Dalton Lakeside Cottage is the perfect place for a peaceful getaway with family, friends and good neighbors. Located on a quiet private road, you will pass through a narrow but short underpass that is not an issue for a full size pickup or SUV. The cottage features 3 bedrooms, 1 bath with a kitchen and living room. We prefer you to use the screened windows to keep cool, but there is an option for A/C if needed. We have a RokuTV that allows guests to sign into their streaming services. High speed internet is also available provided by Spectrum. You will be spending most of your days outside grilling on the covered Front deck while your kids playing in the secured back yard or enjoying your time relaxing on Dalton Landing watching the sunrise and sunset as you enjoy your morning coffee or your evening glass of wine. Relax by the outdoor fire-pit at night. There is a charming and historic train that runs by the house. The train has no set schedule but does go slow and the conductor will even blow the whistle for you if you wave to them. There is also a long dock for your convenience, whether you choose to fish from the dock, rent a boat at Roy's Marina or bring your own boat. The cottage is a short drive from a local farmers market called "The Windmill" and about 30 min drive from the waterloo shopping outlets. This is a wonderful cottage that is perfect for that quiet weekend we all need with family and friends. If this sounds like the place for you, please submit your booking request to lock in your dates. Ask about boat docking and trailer storage. We do not supply a washer & dryer but list of laundromats will be available at the cottage. There are also 2 security cameras located on each corner of the front of the house, these are used for security purposes only, there are no other cameras in any guest areas of the cottage.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.

We had a wonderful time at Dalton Lakeside. The property was clean and in a quiet location. The view over Lake Seneca was amazing. Communication with the host was timely; he was friendly and helpful when a smoke detector went off inadvertently. The property was dog friendly with covers on the sofas. At first we were concerned about getting our Suburban into the property, but once we maneuvered the underpass and a tree in the road, we did OK on subsequent drives in and out. A wonderful vacation property.

We had such a wonderful stay at this cabin on Seneca Lake! The booking process was smooth and easy, and the owner was fantastic with communication from start to finish. The property itself was well-maintained, and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The covered deck was one of our favorite spots, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the lake views no matter the weather. The dock was also excellent, making it easy to enjoy time by the water. The location truly couldn’t be better, with convenient access to everything while still feeling peaceful and private.We also loved how dog-friendly the property was,our pup felt right at home! Overall, it was the perfect getaway, and we can’t wait to come back.

Dalton Cottage is a peaceful location right on Seneca Lake. It had a fulled fenced in yard so our dogs could play (completely secure even for little dogs) and even had a doggy door they loved to use! Our dogs loved it. The deck was amazing to have coffee on every morning and the water was so clear!

We enjoyed the peacefulness of the cottage. It was on a quiet street with no one around. The house was fully equipped. The convenience of the fenced in yard and doggy door was awesome for our pups. My husband enjoyed fishing off the dock even though he only caught one catfish. Unfortunately, there was no beach access to the water. You can't tell that from the pictures. Our dogs like to swim. The cottage is convenient to great wineries. We enjoyed hiking each morning with the dogs. The only downside was that the shower was very small. Overall, we had a great time.

Enjoyed the cottage and time with the family. Grilled steaks, hotdogs and hamburgs on the gas grill provided on the back deck. Fenced in back yard worked out well with the dogs. Fishing started out slow with high winds and rain but the last day was gorgeous and we ended up catching 4 lakers.

Family Weekend
Located at the end of a dirt road along the lake, this cozy home leaves little to be desired. It’s off the beaten path and provides seclusion as well close proximity to the wide variety of wineries and towns in the area. The host was wonderful; calling before our arrival to ensure there were no questions, and informing us of a temporary power outage the day we were to arrive. The home was well kept, fully stocked, and clean upon our arrival. The Finger Lakes is one of my favorite vacation destinations and I would happily stay at this location again.

This property was a perfect get away for me, my mom, and my dog! Beds were very comfortable and the fenced in yard was great to take my dog outside. Great view of the lake from inside and outside. Deck was nice and big. Wineries close by to do tastings. Geneva and Watkins Glen also close. Highly recommend Spotted Duck for ice cream.
