Remodeled Cayuga Lake Cottage - nice yard & waterfront, near Treleaven winery

Located on a quiet side road 30 min from Ithaca and 5 min from Treleaven Winery, our four season lakehouse is ideal for family time at the lake or a romantic getaway. The house is comfortable and thoughtfully furnished. With a sunny flat yard, hot tub, deck, new lakeside shack, kayaks, long dock, shady grass patio by the water, fire pit and rec room, there are lots of spaces to spread out. We face the afternoon sun and sunsets, and have deep, clear water. Sit by the lake and feel your blood pressure drop! New pictures coming in May...

Our cottage was built in 1951 and is 1100 square feet. We bought it in 2020 and spent over a year and a half remodeling every room, converting the wood floor garage into a recreation room, and building a new lakeside shack by the shore. We've tried for the "looks like its always been there" design approach and used sustainable materials and energy options.

The living room looks out to the lake with a large window and is open the kitchen. It has ductless heat pump/air conditioning and a pellet stove. The kitchen is fully supplied, including a dishwasher. Next to the living room is a dining area and den/TV room, which has a new high quality queen size sleeper sofa and curtains to create privacy. The main bedroom has a new queen size bed and a large window facing the lake, and the second bedroom has two twin size beds with new mattresses. The bathroom has a shower/tub combination and there is a washer and dryer. We have drinkable filtered well water.

In the back yard we have a hot tub and a new deck with a table, chairs and gas grill. The flat yard is a nice place for yard games and we have a fire pit with supplied wood. There are about twenty steps to reach the shoreline area, which is very few compared with most Cayuga lake properties.

The converted recreation room has a ping pong table, couch and chair, "vintage" boombox, and board games.

At the shore there is a nice shady area in the summer for sitting and the new shack with a mini fridge, cozy/romantic lighting, couch and table. The dock extends out to a deep section of the lake and is wonderful for jumping into the water. We have kayaks, paddle boards and life vests for guests to use. (Not available late Nov. through April for cold water safety)

The neighbors along the lake are a nice community of people that know each other well. There are a couple neighbor's dogs that are allowed to wander around off leash. They are friendly, but you may encounter them occasionally in the yard.
During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from Cayuga Lake. You'll find features such as 1 hot tub, laundry facilities and an arcade/games room. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the cottage.

Lovely cottage with majestic views of Cayuga Lake. Super clean and in a great location with a very well- maintained waterfront. Lots of local trails with several NYS Parks nearby. We were 2 sisters in our 50s with one daughter/ niece in her twenties, and no one was bored.

We had a great stay at this cute cottage. It was spacious and very well stocked with everything we could need including SUPs and kayaks. I was a little worried that there was not whole house AC, but the 2 units were strong enough. The house is on a well system si you can’t drink the water but there was plenty of bottled water provided. Sometimes the sulphur smell from the water in the bathroom was a little overwhelming but nothing that couldn’t be fixed with some Febreeze which was provided. Also Adam was very responsive. Would definitely recommend this place to others.

Sister reunion

We really enjoyed our reunion at this charming location. The cottage is as advertised, very clean with lots of space to spread out and relax.Starting the day with our morning coffee on the dock while watching the seagulls was wonderful. We hope to meet here again in the future.

Quiet lakeside getaway

We enjoyed a very peaceful and relaxing 2 night stay at the King Ferry cottage. When we weren’t on the water we appreciated the deck and seating setups at various levels so we could relax in the shade throughout the day. It was wonderful to hear the lake lapping on the rocks whenever we were outside. The house itself is comfortable and well equipped and we stayed quite comfortable during some hot days.

The cottage is beautifully remodeled and very clean and cozy. We especially appreciated the variety of places, both outdoors and indoors, to enjoy views of the lake. Having the hot tub and kayaks was a real bonus. Everything about King Ferry Cottage was perfect in our opinions, and we hope to visit again.

We have stayed at this property 4 years in a row and plan to book again next year. It is a wonderful place! The house is immaculate, and the views from the dock are amazing. We spent every evening watching the sunset. Probably the best and most responsive host of any place we’ve ever stayed.

Great Waterfront Cottage

We enjoyed everything about our stay. The location was great with a mesmerizing view of the lake and close to wineries, distilleries, nearby towns and Ithaca. The hot tub, outdoor fire area, the dock and little bunkie were great. Definitely recommend a stay here!

Perfect cozy weekend getaway

Even on a freezing cold weekend this little cottage was an absolute dream. We really appreciated the well stocked kitchen, pellet stove, and hot tub all ready to go. My partner who is very sensitive to fragrances was very grateful for the neutral smell scape - we didn’t have to “air out” the space or move a single scented candle! Thank you! We definitely look forward to staying here again in the future.

Breathtaking views and thoughtful details

Great!

Very comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed our stay very much. Just a couple fyi’s. Neighbor across the street (Rob I think) helped us get out of the ice in front of the garage. With the frozen driveway, the space in front of the garage could have been better cleared of ice. We also think the remote for the tv needs new batteries. We were able to navigate around this via the Roku app, but figured you would want to know. Thank you!

Short trip out of Rochester

My partner and I decided to take a little trip out of the city and stayed at this gem of a cottage. The views from the property were absolutely breath-taking and the residence itself was very comfortable and clean. Also was conveniently located near a few wineries and nice places to hike. 10/10 would reconnect to anyone looking for a place to stay!

Perfect way to celebrate US

This cottage is absolutely amazing. Clean, cute, has all that you need. The outdoor area is just as amazing. The pictures don't do this place justice. We came from a Wed-Sunday to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary and we did just that. If you are looking to unwind, be one with nature, and love wine, you will love this place. We plan on being back. Thank you Adam for being a wonderful host.
