Pet Friendly Fingerlakes Cayuga Lake House Near Wineries Cornell Ithaca College

Beautiful three-bedroom single-family home located in the Town of Ithaca. We are only 1.5 miles from downtown Ithaca, but it is a world apart. Private lot with private dock and private swimming and grass area down by the lake. We have two kayaks, a canoe and a fire pit on the property. We keep the house clean and update and renovate the house regularly. Our house electricity is solar, powered by Solar Farms, New York.

We now have a master bathroom and two full bathrooms!!

A great location to visit Cornell University, Ithaca College, The Ithaca Farmer's Market, The Ithaca Commons and the Finger Lakes Wineries. Taughannock Falls, Buttermilk Falls and Treman State Park are all nearby. Easy boat entry at Treman Marina, one mile down the road.

This is fun kitchen to cook in since you are lakeside. Kitchen has sliding glass doors to large lakeside deck. Cherry floors, granite countertops, pendant lights, dishwasher, garbage disposal, oversized fridge, eat-in table with seating for seven. Gorgeous views from almost every room, including 8 windows in the living room, 3 in the master bedroom, 3 windows and a three paneled sliding glass door in the kitchen and a 6 bay window and large picture windows in the downstairs bedroom. The house is renovated and modern. Hardwood floors and beautiful finishing touches everywhere. All kitchen items (pots, pans, plates), sheets, blankets and towels are provided.

Bedrooms: Master w/ fantastic views of Cornell and King Bed. This room has an attached master bathroom with a shower. The downstairs bedroom is the Bay Window Room. This room has fantastic views of the lake, a queen bed, and is near the downstairs bathroom. The second upstairs bedroom has a skylight and two twin beds.

Pet Policy: We allow pets because we love our dogs and they love to travel with us. This is a great place for dogs, not only because they can go swimming, but because the deck and grass are all fenced in. You can let the dog out from the kitchen without even leaving the house. You must clean up after your pet, of course. We charge only a $30 fee for dogs that we spend on end of the year professional carpet cleaners. Note: If your dog is elderly then this might not be a great house with all the steps.

Cleaning:
House is professionally cleaned between tenants. Cleaners provide the beds made with clean sheets.

Who Can Rent:
It is a quiet area and is not appropriate for loud/late-night parties. We do not allow additional guests.

Our property is steep. There is a long stair case to the house from the driveway. All tenants and guests must be able to navigate stair with ease. Unfortunately it is not handicapped accessible.

Winter: Our house is a real year-round house and you can set the thermostat to whatever is comfortable. We usually do not plow or shovel the lower driver in winter since it is pretty steep. Winter tenants will have to walk from the upper parking (or even from the road in serious snow) to the house.

Perfect
My husband, dog and I stayed for two weeks and had a fantastic time. The home was perfect for us to get a feel for the area, see the snow, and visit the wineries, find good restaurants, and of course take the waterfall hikes. The owners were responsive to our questions about house and area. Our dog loved having the freedom in the yard. Great central location. Thank you.

Quiet peaceful lakefront getaway
The property was just as described- very well maintained and beautiful panoramic views of the lake. It was quiet and peaceful and just as described in the listing. It was a great location to relax and a great location being 5-10 minutes from Downtown Ithaca restaurants, Taughanock Falls and Buttermilk.

Surrounded by Gorgeous fall colors on Cayuga Lake
Beautiful location. Just the right time to view fall colors while exploring waterfalls on numerous hiking trails and driving peaceful country roads. Tons of wineries and distilleries to visit plus downtown Ithaca with great restaurants and eateries. Our VRBO host was wonderful and the house had everything you could need! Beautiful clear water and open skies to view from the large deck, the dock, or by the fire pit at night. The one drawback named by several others is the tricky driveway—best to have four-wheel drive and steely nerves.

Relaxing lake retreat
Great house right on the lake, plenty of room, nice yard area for kids + dogs. Kayaking and fishing right off the dock area. Plenty to do nearby including waterfalls, farmers market, wineries and a short ride in to Ithaca.

Family reunion
Enjoyed this property, view and location. Close to grocery stores and wineries, and being near the end of the lake it was private and had little boat traffic. House was clean and we were satisfied with our week spent at this property

Beautiful Lake Vacation!
We had a wonderful time! The property was very welcoming and well equipped with all our needs! Carolyn was very attentive to our questions and needs (especially when we locked ourselves out!). We loved the ability to bring our dog too. He loved the dock as much as us! Thank you for sharing your home with us! Montani Family

Lovely home with amazing views
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home with its amazing views of the lake! We loved spending our time swimming, kayaking/canoeing, grilling, and relaxing in the hammock or by the fire. And it’s so close to the many beautiful waterfalls! We will definitely miss this place.

Perfect for a Getaway
The view from the living room is fantastic and it is well maintained and clean. Three bedrooms gave us a lot of space but we had to share one bathroom. We managed. The location is between Ithaca and some beautiful state parks so the location is pretty close to perfect. We wished we had more time to enjoy the dock on the lake. Kitchen was well equipped with all we needed. Beds were clean and comfortable. If there was an item of concern it was the driveway. Very steep and hard to navigate onto the main road. Wouldn't want to be there with snow. Note, however, the current owners really have no control over this.

Stunning Views and Lovely Property Near Everything
This was a wonderful property near everything--waterfalls, Cornell, restaurants, all are a short drive away. The owner was also very responsive. I can't say enough good things about the property. It's good to know that the driveways are tricky--and steep. I have a mini-cooper and next time I stay I'll rent a car to come! But I certainly hope to return!
