We had out wedding here August 2025 and had an amazing experience with this venue! The staff was excellent and our guests kept telling us that they’d made friends with them. We had the on-site lodging for immediate family and some friends, with the remainder of our 100 guests staying in the area around the venue. We fit in the reception area with tables for all, though it was a bit of a tight fit. Nothing I haven’t seen before, though. We had dancing and cocktail hour on the porch, and all our guests enjoyed time on the docks taking photos. The food and set-up/break-down was easy and I felt so supported as a stressed-out bride. We love Cayuga shoreline and I could not recommend it enough!

Ate here last week, it was great and the afternoon was stunning. Very sweet wait person drives from Penn Yan because she loves working there. Our meals were great and a step above. We loved the duck wings. My friends prime rib sandwich was excellent as was the tuna. I loved the Caesar salad. The lobster roll was tasty and a surprising choice for Central NY. Very rich and buttery.

Hosts occasional vegan events which are always a pleasure. Excellent food and atmosphere, with a creative twist on things. A. It of a drive to get there, but we’ll worth it!

Words cannot express how happy I am that we got married at Cayuga Shoreline! We live 3 hours away in the Poconos but knew we wanted to get married in the Finger Lakes area. Not only is the beauty of the lake unmatched, the venue itself is so unique, modern and versatile, yet still down to earth and cozy. Our families stayed in the on-site accommodations from Wednesday-Monday which were all very comfortable and clean. The days surrounding our wedding day were so fun for everyone, between the use of the kayaks/canoes, proximity to hiking/wineries and the great food and friendly atmosphere of O’Malleys. Katy was communicative, kind, and went above and beyond to make sure our day was seamless and the service was perfection. Chef Clem was fantastic, he built a wedding menu that was customized to our tastes (Latin-inspired, with gluten free and vegetarian options), the food was incredible and it was one of the standout compliments we continue to get about our wedding! This is where you want to get married if you’re not into a cookie cutter ballroom and typical wedding fare. We love that we can come back here for dinners and Sunday brunches, and plan to do so every year. Katy, Clem, and all the staff treated us like family and we are all so grateful for the incredible experience, thank you all!

This is normally a wedding venue but we reserved it for a family reunion and it was one of the best reunions we have had yet. There are 38 of us with our kids, their spouses and grand kids. We rented the Farmhouse, the 4 cabins and the bridal suite and it barely fit us all in. We were there for 4 nights and there was lots to do in the area. It is a beautiful area and it was not at all crowded with boats or people. We rented a boat one day from Cayuga Boat Rental and that was a great deal with great service and a fairly new pontoon boat that we used to pull the grand kids on tubes most of the day. They even brought the boat to us and were great to work with. Melissa and her husband are the owners. I highly recommend them.
Cayuga Shoreline had several kayaks, canoes and paddle boards just for us and they were included and were used every day by everyone. The lake is beautiful and it was relaxing to be on it.
Steve handled all of our needs and was absolutely great. They are not used to having that many people rent all of the property so there was a bit of a shortage before we got there, but Steve kindly took care of making sure that we had all the things we needed to cook, eat, sleep and shower. Steve was in contact with us throughout the process and it gave me great peace of mind that all would be ready for us, and it was.
The only downside that I can think of was that there were not life jackets for infants of about two years or younger and there was one sleeping room near the kitchen in the Farmhouse that had a curtain rather than a door. It would probably be best to have a maximum of about 35 guests. Steve did us a big favor to fit in 38 and so I am not complaining about this. We also brought 4 life jackets for our youngest grandchildren since Steve had let us know the situation there.
We are from the west, but would make this trip again, even with travelling all the way across the country.

Katy, Elaine, and Keziah were simply marvelous hosts, treating us like family, at this unassuming yet delightful restaurant right on the shore. We went two nights in a row, just down from Sheldrake Point, near the winery. Their lakeside deck where we dined has a superb vista! The entrées were top-notch as were the sides and they have a nice little cocktail program, too. Alas, we did not take any photos, but entrée presentation was excellent for the delicious bavette steak salad and the seared ahi tuna with chili crisp, as were the sauces and sides. (We don’t usually order this, but the Parmesan truffle fries on the second night were absolutely amazing!) We will be back!

My first visit to this lake front spot. It is listed as a wedding venue, but does have brunch and lunch with updated operating hours on social.media. the atmosphere was lovely ..we sat outside. Both my friend and I had the frittata. We enjoyed a bloody Mary and belini. The only negative of this place was the chairs in my opinion were very uncomfortable and I was ready to go because it didn’t want to sit any longer . They looked nice not at all comfort able or very wide. The indoor area looked like it has some soft seating and cool ambiance. We will definitely be back .

My company just had a dinner here for our north east regional conference and I cannot express how amazing the location and staff and FOOD were! This was absolutely the highlight of our trip, from everything to the waterfront view, the wonderful attitude of the staff and the general vibe the restaurant has. I cannot wait to make a trip in the future just to come back and visit.

Beautiful restaurant right on the water with outdoor / dockside seating and adirondack chairs lining the shore. Do not miss out on this comfy, cozy establishment, which is the perfect place to relax after a long day of tourism! There is also lodging available, which includes lakeside cottages. The space can be used for events. We visited as part of a wedding welcome party!
