lotta Leisure an ideal location for adults and kids alike. Enjoy relaxing the day away in the water craft provided, or sun bathe on the dock. In the evening, pull up a chair and roast a marshmallow over the firepit!

Whether you're coming to hike Taughannock Falls, stopping at the locally famous Cayuga lake Creamery, spending the day touring Cornell University, or attending an event at the Women's Rights National Historical Park – Lotta Leisure is boasting with adventures and possibilities. Call and make your reservation today!

Great Getaway
Lotta House was such a nice get away. We went in December so was cold. But still so nice to be on the water. Plenty of winery’s still open. House was easy to enter. Very clean perfect for two couples. Easy communication. You won’t be disappointed.

Girls wine weekend
Me and my bestie really enjoyed our stay and plan to come again with our significant others! The house was great. The beach was a perfectly quaint spot to chill and have a nightly fire. Picking seashells in the daytime is a must as well! There were so many places to relax and just unwind the name makes a lotta sense... The fact that there were multiple winerys so close by was the icing on the cake. Thanks for the hospitality.

Little slice of heaven
The cabin was absolutely adorable! Very clean and location was perfect for all what we wanted to do in the area. The beds were very comfortable and having the lake view was the icing on the cake. Quiet and so relaxing, and the full moon over the lake was perfection. I would definitely stay here again.

A great little cabin right on the lake. Very basic but had all the essentials. Perfect size for 2. Only one shower. Might be hard for capacity of 6.

Wonderful Home
This was the second time we stayed at this home. It was just as wonderful as we remembered, but with a major improvement. We were so happy to see that the shower had been replaced with a larger one. The house is so comfortable and perfect for our family of four. Our favorite part is the enclosed porch where we spent a lot of our time eating and playing games while enjoying a beautiful view of the lake. I expect that we will be back again!

Excellent time at Lotta Leisure!
We stayed for a week and had an amazing time. The place is at a great spot on the lake. Nice cove protected from the wind. The house is cozy, it was clean and the porch is amazing. The bedrooms were good size and the beds were comfortable. I would give the place five stars except for the shower and kitchen being so tiny.

Experience was pleasurable. We had only wished we were able to get to kayaks but understood it was a few days prior to the season.

Perfect location between lakes!
This property was easy to book, just as described, great location, and what a wonderful guest bag we received! The camp is located right on the water at Cayuga, but on the Seneca side allowing us to explore not only those two but also Chimney State Park on Lake Ontario, and Keuka. We went to Ithaca, Watkins Glen and numerous waterfalls and state parks. Thank you for a fun stay!
