About this property

The Trottage: Modern 2 Bedroom Seneca Lake Home

Enjoy your vacation at The Trottage on Seneca Lake! This new resort-style cabin is perfect for all ages, with minimal stairs, a level yard, and easy access into the lake from the concrete ramp!

With parking for 2 cars just across the driveway, it is less than 20 feet to reach the cabin. A covered porch sits at the top of the stairs overlooking the lake and is well appointed with wicker patio furniture.

Just inside the entry door is an open great room, with vaulted ceilings, knotty pine interior walls, and a row of windows facing the lake. The small kitchen features new appliances and is equipped for preparing basic indoor meals. A dining table with seating for four looks out over the water, and a full bathroom with small shower is just off the kitchen.

The bedroom with a double bed sits facing the lake and has direct access to the full bath. The bunk bedroom is located on the north end of the cabin and features 4 single beds with two TVs that flip down above the lower bunk beds.

The lakefront features multiple dock sections for mooring your boat or fishing. A concrete ramp on the north side of the property leads right into the water - no need for a swim ladder to get in and out.

Two kayaks are provided for guests' enjoyment and are easily launched from the ramp. The level lawn is perfect for outdoor games like croquet or bocce ball. And for your soaking pleasure after a long day of winery visits, a brand new 5 person hot tub off the deck awaits you!

Located just 4 miles from Dundee, The Trottage is convenient to grocery shopping, gas stations, restaurants, and excellent wineries, such as Glenora Wine Cellers, Herman J. Wiemer Vineyards, and Starkey's Lookout! A short trip northeast will bring you to the Windmill Farm and Craft Market, open every Saturday and a favorite shopping destinations for area visitors.

Quiet Lake-front property

Small but the outside spaces including lake-front, pier, porch, outside furniture made up for the tight quarters. I missed having a dishwasher and washer/dryer but the hot tub was so nice. So many wineries and breweries near by.

Nice little place right in the lake!

The place is perfect for 2 people and a dog! Great deck, perfect location, nice kayaks to borrow. I would not want more than 2 people in the house as it is small. Neighbors do allow their dogs to run thru, but they are nice people and so we had a great time. We would rent it again!

Amazing little Trottage! Very cozy.

It was very clean, bed was comfy and soft. It was furnished with everything we needed. Bedding, towels, dishes, etc. Hot tub was great and well maintained. It was a great ending to each evening with the cooler weather. We highly recommend the Trottage.

Cute and Cozy

We stayed here for a girls trip. There were 4 of us (all early 30s). The cottage is very small, but you can't beat the location. It sits about 30 feet back from the lake. The hot tub on the back deck is amazing. The cottage came well stocked with all the necessities. Lots of blankets which made sitting on the deck in November nice and cozy. Would stay here again!

So overall is was a nice place. The porch,yard and deck were fabulous. The house was and is way to small for 3 let alone it states it can sleep 8? We were lucky we had good weather so most of our time was spent outside and out and about. Just no real room. The neighbors to the left were loud 2 nights and allowed their dogs to use our yard to do their business twice and bother our dogs. The last 2 nights it was quiet

The Trottage house is great! We really enjoyed our stay. The house is on the small side but the layout works great. Four of us were very comfortable. For a couple with kids would work great too. It has everything you need. The beds were very comfortable, soft. Everything was clean and easily accessible. AC worked great. Decorated beautifully with guests in mind. The outside is the place to be! The deck and hot tub were awesome! The kayaks provided were great, also had life jackets and easy ramp for in and out, if you dont want to use the dock ladder. The chairs on the dock was my favorite spot!! Love that there was a lots of seating options. We enjoyed looking at all the flowers and herbs around the yard. Hats off to the person who cares (loves) the yard. It shows! Very peaceful!! Our only issue and there is really nothing that can be done about it.. Was the spiders at night. After dark the spiders took over, the dock, swing and front porch railings. They were all over them. But they would all be gone in the morning. I only mention this because there were a lot... but it comes with the lake. Ironically we didnt see not one bug or spider inside the house, which was a shock considering the night time. But no even one. The house was so clean. I was very happy there were none in the house. And they were all gone during the day. I dont think we saw one during the day. It was a very pleasant stay. We would definitely stay again!! Would love to own something like this one day.

Beautiful view but not worth the price

The view is amazing but I cannot stress how small the bed is and the shower is dangerously small and we found dirty . Just so you know I am 5 foot tall. It needs major updates and the bed sheets thankfully we brought our own. The bunk beds are extremely small and all of the lighting is just old. The deck is beautiful and the hot tub is nice but they really should lower their nightly rate and watch out for “ host fees”.

Vacation

Everything was great, except there should be better foot gripping coming out of the hot tub to the porch flooring, one of our friends slipped when he got to the deck and fell. He's ok but could have been worse. Other than that our stay was awesome. Thank you!!

Great stay close to Watkins Glen

Very clean place right on Lake Seneca for a fall get away. The outside was perfect with a fire pit, hot tub and beautiful flowers everywhere. We spent a lot of time on the porch. Inside was very clean and tidy but like other reviews stated, very tight quarters. It was just two of us so we managed ok. The bed is VERY SMALL especially for those that are used to a king size bed. We used the second bedroom (with the bunkbeds) to store our gear and luggage. All in all, the location was perfect for all the activities we wanted to do.

Lovely little cottage

Superb kitchen, Beautiful plants/flowers. Great porch (spent most of our time on it. Wonderful views and lots of entertainment on the lake. The dining table useless, otherwise all the furniture worked. AC was a surprise in its effectiveness. All in all no complaints. We hope to come back. We gave a concert in Lodi on the 6th and chose this as better than a motel room. No comparison, wonderful to return to after a hot day of practice. Thanks.
