About this property

Quiet Cozy Cottage on Keuka Lake Wine Trail

Secluded cottage on beautiful, warm, clean Keuka Lake. Two bedrooms, one bathroom. Master bedroom has a queen bed. Second bedroom has two bunk beds (sleeps four) and the living room has a queen sleeper sofa. The apartment sleeps a maximum of 8 people. All new furniture and mattresses last summer. Central air-conditioning added in spring 2021! New queen bed and mattress added last spring. 112 feet of shoreline. Dock and swim float. Rowboat included. Big yard. Level property with lots of parking. Very quiet--6 acres of undeveloped land between highway and cottage. Only 2.5 miles away from the town of Penn Yan--close to supermarkets, restaurants and boutique shopping. Morgan Marina is 2.5 miles away where you can rent boats and stock up on watersports gear. Great fishing in Keuka Lake! Keuka is comfortable to swim in from mid-June through September. East Lake Road is right along the wine trail.
The house is a duplex with the rental side on the south side of the building and the owners side on the north side of the building. We use our apartment on the weekends only but are only there about half the weekends in the summer. The rental apartment is 900 square feet. Most of our weeks of the summer are filled with repeat customers who have rented from us for years. Come see us! The Becks Family

Cute lakeside cottage

The cottage was clean and conveniently located with the extra bonus of being right on the lake! The owners were very easy to communicate with and provided a lot of great information (i.e.their favorite restaurants) prior to the trip. Great little cottage!

Exactly What I Needed!

I just came back from a wonderful stay in this cozy home. First impressions were fantastic - long, private driveway (not right on the road as are so many lake houses), easy parking, and the main room was larger than I expected. A few steps off the deck, then 4-5 more from the yard and you are ON the lake. Easy peasy. Dock is comfortable and firm, great for hanging out. Back in the house, bedding is comfortable, kitchen is well-stocked, and the couch is comfy. I will hopefully be staying again!

Fantastic stay!

The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. The view from the great room and deck was so beautiful! The beach, also, has beautiful views and was so relaxing listening to the waves. The water is crystal clear, sunsets beautiful, and so many stars at night. There is a great fire pit right on the beach. We had several camp fires and was great for making s'mores.

Nice getaway

We had really nice time! Location is great, but water still was cold for swimming. We have to go back again later in the summer to enjoy swimming. But kayaking, boating and fishing were great 😊 We definitely will go back again.

Quick escape

This property is beautiful! The lake views were great and it's a nice quiet property. My 3 kids had a great time on the playground in the property as well as the beach. The waters a great depth for little ones! They wished the fish were biting better though. I also didn't realize there was no ac in the bedrooms but fortunately it was a cool week. We truly enjoyed all of the little mom and pop eateries in the area and were amazed to find so many gluten free options for my celiac daughter! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great Location on a Great Lake

The place was perfect for what we wanted for our vacation. The size worked well for the two of us, it was lake-side with very easy access to the lake, and it was not located right on the highway. The lake had crystal clear water and successful fishing. The sunsets were spectacular. We used the rowboat several times. The rowboat could be improved with properly functioning oarlocks and wooden oars. The rubber handles on the current oars required gloves to use them. We were very happy with our choice to stay here. It was centrally located near everything we wanted to do.

Beautiful Location

Beautiful Location for a quick visit for a friend's wedding. Wish we had more time at the VRBO and in the area because there was so much to explore. The lakefront is definitely worth it and if we were there longer I would have absolutely had a fire in the fire pit. Dieder was a fantastic host with a great sense of humor. Cons: the mattress on the pullout is old and I'd recommend (if staying a long time) you bring a foam pad or mattress pad. Also, minute issue, but I wish I had known to bring a sponge and dish soap so we could have properly cleaned dishes a little better!

Very Nice Overall

Excellent location. Had beautiful views of Keuka Lake. Close to town if you need to shop for food or get some supplies at the dollar stores. Pier well maintained. (We would have enjoyed it more if the weather cooperated!). Very clean and well maintained outside and inside. We had no need to contact the owners when we were there, mainly because they answered all of our questions promptly when we messaged them. Gave a four star overall rating instead of five because of the comfort of the beds. They would have been fine if we were a younger family under the age of 45, but we are older and found the beds too hard for us. If you are 60+, would recommend bringing a foam mattress or something similar to add to the comfort of the beds.. With that in mind, we would definitely consider using this property again in the future..

Beautiful lake view, convenient location

We enjoyed our stay very much. We were traveling with our infant and being able to enjoy the lake from the house was perfect. I feel like it was nicer than the pictures. While the decor was a bit dated, it was very clean and functional. A little closet room off to the side of the main bedroom was just big enough for the pack and play. The kitchen was fully equipped and we loved the fire pit. We had the duplex to ourselves but the setup is such that the outdoor space is shared with the owners. We liked the location (and could actually walk to Keuka Springs winery). We mostly visited wineries within a half an hour which was everything on the west side of Seneca and around Keuka. It was close enough to be within about a half hour of everything that we wanted but still felt remote.

Comfortable but definitely not fancy

We were a group of 60ish girlfriends. We had a great time catching up around the campfire. Lovely lake access and views. A little weird relaxing while the hosts and their kids worked on outdoor projects around us.
