Looking for something a little different for your lakeside vacation Escape to Sycamore Landing. The 165 feet of level lakefront gives you plenty of elbow room and unobstructed vistas of the Bristol Mountains and a 180 degree lake view of the quiet south end of beautiful Canandaigua Lake. The private, gravel road minimizes traffic and maximizes privacy. Retreat from the daily grind and enjoy lake living in an incredible natural setting. Our traditional lake cottage offers everything from boating, swimming, kayaking and fishing. Sit and watch bald eagles fly from their nearby nesting grounds, hummingbirds flock to your window daily, ducks and geese wander and herons stand watch in the marshlands at the end of the lake. Relax under the large sycamore tree which beckons you to sit and soak up the incredible beauty of Canandaigua Lake and rolling hillsides.

The screened front porch gives you the traditional “lake” feeling - have a meal, a cool drink or just relax and read a good book (and maybe fall asleep!) while gazing out on a panoramic view of the lake. The sliding glass door from the porch leads to the indoor living space with large windows featuring lake views welcoming you to relax without taking you away from the lake. Our eat-in kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to prepare meals. The master bedroom overlooks the lake while still being shaded by our lovely sycamore tree. The 2nd bedroom offers a view of the cliffs and seasonal waterfall behind our cottage.

The yard offers multiple grassy level areas to play yard games, stretch out under the sun or enjoy a bon fire. The front yard offers plenty of room for lounging lakeside, while the back yard is great for barbecuing and viewing the picturesque cliffs. Just a few steps up to the large side yard, yields additional space for a tent or yard games with spectacular vistas of the south end of the lake.
Bring your boat and use the available mooring whips installed on the permanent dock for your use. Woodville boat launch just across the lake makes for an easy launch and there is room for trailer storage at the cottage during your stay.
Fisherman can get a hassle-free, early morning start from this ideal location.
Kayakers love this location. Enjoy the calm open lake water of the south end or venture into the West River Marsh and enjoy up to 4 miles of easy paddling while you spot bald eagles, herons, turtles and more! Bring your own kayak or use the ones provided.
Sycamore Landing makes a terrific home base for land lover activities as well. Hikers can choose all types of hiking experiences from novice to challenging including the Parish Glen, Conklin Gully (12 Waterfalls), Hi Tor Management Area and Cumming Nature Center.
We chose this location because it is “the road less traveled”, yet still centered among a wide variety of activities and amenities. Canandaigua offers convenient shopping, waterparks, and historic landmarks, while Naples (15 min.) is home to a wonderful artisan community that offers everything from wood carvings to watercolor paintings and everything in between. Looking for a home base for your wine tours We are just a short run to many of the finest wineries on Keuka and Seneca Lake wineries.
During your stay at Sycamore Landing you will always feel “connected” to the lake and nature, whether you are inside or out, engaging in activities on the lake or off, or just looking for some rest and relaxation with one of the most picturesque settings in the world. We know you’ll enjoy your stay.

    all factors of both our visits to Sycamore Landing was fine--we will plan to keep an eye on the calendar for Spring/Late summer for 2026--this is a perfect rental for us!

    My family loved staying at the house. Being right on the lake made for beautiful mornings and evenings - and midday we enjoyed taking day trips to explore more of the Finger Lakes - great base from which to do that! I'm particular about air conditioning, and loved having the mini-splits so we could control each room separately - and they're so quiet! Everything you'd need is in the house. We loved the kayaks and fishing off the dock. Sally was great to communicate with. So much fun and wonderful house! Thank you!!

    This property had everything we wanted in a vacation - quiet waterfront property, spacious yard, quality dock for our boat, a gorgeous screened in porch for ample outdoor time, amazing views of the lake from the house and deck. So many more good things, but needless to say, we will be back.

    We booked after Labor Day and enjoyed a peaceful stay at the south end of the lake. Sunny days were spent kayaking, boating, golfing or just reading a book. Even the inclement day held delights in watching the storm approach and the lightening show at night. Highly recommend this slice of heaven.

    This stay exceeded our expectations. This is a wonderful, clean, comfortable and casual home at the quiet end of Lake Canandaigua. The porch is excellent - we ate every meal out there, and spent a good portion of our time there. The house and grounds are well maintained. We also appreciated having modern AC, as there were a few hot days during our stay. Highly recommended.
