About this property
Cozy cottage in the Heart of the Finger Lakes with hot tub - dog friendly
Small cottage in the quaint village of Interlaken with modern country finishes, located on a beautiful babbling brook in the heart of the Finger Lakes. If you stay in we have a hot tub and if you want to go out, it's a ten minute drive to both the Seneca and Cayuga wine trails!
Location:
The Interlaken Cottage is merely 10 minutes from both the Seneca and Cayuga wine trails, so you don't have to choose! It is located in a quaint village with a convenience store in walking distance. What makes the cottage most special is the precious brook running through the property.
The House:
The house is quiet and comfortable. It is furnished to be cozy, yet modern, with every detail thought through.
We love sharing our vacation home with family, so we have plenty of places to sleep. There are two queen beds upstairs, the couch folds out to a full sized bed, a queen sized air mattress, and a fun futon for a child.
Dog Friendly:
The best part about the Finger Lakes is that almost every winery is dog-friendly! So you get to bring your dog just about everywhere. There are dog bowls provided. We don't currently have a fence on the property. Sorry, no cats.
The Creek:
The creek is very charming and not very deep in most parts. However, it's quite rocky, so we urge you to be very cautious with children and pets - never leave them alone in or near the creek. It's also very dangerous after a rainfall.
A note on cleaning fees:
* We charge a cleaning fee. This fee offsets our costs for turning over the cottage in between stays. We do not enter the house once you have checked in (unless there is an emergency or you ask us to).
* Charging this fee allows us to be flexible in stay length. Having a one-time fee incentivizes longer stays, and makes a one-night stay worth the extra effort!
* We only have ONE chore - we ask that you take the trash to the curb if you're staying there on trash day! Otherwise NO CHORES - no need to vacuum, do laundry, strip beds. We provide light cleaning materials in case there's a spill.

About the host
Hosted by Sara Abernethy

I bought this property on a whim - I was vacationing in the Finger Lakes for the second time and realized how much I loved the area. I put an offer in on Brookside on the last day of my long weekend. Since that time, I've purchased several more properties in the Finger Lakes, and during the pandemic, I accelerated my long-term plan and actually moved to the Finger Lakes permanently. Brookside holds a special place in my heart, but with Mill Creek Cabins, New Park Event Venue, and one more coming soon...I truly do have roots here now.
Why they chose this property
This property was falling apart when a local investor decided to bring it back to life. He spent three years painstakingly re-building every part of this old 1800s house by hand, and the result is outstanding. Not only was the home delivered to us in perfect condition, but there was love and care put into every decision. The babbling brook only adds to the romance of this cottage.
