Cheerful and Charming 4 BR/3BA Cottage by the Lake

About this space
Welcome to our cozy 4 bedroom 3 bath cottage nestled in scenic Aurora. Enjoy the magical experience of being in a quaint Upstate NY town while still being near all major locations. A quick drive to Ithaca, Cornell/IC, and most wineries! Easy lake access plus ample space makes this a perfect family getaway. Aurora is a small town, so the whole place is one big Neighborhood. With great restaurants, scenic walks, and a lake in your backyard, this is one neighborhood you'll never want to leave!
The space
The home has a large gravel driveway with parking for 3-4 cars. Outside you will find a spacious yard and deck for soaking up the summer sun or taking in the fall views. Upon parking in the driveway, guests will enter the home through the front door on the side deck. We use a self check-in process, so no waiting around on keys! After entering the home, you are greeted by a bright, open kitchen perfect for cooking. Bar stool seating and a dining area gives plenty of seating options for the whole group with a TV to entertain those not cooking. A half bath is located just off the kitchen, as is laundry.

Continuing through, a spacious yet cozy den with two plush couches is off the living room. A TV is included for nights in. Off of the den is a charming bedroom with piano and queen bed. A screened in porch is also off of the den for the outdoor lovers.

Moving upstairs, a bright and spacious primary bedroom greets guests at the top. Ample storage, an attached bathroom, plentiful natural light, and a TV are just a few things to expect! The attached primary bath gives both standing shower or bath options via an Americana style tub. A towel warmer is also available for those brisk NY nights.

Down the hall guests will find two more bedrooms: one with another queen bed and one with two twin beds. Each bedroom offers the same airy, filled with natural light feeling as the primary. A desk is included in the queen bedroom for those who need to get work done as well! A third bathroom is located by the two bedrooms for ease of access.

The outdoor areas give ample space for enjoying the scenery and outdoors. A firepit in the yard is a perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring the area. Lake access is also available across the road for swimming or fishing!
Guest access
All spaces are set up for guests, but please note that the detached barn is off limits. Parking is available for around 3 cars. The large yard and back deck are also available!
