About this house rental

Nestled in Cayuga Lake, this attractive house for $400 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. “Pura Vida” is Spanish for “pure life,” a philosophy that encourages the appreciation of life’s simple treasures. Start with the morning sun bathing the hills across the lake in golden color & watch the drama of a brief afternoon storm pass, leaving the air clean & fresh. Enjoy the haunting calls of the loons, the lake breezes & sounds of the waves against the sea wall. Laugh around the table, savoring a meal with loved ones. Relax by a bonfire & watch the stunning colors of sunset bleed into the deep sapphire of twilight as the stars start to twinkle. In the colder months, snuggle up by the cozy fireplace & relax to the view & sounds of the waves outside. Curl up in a comfortable bed and sink into slumber, ready for the next day's adventures. There's something kind of magical about the light, the breeze, & the sound of the water here. Pura vida! If your desired dates are already reserved on Pura Vida's calendar, or if you need another cottage for extended groups, you may want to take a look at Halcyon Cottage (VRBO #3089096), located right next door! Interior amenities: * Air conditioning for those hot days * Gas fireplace for the cool season * Roku Smart TV, Blu-Ray/DVD player, & small DVD library (use the TV Roku to access your accounts or bring other streaming access - there is no local cable service) * 2 Desks for remote working & WiFi with internet speeds sufficient for streaming or virtual meetings (Download Speed: 100Mbps, Upload Speed: 5 Mbps) * Standard major appliances, dishes/tableware/glassware * Other kitchen appliances: Microwave, toaster, blender, hand-mixer, waffle-maker * A variety of coffee-making methods available including drip, steeping, French press, and Moka pot. No paper filters needed, just bring your favorite grind! * Fresh, clean bed sheets bath towels with professional interior cleaning between each rental * Great selection of games Outdoor amenities: * Gorgeous outdoor dining on the deck (an unbeatable ambiance, better than any local restaurant!) * Beautiful sunset views & water sounds * Lakeshore firepit for small bonfires & roasting marshmallows * Great fishing right from the dock (bring your own gear) * Only 10 short steps to a small shale beach for gradual water entry & easy kayak launch * Weber propane barbecue * Two kid-sized sit-on-top kayaks (kids 22’ hull) please message us with your boat type so we can determine if it will fit safely in the hoist. Use of the boat hoist must be requested & agreed to by us >7 days prior to arrival or it will not be powered & available for use. Any guest wishing to use the hoist must be fully responsible for its safe use; on-site training is not available. Prior guests bringing boats have had very positive experiences with launch & storing trailers +/- boats at both the Long Point State Park launch (to the north) or nearby Don’s Marina launch facilities (to the south). Hoist access is a courtesy only; no refund will be provided in the event that the hoist is not available for any particular booking due to damage/malfunction/service delays. This is extremely unlikely, but should this happen, guests will need to store the boat on its trailer/return to rental facility and re-launch daily. ____ CANCELLATION POLICY: * Refund in full for any cancellation requested within 48 hours of website reservation (check in date >2 weeks away) or within 24 hours of reservation (check in date 7-14 days away) * Please note that our cancellation policies are date-specific and vary seasonally, with less flexibility in the very busy summer months. If you have concerns about the potential for last minute weather/illness impacting your travel, we do recommend looking into travel insurance ____ GRADUATIONS AND CORNELL REUNION EVENT BOOKINGS - The cottage is an easy drive for Ithaca events and a great place to relax away from the chaos & traffic! 3 night minimum. Full refunds in the event of ceremony cancellation.

We had very specific wants in a place: on the water, outdoor fire pit, near waterfall hikes, and hot tub. This listing stated that it had a whirlpool spa, but no suck think. We picked this out of 4 that had all we wanted but were very disappointed. A hot tub would have been great after hiking all day.

This property had everything you need for a relaxing vacation. The location was ideal with lots of water toys to enjoy your stay. I’m not sure which was better enjoying the view by the fireplace or having dinner outside while watching the sunsets. Love to stay again.

The best finger lakes cottage we’ve rented. Quiet, private, well appointed, well maintained, super responsive property manager. Will absolutely be back.

The peaceful feeling you get when sitting in the adirondack chairs on the dock is amazing. The sunsets are beautiful. The cottage was perfect for us. We had 4 ladies and came to visit vineyards on Cayuga and Seneca Lakes. We were on the opposite side of Cayuga from most of the vineyards but the drive around to the other side was nice. I loved the tiny town of King Ferry and went to the King Ferry Cornerstore every day.

We spent wonderful 4 days at Pura Vida Cottage. Property and location are terrific and exactly as described on Vrbo page. Home has everything you may need and more. We loved cozy fireplace after a day of hiking. Would love to return next year. Paulina

Nice quiet neighbhood and you're so close to the water (actually part of the home is built over the water) you feel like you're on a houseboat. Michele's attention to detail and everything being so well described, labeled makes everything so easy to find - and use. A quiet, peaceful getaway.
