About this property

Cottage Retreat in the Heart of the Finger Lakes

  • Welcome to the FLX! We've rented our home to more than 300 guests on another platform since 2017 (4.9 rating), and have finally made the switch to VRBO. Our home is located in the rural center of the eastern branch of the Seneca Lake wine & food trail and only 7 miles from the Cayuga Lake wine trail. We provide a centrally-located, quiet, peaceful place to relax in-between your day trips to the local attractions. Make yourself at home, either inside on one of the massage chairs or outside in our 1 acre yard with outdoor seating, a charcoal grill, and a fire pit. Our Ovid cottage boasts 2 inviting bedrooms with 1 queen bed and 1 full bed. The cozy living room features a comfy futon for extra relaxation. Guests can unwind in the soothing bathtub after a day of exploring. With amenities like AC, WiFi, and a washer/dryer, your stay will be convenient and comfortable.
