Premium lakeside retreat

Blue Heron Hideaway is your newly built, 4BR, 3BA lakefront haven in Lansing, NY on Cayuga Lake. Sleep eight in two king and two queen rooms. Savor panoramic water views from the open-concept living area or deck. Relax in the rec room with a 75” TV, ping pong, and more. Launch kayaks from your private shore, then gather by the fire pit at sunset. Minutes from Ithaca’s dining, wineries, and adventures!

Blue Heron Hideaway is a modern 3,200-square-foot retreat where every detail invites you to unwind and explore. Step into the open-concept main level, where a fully equipped kitchen overlooks the pristine expanse of Cayuga Lake. As you chop, stir, or simply sip coffee, let the tranquil water views become your backdrop. Gather indoors at the dining table, framed by west-facing windows that capture every flicker of sunset, or head to the covered deck to dine al fresco, breathing in the fresh lake air.

You’ll find comfort and convenience all on this main floor: a king bedroom and two queen rooms, plus two stylishly appointed full bathrooms. Downstairs, the lower level extends the fun. Another king bedroom and bathroom provide privacy and cozy relaxation, while the spacious rec room sets the stage for friendly competitions, whether you’re playing ping pong, darts, or foosball—or settling in for a movie marathon on the 75-inch TV. Board games and a video game console complete this entertainment hub.

Outside, the lake life truly shines. Follow the steps down to your private dock, where you can slip into the water for a refreshing swim or launch the provided kayaks for a peaceful float. Multiple lounging and dining spots await, from the fire pit ringed by Adirondack chairs to the plush loungers on the stone patio, perfect for sunbathing. Upstairs, the elevated deck provides an idyllic perch to savor your morning coffee or toast the day’s end with a glass of local wine.

Despite its secluded feel, Blue Heron Hideaway is just a short drive from downtown Ithaca’s restaurants, grocery stores, and the storied campuses of Cornell University and Ithaca College. Ready to explore the Finger Lakes region? You’re mere minutes from celebrated wineries, breweries, and cideries. Whether you come for the water adventures, the scenic serenity, or the flavors of the region, this lakeside escape offers the best of both worlds—an immersive getaway and the comforts of a well-connected home. Welcome to your perfect blend of tranquility and adventure.
