Welcome to Cayuga Belle, a grand lakeside estate perfectly designed for families and friends to relax, reconnect, and celebrate life on Cayuga Lake. Located along the peaceful western shoreline, this spacious home is ideal for family reunions, friend gatherings, or anyone craving a truly memorable Finger Lakes getaway.
From the moment you step inside, the home's charm and craftsmanship shine through. Gleaming hardwood floors, exposed beams, and knotty pine accents fill the space with warmth and character. A formal dining room greets you at the entranceâperfect for sharing big family dinnersâwhile a beautiful double-sided stone fireplace connects the dining area and cozy den.
With two full kitchens, Cayuga Belle makes it easy to cook for a crowd. Each kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, plenty of counter space, and all the cookware you'll need. Whether you're preparing a big brunch or enjoying a casual dinner, mealtime here feels like part of the fun.
Upstairs, you'll find beautifully furnished bedrooms designed for comfort and relaxation. Every room offers a peaceful viewâeither of the shimmering lake or the estate's lush gardensâmaking it easy to unwind after a day outdoors.
Beyond the main house, two guest cottages provide extra space and versatility. One is a traditional guest home complete with a kitchenette and sleeping area, while the other serves as a fun hangout spot featuring a bar, shuffleboard, and a giant Connect Four game.
Outside, the property opens up to a stunning lakefront paradise. Manicured lawns and stone pathways lead down to 300 feet of Cayuga Lake shoreline. Spend the day swimming, fishing, or paddling in the calm waters, then gather by the lakeside firepit for an evening under the stars. There's plenty of space for lawn games, outdoor dining, and quiet moments soaking in the views.
Cayuga Belle's location is perfect for exploring the best of the Finger Lakes. You're just minutes from the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, Cayuga Lake State Park, and the boutiques and restaurants of Seneca Falls. Spend a day hiking Taughannock or Buttermilk Falls, visit nearby wineries, or relax with a meal at local favorites like Wolffy's Grill and Marina or The Gould Hotel.
Whether you're sipping coffee at sunrise, sharing wine by the fire, or laughing late into the night with loved ones, Cayuga Belle is more than a vacation homeâit's a place to make lifelong memories on Cayuga Lake.
