Fall in love with Keuka at Keuka Kara

Enjoy Keuka Lake on a 149 foot natural shale private beach, large dock for fishing or lakeside entertaining, sleeps up to 18 and has plenty of parking. Keuka Kara has been on the banks of Keuka Lake for 157 years. She is like no other cottage.

This bright, fully renovated home sits directly on the beach, and features plenty of 7 bedrooms, 6 baths, and a gorgeous view of Keuka Lake.

The main entryway leads into a 3,700 square foot open floor plan. On the main floor are the fully furnished kitchen, the bright and spacious living room, and 2 master bedrooms each connected to a full bathroom. Both bedrooms have balconies to capture the serenity of Keuka Lake.

Upstairs, additional sleeping space is available in 4 bedrooms: one with 2 double beds, one with 2 sets of bunk beds ( perfect for youngsters), and 2 master suites (one king and one queen). The two master suite bedrooms have access to the massive deck with gorgeous views of the lake.

We provide linens and towels.

On the road level there is a great room with a modern fully stocked kitchen, dining area overlooking the lake and sitting area by large screen TV.

Outside, 4 decks await, offering a beautiful view of Keuka Lake, as well as two large grills and a variety of Adirondack, and dining seating.

The property sits directly on a 149 foot stretch of private beach, complete with 2 fire pits, ( one wood and one propane) and a permanent dock with additional bench seating.

Keuka Kara has cable TV, WiFi, and is conveniently located a short drive from everything Keuka Lake has to offer.

Great House & Host/Manager!
This house was perfect for our getaway bachelorette party for my best friend and 10 other girls. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the common area was also large enough for us to spend most of our time there eating, drinking, playing games, and just spending time together (when we were not out tasting all of the wine, of course!). There was a glitch in the VRBO site stating that the property check out time was noon in two places but then on the day of check out, I saw there was another place that said 10:00 a.m. Sue was very understanding and allowed us to stay until noon, and any other questions I had during my stay were responded to within minutes. 10/10 - Highly recommend.

Mid-Week Finger Lakes Visit
We loved the house! It had everything we needed and then some. The rooms were open and allowed for our group of 12 to relax, dine or just hangout on one of the many decks. The decor was pleasantly not cluttered. The house is located between Hammondsport and Penn Yan; lots of wineries near by. We had a great dinner at the Mansion and lunch at the Weiney. Do t miss Watkins Glen.

Golf Divas weekend
Keuka Kara is the perfect house for large groups! The most spectacular view of Keuka Lake from a lovely large great room! The kitchen has everything you could possibly want or need for entertaining. The bedding was top notch and comfortable! Sue provided items that are not usually provided in many rentals, such as soaps, toiletries, linens and many pantry products for cooking and storage. My group has been coming to the Finger Lakes for many years and I have to say that this property is the perfect property for us! The location is fantastic, the rooms are large and furnished tastefully, individual heating and cooling in each bedroom, and loads of other amenities. I do however agree with what a previous reviewer mentioned in their review, that the lack of a dresser or closet or anything to hang clothes on in two of the bedrooms was very inconvenient. Also, a mirror was missing in one of the bathrooms and not replaced. Any questions we had were responded to promptly. All in all, we had a great three day stay with the exception of Mother Nature was not in the mood for sunshine! We will definitely rent this wonderful property again and hope for great weather next year to go along with this great house! Thank you Sue.

Relaxing stay
Our extended family of 12 enjoyed a relaxing week on Keuka Lake. The house was right on the lake, and we enjoyed kayaking and paddle boating, as well as the fire pit and corn hole. There are numerous wineries to visit nearby, as well as excellent ice cream. The house was fairly well stocked and came with some unexpected amenities such as trash bags and laundry detergent. Our only complaints were that the kitchen could use a large cutting board and some bedrooms had neither a dresser nor a closet, so we lived out of a suitcase for the week. Overall a great stay!
