About this property
Wolffy's House on the Hill: Charming Cayuga Lake Home with Sunrise Views!
Welcome to Wolffy's House on the Hill, a charming three-bedroom, pet-friendly getaway overlooking beautiful Cayuga Lake! Conveniently located between Ithaca and Seneca Falls, this inviting retreat puts you close to wineries, waterfalls, local dining, and plenty of Finger Lakes adventures.
Inside, the bright and comfortable main level is designed for easy vacation living. The full kitchen features cheerful blue cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and everything you need for meals at home. Gather around the dining table with lake views, relax in the cozy living room after a day of exploring, or head outside to the deck for fresh air and beautiful views of Cayuga Lake.
Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms provide restful spaces for families or small groups. Outside, the spacious yard offers plenty of room for lawn games, picnics, and soaking up the sunshine.
Ready for some lake time? The home's approximately 75 feet of private Cayuga Lake frontage is located just across the road from the house. Spend your days relaxing by the water, fishing from the dock, launching a kayak, or enjoying the lakeside deck. Please note that entry into and out of the lake is from the dock or breakwall rather than by wading in from the shoreline.
One of the home's unique conveniences is having Wolffy's Bar & Grill located just across the road, next to the private lakefront. A lakeside meal, cold drink, and lively atmosphere are only a short walk away! Because the restaurant and marina are nearby, guests should expect the possibility of additional boat traffic, activity, and noise around the waterfront, especially during busy summer days and evenings.
When you're ready to explore, you'll be perfectly positioned for some of the best the Finger Lakes has to offer. Sip your way along the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, explore Taughannock Falls or Buttermilk Falls State Park, visit Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, or spend the day discovering Ithaca and Seneca Falls.
Whether your getaway is all about lake days, wine tasting, waterfall adventures, or simply spending time together, Wolffy's House on the Hill offers a comfortable and convenient home base for experiencing Cayuga Lake and the Finger Lakes!

Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy
The house itself is OK - however just know that there are minimal electrical outlets so plugging in and charging things will be an absolute nightmare- the AC consists of two small units, one upstairs, one downstairs and no AC in the bedrooms- Missing a lot of amenities like sugar for coffee, hand soap etc.,I booked this property specifically because I thought it was Lakefront and from the photos it looks like you can wade right into the lake- well that is absolutely not the case -you have to cross a road to get to the lake - which youn cannot just walk into - it is about three foot up with blocks - the lake is about 3-4ft deep by the pier HOWEVER you are right next-door to a very busy very loud restaurantwit a very busy boat dock to the very right of you – boats are very frequently, pulling in and out of that restaurant directly in front of your pier - there’s absolutely no way if you have children that you would feel safe allowing your children to swim here- so families BEWARE -

House was perfect for what we needed, beautiful views from the porch, well equipped kitchen for all the cooking we did. The bar near the dock was very busy but closed at 9 anyways so no problem with noise. The dock was in good shape and we had to worries docking our boat there.

While the view of the lake was great, we were not very pleased with the overall state of the house. First, there was someone’s food left out on the kitchen table when we checked in. I contacted the property manager about this, they said they would look into it and never got back to me. I also wish it was mentioned in the listing that there is limited paper towels, toilet paper, and soap. With 5 people staying in the house we ran out fairly quickly and wish we had known to bring our own. We also encountered many bugs while at the house. There were ants in the sink, and multiple stink bugs. The front porch also seemed to have a bee infestation and was covered in cobwebs. The beds were comfortable but given everything else we dealt with, we didn’t feel comfortable that the linens were cleaned between guests. Other than that, the house was fine. The views are very nice from the house but that’s really the only redeeming feature.

Thank you again for your feedback. We hope you will consider staying with us again so we can provide you with a better experience in the future.
Planned our trip around our son-in-laws race. Loved the front porch and the music from Wolfie’s restaurant. Only hick-up was blowing a fuse when we used the microwave and the air conditioner was on. The property manager responded right away and sent someone out to make sure everything was ok

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the front porch and the vibrant atmosphere from Wolfie's restaurant. We apologize for the minor inconvenience with the fuse, but we're glad our property manager was quick to respond and resolve the issue. Your feedback is valuable, and we hope you had a great time despite the hick-up. We look forward to hosting you again soon!
This house is as advertised--the one issue is that not only is it directly next to a (sometimes) rowdy bar, but its lawn bleeds into the parking lot. Very loud delivery trucks woke us up one morning, and oud patrons kept us up one evening. It's also a bit small for the nine people it advertises. Only one bathroom is a bit brutal. But the house is lovely and access to the lake is great.

Hi Amber,
Thank you for taking the time to rate your stay! We appreciate your honest feedback, and we will use it to improve the experience for future guests at this rental. Please come and stay with us again soon!
The house is very clean and up to date. It’s is very comfortable and easy to relax in and enjoy the amenities. We liked the location of the house- beautiful view of Lake Cayuga and the ease of driving to various spots of interest like parks, waterfalls, wineries, and restaurants.
The only drawback is the proximity to the restaurant. The listing says the restaurant is is a short walk and the food is good, both of which are true. The house shares a long property line with restaurant parking and is very close to the restaurant. It is fine on weeknights when the restaurant xloses early, but on Saturday night restaurant patrons stayed on premises talking loudly until around 1am Sunday morning. The rental agreement stated that this area has quiet hours starting at 10 pm. The hours were anything but quiet for the restaurant patrons. This noise led to difficulty sleeping for several members of our family. We loved the house but would steer away from renting it on weekends due to the proximity to the restaurant.
Otherwise we had a very wonderful stay.

Paula, Thank you for your feedback. If you ever decide to stay in the Finger Lakes again we would be happy to help you find the perfect home for your vacation.
The house is clean, very well decorated. There were six adults and three children and we managed just fine even with one bathroom. The beds were comfortable, living room spacious and a porch with a fantastic view. Live music playing from a nearby restaurant. If you're looking for a big kitchen to cook for a big group you'll have a tough time. But with good planning you can make it work. I did.
My family was very impressed with the home all in all. The neighborhood was quiet most of the day. Seneca Falls area and Northeast College are close by.

We rented with a bunch of college friends for a wedding weekend. The house has a great location, amazing view and deck. The only annoying issue we had was that the power kept tripping and we had to go down and Flip the breaker sometimes 7 times a day. If you are going to advertise as a summer home and only have portable AC, you need to increase the voltage because we couldn’t even use the toaster without tripping it.
