Waterfront vacation rentals in Cortland County

Three of us stayed at Peggy’s place for a weekend and my only regret is not booking for longer! The location is a dream—right on the lake and only a few minutes drive from the farmer’s market and other must-see places in Ithaca. I hope to come back!

The apartment was very sufficient for our needs and was clean. The location and people were the real magic of this place! Alex, Angie, and the staff, especially Jen, Bob and Amanda are some of the friendliest and coolest people you will ever meet. We made some forever friends here. It was our first time to the area so having the restaurant and bar, where you get 25% off, and meeting all sorts of interesting people as well as the fabulous staff allowed us to have a unique and amazingly fun experience! Thanks to the highly social atmosphere we found out the best places to go for hikes, waterfalls, restaurants and vineyards as well as other hidden gems that most tourists wouldn’t know about. The lake is amazing for boating, fishing and swimming and they have free Kayaks too. The food and drinks here are also delicious thanks to the smoki’n skills(ribs, brisket) of Chef Bob, & the mixology mastery of Anika! Alex and his staff went above and beyond for us and we will definitely be back! 5*

This place was great! We enjoyed the view of the lake and the dock! The proximity to Ithaca was also a plus. Would definitely stay here again! Dominic and the owners were very responsive and helpful with any questions.

Such nice amazing people had a great stay even tho something came Up and I had to leave early they were so nice and understanding about it and even refunded me partially

Lovely place in a gorgeous location. Well appointed. Convenient for Colgate visit. Very helpful and communicative guest. Hope to stay again!

such a gorgeous and unique place!! we were well equipped for a cozy stay in. we cooked and painted and explored outside. Maria was not only quick to respond but a pleasure to talk to :) would absolutely love to stay again in the future, thank you so much for having us

I had a really relaxing time staying at Amanda's place. She was always quick to respond to questions. The place was very clean, and I thoroughly enjoyed the view of the water. The place is a quick drive to Hamilton where there are shops and restaurants. I would definitely stay here again.

Robyn is wonderful! She is very helpful and incredibly kind. This place is paradise. A very peaceful and relaxing, home away from home. The amenities are wonderful, we were able to kayak and listen to some beautiful records, it was absolutely amazing! You will not regret staying here. Put it on your bucket list:)

Mallory was great. The home was perfect for our trip while visiting family and in town for court. We had the peace and the farm. All needs were met.

This place is truly unique. It's a get away space for musicians who share it when they aren't using it. The place has been built up and settled in. It's gorgeous, the location and the barn architecture. But it's not uptight. It feels like late 60s - early 70s rock and roll, or like classic country music. Maddy's family has a phenomenal record collection and the stereo sounds SO good. The albums we brought came to life there. There's also an excellent book collection, lots of rock and music stuff but also philosophy, literature, eco books, and classic kids book (lots of kids books and a massive toy trunk with toys for kids of all ages!). The kitchen has got pretty much everything you need, and all the basic amenities and appliances. Around about are lots of area lamps, interesting hangings, colored glass, rugs, throws, and well cared for house plants. Finally, the pond and field have not been chemical killed. So, there are lots of birds, frogs, fish, and nests.

The house was comfortable and the water views were peaceful.

This was a great house in a great location. Communication from owners was excellent, and house was well set up for guests. Would definitely stay here again.

michael and his team were great this weekend! i rented this place for my best friends bach and they could not have all been more helpful!! whether it was suggestions of places to eat, things to do, best bars around there, whatever it was, michael has the answer and was so helpful. very accommodating and super helpful with the planning process and made my life a lot easier as the planner of the event! i definitely recommend his air bnb and would love to come back! thank you again for everything michael!!

Beautiful and comfortable lake house with a gorgeous view and easy access to the lake! The kitchen was was well stocked with ample space for our family. We woke up every morning to the sounds of the birds and the water. Carolyn's suggestions for things to do and places to eat were spot on. We loved the hike at Robert Treman state park, walking around the botanic gardens and a visit to the bird lab at Sapsucker woods. Dinner at Hazelnut Kitchen was a delicious treat as well as ice cream at the Cornell Dairy Barn. Overall, I highly recommend this house if you want a peaceful and restorative vacation.

Sean’s property was beautifully maintained and exceeded our expectations. We chose this location for its accessibility, particularly for my elderly mother, and it proved to be an ideal choice. The walk to the lake was easy and convenient, making it even more enjoyable. Sean was highly responsive and communicative, promptly addressing any questions we had. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-located stay.

Hello The description listed was perfect and exact. The interior decor is warm and homey. Perfect getaway. Kitchen had everything (we cooked a lot). All utensils/cupboards are super clean and organized. Grill and all garden furniture were impeccable.
