Great property with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and find their own little piece of calm, yet great spaces to gather for meals and socializing. Very comfortable with our 5 couples and would definitely recommend for larger gatherings.

We loved our stay! It was homey, the large wrap around porch was amazing and the lake view was great

The property was rustic in a positive way -- it was exactly what we were looking for. It was our first experience renting a house and bringing our dogs and it could not have been better. The house and property is well kept, the kitchen well stocked and the owner was super helpful.

our family had an exceptional celebration of Canadian Thanksgiving at Cayuga Cabins.

The accomodations were perfect for gathering as a group (there were 12 of us)as well as for enjoying private moments with spouses, children, or grandchildren. The location allowed for quiet time in a kayak or on one of the many decks, or enjoying the wineries and the endless activities in the nearby town of Ithaca. We highly recommend these extraordinary cabins for an exceptional family vacation

A little piece of heaven on earth

A wonderful place. Cottages very comfortable and equipped with everything we could possibly need. We enjoyed the beach front and kayaks. The large grassy area was perfect for family games and competitions. Steve, the owner, replied promptly to all questions. We will never forget our week at Cayuga Lake.

A Retreat Success!

We hosted our first "escape to the lake" womens retreat, and this location was perfect for us. We enjoyed a trip to the local waterfalls and spent time bybthe lake and around the fireplace. The kitchen was well suited for making incredible meals and gathering at the big table for conversation and connection. The wrap around porch was delightful for afternoon reading and conversations. It was a great location and experience!

Beautiful location

The house was beautiful and the porch was the ideal living space for our week. Tons of room and seating. The 4 kayaks were well used as was the boathouse deck overlooking the water. The home had plenty of space for all our friends and family. The kitchen was the best stocked any of us have ever stayed in. The only downside was not being able to see the dock area from the house, but the steps kept us all in good shape! Lovely home and perfect for a large group.

Love this property...

My group of college buddies stayed here for Cornell homecoming and it worked out perfectly. The owner was super responsive to requests, the accommodations worked very well and easily accommodated our dozen or so attendees. Beautiful view of Lake Cayuga and getting to and from campus was not a problem. Made for a relaxing and enjoyable weekend of sitting on the porch overlooking the lake and reuniting.

Beautiful Property on the Cayuga Lake

The main house and guest house on the Cayuga Lake is amazingly beautiful! It provides privacy, relaxation, quiet and peace. The property’s owner Steve has been great in providing helpful information and communication. We had no complaints except our vacation passed by too quickly. Thank you Steve!

Great Spot on Lake Cayuga

Cayuga Cabins is an excellent spot right on the water of Lake Cayuga. My group of 12 was very comfortable with ample space and plenty of beds. We thoroughly enjoyed hanging out on the spacious porch, sitting around the firepit, and taking the kayaks out on the lake. The property is very clean and well-maintained. The host, Steve, is excellent as well. He is very responsive and eager to answer any questions about your stay. He also provides recommendations for things to do in the area. I would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful lakefront property for college reunion!

Our group of women from Cornell Class of 2012 and our partners (and a couple of babies!) had an amazing stay at this property the weekend of the total eclipse. The two houses were perfect for our large group and the lake views were unbeatable. The host Steve was incredibly responsive leading up to, during, and after the trip, going above and beyond to make sure a pack'n'play was set up for my friend's 1.5yo and to look for a pair of missing lost ear buds after we left. If/when we ever plan another trip to Ithaca as a group we will definitely consider staying here again!

Beautiful Lakeside Cabin - Well Maintained

The cabin itself was beautiful, well-maintained and fully stocked with everything we needed for the weekend. Had a quaint rustic feel, but still provided top quality amenities. The property included easy access to the lake and we took advantage of the included kayaks to go for a trip on the water. It was very private and secluded, yet only a 20 minute drive to Ithaca. The owner was friendly and provided constant communication to make sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely return to this location for any future trips to Lake Cayuga!

Fantastic Cabins for Vacation

My family spent 3 days here enjoying a fabulous time in the cabins and outside on the huge deck space and lawn. The accommodations are beyond wonderful! There is plenty of room for a relaxing great time. We rented a boat which really added to our stay, being able to dock at the cabins. This rental is by far a 5* property! Book it without hesitation! The owner communicates immediately to answer any questions you may have. Even though we were there for a memorial for our mother, it was by far the best family vacations we've ever had! Thank you Steve!

Nice Home on the Water

We had a nice family reunion at this property. Don't be afraid of the railroad tracks between the house and the water. We never heard/saw a train the whole August week we stayed. Very quiet. While the log cabin home was too dark to spend much time in, we greatly enjoyed being outside on the expansive and comfortable deck. The kitchen has all the amenities you need to cook for a crowd.

Thanks for coming. Too dark? Haven't heard that before! We've built wrap around porches to create lots of shaded outdoor space, but the great room and kitchen have enough overhead lighting to make it bright as day inside. Glad you enjoyed your stay, wish we could have earned a 5th star like we have for 99% of our guests.

Absolutely beautiful!!!

We had such a fantastic time here that we extended our stay. From rainy days spend snuggled up by a fire, rounds of pool and darts, to kayaking during stunning sunsets, there was so much to enjoy. We definitely took full advantage of that awesome Viking stove! Rooms and beds were comfortable , bathrooms and kitchen well appointed, they even had a kitchen aid mixer, which made me as a baker, a very happy woman. The grill was nicely setup as well, it was under cover so we were able to use it even while it rained. The lake pavilion was a nicely situated and gave way to stunning views. We sat nights out there with citronella candles just soaking it all in. To start we did a big shopping at the Wegmans in Ithaca ,but the Lansing Market worked well for incidentals. Steve was very attentive , and checked in on us to make sure we were doing well, he’s also very prompt with answering any question we had. I highly recommend this property, we will be back for certain.

Wonderful, Wonderful Rental!

We travel with 11 family members every year: cousins, grandparents, etc. We love staying in homes versus hotels, it completely changes the experience and bonding. Our stay in this rental was our favorite year, by far. The views are beautiful, the home is extremely nice....it is even nicer than the pictures. Having access to two buildings worked great because everyone could be together yet have their own space too (our teenage kids took over the guest house). Steve and Lauren go up and beyond to provide you with all the amenities of home and they are helpful immediately if you email or call with any questions....Steve always responded within an hour, even if it was questions like: where can we rent boats? We loved the game room and all the Cornell decor too, there is such pride in the Cornell community! I guess the best thing we can say to show you how much we loved the place is that we will definitely return! Rent this home, you will not regret it!

Relaxing vacation in a beautiful location

I have to review with other reviewers that the pictures do not do this property justice. The cabins exceeded my expectations. The Master Suite is beautiful and spacious. The property was clean and well maintained. Steve the owner was extremely responsive to any issues or questions as they arose. I would recommend this property without reservation. There were 10-14 of us at any given time and we all had plenty of room. Kayaking was great fun and we rented a pontoon boat one day and did our own tour of the wineries by boat, which I would highly recommend. We also brought a fishing boat with us which we launched at Meyers Park about 6 miles south of the property. The Boatyard Grille in Ithaca was a great choice for dinner for 14 of us one evening. We enjoyed late nights at the fire pit, kayaks, paddle ball in the yard, swimming in the lake and playing pool. Everyone agreed it was very relaxing due to the spaciousness of the properties. The six adult "kids" stayed in the second cabin which worked out great! Highly recommend the Cayuga Cabins!!
