Holiday rentals with lake access in Tompkins County

The house is beautifully renovated and very high tech!!! The kitchen is a dream. Loved the furniture and fire pit on the deck. Convenient to Ithaca and many restaurants/ hikes. Master bed very comfortable. Love that each bedroom has its own bathroom. We all took turns with the massage chair every night - it was a big hit! Lorena was very kind and responsive. Would definitely stay again!

absolutely beautiful place. everything was perfect for our little get away. we will definitely be back!

We booked this home after changing our trip dates and losing the original house we rented. Boy, was it worth it!! The home is Beautiful! The views, natural light, huge master bathroom, and the most comfortable couch were just some of our favorite things. One of the bedrooms had kids' books and toys, and it was perfect for our 4-year-old daughter. The owners' communication with us was at its best! We look forward to returning next year!

We loved this house! Exactly as described. Very clean, well maintained, cute decor with personal touches, but it’s the views that are incredible, beautiful, and peaceful. The location is stunning, and the amazing Taughannock Falls are less than a mile down the road. Andy was responsive, friendly and welcoming. We were in town for college graduation (IC or Cornell are about a 20 minute drive), with parents and grandparents. Was a great spot for all of us. When I asked if there was an iron (had to get those graduation clothes ready!), Andy made sure one was in the house for us when we got there. One thing to know - the beach and the dock are down a steep set of stairs. Andy offered use of his tram if we needed help getting down there, so that’s a nice option. There is a nice grassy area and dock by the water. I highly recommend this place!

Had a wonderful time at David's lakeside house! Spent a few days here with close friends in conjunction with a reunion. We had a great time sitting out on the back deck chatting, catching up and enjoying the views of the lake while drinking wine. We also very much enjoyed the kayaks that are provided. The house is well provisioned and very comfortable (including the beds). David was a great host and very responsive and flexible.

Can’t say enough about First Light II - the place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed! And the view! Mario and Sarah Jeannie were wonderful hosts - great communication and so thoughtful, bringing over a bottle of wine and meeting to show us all the available outdoor equipment. If you are ever in Ithaca, I would definitely stay here! It was perfect for us for our daughter’s graduation!

First time in Ithica, and this was a great place to stay near downtown. We specifically wanted to be on the water, and this place delivered. Very cozy and comfortable house for our family. Looking to come back in the summer and bring our boat and take full advantage of the dock/lake.

Perfect venue for a family occasion.

We enjoyed our stay! It was in a nice location and very walkable to town and the lake. We found the neighborhood a little noisy in the evenings but with white noise or a fan it was easier to sleep. The home was beautiful and we enjoyed all of the flameless candles too!

The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway

Had a girls weekend, and this was the perfect place. Beautiful views and had everything we needed. Host was very responsive and friendly. Gave us great recommendations for places to eat. Would love to come back.

I stayed at Jason and Luisa’s place for a concert and couldn’t have asked for a better spot! The location was super walkable to great food and coffee, and there was plenty of parking available. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The hosts were incredibly responsive and went above and beyond by sharing helpful info I didn’t even think to ask for. They were also kind enough to accommodate a later check-in time, which made things so much easier.

We had a great stay in Geneva, right on the water. We stayed in the cottage property and luckily for most of our stay, there was no other guests in the main house. With that, we felt more comfortable using the shared deck and game room. The cottage was perfect for our stay, very local to downtown Geneva easy to get to other wineries, breweries, hikes along Seneca Lake. Although it rained most of our trip, so we didn't get to use the kayaks, but we were able to enjoy a night outside with the firepit by the water (make sure to bring your own wood / lighter to get this started!) The game room was also super fun and a nice feature! Overall, we had a great stay and no complaints! Would recommend for a couple looking for a nice stay on the water.

Great place for a girl’s getaway. My 2 friends and I enjoyed our 3 night stay. We never left the property! It was so peaceful and relaxing! We plan to come back next year!!

Our Sister provided this wonderful place to stay in for our Nephews Wedding. Even the visit was short it was a wonderful place to stay Geneva has a wonderful feeling super nice people and unbelievable food. We are planning a trip back to this area ❤️

We loved the wine down bungalow! It was in a perfect spot and extremely cozy and peaceful. It was very clean and comfortable! The view of the lake was very nice and the shared dock was perfect for a glass of wine and the sunset. I recommend this to anyone wanting a nice getaway!

Highly recommend. The house was clean, exactly as described, comfortable for family of 5. Amazing lake view from house and only few steps to lake. Perfect place for sunset view over the lake.

This lakefront cottage was in a beautiful location and directly on the water, so you could go to sleep and wake up to the peaceful sounds of the lake. Every bit of space was used efficiently, resulting in the place feeling roomier than you may think at first glance. It was even pet-friendly with our dog finding a nice spot right by the door where he could watch all the happenings on the lake no matter what the weather! Thanks for a great weekend stay!

We had an amazing stay! The property was clean, cozy and well appointed. We loved having our own private space to enjoy looking out at the lake on both the deck of the house and down by the water itself. So, wonderfully relaxing. We decided to make dinner ourselves one night to better enjoy our time at the house and it’s beautiful surroundings. The kitchen was well appointed and we had everything we needed including a grill in the yard. The home owner was very accessible and helpful when we had a few minor questions. The property itself was situated close enough to the town of Geneva for restaurants and the grocery store but also close to some unique wineries and breweries right nearby. (Side note: War Horse Brewery - Well worth checking out!) I would highly recommend staying at this property. We had a fantastic time. You won’t be disappointed!

Excellent stay! Really nice having water access and a yard for our dog to run around in! Place was well kept and the paddle boards and grill were in great shape.

Our stay at Kate’s was perfect for my graduation weekend. The house had everything we needed, and the views were absolutely stunning. Kate was super responsive and really accommodating, which made everything easy. I’d definitely love to come back when the weather’s nicer and try out the kayaks and paddleboards. Highly recommend!

The home was a clean and lovely little house with a wonderful view of Song Lake. Everything matched the listing and the area was nice with good restaurants within a short drive (15 Min). The host was very nice and gave us all of the information we would need ahead of time.

Amazing stay! Jude and her dogs and her husband are truly amazing people! We had a wonderful stay and would come back in a heartbeat!!! We spent our honeymoon here and it was magical- best place to honeymoon! Jude was the most amazing host!

The cottage was delightful to stay at. There was a binder with details about local businesses that was very helpful. The kitchen knives along with the pots and pans are very good quality. My husband is a chef and he was delighted.
