Stunning cottage on Cayuga Lake, near wineries, waterfalls, Cornell University

Welcome to your dream vacation home. This cottage, situated on the shores of Cayuga Lake, deep in the heart of the Finger Lakes Region is a modern take on the classic cottage. It is cozy yet airy, with a high, vaulted ceiling, a custom wood kitchen, a huge wrap around porch facing the lake. The master bedroom overlooks the lake and the gentle lapping of the waves will lull you to sleep. This is a truly exquisite property that offers a relaxed atmosphere while simultaneously providing an upscale, contemporary feel.
During your stay at Thomas Cottage, be sure to visit the myriad wineries along the Cayuga and Seneca Wine Trails. Visit quaint Trumansburg, NY and grab a cup of coffee at the local favorite, Gimme coffee. Visit the tallest waterfall in NY, Taughannock Falls, a mere 10 minute drive away. Venture a bit further south and find your way to artsy Ithaca, NY, home of Cornell University and Ithaca College. Enjoy the Ithaca Farmers market, the exciting restaurants and explore the Ithaca Commons. There is SO much to do and see in the Finger Lakes, you’ll be planning your next visit before you even leave.
