About this house rental

Welcome to the Ellis-Haff Cottage, a peaceful year-round retreat tucked into a quiet cove on the southwest shore of Canandaigua Lake. With stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys, this spacious four-bedroom, three-bath lake house offers direct, level access to the water and the kind of calm, private setting guests enjoy returning to year after year.

Our cottage is warm and inviting, with large, light-filled rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and thoughtful touches throughout, including a baby grand piano. Bedrooms are generously sized and three full bathrooms ensure comfort and ease for everyone. Outside, the level lake frontage leads to a wide dock with ample seating and a moorings. A kayak is provided for guests to explore the cove and beyond, and you're welcome to bring your own boat for full days out on the water.

Our guests love the peaceful setting and easy access to water activities like swimming, tubing, and paddling. Whether you're sipping coffee on the dock, enjoying a sunset dinner on the deck, or simply floating in the quiet of the cove, the cottage offers pure relaxation. In the fall, the lake is framed by brilliant foliage, and in winter, Bristol Mountain, just 10 minutes away, offers skiing and snowboarding. For hikers and bikers, Ontario County Park is nearby with great mountain biking trails and panoramic views of the Finger Lakes region.

Located just a short drive from downtown Canandaigua, you'll have easy access to local wineries, farmers markets, restaurants, and seasonal events. Whether you're here to unwind, explore, or reconnect with loved ones, our cottage is your perfect retreat in the Finger Lakes.


Special note for summer guests: air conditioning is available in the bedrooms only.

We had a fantastic multi-generational stay at this lakefront home! The house was perfect for our group, which included grandparents, parents, and young kids. It was spacious, clean, and very comfortable for everyone. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the essentials we needed to prepare meals throughout the weekend. We also really appreciated how kid-friendly the home was. Highly recommend for families looking for a relaxing and well-equipped place to stay!

This spacious cottage home has five bedrooms, four of which have room AC. Any kitchen utensil imaginable is provided. The shaded patio with a ceiling fan allows comfortable outdoor dining. The owner is responsive to any questions. We used the kayaks and canoe provided daily. We loved our 3 weeks on the lake!

Perfect for a multi-generation family stay. Lots of places for the whole family to gather, and lots of room to spread out so we weren't on top of each other. Loved that the cottage is at water level so you just walk down a couple of steps from the deck and into the water. We used the canoe and kayak daily. More than enough life jackets for everyone (we did bring our own for the infant). We have already booked for next year!!
