About this house rental
Come enjoy Canandaigua Lake! Our wide porches, brand new dock, fire pits, beach, large yard and quiet area compliment this comfortable circa 1938 waterfront cottage.
This cottage offers 1800 square feet of living space, a wide porch including one screened-in porch for lounging/dining/sleeping space for youth, a large family room, a large sun room, five cozy bedrooms with plenty of storage space, two bathrooms, an updated kitchen, a full-sized washer and dryer and wood burning fireplace.
Water
Cottage water comes from a shore well with UV light and is fine for bathing and showering but in the summer time there is NO supply of potable water available so we leave several gallons of drinking water for guests.
Waterfront
The waterfront area has many different spaces to relax and enjoy including: two outdoor picnic tables for open-air meals and card games, eight large Adirondack chairs at the beach, seven Adirondack chairs on the upper level and six additional lounge chairs, beach and cottage level fire pits and a charcoal grill on the upper level.
Located on a quiet, country road near the hamlet of Vine Valley, the DeMarco cottage offers the calm pace and stunning vistas for which the Finger Lakes are famous. Yet the delightful towns of Canandaigua and Naples are within a 20 minute drive, offering restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, wineries and unique local shops.
Fun-filled lake days, breathtaking sunsets, calm breezes and water sounds - The DeMarco cottage offers your family a great place to make memories that will last a lifetime!
Guest Access
Guests with have access to the entire home, beach and outdoor areas. Extra amenities include: kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, toys, rope swing and all household necessities.
The Neighborhood
Friendly neighbors, a quiet street, nearby villages and local farmers - the Finger Lakes, and particularly our section of it in Vine Valley, Middlesex, are known for world class wineries, locally made beers and is one of New York State's most successful and diverse agricultural areas. From food, to wine, to shopping, to solitude, the Finger Lakes truly offers something special for everyone!
Other Things to Note
If you would like to explore beyond the lake, there are many fun areas within an hour's drive.

We had a wonderfully relaxing week-long stay in the DeMarcos' lakefront cottage. The hosts provided everything we needed and more. The kitchen was well-equipped, and there were plenty of pillows and blankets for the comfortable beds. We particularly enjoyed the small watercraft that were available to us on their private waterfront, as well as sunning on the swimming raft and dock. The lake water was warm and inviting! The porch was our favorite for coffee, meals, reading and family games, but there were several other outdoor areas we also enjoyed including the fire circle and hammock. The wifi was great for our 3 adult kids who worked throughout the week. We appreciated the communication with our hosts prior to our stay to answer questions, and they quickly responded to questions we had during our stay. We are grateful for a great family vacation! Thank you, DeMarcos!

A beautiful location and well landscaped waterfront. Beach, dock, fireplaces, boat lift and everything you need to enjoy the lake and outdoors. A classic older lake cottage that is quaint. Some areas need updates/remodeling work that would be nice- but the outdoor area is where you want to spend your time and the outdoors and lakefront at this historic cottage couldn’t be nicer -or more beautiful.

This house was a charming, comfortable, amazingly quiet & casual home, with a well equipped kitchen, lots of books and toys, absolutely perfect for families with little ones. We all loved the spacious and beautiful outdoor space, especially the wrap around porch and the fire pit surrounded by comfy chairs. It was a perfect location for boating and the scenery was beautiful! The owner was very nice and quickly responded to any questions or minor problems we had.

This was the perfect setting for the week we spent on Lake Canandaigua. Despite its age, the house was clean and inviting, and offered four bedrooms upstairs for our kids and a master on the first floor. There was lots of usable space - I don't think any room went unused for our party of 6, and yet it felt spacious. From the screened porch where we enjoyed the evening breeze to the breakfast/dining room with expansive views over the lake, to the family room where we played board and card games nightly, to the fully stocked kitchen - there was nothing we could think of that we didn't have. The property itself was perfect - on a quiet part of the lake with plenty of grass where the kids could play outside, and at the widest part of the lake which was convenient for tubing. Having access to the dock and being able to rent a boat for the week from the Smith Bros and store it at the house was a highlight of our visit - most of the rental companies require you to return the boat nightly. The owners were gracious, helpful and everything you could ask for, providing us with additional items to accomodate the boat and checking in regularly to ensure we had all we needed and were enjoying our stay. We'd welcome the chance to return (perhaps for a longer stay in future summers!) and appreciate all Peter and Debbie do to make this an amazing experience. Thanks so much! Ron & Laura, Henry, Will, Addie & Alex Erdman
