Live your Best Vacation Life! Lovely 4 BR Property on Cayuga Lake. Dog Friendly
Welcome to the Cayuga Cabana- your private paradise on Cayuga Lake! Enjoy your front row seat to the most amazing sunsets on this lakeside property!
This property is located 3 miles down a peaceful, scenic, private road. This property features a main house and a guest house. Your vacation crew will have access to 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Spend your days by the dock swimming, fishing, kayaking, or floating in a tube in the clear water of Cayuga Lake. When not enjoying the water- take advantage of the decks and the covered pavilion (with table, chairs and grill) where you can gather with your friends and family to play games, eat a meal, or just sit back and relax! Bring the marshmallows to enjoy by the fire ring!!
If you want to get away from it all—this is the place for you! Cayuga Lake is well known for its pristine water quality –making it perfect for swimming, boating and fishing. Scenic bike rides, hiking, long sunset walks along the water, jogging, and searching for fossils are all highly recommended activities!

Village of Aurora (6 miles North) - Revamped by the American Girl Doll founder, this picturesque and historic town on the shores of Cayuga lake is a must see.

NOTES As mentioned, this property is on a private road. The speed limit on this road is 10mph—please be mindful and respectful of this. Rental is towards the end of the road, so it is very peaceful with little traffic. Road is PERFECT for biking, jogging, walking, etc.. Be sure to wave at all the neighbors on the way in!
Travel time from the main road to the property is approx. 20 minutes. We highly recommend bringing your groceries and supplies with you—going to the stores can be time consuming due to the private location of the property. Spend your time enjoying the lake instead!
A boat lift is provided for V-bottom boats that weigh 4000lbs or less. If your boat does not meet this criteria, you may launch and load at Long Point State Park. Due to unpredictable weather and the 2-3 foot waves that it can bring, tying of boats to the dock is not permitted. Broken boats and docks are no fun and we know fun is the goal.
Smoking or vaping inside the property is not allowed. Feel free to smoke outside on one of the porches.
NO large or loud parties are permitted. The neighbors are lovely and kind people that are enjoying their friend and family time too. Small gatherings with your family and friends with reasonable and respectful music volume is highly encouraged!
