5 Bedroom Cottage in Canandaigua
Close to CMAC performing arts. Across the lake from Canandaigua Yacht Club.
This cottage is one of the original Canandaigua fishing cottage on the lake. It is a basic cottage with a fantastic view. Has a dock, with a 3600 pound hoist, and 50' lake frontage. Sleeps seven, plus has a futon on the porch and a sleeper couch in the main-room. There is a full bathroom upstairs and a half bath in the barn.
The barn in not included in the rental. But it has a fully functional toilet in a room just inside the back door that is very convenient. The lawn between the house and barn is a pleasant place to sit and let the world go by. Garbage service is included in the rental and is collected once a week. Adequate parking is provided just off the beach road beyond the barn on the back yard.
No TV, but has WiFi.
Enjoy the lake instead. It is on the east side and the sunsets are gorgeous. The dining room table seats eight. The living room has a very efficient gas heater for the "cool" days. The kitchen has a gas stove, plenty of pots and pans, plenty of dishes and glasses, standard electric fridge and freezer, dishwasher and microwave, and lots of light. Cuisinart ice cream maker. X
Plenty of chairs, and picnic table on the lawn. Large back lot for bocce games.
This cottage is in a particularly nice location, privately situated, but with easy access to amenities, golf, wineries, and local attractions. Ice cream shops are a short boat ride away, as are good restaurants.
This house sits on Nibawauka Beach, serviced by a private road coming off East Lake Road that leads to a private access road for all the cottages on the beach.
It is a quiet neighborhood with families with active children. This is not a "party house". It is a lovely spot on a lovely lake. If you're interested in late night action you should look elsewhere.
The lake itself is about 15 miles long, varies from three miles wide to just over one mile wide at the cottage, and largely is 300-450 feet deep. It was cut by glaciers that covered the area 12,000 years ago, and most of the streams feeding it flow from south to north. It has dozens of types of fish in it and myriad animals live on its slopes.
We have a sturdy boat hoist that is listed to handle up to 3600 pounds. It is electrically powered to lift and lower. Fishing is productive at times right off the end of the dock, and certainly better if one takes a boat out into the lake. Rock bass, sunfish, perch, "punkin seeds", etc. are commonly caught and released. Pickerel, large- and small-mouth bass, three species of trout, and catfish are also caught in the lake.
Outside, lakeside lawn has a large picnic table with benches, another smaller round table with four separate chairs, and several very comfortable old sitting chairs. Shade is provided by a maple on one side and three shade trees on the other, but the middle of the lawn is open and sunny.
The lake is down a flight of concrete steps to a concrete dock and an extended aluminum dock that leads out about fifty feet. The water at the end of that dock is only about 5 feet deep. An adult can walk out about 100' into the lake and still have his/her head above water. Several times a day several families of ducks paddle calmly past, occasionally we see a mink.
The Canandaigua Yacht Club is directly across from the cottage, and the weekend races are delightful to watch. City-run fireworks are easily seen from the lawn. The sun and moon set calmly over the hills on the other side of the lake over a mile away.
The nearest grocery store, Wegmans, about a mile and a half north on Rt 5&20. Walmart's, Lowe's, and the movie theater are all about a mile from the cottage on 5&20 to the east.
Canandaigua itself has numerous restaurants of all types. The town's Main Street is wide, with flowers in the business area, and has lovely stately homes in the residential area to the north.
Finger Lakes Community College is a mile north on East Lake Road and hosts musical programs in its CMAC outdoor pavilion nearly every week during the summer. Tennis courts are there.
Kershaw Park is at the north end of the lake, about a mile by boat from the cottage, and has a large sand beach with wadable water out nearly 200 yards.
We hope you never need it, but Canandaigua's excellent Thompson Memorial Hospital, associated with the University of Rochester Medical Center, is only a short distance away from us. Ambulance service is efficient.
Finger Lakes is a special area of New York. A resort area for going-on two hundred years. Explore it and you'll see why. Waterfalls, specialty shops, horse racing, antique shops, Indian Villages, Morman church historical sites, AAA baseball teams, Corning Glass Museum, Niagara Falls, Lake Ontario.
Come, enjoy, relax, and love the lake. We have for decades and still do.
