Description
Walking into the dining room you immediately see the amazing view out over Cayuga Lake. Sit on the large porch with your morning coffee or up in the sunroom to enjoy watching an eagle soar by. Watch the boats on the lake from the porch as you grill your dinner and enjoy the view.The house has been lovingly restored with new kitchen and bathrooms and comfortable furnishings for your perfect lake vacation. Hang out on the beach and enjoy a fire by the water in the fire pit. Paddle out in the early morning in a kayak to watch the mist rise off the lake. All this, and only minutes from downtown Ithaca, Taughannock State Park, hiking trails, Cornell University and Ithaca College.Our favorite spot is the second floor sunroom, where surrounded by windows you look east toward the sunrise. The living room, dining room and TV area flow together to provide space for indoor gatherings. But, you will want to spend your time outdoors on the large porch along the entire front of the house or down at the beach. A flat area part way down provides a great spot for croquet or badminton.The five bedrooms easily accommodate up to 10 guests and have all linens provided. The beach is accessed by graceful stone stairs where a picnic table, fire pit and chairs await your beach time. A newly renovated dock and two kayaks and beach toys provide hours of lakeside fun.You can drive right up to the front door and walk right into the kitchen, a rare amenity on the west side of the lake. The primary bedroom and bathroom are also on the first floor.The Black Diamond rail-trail is just up the hill from the house where you can walk or bike for miles crossing beautiful small gorges with waterfalls. Ithaca is only 1.5 miles away with it’s famous Farmer’s Market and Hanger Theatre with summer plays. We are conveniently located for Cornell and Ithaca College graduations, alumni events and parent visits.The house is located on a hillside with a steep driveway to the house, and 106 steps from the house to the lake shore.
