Experience the beauty and serenity of the Finger Lakes at Sweet Water, a delightful lakefront bungalow on the shores of Cayuga Lake. Perfectly located on a private road, this 3-bedroom pet-friendly vacation home offers stunning lake views, modern updates, and an open, inviting layout that makes it ideal for families, friends, or groups seeking a memorable getaway. With Seneca Falls and Ithaca just a short drive away, Sweet Water provides both tranquility and easy access to the Finger Lakes region’s top attractions!
From the moment you arrive, the charm of Sweet Water is evident. A scenic driveway leads you to the property, where lake views greet you through the length of the home. Inside, a light-filled, open floor plan spans the main level. Newly updated vinyl-wood flooring flows throughout, adding warmth and style to the space. The crisp, galley-style kitchen features white cabinetry, ample counter space, and modern appliances—perfect for preparing breakfasts, snacks, or full meals. Consider visiting the Ithaca Farmers Market for fresh local produce to add a vibrant touch to your culinary creations.
Adjacent to the full kitchen, the dining area offers a comfortable spot for meals, while the covered lakeside porch provides the ideal setting for enjoying coffee with the sun rising over the water or savoring dinner while watching the sunset. The main level also includes a cozy den, a full bathroom with a standalone shower, and relaxing living spaces where family and friends can gather.
Upstairs, three thoughtfully decorated bedrooms await. Two of the bedrooms feature stunning lake views, bringing the beauty of the Finger Lakes inside. Calming neutral tones, bright white bedding, and cozy furnishings create an inviting retreat for every guest. A full bathroom and convenient laundry area complete the second floor, ensuring comfort and practicality throughout your stay.
The outdoor spaces at this Finger Lakes vacation rental are designed for relaxation and fun. With 92 feet of prime lake frontage, guests can enjoy swimming, sunbathing, or paddling in the provided kayaks. The covered porch is perfect for escaping the afternoon sun, while the patio with comfortable seating invites you to unwind and take in the sparkling lake views from the comfort of your hot tub. A firepit adds the perfect touch for evening gatherings, where you can roast marshmallows, share stories, and savor the peaceful lakeside ambiance.
This vacation home is also ideally situated for exploring the Finger Lakes region. Spend the day hiking Taughannock Falls, Buttermilk Falls, or exploring scenic trails nearby. Wine enthusiasts can visit local wineries along the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, such as Sheldrake Point Winery and Cayuga Ridge Winery. Go horseback riding near Seneca Lake, explore Keuka Lake via kayak or rented boat, or fish for trout in Canandaigua Lake. After a day of adventure, return to your private lakeside retreat and relax in comfort while the sun sets over the water.
With a combination of comfort, charm, and a prime location on Cayuga Lake, Sweet Water is the perfect Finger Lakes destination for those seeking a relaxing, memorable getaway. Book your stay today and create lasting memories with family and friends in this beautiful lakeside vacation home!
