Breathtaking sunsets!

This is our 4th annual trip to the Finger Lakes region but the first time staying in Waneta Lake. The property is beautiful and spacious with a nice open concept that is perfect for families to spend time together. The floor to ceiling glass windows allow for a perfect view of the lake and the amazing sunsets regardless of how chilly it is outside. Being able to walk out a few steps and fish was a huge plus for us. Communication with the owner is great, she was very responsive. The only thing I wasn't used to is bringing my own linens and towels, unless I'm camping that's not normally something I need to worry about. We also ended up buying a bath mat. We had a great time and were very comfortable!

Wonderful memories made at the Lake!

Joy was a pleasure to work with! The house was beautiful/spotless & had everything we could need. The view was gorgeous! The water was perfect for our young girls to enjoy without worry. We were able to get in our kayaks easily. Neighbors were friendly and the area quiet and peaceful. Thank you for the blessed week!

Peaceful and relaxing location.

The house is located at the end of a shared stone driveway and has a beautiful view across Waneta Lake. My wife and I wanted a house that was close to some of the waterfall hikes, breweries and wineries in the area. We loved our hikes and exploring, but also looked forward to returning to the house in the secluded and peaceful setting. Each morning we sat in front of the large windows overlooking the lake and watched as daylight slowly started and the birds began to fly up and down the lake.

Amazing NY trip

Joy was great to work with - she answered all our questions and met us when we arrived. The cottage was a perfect location to all the things we wanted to do in NY. Her place was one of the cleanest we've stayed in as well. And the view is beautiful!

Panoramic views

My fiance and I stayed here for a week and throughly enjoyed ourselves. Whether just being in the house overlooking the lake, swimming in the lake or traveling to the many close, local venues we felt like we truly experienced the finger lakes. Joy was always available to help with anything; the house or local attractions. I'd recommend this rental to anyone. The view are unbeatable.

Family Vacation

My husband, 2 boys, and myself had an amazing family vacation at the cottage. We swam, fished, had fires (with smores obviously), played games, paddle boarded, and generally just enjoyed sitting in the Adirondack chairs which were very comfortable on the deck over the lake anytime of the day. We also explored some of the area's wineries with favorites being Weiss and Barnstormer, went hiking at Watkin's Glen gorge and Taughannock Falls, and enjoyed too many breweries to name! The cottage itself was very clean and had a well outfitted kitchen. It was very open and airy with great views of the lake. Wasn't a big deal for us, but you do need to bring your own sheets/towels and drinking water (water itself is fine for showering etc, just has sulphur taste/smell that you don't want to consume much of). Joy communicated with us very well even before our stay answering all our questions and during out stay gave us some great recommendations. I have three recommendations for future guests. The first is that there is a Dollar General store just down the road that is very convenient for forgotten items, food, etc (or bribes for your kids when you take them to wineries all day). The second is to hit up the Waneta Lake Boathouse restaurant. They don't have a sign on the road, but food (pizza especially), drinks, atmosphere, and service was great although check their hours ahead of time. The third is that firewood is easy to get at any number of near roadside stands ($3-5 per bundle).

Beautiful Lake Views and Great Location

We enjoyed our week long stay. This comfortable cottage has a nice open plan with full length windows overlooking beautiful Waneta Lake. The boathouse deck was also a nice feature. The pictures show a true representation of the property. We also enjoyed the location as nearby attractions were 15 to 30 mins. away. Joy made communication and check in very easy.

We had a very relaxing stay at Joy's cottage which was tucked amidst the trees, with a panoramic view of Lake Waneta. The cottage was immaculate and Joy's attention to detail in terms of providing the guests with all the amenities was very thoughtful and appreciated. Just shows how super efficient she is as a host.

Fantastic weekend getaway

We had an amazing visit on a beautiful October weekend when the fall foliage was at it's peak. Just sitting on the deck and taking it all in was so relaxing and rejuvenating. The view from inside was just as nice. The house was open and airy and immaculately clean and just 15 minutes from the charming town of Hammondsport which could easily be right off the set of a Hallmark movie!

Joy is the 4th generation in her family to be on Waneta Lake. She has spent summers on Waneta Lake her whole life and is always happy to share any information she can about the lake and the surrounding area.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage is located approximately half way down the east side of Waneta Lake – one of the best locations on the lake! This premier location is perfect for swimming, boating, and fishing right from the dock. The cottage is off the main road on a quiet lane shared with a handful of other cottages. There is ample front and back yard space for yard games, campfires, and family fun. The deck on top of the boathouse is a perfect spot for a morning cup of coffee, outdoor meals, or just relaxing. The views from the property both during the day and at sunset are breathtaking.
