Description
Nestled just minutes from downtown Seneca Falls, Lotta Leisure is a cozy Cayuga Lake vacation home that lives up to its name. This inviting Finger Lakes vacation rental blends classic lakeside charm with modern comfort, offering families, couples, and small groups a peaceful escape along one of the region’s most beautiful stretches of shoreline. With its welcoming atmosphere, thoughtful amenities, and prime lakefront location, Lotta Leisure provides everything you need for an unforgettable stay in the Finger Lakes.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the warmth and care that make this vacation home special. The walkway leading to the front door is lined with newly planted hydrangeas, creating a cheerful first impression and setting the tone for the relaxation that awaits inside. Step through the door into the galley-style kitchen, a bright and functional space that invites you to settle in and make yourself at home. Fully equipped with all the essentials, this kitchen makes meal preparation easy and enjoyable, whether you’re brewing coffee at sunrise or cooking a hearty dinner with local ingredients from the nearby farmers market. A convenient half bath is located just off the kitchen, perfect for freshening up after a day on the water.
The open living and dining area is the heart of the home, designed for connection and comfort. Large windows frame beautiful lake views, filling the space with natural light and a serene sense of calm. The living area features cozy seating that invites you to curl up with a book, play board games with family, or simply gaze out over Cayuga Lake as the afternoon sunlight sparkles across the surface. The adjoining dining space offers room for shared meals and long conversations, whether you’re planning the day’s adventures or reminiscing about the ones you’ve already had.
Step through the sliding glass door to the screened-in porch—a guest favorite and perhaps the most peaceful spot in the home. This serene lakeside retreat offers uninterrupted views of the water, where mornings begin with the soft glow of sunrise and evenings close with the tranquil sounds of gentle waves lapping the shore. Enjoy a quiet cup of coffee, an afternoon nap, or a sunset drink as you breathe in the fresh Finger Lakes air.
Upstairs, the home’s two bedrooms provide restful comfort and privacy. The primary bedroom features a plush queen bed and charming décor that reflects the relaxed spirit of lake life. The second bedroom includes both a double and a twin bed, making it ideal for families or small groups. A full bathroom and laundry area are also conveniently located on this level, allowing guests to pack light and feel right at home. With the living areas downstairs and the bedrooms tucked away above, the home’s layout perfectly balances shared space and personal retreat.
Outside, the magic of lakefront living takes center stage. A wooden staircase winds gently down to the water’s edge, bordered by wildflowers that bloom throughout the summer season. At the bottom, you’ll find your own slice of Cayuga Lake paradise—a natural, gradual entry that makes swimming and wading easy for guests of all ages. Spend the morning paddling along the shoreline in one of the provided watercrafts, or stretch out on the dock with a good book as the sun warms your skin and the sound of the water creates a soothing soundtrack to your day.
As evening falls, gather around the firepit to share stories, roast marshmallows, and watch the stars emerge in the night sky. There’s something truly special about the simple pleasures of a Finger Lakes vacation rental like this—where laughter echoes over the water and time seems to move a little slower. Whether you’re watching the moonrise over the lake or enjoying the flicker of firelight reflected on the surface, each moment feels peaceful and complete.
When you’re ready to explore, Lotta Leisure’s central location makes adventure easy. Just minutes away, you can visit the Women’s Rights National Historical Park and discover the area’s deep connection to American history. Outdoor enthusiasts can hike the scenic trails at Taughannock Falls State Park or explore the nearby Cayuga-Seneca Canal Trail. Wine lovers will appreciate the home’s proximity to the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, while foodies can enjoy local flavors at the Cayuga Lake Creamery or dine lakeside at one of the region’s acclaimed restaurants. Those visiting colleges in the area will also find it convenient—Cornell University and Ithaca College are both within a comfortable drive.
After a day of sightseeing or lakeside adventures, return to your vacation home and savor the quiet of the evening. Sit on the porch as the last light fades, listen to the gentle rhythm of the waves, and let the calm of the lake wash over you. Lotta Leisure is the kind of lakefront getaway that reminds you what vacation is meant to be—simple, comfortable, and full of small, perfect moments. Whether you’re seeking adventure or tranquility, this Finger Lakes vacation rental offers a beautiful balance of both, making it a place you’ll want to return to year after year.
