About This Home

Showings begin on Friday 8/14/2026 at noon. Welcome to your very own private retreat near the south end of Otisco Lake, set on approximately 8 acres of picturesque landscape featuring two natural waterfalls, a tranquil stream, and a footbridge leading to open green space with vibrant gardens. This meticulously maintained three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath log home blends rustic charm with key recent upgrades, including exterior log staining completed two years ago and a roof that is only three years old. Enjoy peaceful year-round views from the extensive screened-in wrap-around porch, or take advantage of the prime location situated just minutes from the Otisco Lake boat launch, nearby ski destinations, and the Darling Hill Observatory. Perfectly balance secluded oasis living with convenient access to outdoor adventure in this exceptional Finger Lakes property.
