The cottage is located 8 minutes from Keuka and 15 min from Seneca so, you have the best of both worlds! It is a quiet area and the cottage is spacious with plenty of glass windows and amazing lake views. There’s a seaaonal dock with kayaks available to explore the lake or go fishing.

About the host
Hosted by Joanne Mulligan
We are a hard working couple who absolutely love the Finger lakes region. It has been a long time dream to have a lake house and now it has come true. We live and work in PA and rent out the cottage in the meantime until we can one day retire and move to the lake permanently. Our plan is to continue to update and improve the home and property each year
Why they chose this property
I love that it is centrally located. You can visit Seneca or Keuka all within a short drive. Waneta lake specifically is great because it is not touristy. There are no wineries or businesses. Just a wonderful community.
What makes this property unique
It’s an old cozy cottage with a brand new 40ft wide deck overlooking the lake. We also have enough room for 8 people to stay and to have dinner together at the large dining room table. Plenty of sitting room inside as well as outside!
