Description Description

A ten-minute drive just south of downtown Geneva and located on the grounds of Rose Hill Mansion, this three-bedroom one-bath home offers a one-of-a-kind experience.  A large yard with views of historic buildings and easy access to local and tourist favorites; Rose Hill Cottage is the quintessential Finger Lakes getaway.

Inside, beautiful wood flooring spans the entirety of the home.  A corner kitchen with dark wood cabinetry is just perfect for preparing your favorite meals.  Open the cupboards to find all the necessary cooking and baking ware available to make you feel at home during your getaway.

The living and dining areas share a cozy space in the central area of Rose Hill Cottage.  Neutral colors embrace this area, bringing a sense of comfort and relaxation to the room. 

Off the living area, three bedrooms are yours to choose from.  A private room with a queen, or choose one of two with a single bed and rest before your next day of Finger Lakes fun.  Completing the floor plan is a full bath with stand-up shower.  The cottage is handicapped accessible.

Outside, a large yard is perfect for an afternoon picnic, or bring your favorite yard games from home and enjoy the day outside.  Have your morning cup of coffee out on the picnic table or toast the evening with your favorite glass of Finger Lakes wine while planning tomorrow’s adventures.

Fun and opportunity are everywhere you look!  Experience a taste of life on a 19th-century farm estate when you visit Rose Hill Mansion.   Once the center of a busy and productive farm, the house and gift shop are open seasonally for guided tours.   Adventures are plenty whether you’re attending an event at the Women’s Rights National Historical Park in Seneca Falls, attending a graduation at Hobart and William Smith Colleges or visiting the local wineries and micro-breweries in the area.  Don’t forget to take your new favorite bottle of wine, or growler of beer home with you.  The Spray Park in the Seneca Lake State Park is perfect for a hot afternoon.  Stroll up and down the park’s walking trail and soaking up the view of Seneca Lake.  Many attractions are within a 15-minute drive.

We enjoyed our stay at the rose hill cottage.

Wheelchair friendly!

This cottage could not have been more perfect for my brother who is wheelchair bound. It is spacious, clean, and easy for anyone in a wheelchair to get around. Upon arrival we were provided with a little bottle of dish soap + sponge, a roll of paper towels, rags, extra trash bags, and one load worth of Tide. The home sleeps four and we were given exactly four towels. This was the only dilemma we really had since my brother requires 2 to 3 towels to shower. Thankfully there was a nice washer and dryer on property though!

Helpful comments for host--We loved our stay, but. . .

The property was meticulously neat and comfortable, but not for foodies. It is set up for the take-out crowd. If you want people who enjoy cooking for themselves, it needs a work island or usable counter workspace, at least one decent knife (the ones in the block were not sharp and were all serrated, and a dishwasher.

Great cozy stay at Rose Hill cottage

Me my husband, my daughter 16 yrs old and our sweet dog Isla just loved this cozy cottage. It had the most beautiful view of the lake and the grounds were ours most of the time. Visiting colleges in the area and hiking the Watkins Glen water falls, it was nice coming back to a clean spacious homestead we called home for a few days. We even took a tour of the Historic Rose Hill Mansion which is also in the front yard, which we every night watched the sunset. We will definitely be booking this again for another time and for longer next time! We didn’t want to leave and neither did the dog!!!

Great location and cottage

We spent two weeks in the cottage. It was perfect location for us. We could walk and run the trails to the lake everyday along with visiting breweries and wineries. The cottage is exactly as described. The only pleasant surprise is the fact it is the only cottage on the mansion property.

We had a wonderful stay at Rose Hill Cottage! Perfect location to visit surrounding lakes! The cottage is adorable! Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils, pots & pans, etc. We had trouble getting connected to the Wi-Fi. We called the number listed for help, they were awesome. Highly recommend Rose Hill Cottage!

Great location and a beautiful property

Exceptionally clean three BR. Only 1 bath. Kitchen has everything you need. It is on the grounds of historic Rose Hill Mansion. It a direct view of the lake from the house itself but easy stroll to some tables on the big property to enjoy wine and cheese and watch the sunset. Very convenient to amazing parks in Geneva. Many good restaurants around and a great grocery store (Wegmans).

Memorial Day Weekend

This property is just okay. It does match the pictures exactly and is plenty sufficient if you need somewhere to stay but there isn’t anything overwhelmingly special about it. I found it to be a little dirty with a lot or dead bugs (and alive) everywhere. I counted at least 5 spiders inside and lots of webs. We didn’t have towels, the welcome bag, or dog bag upon arrival and had to call twice. I don’t know that I’d stay here again.

Great location. Perfect house for a couple or small family. I wasn’t sure about staying in a home that was on the grounds of the Rose Hill Mansion, but it was totally normal as we pretty much had our own driveway/parking and it was perfect
