About this property

Lake Moraine Cottage · Welcome Wine · 5 min Colgate

Important: Lake Moraine 2026-2028



The New York State Canal Corporation is rehabilitating the Madison Reservoir Dam. The lake is drawn down 10 feet through 2028 to allow construction. The lake is still a lake — kayaking, swimming, fishing, and paddleboarding all continue, and there is no construction noise at the cottage.



What this means for your stay: The shoreline directly behind the cottage is exposed mud at low water. Lake activities for our guests run from the Colgate Boathouse — a short walk down Frank Road, or a 1-minute drive if you'd rather bring your gear by car. There's a dedicated parking lot. Kayaks, paddleboards, and life vests are stored there, available self-serve. Your view from the deck is still the lake — just lower than usual.

THE COTTAGE



Sleeps 6 in two bedrooms (queen + queen) plus a pull-out sofa in the living room. One full bath. Smart TVs in each bedroom and the living room. Fully-equipped modern kitchen with dining room, outdoor grill, washer/dryer, fast Wi-Fi, dedicated workspace.



THE WELCOME



Bed linens, extra pillows and blankets, complimentary coffee, tea, and a bottle of wine on arrival. Beach and bath towels, shampoo, soap. Pack-and-play available on request. Board games for rainy afternoons.



THE OUTDOORS



Lake-facing deck and fire pit (wood provided). Coffee in the morning, sunsets in the evening, fire pit at night. Lake Moraine is calm enough for beginners and big enough to actually paddle a few miles — kayaks, longboards, and life vests are at the boathouse, ready when you are.



VISITING COLGATE? Family Weekend, Reunion, Homecoming, and Commencement sell out fast. Book early.
