About Us

Cottage Views Lodging is a historic farm house that has 3 separate rooms for rent, each with private baths. We live in the house year round, and do not accommodate groups or family reunions. Our goal is to provide a low key, relaxing, visit for couples traveling to NY’s premier wine country. We maintain a two night minimum and four night maximum all year, and are closed on Tuesday and Wednesdays. Handicapped access is not available. Coffee/tea and a light bite are served to your door each morning.

A Little History

Nestled in the heart of the Seneca Lake wine trail, in the Finger Lakes district of upstate New York, is a 200-plus year old home that began life as a Drovers’ Inn and has continued as a lodging facility for over two centuries.
Partners Deborah Cumings (a former employee of Beret Design Group and current employee of Associates in Woman’s Healthcare) and author/sommelier Michael A. Cimino purchased the building and reopened as Cottage Views in August of 2013. Michael is an award winning sommelier who has supported New York wines since his formal training more than 30 years ago at the Sommelier Society of America, and is the manager of the Tasting Barn at Ryan William Vineyards.
