About this property

New Blue Lake House in the Heart of the Finger Lakes

Welcome to the lake! You could wake up to the view above everyday by renting this brand new lake house on the popular Cayuga Lake.

Better than a home away from home -- everything needed for a fun, relaxing week on the lake is waiting for you. The house offers plenty of room for gathering with loved ones in an idyllic getaway from the hustle of traditional day-to-day life. Completed just this year, the house features:

• 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, providing comfortable accommodation for a maximum of 8 people
• 100 feet of lakefront with two docks and a 8000# boat hoist
• Spacious decks allowing you to take in the view with your morning coffee or evening glass of wine
• Secure keyless entry -- no worrying about keeping up with a physical key while out
• A fully-equipped kitchen with silverware and dishes
• Comfortable linens for restful nights of sleep
• Additional amenities include:
○ Kitchen (and related essentials)
○ Wireless Internet
○ TV (cable)
○ Towels (including beach towels)
○ Heating
○ Air conditioning
○ Washer
○ Dryer
○ Free parking on premises
○ 2 Kayaks and a Row Boat

The house is also fitted with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, a fire extinguisher and first aid kit for peace of mind.

In addition to summer fun, the lake house is great for housing family and friends for nearby college graduation ceremonies, wine tastings and attending the annual motorsports races in Watkins Glen, or any reason you have to for visiting the Finger Lakes region. Of course there is a brand new casino just miles away.

The house is located in Seneca Falls on Cayuga Lake, the longest of the five Finger Lakes at 38 miles in length. Seneca Falls has several restaurants and is home of the Woman's Rights museum.

At the southernmost point of the lake, the college town of Ithaca, is perfect for non-water related excursions. Both Cornell, an Ivy League institution, and Ithaca College are located there. However, Ithaca has much more to offer than college life. The charming, walking-friendly downtown district includes a diverse collection of shops, restaurants, bars, museums, and cinemas.


While many will not want to leave the lake, if you would like to venture out further, there are several parks and outdoor activities located nearby (please view the list below). In addition, Niagara Falls and all of the world-renown wineries of the Finger Lakes are all day-trip possibilities. And if wine isn't your thing, Ithaca Beer Co. has you covered.

If you're looking to press your luck, a visit to the also brand new del Lago Resort & Casino, located in Tyre on the northern side of Lake Cayuga, affords you the opportunity to test your fortunes -- and maybe gain an extra dollar or more!

• Ithaca Farmers Market (Saturdays only) at Steamboat Landing
• Paleontological Research Institution’s Museum of the Earth

Amazing!!

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property. It is a gorgeous home, spacious and equipped with everything you will need to enjoy yourselves. The house was absolutely immaculate and we appreciated all that we had access to - stocked kitchen, kayaks, life jackets, plenty of towels, fire wood, outdoor grilling tools, and the list goes on. Tod was super communicative and made the process smooth and easy - though we never had an issue we needed to reach out for! The location is great - easy to get to Seneca Falls, enjoy the wine trails, state park, etc. Would highly recommend this to anyone!

Wonerful!

This property is all that is advertised. Right on the lake with a rowboat and several kayaks, floats to just float around on or to be towed behind a rental powerboat that can be kept at your own dock. Outdoor grilling and dining lakeside or plenty of room to eat indoors. My wife especially enjoyed the completely screened in porch. Tod is a great host and deserves kudos!

Absolutely perfect!

From the minute we pulled up in front of the house till the day we had to say our sad goodbye this was an amazing house,experience and vacation! The House and the beautiful dock on the lake made it hard to leave! The area offers so much to do, visits to local wineries, distilleries and breweries. We visited the wineries on a beautiful pontoon boat that picked us up on our dock. The Aurora Inn back deck for wine and a delicious cheese plate was a nice way to spend an afternoon. We kayaked, fished from the dock and just enjoyed the view. Waking up to the sunrise and the waves hitting the shoreline was heaven! This is a special house with everything you need for a perfect vacation in the Finger Lakes! Spotless, equipped with everything you need and lots to do in the area, Five star all the way!

Awesome & Amazing Lake House Vacation!

Blue Lake House is perfect for a family vacation on the western shore of Cayuga Lake. The house is immaculately clean and the best stocked house we have ever rented. The house is new, and all of the finishes are extremely high end. We had room for everyone and it felt like a high end resort! We enjoyed the screened in porch every day and every night. The beds and linens are extremely comfortable. Truly a luxury property in every sense. The kitchen and baths and entire house are stocked beyond your expectations with everything you could need on vacation. The dock and the boat lift are fantastic, and Tod provided wood for the fire pit. The location is really lovely...close to Seneca Falls, wineries, state parks, golf, great restaurants, groceries, shops, and other fun towns in the Finger Lakes. We enjoyed the kayaks, and the grill, and rented a boat for the week on Tod's suggestion which worked out perfectly. Tod was the greatest host...very welcoming and super helpful with suggestions and a speedy answer to all of my questions. He is easily reachable and the process was so smooth and flawless. Tod and his family made us feel so welcomed in their gorgeous home. This is a beautiful home and they have thought of everything!

Fabulous Cayuga lake vacation

Blue Lake House was everything we expected and more. The private location was perfectly situated on the western shore of Cayuaga Lake with walk-out lake access. The spacious house was laid out perfectly for our family. The resort-like amenities and attention to detail were spectacular and made our vacation one we will always remember. The owners were very helpful and responsive to all our questions. We highly recommend renting this goregeous home.

Fantastic week at the lake

My family and I had a fantastic week at the blue lake house. Todd the owner was great to deal with from the booking process, to checking out. He always responded very quickly to any communication. On arrival the owners had provided a welcome pack, which was so thoughtful, we really did feel at home. There was everything we needed at the house and the layout was perfect for our family of 5. The house was exactly as the pictures portrayed, and the serenity and many outside seating areas worked perfectly for us. We had our own jet ski, but rented a boat for the week from finger lakes boat rentals, which was very easy, and they delivered right to the boat dock We couldn't have asked for a better week away, thank you Todd, for being such a fantastic host

Wonderful in all respects

What a lovely lake home — very well appointed and comfortable, with amazing views. Nothing about this house feels like a cold, sparse rental. Tod was a great host, responded immediately with questions, and his restaurant recommendations did not disappoint! We fell in love with the area and can’t wait to come back.

blue house

The house is beautiful. It looks very unassuming when you pull up and when you get inside its so lovely. It was the perfect size for our group. We especially loved the screened in porch and spent so much time in there. Tod pays attention to even small details of having vacuums and cleaning supplies easily available which during this time of coronavirus made me feel so comfortable. I would absolutely recommend staying at this home!

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL HOME

As I told Tod, the pictures do not do this property justice. It is such a beautiful home. The beds were so comfortable. The owners have spared no expense making sure their guests are comfortable and have everything you could possibly need. The kitchen was well stocked. There were kayaks and life jackets and other items for us to use in the lake. We were here with our daughter, son in law and two grandchildren. The adults were relaxing and enjoying the view so often that we didn't want to leave to go out to dinner which is rare on family vacaitons. We made memories we will treasure. Thank you for the use of your amazing Blue Lake House! S. Payne

Beautiful rental with an equally beautiful view

Another wonderful stay at this lakehouse. Our stay, while a short 3-day visit, was even better than our first last year. There is something about this location that makes a vacation special. It's a quiet, comfortable location that has great lake access. Both times that we stayed here, it was very clean and well-supplied. We are making our plans for next year and this is the only place we will consider. I would highly recommend this lake house rental to anyone. Thanks to Tod for renting us such a great place!

Great place to stay!

The house was clean and well kept. The living area was spacious and great for hanging around with family and friends. Amazing lake views on both levels. I especially enjoyed morning coffee on the balcony overlooking Cayuga Lake and in the evening watching the sunset.

Absolutely Amazing

The pictures on the website do not do this house justice. Tod spared no expense making this house truely a 5 Star and beyond vacation. The amenities were fantastic, beds the most comfortable kind, and Tod was fabulous to work with. He made sure we had everything we needed and was always quick to respond. The area has everything from wineries, beer gardens and great little eateries. Wolffys, which is 3 miles North, is a great lakefront place you can take your boat to and enjoy ourdoor ior indoor eating. Food is good especially the wings! We rented a pontoon boat for the week from Finger Lake Boat Rentals and they were very affordable and really nice boats and service. We will be sure to come back again!

Beautiful house inside and out. Just bring your personal needs and you're ready for a relaxing time.

This vacation home has it all for a relaxing fun filled time. The house is equipped with all your needs from toilet paper to wood for the fire pit. The lake view is spectacular from the many windows and decks. The lake itself was clear and nice for swimming and boating with the provided kayaks. The fishing was good and an exciting activity for all. Our family, children aged 1,2,4,6 and 5 adults including grandma was very comfortable with the living arrangements. The enclosed porch and upper deck were perfect and safe for the young children to use independently. One could be together with the group or find a place of solitude. I can't say enough good things about the Blue Lake House. We all felt right at home the moment we walked through the door.

Amazing on all fronts

This house is amazing and the lakefront is great for small kids (easy water access/not too deep). It’s relatively new, so it has all the amenities you could ever ask for. The view is fantastic from all levels and with it being on the west side of the lake it gave us an opportunity to catch some amazing sunrises. Its location is great for trips to Seneca Falls/Geneva, Taughannock Falls, and Ithaca. We’d definitely recommend the Blue Lake House.
