There are five bedrooms at this property and one in on the first floor with ensuite full bathroom. This Chautauqua Lake front home is located in Chautauqua County. It's located in the westernmost part of New York State, is a resort area centered around the famed Chautauqua Institution. Its western border is Lake Erie. Many wineries are just a short drive away.

The home is located approximately 70 miles southwest of Buffalo, 50 miles northeast of Erie, PA and is served by the major airports in those cities as well as the Chautauqua County Airport. Interstate routes I-86 and I-90 connect with major eastern, Canadian and western cities and markets.

Our climate is varied, parts being tempered by Lake Erie and parts at higher altitudes providing comfortable summers and snow cover for three major ski resort areas. Our average summer temperature is 77 degrees and our winters average 30 degrees.

Some say Chautauqua (shah tau' qua) is a Seneca Indian name meaning 'Bag Tied in the Middle'. A look at the map shows the name fits the lake. It is 17.3 miles long and boasts some of the best fishing opportunities in the country whether you're a novice or an avid angler. Bass, muskie, walleye, perch, and crappie are just some you will pull in.

Fine choice for Bemus Point

The house is attractively decorated with ample storage including use of the garage. Very nice seating facing Chautauqua lake with a large porch, large deck and Adirondack chairs around a fire pit. Communications were clear and helpful. Lastly, this was far and away the best equipped VRBO we have ever rented.

Convenient and relaxing

The house/cottage is nicely situated. A 5'-10' walk to "downtown" Bemus Point, and on Lake Chautauqua. There's a new back deck, then a long back yard leading to the lake. We kept a kayak in the water at the private dock. Opportunities for easy biking near town, and nice rolling terrain for a 20+ mile ride around part of the lake. The house is nicely kept and equipped with everything - linens, towels, full kitchen. This is our 3rd stay and will come back again.

Whimsical house on the water

Whimsical house with several places to sit and gather both inside and outside. We had bonfires and happy hours outside, meals in the colorful sunroom overlooking the yard and water, and on the rainy night played board games inside. Great location: we walked to Bemus Point, it was a quick drive to the institute and also the comedy museum. On the way home we checked out the Graycliff summer home of Darwin Martin, designed by Frank Wright.

Cozy cottage

Our stay was wonderful, the house was clean and updated… the first floor bedroom mattress was pretty horrible -it needs a foam topper to improve comfort. All other beds are fine… location is fantastic but the backyard view is impaired from the bridge and noisy…however these are minor compared to how comfortable and relaxing this trip was. The kitchen was amazing … cooking was actually enjoyable 🙂
