Cottage was clean and well appointed. Kitchen was very nice! Lake was 'viewable' but not really accessible. No direct lake access, however Indian Point Park just a couple blocks away offered unfettered access to the lake. Otherwise great location for biking, and access to Penn Yan village, farm stands, restaurants, bars, shopping, etc. My only wish is that there were some kind of 'fire' feature available like a chiminea on the porch or lawn, or even an indoor electric fire place that would have made the fall weekend a little more special. An updated Smart TV that allows direct streaming from a phone would also be preferred to an HDMI cable. Most people these days do not drag their laptop, or a bag of DVDS (ha!) for a quick 3 day trip. However, I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage for those who are looking for a quick getaway on the loveliest Keuka Lake.
