Welcome to Ripley’s Roost on beautiful Keuka Lake. Located in the heart of the Finger Lakes wine country, our contemporary vacation home is perfectly suited for up to ten guests. We offer 4 bedrooms & 2 baths, 2 living rooms, kitchen and wet bar. Enjoy the beauty of the lake from two 185 sq. ft. balconies. On the lakefront we offer a covered deck, natural beach with lake toys, a kayak and fire pit (shared with The Cottage in the Pines).

The space
The whole home is available for your enjoyment. Prepare your meals in our brand new kitchen or enjoy our local eateries.
We offer many ways to enjoy the lake from our spacious balconies, lakeside covered deck, new seawall with mooring for your boat, natural beach and kayak for guest use.

Need more space? Rent The Cottage in the Pines immediately adjacent to Ripley’s Roost for up to ten more guests. Makes a great family vacation compound.

Guest access
Guests have access to the whole property however, a dedicated section of the lakefront is used by our guests from The Cottage in the Pines. The swim float and fire pit area are used jointly and a great opportunity to make new friends.

Other things to note
Due to abuse by previous guests, Ripley’s Roost will NOT allow Bachelor or Bachelorette type parties to take place. Any such party taking place will be reported to AirBnB and an additional $1000 fee will be assessed. To this end, we will no longer accept reservation requests from guests with fewer than three reviews and a 4 star rating.

Neighborhood highlights

Surrounded by rolling, vineyard-covered hills, the shores of Keuka Lake provide the perfect place to relax and recharge.

The lake offers a wealth of entertainment. Its shallower depths (183’) means it stays warmer than deeper Finger Lakes, making it an ideal summer destination for swimming and watersports of all kinds. The lake also boasts excellent fishing including Brown Trout, Smallmouth Bass and Landlocked Salmon.

Named "the world's most beautiful wine region," by readers of Budget Travel magazine, there are many outstanding, world-class Finger Lakes wineries located in the hills along Keuka Lake.

At the southern tip of Keuka Lake, Hammondsport was home to aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss, known as the "Father of Naval Aviation," who designed, built, and flew seaplanes off the waters of Keuka in the early 1900s.
