Riverside Getaway - Spend Time with Family and Friends

My family met here in mid-August this year for a reunion after childhood years spent in Baldwinsville at my father's childhood home, which is now sold. He lived right on the Seneca River, and so having a house likewise on the river was a wonderful return to those summer days. The house was spacious and comfortable, and private; house well-stocked with linens, kitchen supplies etc. Appreciated the Adirondack chairs out back, as well as the patio grill and firepit. We had a wonderful week!

Low vehicle traffic area with a gorgeous view of the canal. Osprey and ducks were some of the wildlife viewed from the property. Felt very comfortable and relaxed our complete stay.

The property was very roomy, lots of open space which was great for our family gathering. The bedrooms are all a good size. The back patio area is very nice with a grill and a fire pit, which we really enjoyed. The view of the river was lovely. The water was pretty high when we were there so we didn't go swimming, but we brought our canoe and it was easy to get it in and out of the water and there are a couple beaches nearby. The proximity to Syracuse is great since there is a lot to do there on a rainy day. The owners were very responsive to questions and returned the damage deposit very, very quickly, which was nice.

The only downside was that the mattresses are extremely firm on most of the beds, so if you really don't like a hard bed I would recommend bringing something to cushion the mattress. Also, one room doesn't have air conditioning, but it does have a fan.

We just got home and our stay this past week was so relaxing and beautiful, our daughter got to see snow for the first time. When we arrived the house was in order and nice and warm. Got to see family and just get away. Love this place and hope to come back this summer. Only giving it four stars due to the beds are extra firm.

We stayed here for a long weekend at the end of August. The house is on a secluded drive and right on the river. We were visiting family and it was the perfect location for everyone to meet and hang out. There is lots of outdoor seating, a grill, a firepit, a dock, and a big backyard. Our dog really enjoyed all the space! We borrowed kayaks from friends and I would recommend doing that if you can. The bedrooms were great, there were AC units in two out of the three but it was cool enough at night that we didn't need them. The living room is very comfortable and the kitchen has all you need to cook/clean. Overall if was a great house and location. The only downside was that the river was kind of mucky so bring water shoes if you want to go into the river.
