About this property
Sunset Retreat Cayuga Cottage w/ hot tub - Cayuga Lake- Panoramic views & Yard. Pet Friendly!
Welcome to "Sunset Retreat”! A quaint 2 bedroom, 1 bath lakefront getaway with a bonus bunkhouse located on the eastern shore of Cayuga Lake in the heart of the beautiful Finger Lakes region of New York State. This property features a main house with a fully stocked kitchen complete with a dishwasher, a dining area and a sitting area with lake views, one full bathroom with a washer/dryer, and one bedroom with a queen bed. Additionally, there is a bonus bunkhouse a few steps away from the main house with multiple beds and a TV. Between the buildings there is off-street parking for 3 vehicles and a 4 person hot tub available for year round use. Across the quiet street there is a wonderful grassy yard area, a lakeside deck with a grill, table/chairs and an oversized dock area. Cast a line off the dock for some great fishing, float peacefully in an inflatable tube (we have 2 available for rental!), or enjoy a paddle around the lake in the 2 kayaks provided for use. Pillows, sheets, towels, and other linens are provided for your convenience. Heating and air conditioning are provided throughout for comfort in all seasons. This property is equipped with cellular service, 500mbps+ high speed internet & Wi-Fi, and a Youtube TV. Strictly no smoking. Pets are allowed with an additional $200 pet fee which covers up to 2 pets. Please say yes to the pet option when making the reservation so you are charged correctly. Due to high demand, there is a strict no refund policy on any bookings that include a local event or holiday weekend. *OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: This property is located about 2 miles in on a private road; bring what you need to feel settled! There is a grocery store in Union Springs, Auburn and Ithaca. There are a couple local convenience stores around Aurora. The shoreline and lake floor is rocky/slippery. We recommend bringing/wearing water shoes for safety. Please note that the advertised nightly rate is based on a total of up to 4 guests. While we welcome up to 6 guests at this property, additional fees will apply beyond the count of 4. Please input an accurate guest count when booking to ensure proper pricing. As always, please reach out to us with any questions or concerns. Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter rentals available. Looking for more? We have 3 other properties located on the same road: “Sunset Paradise”, “Sunset Oasis” and “Sunset Haven”. Renting multiple is a great option for big groups! Contact us for more information. At this property you are approximately 20mins from Aurora and 45 mins to Ithaca. The surrounding area offers numerous experiences to enjoy. Here are some of our favorites: *Visit The Spa at the Inns of Aurora *Enjoy at meal at Dugans Country Grill *Tour the famous MacKenzie-Childs estate & world famous pottery *Hike at nearby Long Point State Park *Wine tasting on the Cayuga Wine trail *Tour the historic Wells College *Wells College Golf Course *Shop in historic Aurora *Have a fantastic meal at the Aurora Inn *Encourage exploration at the Sciencenter in Ithaca, NY *Birdwatch eagles, osprey, and a variety of ducks *Greek Peak Mountain Resort *Enjoy a meal at Aurora Brewery Come prepared to enjoy every day. Get up early to see the change in the color of the hills across the lake as the sun rises or watch an afternoon storm roll down the lake leaving the air clean and fresh. Enjoy the lake breeze and the sound of waves lapping against the dock. Fish off the end of the dock in one of the best fishing spots on the lake or enjoy a paddle around the lake in a kayak. Be amazed at the spectacular sunset at the end of the day. Roast marshmallows around the firepit. There is plenty to see and do! Whatever you choose, we are sure that you will have a fabulous time at “Sunset Retreat”!
