Isle of Ours in Cayuga Lake

This cozy efficiency cabin, affectionately called "The Isle of Ours", is located on Cayuga Lake, in the heart of the Finger Lakes and is available for one or two adults from mid May through October. It is nestled into the side of a hill on our family's secluded 40 acres of woodland with a quarter mile of private beach. The lake view from the deck, with it's canopy of pine trees, makes this vacation spot very unique. Many of our tenants return each year to enjoy the serenity of the 'Isle of Ours'. Features include adjacent parking, your own flat beach w/ a small dock and campfire pit, a large deck with a picnic table and deck chairs. Activities include swimming, biking, fishing, and hiking our woodland trails or at the local State Parks. Our family-owned rental cabin is near Ithaca, Cornell University, Ithaca College, the Finger Lakes Wineries and four State Parks, including Taughannock State Park (2 miles) and it's famous 212 foot water falls. Trumansburg village amenities are five minutes away.

You will enter the "Isle of Ours" from a covered porch and walk into the living area w/ a vaulted ceiling. This area has two twin beds with large pillows that form a 'sectional couch' by day and a king size bed at night (be sure to bring twin sheets). Our cabin has an open floor plan (approximately 25' by 20') w/ wood floors, walls and ceiling. There is an antique dining table in front of a corner picture window overlooking the deck (12' X 20') and the lake. The cabin has a 'reading corner', an antique wardrobe and a small chest of drawers. The kitchenette is separated by a half wall and has a large window overlooking the woods and ravine.We provide basic kitchen items i.e. full refrigerator, coffee pot, microwave, a large toaster oven, double electric hotplate, pots/pans, and table settings for four. You will need to provide TOWELS / PILLOWS/ TWIN SHEETS and BLANKETS OR SLEEPING BAGS. There is local phone service, which will provide dial up service, if you need your computer.

Come swim, hike, canoe and fish just a few steps away from your cabin. Explore the nearby State Parks and wineries or just relax with a good summer "read" on your private deck with nothing but pine trees and lake to look up at.

Our rates are based on single or double occupancy (we do not rent to more than two adults) and the number of dogs you bring. We rent from Sunday (2pm) to Sunday (10am). Occasionally, and only in the off season, we rent our cabin for the weekend with a $300 minimum charge. Call or write for rates and availability for extended stays in the Spring and Fall. We regret that we cannot rent to couples with children or handicapped individuals, as the terrain surrounding this cabin is not conducive to their needs.
