On a quiet dead-end street, Blackbird Cottage is a perfect cottage for a couple or a group of up to four looking to relax on Seneca Lake. The main cottage offers 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the second bedroom with a Double bed. The bathroom has heated floors and a walk in shower. You can cook in the fully outfitted kitchen, enjoy a meal at the dining table or sit in the living room and take in the lake view through the large window overlooking the patio and the lake. The outdoor space has a great patio for dining and enjoying the view of the lake below. There is also a secondary deck close to the water and a firepit on the shore that you can use for a cozy evening fire. Our cabana building, on the water, is not currently available for guest use. The cottage ceilings are fairly low due to the fact it was originally built in the 1950's. We are also on a quiet dead-end street with close neighbors along the lake who also enjoy the relaxing nature of the area. Whether visiting the area for our wonderful wineries, getaway, romantic weekend, or fishing our world-famous lake trout, you will love Blackbird Cottage on Seneca Lake!

We did some hiking to see some local waterfalls along the Keuka Outlet trail. As non wine drinkers we visited some cool breweries around Seneca and Penn Yan. We had dinner at Beef and Brew and Parker’s Grille which were both great. We spent Saturday at The Windmill Farm and Craft market. It was great watching the sunrise over Seneca Lake sitting in the dock ##### Michelle K. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tara G. 17 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Girls trip, peaceful, had everything we needed. We had a great time. The house is great for a small getaway and has everything you need. This was my second stay on the property. The lake itself was pretty disappointing this time as it was filled with grass and there were a TON (at least five, two of which were massive) water snakes living near the dock/shore line that made themselves known. Otherwise the property is clean, well maintained, and charming. ##### Tara G. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bruce H. 31 Aug 2024 Liked: Check-in #### The Good the Bad and the Ugly The Good: The inside of the cottage was clean. The bathroom was roomy. The beds and furniture were comfortable. We loved the Adirondack rocking bench at the end of the dock. We had coffee there every morning. Very peaceful. The canoe was also nice to have. There was very little boat traffic in the area, so it was very quiet. Some suggestions: Towel racks in the bathroom, a salad bowl, beach towels, Plastic cups (The rules stated that no glass containers are allowed near the water, but there are no plastic cups.) Clean flotation tube and mattress. (The flotation tube and mattress were stored with the canoe and were covered in dirt and mold.) A cork screw that works. The Bad: We tried to go for a swim, however the grass was so thick in the 3 feet of water that one could not swim. My arms would literally become entangled in the weeds, whick extended from the bottom of the lake to the water's surface. The water is so shallow that I had to wade out to about 100 feet from shore before I was able to swim freely. The canoe allowed us to paddle out to the local public beach. During our paddle we noted that no other cottage had a significant weed problem. The manager said there was nothing that one could do about it and that it was a microclimate issue. However, a neighbor said that the grass simply needs to be physically romoved. The tables and chairs by the bungalo need cleaning, and the picnic table needs leveling. Bees are entering a hive via a hole on the side of house. ##### Bruce H.

We found it a peaceful location at the end of a long road in a quiet village. Our goal for this stay was to see amazing waterfalls and eat a lot of ice cream. Recommend the nearby Keuka outlet trail for a pleasant hike. Also don’t skip visiting the Spotted Duck Creamery. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dccf9ea5-9893-457d-b71d-2ded4e909c8a-1756038572478.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Sunrise from the dock bench](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c274a77b-c82e-4118-88d1-a80b7d8dc2dd-1756038571999.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![The trailhead is just on the other side of the village and great for a hike or trail running](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cd46901b-8869-4efa-93e0-b5a3cd60e398-1756038573653.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Keuka Outlet trailhead](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/edaa50ec-9e77-45d1-8b30-15eae4094f9d-1756038573951.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Richard C.

Perfect little cottage on the water. Great to have coffee outside in the AM or have a bonfire on the water at night. Many wineries around to go to during the day and hiking. Would stay here again! ##### Kristyn N.

We spent our time there during the week. The lake was very quiet and peaceful. One recommendation would be to add two more chairs down by the dock, near the fire pit. ##### Christine W. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda S. 2 Aug 2018 #### Relaxing, quaint, quiet! We celebrated a kids-free weekend away, and it was everything I’d hoped for: peace and quiet, calming lake views, and a serene setting for reading. We took the canoe out for a bit but mostly enjoyed sitting on the dock! Wonderful! ##### Amanda S.

Great area near all the wineries and local activities . Awesome back area of the house and fire pit . The canoe is broken though only has one seat . Super clean house which was much appreciated Would highly recommend ##### Erica K.
