Escape to the lake and experience a getaway like no other at this quaint home steps from Cayuga Lake! This lake house enjoys a peaceful location close to wineries, one mile from Long Point boat launch, and only one and a half miles from the charming village of Aurora. Whether you're interested in outdoor activities, shopping, dining, or cultural experiences, Aurora has something to offer for everyone! You can explore the beautiful campus of Wells College, a private liberal arts college founded in 1868, visit the MacKenzie-Childs headquarters and farm in Aurora, enjoy recreational activities on Cayuga Lake (boating, fishing, or swimming), visit some nearby wineries for tastings and tours (Heart & Hands Wine Company and Long Point Winery), dine at the historic Aurora Inn, which dates back to 1833, explore the natural beauty of the Finger Lakes region by hiking some of the nearby trails, or check out the Aurora Farmers Market for fresh produce, local crafts, and artisanal goods (summer or fall).

The home boasts an extensive deck overlooking the lake where you can dine alfresco, host summertime barbecues with the gas grill provided, challenge your friends to a game of cornhole, or unwind on the loungers. If you fancy seeing Cayuga Lake from a different angle, just bring along your boat or take advantage of the provided kayak or paddleboard and launch them from the home's private dock. It's all set up to handle boats up to 18 feet long for easy mooring.

Inside, discover a quaint open floor plan with coastal decor throughout. Prepare exquisite homemade meals in the well-appointed kitchen and, once mealtime is over, retreat to the welcoming living area featuring a sofa bed and a Roku smart TV. The main floor also houses one bedroom. The entrance to the second bedroom, half bathroom, and laundry room is under the deck in the basement. The bedroom has a Roku smart TV and a brand-new window air conditioner.
