Description Description

Welcome to Wolffy’s House on the Hill, a charming three-bedroom, pet-friendly getaway overlooking beautiful Cayuga Lake! Conveniently located between Ithaca and Seneca Falls, this inviting retreat puts you close to wineries, waterfalls, local dining, and plenty of Finger Lakes adventures.

Inside, the bright and comfortable main level is designed for easy vacation living. The full kitchen features cheerful blue cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and everything you need for meals at home. Gather around the dining table with lake views, relax in the cozy living room after a day of exploring, or head outside to the deck for fresh air and beautiful views of Cayuga Lake.

Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms provide restful spaces for families or small groups. Outside, the spacious yard offers plenty of room for lawn games, picnics, and soaking up the sunshine.

Ready for some lake time? The home’s approximately 75 feet of private Cayuga Lake frontage is located just across the road from the house. Spend your days relaxing by the water, fishing from the dock, launching a kayak, or enjoying the lakeside deck. Please note that entry into and out of the lake is from the dock or breakwall rather than by wading in from the shoreline.

One of the home’s unique conveniences is having Wolffy’s Bar & Grill located just across the road, next to the private lakefront. A lakeside meal, cold drink, and lively atmosphere are only a short walk away! Because the restaurant and marina are nearby, guests should expect the possibility of additional boat traffic, activity, and noise around the waterfront, especially during busy summer days and evenings.

When you’re ready to explore, you’ll be perfectly positioned for some of the best the Finger Lakes has to offer. Sip your way along the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, explore Taughannock Falls or Buttermilk Falls State Park, visit Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, or spend the day discovering Ithaca and Seneca Falls.

Whether your getaway is all about lake days, wine tasting, waterfall adventures, or simply spending time together, Wolffy’s House on the Hill offers a comfortable and convenient home base for experiencing Cayuga Lake and the Finger Lakes!

It was fun listening to the music from Wolffy’s
We stayed with our daughter and her family. We especially enjoyed the pier and outside seating nearby. Our grandsons had so much fun fishing from the pier. Our only problems were with basic supplies, but overall we all really enjoyed our stay here and are already planning a return trip for next summer.

Great stay beautiful views
House was perfect for what we needed, beautiful views from the porch, well equipped kitchen for all the cooking we did. The bar near the dock was very busy but closed at 9 anyways so no problem with noise. The dock was in good shape and we hadn't to worry docking our boat there.

This house provided everything we needed for a girls’ weekend on the lake. The location and private dock are absolutely perfect and it is very convenient to have Wolffy’s right across the street for food. Having only one bathroom was a little tough, but we made it work. Also, the upstairs fuse blew a few times with only the portable air conditioner, the fan, and a phone charger plugged in, but we were able to find the breaker in the basement and fix the issue. Just things to be aware of. Overall we were highly satisfied with our stay.

We really like the front view!
House was comfy with six adults. The location is directly beside Wolffy's restaurant, and within 10-15 minutes of convenient stores, and small towns.

Great House, Not so Great View

This house is as advertised--the one issue is that not only is it directly next to a (sometimes) rowdy bar, but its lawn bleeds into the parking lot. Very loud delivery trucks woke us up one morning, and oud patrons kept us up one evening. It's also a bit small for the nine people it advertises. Only one bathroom is a bit brutal. But the house is lovely and access to the lake is great.

1/2 Ironman Geneva

Planned our trip around our son-in-laws race. Loved the front porch and the music from Wolfie’s restaurant. Only hick-up was blowing a fuse when we used the microwave and the air conditioner was on. The property manager responded right away and sent someone out to make sure everything was ok

Great location

We rented with a bunch of college friends for a wedding weekend. The house has a great location, amazing view and deck. The only annoying issue we had was that the power kept tripping and we had to go down and Flip the breaker sometimes 7 times a day. If you are going to advertise as a summer home and only have portable AC, you need to increase the voltage because we couldn’t even use the toaster without tripping it.

A very nice home

The house is clean, very well decorated. There were six adults and three children and we managed just fine even with one bathroom. The beds were comfortable, living room spacious and a porch with a fantastic view. Live music playing from a nearby restaurant. If you're looking for a big kitchen to cook for a big group you'll have a tough time. But with good planning you can make it work. I did. My family was very impressed with the home all in all. The neighborhood was quiet most of the day. Seneca Falls area and Northeast College are close by.
