Wakiva Esperanza: Beautiful Lakefront and Dog-friendly Home

This Keuka Lake classic, 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage features one of the best views on Keuka Lake and is located directly below a scenic overlook. Wakiva Esperanza sits on a quiet, dead-end road within a short walk to Keuka Lake State Park and its many trails.

For the nature lover, trees surround the cottage and offer shade on those hot summer days. Keep your eye out for birds, herons, ducks, and more! Friendly little chipmunks and squirrels may scamper about to say hello.

Inside, the open floor plan provides space for family to enjoy some time together. Its rustic charm will be the perfect retreat from your everyday life. For your scenic viewing pleasure, there is a balcony off the master bedroom (second floor), plus a deck off the living area (first floor) with picnic table, BBQ, and room to put your feet up!

The shared lakefront features good swimming and a lake bottom that is rocky; with a small shale beach for wading in. Two shared docks are available for your use. A picnic table, shade tree, campfire circle, and plenty of non-motorized watercraft are available. Don't waste any time! Book your vacation getaway to Wakiva Esperanza today!

Had a great stay at Wakiva Esperanza with my family including my elderly mother. Was nice to have a bedroom and shower on first floor for her. Overall very clean—only a few minor shower spots. Everything worked!! Very beautiful setting. Lake site stunning. Dog friendly though we didn’t bring our dogs and wouldn’t have known that other dogs had been there. Would definitely go back!

Great girls weekend

Property was just as stated. Roomy and had everything we needed. Beautiful beach and view. Access to kayaks, which was fantastic! Property manager was easily accessible, very friendly, and helpful with anything we needed! Would absolutely recommend. House is also very central to several small towns and wineries which was a big plus.

Wonderful views from the deck. Enjoyed coffee each morning from the deck. Well stocked kitchen and hot tub was nice after a day of exploring. The neighboring Aussie was a bonus! Would recommend!
