Featuring a pleasant décor throughout, an indoor bar / entertainment room, wood burning fireplace, rear porch with grill and patio sets, 50’ dock, pedal boat, canoe, kayaks, lakeside fire pit and beautiful views all year long, this property alone has plenty of ways to enjoy your vacation without even having to leave!
A fully furnished cottage, equipped kitchen with basic pantry necessities, and we’ll be glad to provide you with one of our favorite experiences – a great cup of coffee while sitting on the back porch, breathing the refreshing morning air and watching the wildlife wake up.

The cottage has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 7 persons comfortably. Bedroom 1 is off of the Living Room and has a King size bed. Bedroom 2 is just outside the Bathroom door and has a Queen bed. Bedroom 3 is located next to Bedroom 2 and has a Double/Twin bunk combo. The stacked washer and dryer are tucked away in the closet of Bedroom 3 and guests are welcome to use these to do laundry during their stay. The bathroom is a full bath and has a tub/shower combination.
Rain trying to ruin your vacation? We got you covered! The converted garage / bar / entertainment room is where the fun is at! This room is equipped with a 3-4 person bar with stools, cable TV, blender, basic bar essentials, a half fridge/freezer and a 4 chair table, with convenient French door access to the backyard. Be sure to leave a bottle (or half!) in the bar to "pass the spirit” on to the next guest!
A perfect retreat for your next vacation, any time of the year! In the summer, enjoy all sorts of in-the-sun fun on the water, or hiking the gorge, fishing on the lake, or relaxing barbecues. Don’t miss out on the fall season, and take in the stunning fall foliage while wine tasting at all the local wineries, or sipping your favorite microbrew from the many area breweries; enjoy those warm fire pits on a cool night, or just relaxing indoors with a blanket and book or games. During the winter months, enjoy the peace and quiet of a cold and still day, ice fishing or skating just off our shoreline, Waneta Lake’s Ice Derby, or skiing and indoor entertainments just a short drive away.
Easy, level access throughout the whole property make this a perfect retreat for those with difficulty getting around! Just one step into the house and 3 steps off the back porch, or 1 step off the back of the garage, are the only steps needed on the entire property, even the dock! Long stoned driveway can easily fit 4 cars, and only a few paces from the entryway.
Whether there are 2 of you or 7, you'll find Duckingham Cottage to be just the right amount of space, and the perfect location, for that couple days of relaxation that you have been looking for.

Outstanding. They were quick to respond or assist when I had a question. Duckingham Cottage was impeccably clean and had every kitchen tool that we needed. Best cottage rental I have ever had, and I have had many. I will definitely return.

I was very impressed. Its the third different cottage that I have rented on Waneta Lake and I dont think I will have to look for another. It was the first time I had felt as though I was home for the duration of my stay. Thank you for your hospitality.

My wife and I were seeking a waterfront getaway for her birthday. This one couldn't have been more perfect: beautiful setting on the lake; the house was spotless when we arrived, and it is very well equipped -- everything you need for cooking and enjoying for a few days. We brought our own canoes, but the provided canoe, kayaks and paddle boards are of good quality. There's lots of seating/relaxing options inside and out. The lake is gorgeous, and paddlers can co-exist easily with motorboaters, as this end of the lake borders a no-wake zone. Bird life is fascinating, fishing is fun. This is a serene place to center, to be comfortable, and to chill out. We'd love to return.

My family had a wonderful time staying at Duckingham Cottage. Cozy and comfortable with lots of games to keep kids of all ages entertained. The outdoor space was incredible. We ate our meals on the deck and enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings.
Would definitely return!

We have stayed in the Finger Lakes many times and Duckingham Cottage has been our favorite. It is centrally located between Keuka and Seneca wine trails. The cottage is extremely well stocked and very clean. We felt like we were at home. We loved the game room. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The Duckingham Cottage is a quaint/adorable Cottage located right on the lake which provided us with a gorgeous view from the living room/back deck for our entire stay. Arrived to a very clean cottage, a kitchen that was well equipped, many outdoor water sports equipment (paddle boat, canoe, kayaks, fishing rods) available for our use and enjoyment. Convenient location to to explore some of the Finger Lake area plus was in close distance to Watkins Glen.

Great, well maintained property with lots of amenities, centrally locates to Watkins Glenn, Hamondsport and Penn Yan. Great for families and couples. One minor disappointment was the lake grass a few feet from shore. We went further out in the lake to swim.

Super comfortable and they truly went out of their way to make sure you have all that you need...fishing poles all ready to go..paddle boat + boards kayak play...firepit smore nights..board game nights...outside grill and beautiful sunset dinners..hard to even leave their home. BUT!...when you do the sweet little town is filled with lots character and must stops. The surrounding area had the best road side pull over adventures as well!! I can go on forever..we will definitely be heading back to check out ALL seasons!

Beautiful property and views, very clean, quiet, and peaceful. So many amenities...new canoe, paddle board, kayaks, and pedal boat all conveniently onsite at no extra charge. Close to so many wineries, parks, and other Finger Lake attractions! Loved the place and would definitely stay there again...never heard of Waneta Lake until we booked the trip, but so glad we chose this location! Thank You to Linger Hospitality and the owners of Duckingham Cottage!!!

Our girls weekend getaway was quite possibly one of the best long weekend trips! Duckingham Cottage was the cutest little cottage and the owners truly thought about the needs and enjoyment of the guests staying there! We were greeted with lovely accommodations, plenty of fun things to do, information for the area, and access to the equipment such as kayaks and paddleboards that came with the house. The guestbook is such a clever idea for future guests to read. On the drive home we were already planning a return trip!

We stayed 3 nights, and after the first day I called the owner to see if we could extend our stay. Says it all! Beautiful location on west-facing shore of Waneta Lake, with a long grass lawn running down to the lakes edge, and great views over to the west shoreline. The house is both comfortable and well equipped, and with charm and flexibility. There is the space to have privacy even if you are in a group eg the main room plus kitchen, then a separate bar and games room, in addition to the deck outside. And, last but not least, a fire-pit where we enjoyed smores across 3 generations. Great memories. Hope we can come back and make more!

Duckingham Cottage is amazing, photos dont even do it justice! We loved all of the decor and feel of the house. It was so cozy and felt like home! Ive vacationed at different lakes in NY my entire life, and Waneta is now by far my favorite. Its the perfect temp and I love that its not too crowded. Our 3 year old daughter was able to stand far past the dock which was nice, she absolutely loved swimming! So many fun activities and games provided, and we loved using all the different boats! The bar room was definitely our favorite room, especially at night it just had the best vacation vibe to it, so many memories made there! We also enjoyed the fire pit and toasting marshmallows almost nightly. Overall it was the best trip and we had such a great experience with the home and Linger Hospitality, we will absolutely be back!
