Nestled in Hammondsport, New York—named “The Coolest Small Town in America”—this vacation rental places you in the heart of the Finger Lakes region, surrounded by stunning scenery, award-winning wineries, and a vibrant small-town atmosphere. Here, you can start your mornings with quiet coffee by the water, spend your afternoons exploring the lake or the nearby village, and end your evenings with laughter around the dinner table or on the porch as the sun sets in brilliant shades over the hills.
The spacious living room is a place to truly unwind. Large windows frame sweeping views of Keuka Lake, letting in abundant natural light during the day and creating a warm glow in the evenings. Comfortable seating invites you to curl up with a book, watch a movie, or simply take in the scenery. Step through the doors onto the covered porch and you’ll find a quiet retreat for enjoying a glass of Finger Lakes wine, reading in the shade, or watching boats drift by on the water.
At the heart of the home is a bright, open kitchen, designed to bring people together. With ample counter space, modern appliances, and thoughtful touches, it’s easy to prepare anything from simple breakfasts to full family feasts. The sunny breakfast nook is perfect for a quick bite before a day on the water, and the formal dining area comfortably seats up to 14 guests at a large table, making it ideal for shared meals, holiday celebrations, and lingering conversations. An additional table by the windows offers extra seating or a perfect spot for puzzles and games, all with views of the lake just beyond. On the lower level, you’ll find a game room with a pool table, shuffleboard table, a comfortable seating area, ping pong table, and a dart board. Additional amenities at this home include a washer and dryer, Wifi, cable, and window AC units in each bedroom.
With six bedrooms spread across two levels, Country Charm offers plenty of space for everyone to rest and recharge while still being close enough to enjoy each other’s company. The layout is ideal for multi-family vacations, giving each group their own private sleeping area. Located on the main floor, the master suite is a restful sanctuary. It features a king-sized bed, a television for evening relaxation, and an attached bath with a walk-in shower equipped with support bars for added safety and convenience. Upstairs, you’ll find five additional bedrooms, each designed with comfort in mind. Three of these bedrooms feature king-sized beds with private baths, offering privacy and convenience for couples or older family members. The remaining bedrooms are perfect for children, teens, or additional guests, with flexible sleeping arrangements to suit any group.
One of the most treasured features of Country Charm is its private lakefront, located just across the road from the house. Here, you’ll have 42 feet of natural shoreline, perfect for swimming, boating, or simply soaking up the sun. A gradual, shallow entry makes the lake safe and inviting for swimmers of all ages, and there are only four easy steps from the road to the beach—making water access quick and convenient. Spend the day splashing in the clear waters, kayak in one of the provided kayaks, then relax on the lakefront deck, an ideal spot for outdoor meals, evening drinks, or simply admiring the beauty of Keuka Lake. The property also includes a 3' x 40' dock, giving you the perfect launch point for boating or mooring your own vessel. Bring your fishing gear or paddleboards and make the most of your time on the lake. When night falls, roast s’mores around the lakeside fire pit and watch the moonlight reflect off the water.
While Country Charm feels private and peaceful, it’s also wonderfully close to everything that makes the Finger Lakes special. In just minutes, you can be in downtown Hammondsport, where charming shops, local eateries, and the picturesque village square invite you to linger. Wine lovers will appreciate the home’s proximity to Keuka Lake Wine Trail, where award-winning vineyards like Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery and Heron Hill Winery offer an afternoon of exploration and flavor. Foodies will enjoy a variety of farm-to-table restaurants serving locally sourced dishes that showcase the best of the region, as well as lakeside dining options such as The Switzerland Inn, Main Deck, and Lakeside on Keuka Lake.
If you’re feeling adventurous, there are plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy nearby—hiking through scenic gorges, biking along country roads, or taking a boat tour to fully appreciate Keuka Lake’s beauty from the water. Seasonal events and festivals add even more charm, making Hammondsport a destination worth returning to year after year. For the fishing enthusiast in the group, opportunities abound in the Finger Lakes. Cayuga Lake, Canandaigua Lake, and Seneca Lake all offer excellent opportunities for catching trout, bass, salmon, walleye, and perch. Visit Taughannock Falls State Park to witness the tallest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains, kayak around Keuka Lake, enjoy a scenic drive along Seneca Lake or explore downtown Penn Yan or Hammondsport. No matter what adventures you choose to undertake during your stay, your entire group is guaranteed to create lasting and wonderful memories together!
The combination of lakeside beauty, thoughtful amenities, and a location that puts you close to everything you want to see and do makes this Finger Lakes vacation rental a true gem. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the porch in the morning, sharing a bottle of local wine under the stars, or watching the kids play in the shallows, every moment here feels special. From its spacious layout and private bedrooms to its unbeatable lake access and charming setting in Hammondsport, Country Charm has everything you need for a relaxing and memorable getaway.
