A Cottage on the Bay: Adorable Lakeside Cottage Near Geneva

Situated right on the lakeside, this small cottage has one of the best views of Glass Factory Bay.

Park in the circular drive, which is shared with the neighboring house and walks down the well manicured lawn to the stairway leading to the cottage and be greeted by lovely potted gardens and a spectacular array of reflected sunshine off the lake.

Open the door to the studio-style upper level with open kitchen, dining area, and bedroom. Enjoy the lake view from the picture window.

Down the spiral staircase is the second sleeping area with open bathroom partitioned off in the rear corner. Bathroom hosts a standup shower, utility sink and commode. Walk out onto the lakefront lawn through the downstairs door.

The deck is the gathering center for this small lakeside cottage. Sunbathe, BBQ on the gas grill, enjoy lakeside dining, play a game of cards, or watch the stars come out; this deck will accommodate it all.

Close to Seneca Lake Wineries, public country club golf courses, fantastic restaurants, or shopping at the Waterloo Premium Outlet.

Rent a boat to explore the lake or paddle the rowboat along the shore, either way you will enjoy the atmosphere at Glass Factory Bay!

Great location and overall experience
Everything at the property was as expected and we enjoyed the experience. Only small complaints were the number of bugs/mosquitos outside and the bed was a little soft for our liking. We loved the space and the view. Would recommend to anyone looking for a short getaway

Beautiful location
It was a very nice property for a couple to stay in! Right on the water, the bed had a gorgeous view of the lake. The downstairs beds I think are more for kids — they are in a basement with concrete brick walls. Kitchen was fully stocked, bathroom was nice… the only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because the Queen bed was definitely way too soft for our liking! And the downstairs wouldn’t be very nice for adult guests. Otherwise, wonderful for 2 people!

Great Location
This little gem on the lake is in an outstanding location to help add variety to your vacation. Easy travel to hiking in the hills on the south end of the lake or a quick run up to Lake Ontario. Geneva is a great town with outstanding dining, parks, and trails.

Floors were not very clean. Beds were terrible.
Lovely location and cute little cottage but the bed in the living space should be a good sofa bed so guests have some place to sit. Bed was horribly soft. Other amenities were great. Paddle boat outside large window was filled with dirty water and did not present a good view.

Great location!
If you are looking for a spot to explore the finger lakes region, this is a great spot. Easy access to the entire region and then you can come back to this clean quiet cottage and enjoy the gorgeous lake view from your deck. The gentle lapping waves will lull you to sleep at night. Owner was warm, friendly, and helpful with suggestions when asked. Bill & Lori - October 2020

Incredible view/respectful hosts!
Wow! The view/private dock are incredible! The place is updated and beautiful, has everything you can need. The upstairs area is absolutely breathtaking. Downstairs is basically like sleeping in a basement. There was what seemed to be small black cat hair all over the clean sheets, pillowcases and bathroom floor/sink when we arrived so it wasn’t the cleanest property on arrival. The house itself is not very private, you are on top of the hosts and their neighbors-however, the host home is extremely respectful of your privacy and giving you your space! We very much enjoyed our time and the area is wonderful- a stones throw from all Geneva has to offer, you’re basically sleeping on the lake, and easy access to a marina for boat rental and great wineries and Port’s restaurant! We would come back for a short stay again!

Amazing little cottage right on the lake
I stayed at this cottage with my parents, my husband, and my dog for Labor Day weekend. It was perfect for our trip. We had a wedding at Belhurst Castle, which is only 5 minutes from the property. The cottage is right on the lake, so we could jump in for a morning swim or take out the paddle boat. The deck was big and had gates to keep our dog contained, so we all could sit out there and enjoy the view and the breeze. I would highly recommend staying here.

This place is awesome! Right on the water. You get your own boat dock. The owner and his family were great! Full helpful info on sites to see, places to eat, and where the fish are hiding. We had a wonderful stay here!

Cute Cottage
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in the cottage. View is incredible, property is very nice. Bed was comfortable. We did have an issue with ants, black and sugar ants. There’s not a place to sit down and relax inside just the bed and kitchen table. We couldn’t get the stove top or oven to work. We just wanted to warm something up so wasn’t a big deal but if we planned on cooking a meal we couldn’t. Also, window air conditioner unit is very loud, woke me up everytime it turned on and off during the night. These issues were minor and we did enjoy our stay.
