About this property

East Seneca Lake Cottage Nestled Amongst the Trees, Near Watkins Glen

Explore all the Finger Lakes has to offer at Etal! Latin meaning "and others," Etal is located just minutes from Watkins Glen, and a short drive to Ithaca. This lovely quintessential cabin in the woods features fantastic Seneca Lake views and level lakefront. Offering accommodations for a group of 9, Etal offers three bedrooms, a loft and bunk house. Inside, beautiful knotty pine hugs both the walls and ceilings throughout Etal. The entry level layout flows freely from one room to the next with large windows and sliding glass doors accenting the lake views from the distance. Once in the kitchen, tall white custom cabinets hold all the cooking and baking ware your group of travelers could need for preparing your favorite meals. Granite countertops and stone backsplash add a special decorative touch to an already well-designed room. Being a seasonal home, dinning is done alfresco on the lakeside deck. A small table top inside acts as a breakfast bistro, or game table for two. The living room provides a cozy retreat any time of day. The Cozy blue sofas welcome you with comfortable seating for a cup of coffee to start your day, or a glass of Finger Lakes wine to end the night with. Completing the entry level, you'll find one of the three private bedrooms and the full bath. The lower level features the third private bedroom and half bath. All beds have ** NEW MATTRESSES**. House water comes from the Lake and is filtered. While it is safe to bathe with, please bring your own beverages. Outside, a covered patio off the lower level hosts a hot tub and outside shower. The nearby bunk house offers additional living space and trundle style sleeping. The stairway to the lakefront provides a landing midway down to stop and take in the panoramic view. Once at the lakefront, 80'of useable natural level frontage is available and enjoyable for guests of all ages to get in and out of the water. The large dock offers plenty of space for sun bathing, fishing, or just visiting with friends and family. Located right in the heart of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, Etal has several fine wineries nearby such as Catherine Valley Winery, Silver Springs, J.R. Dill Winery and Chateau LaFayette Reneau. Enjoy a day trip into Watkins Glen and visit Watkins Glen International for a race or one of their many events throughout the summer. Hike a Watkins Glen State Park and enjoy dinner out on Captain Bill's Cruise Boat, or at the Seneca Harbor Station. You'll experience endless summer fun when you choose Etal as your Finger Lakes vacation destination! Call and book your reservation today!

Relaxing Stay But Could Have Used Cleaning
The property was perfectly situated on Seneca Lake and access to the house was uncomplicated. While we enjoyed our time there, the bathroom, and in particular the shower, seemed as if it hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. Obvious cleaning tasks such as removing the last inhabitant's ball of hair from the drain weren't done. The outdoor shower ended up more preferable. While I fully understand this cabin is smack in the middle of the woods, there were a sizeable amount of well-established and old cobwebs in every room and a few sightings of cockroaches in the morning in the kitchen. Outside of these problems that seem easily remedied for someone else in the future, we loved the property.
