About this property

Peaceful Hilltop Retreat Near Keuka Lake & Wine Trails

Relax & Unwind in the Heart of the Finger Lakes

Welcome to our cozy retreat in Penn Yan, NY, nestled on a quiet hill surrounded by apple orchards and rolling vineyards. While there's a peek of Keuka Lake through the trees, the real charm here is the peaceful setting-perfect for sipping coffee on the porch, unwinding after a day of exploring, or just soaking in the fresh country air.

We bought this home in fall 2024 and fully renovated the interior to create a comfortable and inviting space for guests. While the inside is completely updated, we're continuing to make improvements to the outdoor spaces. Our driveway is shared with the friendly business next door, but once you arrive, you'll feel tucked away in your own private retreat. We live just a few miles away, so if you need anything during your stay, we're always happy to help!

Explore & Enjoy

Penn Yan and the surrounding Finger Lakes region are full of things to see and do:

Wineries & Breweries – Some of the best spots nearby include Abandon Brewing Co., Climbing Bines, Vineyard View, and plenty of other great wineries surrounding the lakes
Downtown Penn Yan – A short drive away, you’ll find quaint shops, cozy cafés such as Amity Coffee, and great local restaurants.
Wedding Venues – If you’re here for a wedding, venues like Crispin Hill, Esperanza View, and Belhurst Castle are all close by.
Outdoor Adventures – Hike or bike the Keuka Outlet Trail, rent a kayak, head down to Watkins Glenn, or take a scenic drive around the lake.
Farm Markets & Orchards – Depending on the season, you can pick apples and grapes at the nearby Apple Barrel, shop for fresh produce, or grab homemade treats from local farm stands.

Whether you're here for a weekend of wine tasting, a wedding, or just a quiet getaway, our home is a great place to relax and recharge. We’d love to host you—book your stay and come enjoy the Finger Lakes!

We were in the area for a family wedding and should we ever come back we are definitely returning. Thank you for a wonderful experience Karl.

House was amazing decorated beautifully with tranquil colors. Basement space and deck added extra relaxation areas. Kitchen was fully equipped to enjoy a meal after a day of visiting local wineries/breweries. Beds were comfortable location is also perfect.... close enough to downtown area but located in a peaceful area with a favorite winery and brewery located 1 mile away. Cant wait to return!

This was the perfect home base for my husband and I and our adult children while we enjoyed our time at a local wedding right down the street. The place was spotless and Karl was very accommodating. We hope to return sometime for a longer stay.

The property offered all the basic necessities needed for visiting this area of the Finger Lakes region. The only advice to the owner is to provide a better selection of cookware. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this location to our friends.

Very peaceful location. It was a great home base for our stay to visit family. Loved sitting out on the deck. If you want a good workout, do a lap or 2 down to the main road and back up the hill. Hopefully we’ll be back on our next trip!

We would have loved a kettle and body wash and shampoo. Most the of the places we have stayed at always had toiletries provided so we were disappointed to see there wasn’t any. Apart from that we had a very comfortable stay.

Very cute and cozy home!

Check in was so simple and the homeowner, Karl, was very responsive. My family and I really enjoyed our time in this very cute and cozy home. We didn't use the deck area or the grill because of the rain but we wanted to. I would recommend this home to any family who plans to visit the area! Thank you, Karl, for a fantastic long weekend getaway!

clean, comfortable, fun

The homeowner was very responsive to any questions before our stay and told us exactly what to expect with check in, check out and how to leave the rental. The house is adorable, clean and had some fun games (loved the ping pong). We were close enough to wineries to enjoy them as well see some of the beautiful scenery around the lake. My only regret is that we didn't plan to stay longer.

Extremely comfortable stay! We were in the area for Keuka College’s Green & Gold weekend. This VRBO is in a great location; proximity to Penn Yan, near some of the best wineries/breweries/distilleries, and short drive to Keuka College. All the essentials and comforts of home were provided to help make our family time memorable. The space was spotless. All the “little things” were thought of, including light switch labels, and an easy to control central air and heating. We are looking forward to our next visit (already booked!). If you’re reading this review, save some dates for us!
