An acre of enchanted sanctuary nestled in forest and perched above a creek. A few miles away from Seneca Lake (boating, swimming) and the Finger Lakes National Forest (hiking, swimming). Many local wineries and breweries on the Seneca Wine Trail, as well as farmstands featuring local produce. Popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy cycling, birdwatching, fishing, foraging...Private cozy cabin is tucked away in a wooded area on a quiet one-acre residential property occupied by a single professional who works from home. Bring your own linens/bedding for air mattress provided in sleeping loft (need to be comfortable negotiating step ladder) and towels for outdoor shower (environmentally-friendly products only please). Compost toilet (with lovely views!) steps away from cabin. Kitchen includes small fridge and small vintage propane stove.

Seneca Lake rustic woodsy cabin
10/10 Can’t wait to stay again!
We absolutely loved our stay at J’s cabin! We plan to make this our go-to getaway a few times a year. When we arrived at the cabin, we walked up onto a sweet porch with a table & chairs to enjoy a drink and the view. We walked inside to a cozy kitchen, perfect for 2. The wood stove was great for staying cozy all afternoon and evening. There is an outdoor shower and stove, we didn’t need to use because we were only there one night, but next time we look forward to staying for a couple of nights in the future. The outhouse was awesome, we really appreciate the composting toilet and steps being taken to reduce septic system waste. The property is beyond beautiful and serene. We felt so rejuvenated after staying here! Cannot wait for the next weekend getaway at J’s!

Amazing Cottage
J’s cottage is above and beyond if you are seeking a true rustic getaway. Lack of service keeps you off the screens and forces you to set yourself in the moment. The wood fire stove, cottage sauna, and outdoor shower were big highlights! We also really enjoyed sleeping in the loft and J was an amazing host. Would highly recommend this for any stay near Watkins Glen!

Seneca Lake rustic woodsy cabin
This is truly a magical cabin the woods - the pictures don’t do it justice! So much craftsmanship went into the site, we really admired all of the details. It was easily accessible (didn’t have to carry our things very far), but felt very private from the road and the main house. Communication with the host was great, and the instructions left in the cabin were very clear. My partner is pretty tall, so he did have to mind his head going up and down the loft ladder, but we were prepared for that. I’m big on hot showers, and there was plenty of hot water for the tub (set on the screened-in porch, which was awesome for enjoying and outdoor shower sans bugs). The location was perfect for us, 7-15 minutes away from the places we came to visit. Our only regret is only spending one night! We would happily stay again.

The cutest little cabin, felt like sleeping in a treehouse in the woods. The cabin had the basics of everything you need, and the host was very attentive. We especially liked the shower in the screened in porch, a true glamping experience.
