Description Description

Nestled in the hillside and surrounded by trees midway between Hammondsport and Penn Yan; The Ironwood is the perfect home for classic Keuka Lake travelers.  This traditional lake home is located on a quiet, residential road where neighbors are friendly and where your Finger Lakes getaway will be one to remember. 

Situated across the road from the lake front, Ironwood boasts a cozy kitchen, full bathroom and living room downstairs and 3 bedrooms upstairs.  Upon arriving, the natural driveway leads the way to a stone staircase.  The stone accents blend with the natural hill scape and naturistic setting.

Inside, the feel of a classic lake home bursts from wall-to-wall.  Brightly painted walls splash throughout the living area and the vintage décor bring the QKA Lake traveler home.  With stunning views surrounding the cottage in each room, it’s easy to enjoy a relaxing vacation.  A small eat in kitchen area is set perfectly in the corner near the door to the lakeside porch.  Eat in or enjoy game night at the table with friends and family.  The lakeside porch is likely to be your groups favorite space for dining and enjoying one another’s company.  Whether you’re sipping on your morning cup of coffee or you’re watching the sun set with a glass of wine, the relaxing feel of being surrounded by trees and watching the waves of cool Keuka Lake in the distance is unforgettable.

Upstairs you will find 3 cozy bedrooms each with its own charm. The first bedroom offers a full-size bed and two windows with a view. Located across the hall you will find a room with a full-size bed as well as a twin bed. The last bedroom at the end of the hallway features a king size bed for a good night’s sleep and a gorgeous morning view!

Located on favorable east side of Keuka Lake, The Ironwood is a perfect place for a casual walk or bike ride along the quiet lower lake roads without all of the traffic.  Wander down the trail that leads you to the beach with 13 stairs at the end. The 150 feet of private beach greets you with a large permanent dock. The shale beach is gradual and great for swimmers of all ages.  Don’t forget your water shoes!  Enjoy a sunset in the Adirondack chairs or have a campfire at the lakeside before retreating inside for the evening.

Midway between Penn Yan and Hammondsport a stay at Ironwood has you with ample Finger Lakes fun at your finger trips.  Local wineries like McGregor’s and Weiss Vineyards are just minutes away.  A trip into Hammondsport will have you touring boutique shops, having lunch at Burgers and Beers or dinner at The Union Block.  A trip north into Penn Yan will have you browsing the Windmill Farmers Market on a Saturday, enjoying a scoop of homemade ice cream from Seneca Farms or toasting a glass of wine at the Wine Bar on the Keuka Lake canal.  Ironwood is the perfect getaway for anyone coming home to the Finger Lakes!  Call and make your reservation today!

We had a wonderful time.  The home suited our needs.  Lovely porch and view.  Absolutely great dock area with kayaks and firepit.  Very well equipped and overall clean.  We would come back; thank you!

My time at Ironwood was relaxing and comfortable. Since I hit a rainy spell , I spent more time in the house and felt very at home. The lake views are beautiful and walking on the lower east lake road was pleasant. Many thanks for an enjoyable time.

We loved everything about the Ironwood! Its rustic charm, proximity to the lake, awesome dock, covered front porch with an amazing view of the lake, and surrounding hotspots made it the perfect vacation destination for our family. We only wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely return to this gem on Keuka Lake!

The Ironwood
We had two relaxing vacations at The Ironwood in 2020. The cozy cottage is surrounded by trees, which offers privacy in a peaceful, natural setting. We liked the vintage decor and rustic ambiance, yet were pleased to find that the whole place is very well equipped. We enjoyed swimming off the dock everyday, riding bikes on the quiet road, and we took a few trips to nearby attractions. We also enjoyed watching all the hummingbirds from the front porch, which overlooks beautiful Keuka Lake. We can't wait to return!
