About this property

Blackbird Cottage | 2 Bed, 1 Bath

Welcome to Blackbird Cottage! On a quiet dead-end street, Blackbird Cottage is a perfect cottage for a couple or a group of up to four looking to relax on Seneca Lake.

The main cottage offers 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the second with a Double bed, a full bath (with tub/shower), fully outfitted kitchen, lovely lake-view dining area with panoramic views, and comfortable living room for relaxing and watching the lake.

At beach level, our lakeside cabana, for relaxing or "working from home" by the lake,  is surrounded by a deck and lounge chairs, just a few steps from your own lakefront and is outfitted with mini-fridge and comfy furniture giving you a wonderful place to relax at the end of a day on the lake. There is a small fire pit on the lake front as well for evening fires. Between the two buildings is a lovely landscaped patio with a patio set, shade trees and of course lake view. It doesn't get better than than this!

The cottage ceilings are fairly low due to the fact it was originally built in the 1950's. We are also on a quiet dead-end street with close neighbors along the lake who enjoy the relaxing nature of the area.

Whether visiting the area for our wonderful wineries, getaway, romantic weekend, or fishing our world-famous lake trout, you will love Blackbird Cottage on Seneca Lake!

There is a canoe for getting out onto the lake, which is located under the lower deck. Please use at your own risk and use responsibly. Great for fishing and sunsets!

Although we do allow children to stay, the cottage does not have green space/much room for young ones to run outside. The cottage is best suited for adults.

Long weekend getaway
We stayed Thursday thru Monday. We did some hiking to see some local waterfalls along the Keuka Outlet trail. As non wine drinkers we visited some cool breweries around Seneca and Penn Yan. We had dinner at Beef and Brew and Parker’s Grille which were both great. We spent Saturday at The Windmill Farm and Craft market. It was great watching the sunrise over Seneca Lake sitting in the dock
