Vacation Rental Description

The two-storey cottage, level with the lake, was built around 1890 and converted into a summer  
cottage at the turn of the century. It's been in my family since 1935. 
 
We have 250' of private beach on the eastern shore of Seneca Lake. The lake offers views of more  
than 10 miles to the north and the picturesque cove of Lodi Point to the south.  
 
The screened front porch, about 30 feet from the water, is perfect for dining, reading, or just  
rocking the afternoon away. 
 
The living room features comfortable lounging, library, TV and DVD.  
 
The fully-equipped kitchen, with microwave, coffee maker, and all appliances, combines the charm  
of the 1950s with modern conveniences. The lakeside garden nearby features fresh herbs. 
 
Sleeps 4 in an open-floor plan second storey, with a double bed overlooking the lake, and bunk  
beds in the back around the corner. Bathroom with tub and shower. 
 
The fishing in Seneca Lake's clear, clean water, is good and the sunsets are fantastically  
beautiful.

Vacation Rental Amenities

Cable TV and DVD player, gas grill, picnic table, rope swing, firepit and lounge chairs, rowboat  
available for use. We have a swim raft.

Activities and Attractions

The nearby village of Lodi, while a tiny town, offers some of the finest wineries in the Finger  
Lakes Region. One of the wineries in Lodi includes an excellent restaurant. Neighboring Amish  
farmers provide some of the best vegetables in the region. 
 
The Seneca Lake Wine Trail between Lodi and Watkins Glen offers 23 wineries in 23 miles. Some  
wineries offer excellent dining for lunch or dinner. Neighboring Amish farmers provide fresh  
fruits and vegetables in season onn roadside stands.  
 
Just to the south, in Hector, is New York's only National Forest - the Finger Lakes National  
Forest. With hiking trails crossing federal grazing land, the walk is similar to trails in England. 
 
Tthe cottage is about half an hour's drive from Ithaca, home to Cornell University and Ithaca  
College. Ithaca offers a variety of great restaurants, shopping opportunities, and beautiful  
gardens.  
 
Watkins Glen, with its Grand Prix Racing, is 30 minutes away, as is Geneva with Hobart and William  
Smith Colleges.  
 
Nearby Seneca Falls, also a half hour drive, is home to the Women's Rights Movement and Elizabeth  
Cady Stanton. 
 
Neigboring Taughannock Falls State Park, with its spectacular falls, is between Lodi and Ithaca. 
 
Golf is only a 10-minute drive and the state maintains a boat ramp at Lodi Point.
