The newly renovated Jepsen Heritage Cottage, is located off State Rt. 54A at (formerly 42) 420 Crescent Beach Dr, at the northern end of the West branch of Keuka Lake about 1.5 miles from Branckport and 10 miles from Penn Yan. It is in a quiet family community with both seasonal cottages and year-round homes.
Guests of the cottage will enjoy an unobstructed, picturesque view of the western branch of Keuka Lake from a 2012 rebuilt enclosed porch. This includes a view of Bluff Point and the eastern branch which is nearly 10 miles away. 2017 brought a rebuild of the entrance porch and bathroom areas.

The cottage is situated on a level location from the 4 car parking area on the north, to the cottage, and then gently slopes to the water's edge. There are two small steps to the north entrance and a 2 step entrance to a newly constructed outside deck, on the the west.
The 55 - foot frontage is a fine-pebble beach which provides easy
access to shallow water. This area is perfect for families who desire wading or swimming, or just relaxing with a good book.
The water depth increases very gradually, from approximately 24 at the end of the dock to 4' deep at 130 feet from shore. The buoys mark the drop off to the deeper waters of the lake and are a favorite spot for fishermen from around the world.
Our 80' dock includes a 160' deck with peaceful glider and Adirondack chairs, for a relaxing view of the entire west branch of Keuka Lake.
Inside the buoys is a no-wake zone, giving safe swimming and recreation for families.
Previous guest's comments after staying at the Jepsen Heritage.
'The cottage is so cozy and well equipped!'
'It was just wonderful to wake up in the morning to the lovely view of the lake!'
'Thank you for a wonderful place to vacation. Best view of the lake! This cottage has character, and many comforts. We love it!'
'This is our 6th stay in your cottage...in lovely Keuka Lake, Branchport. The fishing is excellent and we are already making plans to come back!'
'Getting up this morning and hearing the waves hit the shore is the best music ever composed!'
'Being from the city (New York), we absolutely needed this perfect rest, replete with tree frogs and ducks!'
'We have never been to the Finger Lakes before...so glad we came. We
decided that Crescent Beach was the most beautiful place to stay!'
'What a beautiful cottage, we had a wonderful vacation here, and the
shallow water was perfect for our 4 and 2 year olds! We would like to
come back!'
'We had a great time! Highlights of the week included daily walks to the State Park, a hike to the top of Watkins Glen, and lunch on the terrace of Bully Hill! Thanks for a wonderful week!'
And from a younger visitor.... 'At first I was a little mad that we were spending my birthday here. The second I got here though, I changed my mind. I loved it here. The swimming part, the Mercantile, everything was awesome! I really want to return!'
'The new kitchen, porch, and deck are wonderful!'

    We loved our stay in the cottage right on the water. So peaceful and a perfect get a way for my husband and I. Definitely recommend sleeping in the room overlooking the water. A perfect way to wake up. Easy to cleanup and loved the historical aspect. Would definitely recommend!

    The property is well maintained and is right on the water. It was very nice for our kids to be able to walk out the door and look for small seashells.

    We enjoyed the comfortable cottage footsteps from the lake. The cottage had everything we needed for a four-person family gathering. We brought kayaks, paddleboards and floats, and enjoyed them all. I swam every day from the dock. I walked out quite far and it never went over my head. On calm afternoons there was a lot of just floating on the water.Stores for daily needs were just a short drive away in Branchport. Restaurants and grocery stores were a little longer drive in the other direction toward Penn Yan.We found the neighbors on both sides to be very pleasant and friendly. We also enjoyed the fire pit most nights when it was calm.All in all a great stay!

    The cottage is as described right near the lake with a beautiful view. Very clean and comfortable inside and out. Lake area was a bit seaweedy but we went swimming at a nearby park. Great fireworks show July 4. Neighbors very nice and we enjoyed our stay very much. Thanks Chris and Joan!

    Everything was great! with the exception of the parking for two full size trucks with 21-foot bass boats. There's enough space, just difficult to turn on the narrow street.

    Beautiful views, quiet setting, cozy house on the water. This is the perfect place for a quiet escape to recharge, reconnect and just enjoy the moment. Highly recommend this home for your next lake visit.

    Very nice property. Great views. Friendly neighbors. We enjoyed feeding the resident ducks. At night we could relax to the sound of the water lapping at the shore.

    My sister and I had a wonderful stay at this cottage. We loved the glider at the end of the dock. Spent each afternoon there enjoying the view of the lake. You can walk really far into the lake before getting to the deep part. We had to spend one day inside because of the rain but we sat on the sun porch and were still able to enjoy the view of the lake. There were laminated notes around that we found very helpful, such as how to operate the futons, the tv, etc. and where things were located. Chris and Joan were very nice hosts and got right back to you if you had questions. The neighbors were very friendly and we were grateful to them for their help to us. We will definitely try to go back here for vacation
