About the host

Hosted by Josh Brubaker

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Josh! I’m proud to welcome guests to the Keuka Cove House. I grew up in a small town in Andover, NY, but some of my best memories were made right here on Keuka Lake. My grandparents and uncle had a place on the West Bluff, and summers here quickly became the highlight of my childhood.

Keuka Lake has always held a special place in my heart, and I’ve often said that one day I’d love to own a home here. When the opportunity came to purchase what was once the historic Hart-Scott, I knew it was my chance to carry forward its legacy while creating something fresh for future guests.

Hosting at the Keuka Cove House is my way of sharing the peace, joy, and beauty of the lake that’s given me so much. Whether you’re visiting to unwind by the water, reconnect with loved ones, or make new memories, I’m happy to open this little piece of paradise to you.

Why they chose this property

Keuka Lake is one of the most beautiful and peaceful places in the Finger Lakes — surrounded by vineyards, small-town charm, and some of the best sunsets in upstate New York. It’s a place that blends relaxation with adventure, where you can spend the morning on the water and the evening exploring local wineries or lakeside restaurants.

I chose this area because it feels like home — it’s where lifelong memories are made, where neighbors become friends, and where every season brings something special. My goal with the Keuka Cove House is to give guests the same sense of joy, peace, and belonging that Keuka Lake has always given me.

What makes this property unique

What makes the Keuka Cove House truly special is its perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Originally built in 1894 and once known as the Hart-Scott, this beautifully restored colonial has been reimagined to honor its legacy while offering a one-of-a-kind Finger Lakes experience.

The home is rented exclusively as a full property, making it ideal for family reunions, group getaways, and retreats. With three distinct living units under one roof, guests enjoy the best of both worlds — plenty of shared gathering space for meals and memories, along with private corners to unwind and recharge.

Inside, guests will find timeless design details like antique furnishings, cozy fireplaces, and wrap-around porches paired with modern kitchens, luxurious bathrooms, and thoughtful amenities. Outside, the property features 20 feet of private lakefront access, a boathouse lounge, firepit, gardens, and endless space to enjoy the serenity of Keuka Lake.

Whether you’re sipping coffee on the porch, sharing stories by the campfire, or watching the sunset dance across the water, the Keuka Cove House captures the peaceful, nostalgic spirit of lakeside living — a place where every stay feels like coming home.
