About this property

Recently Renovated 3 BR (Jewel) in the Heart of Finger Lakes

We are Vrbo Premier Host and our cabins are located on Italy Hill, in the heart of the Finger Lakes, in Yates County NY. Italy Hill is the 33rd highest peak in NYS.

We are an easy 20 minute drive from Keuka and Canandaigua lakes which have multiple boat launches and stores for renting water toys. We are close to many good restaurants and to shopping.

There are also 3000 acres of state land and parks within minutes for the outdoors-man/woman and for the serious hiker to explore. Our recently renovated two story cabin is situated on 1.8 acres with all amenities provided for a stress free vacation.

Enjoy your coffee in the morning with deer, turkey and a number of other wildlife species right off one of the cabins' three porches. Enjoy a nice bon fire while taking in the unbelievable beauty of the areas night sky.

The cabin has two BRs upstairs with queen size beds and a downstairs 3rd BR has a trundle bed with two twin size mattress. The full bathroom has plenty of room for the morning rush with pine accents throughout.

The living room has a large screen TV with Roku stick. Both upstairs BRs have a TV with local stations. There is also fiber optic WiFi. So please come stay with us and enjoy our beautiful countryside and what the area has to offer.

There’s just too much to do, be it hiking, fishing, wineries, antique shopping, you name it. Most cell phones will work at the cabin, depending on your provider and the weather but if you need a signal, one typically can get it on the road or a short distance down it.

The cabins’ driveway can comfortably hold two or three cars or more if you don’t mind backing out of the driveway. Trucks with boats in tow are fine too. We have a grill for cooking steaks on the porch after a hard day enjoying the finger lakes or guest can cook inside with a fully functional kitchen with stove, refrigerator and microwave.

Branchport and Keuka Lake State Park is a 10 minute drive, as is Prattsburgh. Naples is 15 minutes away and Penn Yan about 20. All three have Dollar and general stores for buying groceries. Penn Yan is the biggest town, with a cinema and more choices than the other area towns. However, one can’t beat Joseph’s fruit stand in Naples for freshly cooked pies, cakes, and bread as well as awesome fruits and veggies, as well as Lynnie Lou’s ice cream but Penn Yan has buckwheat pan cakes, Indian Pines Farm market and two ice cream stores, Seneca Farms and Macs Dairy bar! Oh the choices!

Please check out our other cabins, "The Green, Green Grass of Home", Vrbo I.D. no. 9457683. This cabin is also newly renovated and can hold up to 6 guests. Our couples retreat is the "Fox in the Henhouse", Vrbo property I.D. no. 7689244ha. Its 100% newly remodeled and sleeps up to 5 guests.

Nice Stay for the Eclipse
My friends and I stayed here for a few nights as a base to see the eclipse. The cabin had the essentials and is located in a nice, quiet location. Internet is extremely fast and the water was fine once it had been run a little while (as the host mentions). Be aware that the second queen is not in a bedroom - no door/privacy from downstairs and is walk-through to the main bedroom. Kitchen is also not stocked for any meaningful cooking.

About the host

Hosted by Gary and Dawn Socola

Host profile image
My grandparents came to the US in 1903 and 1908. After living in Illinois, and Alabama, they moved to New York and purchased our original family farm in November of 1934. My father grew up there and over the years, his family struggled to pay the high property taxes that NY is known for. In order to continue to pay taxes, they would split off a small portion of the farm, build a cabin on it and sell it in order to keep the remainder of the farm going.

I grew up down the road on a farm my parents purchased after being married on February 18th, 1950. Six children were raised on this farm and my brother still lives there to day.

I didn't want the life of a farmer. I love farming and farmers but I saw the long days, 7 days a week my parents worked to support a family of 8. I wanted to travel and see different parts of the US and the world. I headed off to college in Rochester NY and went to school full time and worked a full time night job to pay my tuition. On weekends, I had a 2nd job and working both allowed me to graduate debt free and with a background/work ethic to be an engineer who worked on CAT Scans/MRI's until a work accident left me permanently partially disabled. I was out of work 18 months & told I'd never work again but coming from tough Polish stock, that wasn't an option. So I joined a start up company in Rochester and was employee number 5. We took this company to being in the Rochester Top 100 private companies and also grew it to over 100 employees before it was sold to a public company in 2012.

That's the year (2012) that my lovely wife & I started our own company in Rochester. We began with 12 employees and have 30 now. Getting closer to retirement & not always trusting the stock market, we decided to diversify and invest in the area I grew up. The first thing we did was purchase the cabins which were part of the original family farm and we are now renovating these so you too can enjoy the history and beauty of this area.

Why they chose this property

We are Vrbo Premier Host and our cabins are located on Italy Hill, in the heart of the Finger Lakes, in Yates County NY. Italy Hill is the 33rd highest peak in NYS.

Dawn and I set up our cabins as if we were going to stay there ourselves. We've traveled all over the US, Canada, Europe and South Africa and in those travels we've noted both the good and bad of staying outside your own home. We've taken this experience and tried to make your stay as uneventful as possible (concerning the cabin) so you could remember all of the fun things you did on your vacation.

What makes this property unique

We are 20 minutes from two of the most gorgeous lakes in the whole United States. There are so many outdoor related things to do, that I can't even begin to mention them. Throw in the wineries, distilleries, restaurants, shopping and natural beauty of the area and the Finger Lakes can't be beat.

Why stay in a hotel when you can have a complete house for a few dollars more. Dawn and I grew up in families that had very little. In fact, we didn't take family vacations other than going to FL to see my grand parents, so we wanted to keep the pricing of our cabins low enough that a working man or woman could bring their family and enjoy the area without breaking the bank.
