About this property

Lakeview Cottage: "Beautiful Sunset Views!"

Tucked into the north east side of Cayuga Lake, midway between Seneca Falls, Auburn and Aurora, Lakeview Cottage is the perfect location. Whether you're attending a graduation at Wells College, a wedding at the Aurora Inn, or you're here to enjoy a wine tour around the lake – this 2-bedroom home is ready to welcome you!

Inside, beautiful hardwood floors span the length of the great room. This cozy space is perfect for entertaining your small group of travelers! With lake views shining in from the distance, enjoy cooking up a meal fit for a king in the open kitchen - featuring white appliances, plenty of cupboard & counter space, and an island that seats 6.

The open great room is complete with an overstuffed sofa, and additional dining space. Sliding glass doors hug the western wall and lead to the second story balcony, complete with outdoor dining space and chairs to relax in. Whether you're grilling for family and friends, or you're enjoying your early morning coffee this shaded area will quickly become one of your favorite areas of the house.

Throughout this cozy home, 2 private bedrooms are yours to choose from. Choose your favorite and make yourself comfortable during your stay.

Outside, a custom-built patio overlooks the lake. Entertaining is always best under the sun and on this perfectly set up patio you'll never miss a minute of sun exposure. Bring your favorite yard game from home and enjoy a game and the amazing view!

Located about 15 minutes from Seneca Falls and Aurora both, Lakeview Cottage is ideal for traveling the eastern side of the Finger Lakes. Travel north west toward downtown Seneca Falls, which is widely believed to be the inspiration for the town in the movie, "It's A Wonderful Life," and where you can find restaurants like Parker's Grill & Tap House, El Bajio Mexican Restaurant and quaint shops. Or, if you prefer lakeside dining, travel by boat right across the lake to Wolffy's Grill & Maria. A quick drive into Auburn offers endless fun when you visit the Merry Go Round Playhouse! Book a performace during your trip - it'll be one worth remembering. Tour the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, and head on down toward Aurora. Stop in to Mackenzie Childs and bring home a piece of designer pottery, or enjoy Finger Lakes dining at Fargo Bar & Grill, or 1833 Kitchen & Bar. There's no doubt though that Lakeview Cottage will be the spotlight of your vacation! Call and make your reservation today!

Wonderful Spot for Family Getaway

We had a wonderful stay - house has everything we could possibly need, and accommodated us, our kids (10&12) and my parents (70s) all comfortably. Couldn’t beat the location and lake front, close enough to necessities (laundromat, grocery, etc) and some restaurant options as well.

Great weekend getaway

This location is perfect! It is a beautiful property on a lovely piece of the lake. We enjoyed all the outdoor seating, the grill and fire pit. The house was comfortable and perfect for four adults. We would absolutely stay again.

Quiet Time

My wife and I needed a short getaway so we headed for the Finger Lakes. Lake view Cottage was exactly as we expected. Quiet, and while there were neighbors it was very peaceful. Would highly recommend this place.

Quiet and convenient

The property is in a great location for exploring the region. Ideal for 2 or 3 people . Lots of outdoor seating. It has a narrow underpass to get through, right before the cottage, so big vans and SUV's might find it hairy to get there.

Great space, just as advertised

House was exactly as pictured. Excellent location right on the lake. Easy drive to the other lakes and state parks for site seeing and excursions. The small railway bridge tunnel requires a slow going but was not passable for most . Overall, a clean and comfortable property. Recommend

Beautiful sunsets on a beautiful lake

Exactly what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of work and life in NYC. Peaceful lake with spectacular sunsets while sitting on the back balcony were perfect. Nights spent around the fire pit staring and counting the stars. Days spent exploring towns with history such as Seneca Falls and Auburn, lunches at nearby wineries and a tour of montezuma nature preserve and a cheese farm made the trip memorable. The house is exactly as pictured, beautiful and quaint plus comfortable. Note: Only thing we felt it needed was ice cube trays and salt and pepper shakers. But we made due with a local market close by. Overall a Great stay and highly recommended. Thank you

Cute Cottage on Cayuga

My family had a wonderful stay, despite the rain. Cute nautical-themed cottage, clean and family-friendly. Sleeps “six” in a two bedroom one bathroom home, but that includes a small bunk bed. We were not clear on what we were able to use in the basement so did not touch anything. Never got access to internet (one of us taking an online class) despite several phone calls. Otherwise, super cute, fun, and functional and would rent again.

Beautiful location, C+ experience

The cottage needed a deep clean and some general maintenance to really feel comfortable: there were lightbulbs burned out, shower curtain rings missing, dirty handprints on the walls, slider screen door mesh ripped out of frame, and the patio umbrella on the top deck ripped/bent. Also, the bunk beds are definitely sized more for young kids and not my college age children—my daughter ended up sleeping on the couch all week. We also didn’t see the email about “additional property information”, and discovered when we got there that there was a very narrow underpass you had to get through to reach the property. Our f-150 BARELY fit through it (side mirrors had to be folded in and inches to spare on either side of the truck). That was the negative, but the views were beautiful and our family did truly enjoy the week and the time together. The lake is enormous and I’d definitely recommend renting a boat to get to experience the whole thing!

Misleading

They didn’t tell us until a week or so before our trip that the very narrow tunnel would be difficult to pass through with our midsize suv. We wouldn’t have chosen this property because of that. Internet was horrible! Could barely even watch the tv. Couldn’t get into the house; code wasn’t working. They finally gave us another code, said the battery was probably bad. We didn’t want them coming into the house to fix the code box, but they came anyway when we weren’t home. Wish there was a microwave! Fishing poles were in terrible shape.

Peaceful area

This is a beautiful location for sitting out, campfires, and lake bird watching. Cottage was stocked with plenty of pots, pans, cutlery, etc. Lots of outdoor seating area as shown Housekeeping was very responsive. The cottage has its charm, and it’s quirks. The charm is the gathering space, bar seating, at the kitchen counter, the deck overlooking the lake, and the willow tree providing shade. The quirks being front door banks into porch light, some table surfaces are cluttered and not really usable but take up space. None of this would keep us from coming back in a heartbeat. It was a wonderful location and a very enjoyable stay.

Tunnel ahead

The only access to the house is a gravel road that runs under a small, very narrow railroad tunnel. We arrived in the dark, and were shocked & not certain our car would fit through. It did, but we feel we should have been warned. The house itself is just as advertised - right on the Lake with great outdoor space. Inside, there is no central heat and no dishwasher. The second bedroom has a full bed and bunk beds stuffed into a very small space. I think taking the bunks out & advertising it sleeps 4 rather than 6 would make more sense.

Great house & beautiful property.

We rented this house for a long weekend to celebrate my husbands birthday. It is perfectly situated, so many options for outside seating -the deck, the yard or the outdoor patio. The lake view is beautiful. We enjoyed the kayaks during the day and the outdoor fire at night. The house was neat when we arrived, but could of been cleaner. Overall everything else was perfect. Thank you!
