Welcome to Lakecrest Manor on beautiful Keuka Lake in the heart of New York's Finger Lakes Wine Country, just four miles south of the village of Penn Yan. Lakecrest Manor consists of the "Manor House" and the "Bungalow" and is perched on the crest of 190 feet of private "walk-in" lake frontage.
The Manor House sleeps ten and has three bedrooms (6 twin beds and 1 double bed), two full bathrooms, and a fully-equipped kitchen. The living room has a wood-burning fireplace, color TV with enhanced cable service and DVD/VCR player, AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo system, high-speed internet access, and a futon/double bed. A large, attached deck with two picnic tables is right on the water's edge.
The newly remodeled (2007) Bungalow is right next door, and has a loft/bedroom (queen-size bed), bathroom, and an eat-in kitchen. The living room has a TV with enhanced cable and VCR player. There is a private deck with picnic table off the kitchen. The loft also includes a sitting/reading area, and a separate TV in the sleeping area. Please follow the link below to our private web site for additional information and pictures.
Keuka Lake, with its unusual Y-shape, is 20 miles long and covers 11,584 acres. With an elevation of 715 feet above sea level, it is almost 200 feet deep at it's deepest point. It has a scenic bluff risng over 700 feet above lake level between the two branches of the Y. Lakecrest Manor is located on the west side of the east branch of the Y on East Bluff Road.
Keuka Lake is known for its natural beauty. It is one of the cleanest of the finger lakes, and is an excellent sport fishing lake, featuring wild lake trout, bass, and land-locked salmon. In the Summer, the lake warms to the upper 70s and low 80s, making it perfect for swimming, tubing, waterskiing, or just floating peacefully in the water.
The Finger Lakes Wine Country is second only to California for the number of award winning wineries, with well over 50 wineries around Keuka, Seneca, and Cayuga Lakes. The hillsides surrounding Keuka Lake are dotted with numerous vineyards, and dozens of award-winning wineries are within a 30 mile radius of the cottage.
For the shopper, the Finger Lakes region abounds with antiques, local arts and crafts, and Mennonite handcrafted furniture. The Windmill Flea Market just south of Penn Yan brings dozens of local vendors together every Saturday from late Spring until early Fall. Don't forget to visit the Waterloo Premium Outlet mall with over 100 premium outlet stores just a short drive away, and for the outdoorsmen, not far from Waterloo is the Finger Lakes Bass Pro Shop in Auburn. For a little excitement, try Finger Lakes Thouroughbred Racing and Gaming, just a few miles north of Canandaigua. Interested in the complete culinary experience?
