Year-Round Renovated Lakefront Cottage & Pet Friendly!

Welcome to our completely renovated cottage with 80 feet of lake front that is open year round! Our cottage has so much to offer. Whether you are coming for a romantic get away, a fishing trip or a family vacation, this cottage is your answer! Situated in the quaint town of Mayville in Whitney Bay, this area is known for its abundant fishing, one of the best fishing areas on the lake.

Our cottage has 2 first floor full bedrooms and a fully furnished second floor loft! The master bedroom is on the first floor & has a queen bed (sleeps 2) and the second bedroom is also on the first floor & has 2 sets of bunk beds (sleeps 4) . The beauty here, is our cottage has the potential to sleep 3 additional people upstairs in the loft (no door) with 3 beds. The loft is a very functional room that sleep's additional guest's. So, the cottage sleeps up to 9!

There is a fully functional kitchen and a dinner table that seats 6. A beautiful screened in porch with wicker furniture and an additional dinner table that seats 4 with a picture perfect view of the lake. In addition, there is a deck with a nice seating arrangement and a gas grill equipped with propane that allows for gatherings outside and enjoyment of the nice size yard that leads to a long dock (seasonal). While enjoying the large yard, don’t forget to bring some wood with you and make yourself comfortable on the adirondack chairs that surround our fire ring situated lakeside.

Dogs welcome! If you would like to bring your dog with you, (2 dog max) please let us know what kind of dog(s) you have when making your reservation. We do charge a pet fee (per dog) due to the extra cleaning animals often require. If you are bringing your dog with you, we ask that you follow the rules so we can continue to allow our guest’s to bring their dog with them on vacation. Thank you in advance for your diligence!

You are welcome to tie your boat off on our private dock during your stay as well. (Mid to late May - mid to late October. The water depth is at least 4'-5' high around our dock, so docking your boat will not be a problem. Don’t have your own boat? Not to worry! There are many boat rental options around the lake. Additionally, there is also easy boat launch access just around the corner from our cottage at no charge.

PLEASE NOTE: Check with me the first 2 weeks of May and the first 2 weeks of October if your stay is dependent on the dock being available. The “bookend” months are variable since the installation of our dock is weather dependent. We can’t guarantee that the dock will be in during these months so please check with me prior to making your reservation. Thank you!

We are only 10 minutes from the cute town of Mayville which has almost anything you would need. A 10 minute drive (5 minute boat ride) to Bemus Point and only a few minutes drive to the Chautauqua Institute. There is little you will be missing during your stay! Enjoy a quiet vacation in a clean and totally updated lakefront cottage with all of the modern amenities!

House was clean, water was bad, horrible smell. Food from last occupancy left in fridge. Some of the lights were out, maybe bulbs needed replacing. House is in need of two bathrooms, when you have 5 or more people you definitely need 2 bathrooms. We had 8 people in our party at the time of booking this was the only available house to accommodate us.

Very clean. Lots of kitchen pots, pans, utensils. The only thing needed was a cupboard to put a few groceries in. We had to keep everything out on the counter. But there was enough counter space to do that. WiFi access was easy. Lots of clean towels. Everything was just as the photos showed. We loved the screen room.

Quiet and relaxing quiet and relaxing ,quiet, wildlife

They seem to have a lot of basic stuff you would have at home. If you like quiet and to relax this is the place... There's a few issues,but nothing that would stop me from rebooking. Rustic wood cottage. Maybe next time I'll rent a boat .We enjoy our stay. Caught a lot of fish, but you have to work for them. The down under thing didn't work so well. Take wooden bulbers with you and a few boxes of nightcrawler s. Find some hooks with the little shiny thing and red beads on them. I caught at least 60 or 70 fish . Enjoy YOUR STAY.

Rainy day getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed the combination of lake and creek views, and privacy of the property. It was fun to watch the evening swims from the nearby beaver dam, and listen to the daily arguments among the geese and cormorants. Off-site amenities were few during the off-season, which was not unexpected, but good to keep in mind when planning your visit.

This is a cozy little house with a beautiful feel. It made my family feel comfortable. It has great accessibility to the lake with a dock not far from the boat launch for fishing.

Quaint

The accommodations were lovely. Quiet, peaceful. Really enjoyed the fire pit as we did not even use the grill. Cooked over a nice wood fire. The only I wouldn’t even call it an issue was that being in our 60s we had a hard time figuring out how to work the microwave and stove settings. A little quick guide would have been helpful. We managed though. Had a lovely stay. Our dog really enjoyed it too! Chocolate lab !

Serenity for our getaway

We spent 4 nights at this lovely cottage over Labor Day. Every year we look for a base of operations while we visit family and this was ideal for us. Peaceful lake views, tastefully decorated with both a screened in porch and an outdoor deck. We made use of the fire pit each evening and were treated to Fireworks over the lake one evening.i would highly recommend to any family looking for a clean, comfortable, quiet lake setting.
