Oak Hill Rd Catharine, NY 14805

Set among a backdrop of deep woods, rolling topography, and flowing water, this Cayuta Creek retreat in the town of Catherine offers a chance to own land and lifestyle. With approximately 300+/- feet of year-round, maintained road frontage on Oak Hill Road and power nearby (though not directly along the frontage), the property is as accessible as it is private. Cutting through the core, Cayuta Creek’s clear waters carve their way along the bedded slate and smooth river stone, creating a rugged and beautiful corridor of deep pools, running riffles and pristine pocket water. Though this section of the creek isn’t stocked, it’s long been whispered that trout from stocked sections find their way here—and the seller backs that claim with more than a few tales of tight lines from well-placed flies. The forested expanse is equally inviting. A mix of maple, oak, and scattered conifers blankets the land’s folds and contours, providing excellent cover for wildlife and an ideal setting for hiking, hunting, or quiet exploration. A small sugar shack and wood shed stand ready for your next maple boil, adding a timeless charm—and purpose—to the property. To the east, more than 11,000 acres of Connecticut Hill State Forest rise up, offering unmatched access to one of the largest wild spaces in the region has to offer. The Finger Lakes Trail passes just feet from the boundary, opening the door to days-long adventures on foot. Located less than 30 minutes from both Ithaca and Watkins Glen, this is a place where convenience meets spirits wild with whispers of pursuit and promise of a place to unwind. Whether you’re looking to build (with town approvals), camp, hunt, fish, or simply unplug, this adaptable land stands ready for your vision.
