The Sauna Cottage on Keuka Lake - Wine Trail Retreat

One never knows when looking at pics if a rustic styled cottage will be rustic and charming or worn down. In this case it was charmingly done! It had a rustic and cozy feel with many modern updates. The cottage itself was lovely with many thoughtful details. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the hosts took the time to have the cottage warm for our arrival, with some sweet welcoming touches. (It was early april and pretty chilly) My teenagers loved the sleeping loft, and I made great use of the Sauna. All 3 sleeping spaces had ample privacy. We also used the firepit nightly and enjoyed relaxing around it and enjoying some beautiful sunsets. The waterfront is well appointed with a dock and boats for personal use. Unfortunately, it was too chilly to take advantage of them. We would definitely reserve this cottage on future visits when the weather is warmer in order to take full advantage of the lake in it's prime! Its a bit off the beaten path since it's located in the middle of the Y of Keuka lake, but we hit Penn Yan in 14 mins and Hammondsport in just under 30. There were tons of amazing wineries and food spots in 20 mins or less. It's an easy spot if you want to visit places West of Keuka or Closer to Seneca Lake. We loved it! Note: The Incline to to get up to the driveway is somewhat steep & this is clearly a 3 season spot; the road on which it is located has signs that say it's not maintained from Nov 15th thru April 15th.

We stayed for a week in this absolutely adorable cottage with incredible views of Keuka Lake. The owners have carefully curated the cottage with thoughtful details and cozy surroundings for a comfortable & happy stay. We were so content we hardly left the cottage but to wander down to the gorgeous clear lake & paddle around on the kayak or canoe provided. We were able to bring our dogs & they might have had the best time of everyone. We absolutely were amazed by this cottage!
