The Spotted Sandpiper is located in the woods with frontage on Cayuga Lake and bugs love the woods and water! They're savvy at finding their ways indoors (these are cabins after all). If the bugs are ever "bugging" you, we're always happy to help.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The cabin also includes a coffee maker.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time decompressing at this cabin. Great wifi and a smartTV made our teens super happy, and my husband and I enjoyed the dock and double kayak. The cabin itself is tiny (there is just enough room to walk around 2 sides of the bed), but has 2 bedrooms with double beds, a living room with a daybed sofa with a trundle, a small dining table (2 chairs and access to 2 sides of the table), a stovetop (no oven), a mini fridge with a freezer, a sizeable fancy microwave, and a tiny bathroom with shower (3'x5'?). The cooking supplies for the stovetop are pretty limited (1 small pan with lid, 2 small skillets), but I think that's because the assumption is that most people will grill out on the super nice gas grill (with propane and loads of extra propane) or charcoal grill or firepit. The porch has a nice glass table with 4 chairs, a sofa, and a coffee table. And you even have your own extra dining space with a picnic table on the mulched area in front of the cabin with the grills and firepit.
Cooling: There were 2 fans that worked well and a window air conditioner (with remote) embedded in the wall near the ceiling.
Heating: They had an electric fireplace and 2 electric space heaters.
Beds: The double beds were comfortable with smooth sheets and a warm comforter. The kids and I used our own pillows, but my husband was happy with the bed pillows.
Common Space Amenities: The common space amenities were a real gem! They had games (giant connect 4, cornhole, and spikeball) and balls to play with. A nice green space with sun for soaking in sunshine and running around. A dock with rock beach and a shallow rocky space for little kids to play in. There was a tiny bit of zero entry beach space (like maybe 4'). They had double kayaks, single kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, and floats with all the appropriate life jackets and gear that you could easily access without reservation.
Toiletries, Dishsoap, and Water: Hot water was plentiful. They use chlorinated water, which my kids didn't like the taste of, but they provided unlimited gallons of bottled water. They also provided loads of extra propane for the gas grill. In the cabin they provided: 2 tiny bottles of dishsoap (our family of 4 used only 1/3 of a bottle for the 4 days we were there), a dish towel, a dishcloth, a packaged dish sponge, 2 rolls of paper towels, disinfecting wipes, 3 boxes of facial tissues, 2 small bars of soap, shampoo and conditioner.
Our stay was very nice in this rustic cabin. It is situated on the best location on the property with a nice view of the lake and not too near neighbors. There is a very nice front porch and outside sitting area with a fire pit and propane grill. While it is supposed to sleep 5, it comfortable slept the 2 of us. 5 might be tight, hopefully some are children. There is a short walk to the lake where there are some kayaks and SUP to use as well as a dock to sit with a picnic table and chairs to sit on. It was just what I expected from looking at the pictures.
Love the dock, beach, and having SUPs to use. It rained most of the time we were there, but we were cozy in our cabin. It was quiet and relaxing after a stressful time in our lives.
