The land that became our property was once owned by the King family. (i.e. Kingtown Beach Road) In the 1970s it was a marina developed by the Fulton family, with 4 small tourist cabins on the hillside above the water. Two more families loved and cared for the property before our family purchased it in late 2018. We're are delighted to share the beauty of Cayuga Lake with guests from all over the United States and the world, and hope to welcome you soon to The Spotted Sandpiper! Situated on 4 acres and with 400’ of secluded frontage on Cayuga Lake, The Spotted Sandpiper is the largest private lakefront vacation rental property in the Ithaca area. We’re nestled at the end of a private road, but only 7 minutes from Trumansburg, 3 1⁄2 miles from Taughannock State Park, and 20 minutes from Ithaca. We're conveniently located along the Cayuga Wine Trail! We are perfect for family reunions and wedding party rentals, families traveling together or friends looking for a week or weekend away! Our beach is an ideal swimming spot for children because of its gentle slope and clear waters.

Spotted Sandpiper Glamping Site 1

A Serene Glamping Retreat in Nature

The Spotted Sand Piper Glamping Tent was a delightful discovery that exceeded my expectations! Nestled in the heart of nature, this glamping experience offered the perfect balance of outdoor adventure and modern comforts. The tent itself was a true gem, with its thoughtful design and impressive amenities. From the cozy interior to the convenient fridge and TV, every detail was carefully considered to enhance the glamping experience. The free firewood was an especially nice touch, allowing me to enjoy the warmth and ambiance of a campfire. The host's responsiveness and attention to detail were also noteworthy. They were quick to address any questions ensuring a seamless and enjoyable stay. I look forward to returning to this hidden gem in the Finger Lakes region many times in the future. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a unique and unforgettable glamping experience!

Airstream #2

The Airstream was very cute and had everything we needed, free firewood, water and more. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. The campground is right on the lake and the views are beautiful, we would love to visit the campground again.

Sandpiper Weekend.

WOW! Totally amazing. Beautiful property, super cozy and comfortable surroundings the cabin we stayed in was perfect and sit it self, simply stunning. The dock and option to have fun in the water was a bonus. The location was great too. Minutes from Ithaca and only a short to Watkins Glen Already recommended to several folks. Thanks for being such a great host Kate ✌️😊👍

In love with this place ❤️

This is such a lovely place. It has everything you would ever want and need for making your camping experience beautiful! We did a fire outdoors at night and made s’mores. We went kayaking in the lake, we swam in the lake. We hiked the woods. Everything was lovely and Kate the owner was super sweet and helpful with all the questions! They even have a lovely bathroom with showers and they offer potable water to drink :) honestly would do this 100% more times ❤️

We had a great time at the Spotted Sandpiper in the glamping tent! The entire place was super cool. Having waterfront access with kayaks and paddle boards was awesome. The amenities and location was great! We can’t wait to come back! Thank you Kate for a great stay!
