Great get away

The Graoe Escape was exactly what we were looking for. It is camping without the tent! The view was wonderful, woke up and went to sleep with sounds of nature. Even in the rain it was a perfect getaway. Dave was quick to respond when we had a question and went above and beyond for our stay! Would recommend and stay again.

Awesome place to stay. The cabin has everything you could possibly need plus some extras you wouldn't have thought about. There are a few pans/utensils for cooking. There is a butane powered portable stove top, a propane grill, and the fire pit for cooking (all fuels are provided). Power banks are provided so you can plug in your phones when needed. Dry firewood is provided with a smokeless fire pit. There is a composting toilet and a neat little shower building. Great view of Keuka Lake and super close to a ton of wineries. 25 minutes to Watkins Glen State Park. There are a few nice little cafes in Hammondsport which is 2 minutes away. Honestly this is a true finger lakes glamping experience. I will definitely try to book this place the next time we are in the area.

Christmas getaway cabin weekend

My girlfriend and I had a great glamping experience hosted by Dave and his wife. Not only was Dave incredibly attentive during our stay but also gave us recommendations on where to explore around the town and hikes near by. The cabin was equipped with cooking material and wood for the fire (which we really enioyed). For anyone looking for sometime to disconnect and enjoy with a loved one - We recommend this cabin for you!

About the host

Hosted by Dave Hopkins

Host profile image
My wife, JoAnn and I grew up in this area. We recently moved back and built a new home on this 8 acre property. Keuka Lake has many memories for our 4 grown children. They do not live near, but come back to vacation here every year. Our hope is that you will enjoy this beautiful land as much as they do.

Why they chose this property

Glamping Excellence! Private lake view cabin nestled in the woods located in wine country. The convenience of Hammondsport located 1/2 mile away is priceless. Grocery Store, Gas, Restaurants, Gift Shops, Music in the Park, Public Beach Access, Finger Lakes Hiking Trails, Museums, Cycling Country and Watkins Glen State Park nearby.

What makes this property unique

We nestled the cabin in the woods for complete privacy. It is NOT located on a heavily trafficked road. Bully Hill Winery is one mile up the road. They offer wine tasting and have a lovely restaurant overlooking the lake. Nature surrounds this little cabin with bird song and lake view.
