About this property
Beautiful Lake "Front" Ontario Home Located in Oswego, NY.
The maintenance free house is located on a bluff at the end of a dead end street with plenty of parking. It has all new carpeting, hardwood floors, ceramic tile flooring, and new maintenance free decking. It has all city services, including water and sewer. It borders a forever wild area. The lawn extends to the magnificent Great Lake, the view across Lake Ontario is endless as Canada is 66 miles away. Be sure to bring your camera as the sunsets are spectacular! The Oswego Light House is viewable from the Lake front Yard. The shoreline features multi-colored stones of all sizes and the lake has a sandy bottom 25' from shore. We maintain a walking path through the forever wild area of the woods which leads to the waters edge. In 2019 we completed the installation of a Cedar Split Rail Fence with several gates, it completely surrounds the side and Lake front area of the house, so if you plan to bring your fur babies they will now be safely fenced in. In 2020 we added all new Granite Kitchen Counter tops and renovated the 2nd bathroom. We have a cleaning person and a lawn service that do a spectacular job keeping the house and grounds in tip top shape. Our trusted Property managers, Walt & Cynde live 5 houses away so if anything is ever needed they can be there in a few minutes notice. Once you secure your booking I make the lines of communication open, you will get my cell phone number and I am available 24/ 7 during your stay. We strive to do everything in our power to make your stay as fabulous as it can be. We encourage you to reach out to us during your stay if you should need anything, again, we want you to have the BEST vacation ever! The house sleeps 8 (8 MAX) with two official bedrooms, the "Master" suite has one king bed, dressers and with a FULL bathroom connected to it. The "Guest Room" has one queen sized bed and a dresser. There are three twin beds in the "Kid Zone" area and one Twin bed with a Twin Trundle bed that rolls out from under the frame in what we refer to as the "Office" area. There are two full baths including the one in the master bedroom and the other is just off the kitchen/ dining room area in the main part of the house. The 25' X 10' room with the three twin beds has large windows, tv, games and a ceiling fan... we call this room the "Kids Zone". There is another smaller room with a desk (office area) and built in storage with a Twin Bed and a Twin Trundle Bed. There is a full kitchen stocked with everything you will need to cook with. There is a laundry room with a washer and dryer, a dining area that seats 8 and a living room with two couches and a gas fireplace that separates the living space into two areas also with a flat screen TV. There are ceiling fans throughout, there is also central AC/heat throughout, however we find that even in the warmest months there's always a nice breeze at the lake. There are large sliding glass doors that lead to the all weather decks that surround the lake front/ and side of the house. One small side deck off the dining area is 6' X 6' and the large deck facing Lake Ontario is 25' X 12', that deck adjoins another deck area that has panoramic views of both the Lake and the forever wild, side yard . From there, it is only steps away to an enclosed (screens and windows) gazebo with a ceiling fan, lighting and electric. There is 4 comfy chairs and a coffee table inside of the Gazebo. There's a fun tiki bar, (find the tiki umbrella in the garage) lounge chairs, and out door furniture that complete the lake facing deck.
The Lake House is very private, it's the last house on a dead end street, yet all services can be found within a three mile radius. There is a Walmart, a Price Chopper, Big Lots, TJ MAXX, and many other stores within 5 minutes from the house if you should need anything. We purchased the little camp next door in 2021, we are in the process of fixing it up and possibly make it into a future rental. As of right now only family members stay there on occasion. So do not worry, if anyone happens to be there during your stay, we will be respectful of your privacy as we enjoy our own privacy as well. Please feel free to ask me any questions regarding this if you should have any. The property is pet friendly, but approval must be cleared with the home owner. NOTE: There is a $75.- Per Pet/ Per Stay- Fee should you choose to bring your furry family member(s) on vacation. I do require proof of up to date immunizations, such as rabies ect. Also, your pet should be treated with flea and tick preventative prior to your arrival, and I ask that you clean up after your pet's waste. Please keep in mind that there is a leash law in effect in Oswego, NY so you'll need to keep your dog on a leash and under your control at all times. 2 Dog Maximum , 50 pounds or less. If you have any questions please ask.
****The “Cleaning Fee” is $200.-
Check in is after 3PM & Check out is by 10AM. Please adhere to these times as we often have same day turn overs and our cleaning crew needs to get in the house to clean. Please ask permission if you need an early or late check in or check out and if I can allow it, I will. Thank you.
****And for those rainy days and or the person that just can't seem to unplug we do offer cable and high speed internet/ WIFI.
***We do require a three night minimum ***
NOTE: I have tried several times to no avail to edit this page to inform future renters that it is NOT a 5 Bedroom house. For some reason VRBO has it listed as a 5 bedroom home. For clarity, the house has TWO OFFICIAL bedrooms, One King (Master), One Queen (Guest room) and there is an Office area with a desk and also with a Twin Bed with a Twin Trundle bed (2 Twins Total in this area.) And lastly, the Kid Zone area has 3- Twin Beds. TOTAL Bed Count in the whole house is ONE- KING/ ONE QUEEN/ and FIVE TWIN BEDS. Not sure why the website can not correct that but I want to make it clear for you.
NOTE: **** We do have a separate "Rental Agreement" that is attached to the VRBO rental agreement. We ask that any and all Guests please review, initial, sign and return the attached Rental Agreement to the owner prior to check in. .

Thank you so much for the 5 Star review! I am so happy that you enjoyed your vacation and the house met all of your expectations. The view can't be beat! You're right about that! You and your family are welcome back anytime. Thanks again for the great review!
Wonderful location and exceptional views of Lake Ontario. Secluded spot yet close enough to the city of Oswego for other activities or supplies. The home was very clean and well kept. The owner was readily accessible at all times and very good to deal with.

Our family enjoyed our time at the lake from breakfast on the deck to gorgeous sunsets and campfire at night very peaceful, clean and well taken care of property. We couldn’t get on the beach there as to many branches blocked it but the path down was neat

Response from VrboOwner on 28 Jul 2025
Thank you so much Billie for this great review- Are you saying there was a TREE that fell that blocked you from accessing the Beach? I so wish you would have told me that and I could have had someone get there and clean it up ASAP... I live 3.5 hours from the house so I do not "see" everything right away, but I do have property managers that live on the street and they let me know right away when they are aware of something-. I could have definitely had that taken care of right away for you and your family- I have a lawn person who also cares for the walking path to the Lake, I will need to investigate this right away... Sorry that was an issue for you. I so wish you told me sooner- I will look into that immediately and get it taken care of right away so our next renter does not have the same problem... I am happy you enjoyed your stay overall and I welcome you back anytime. Thank you!!!!
We met up with some friends and their kids and had a great stay. The house is set up as to have a "kids wing" which suited us all very well.
We would love to come back again.

Wonderful house and location. One of the cleanest places we've ever rented. The owner was VERY communicative and available, as were the caretakers just a few doors down. We will definitely come back!

As a fellow traveler who has stayed at other VRBO rental homes it's really important to earn a great review so others can read them and make an informed choice about where they want to stay and spend their money, so I thank you for helping out!

Thank you Kathi for the GREAT review! Who could've imagined the garbage truck taking out the electric pole that serviced the entire street one hour before the Solar Eclipse!? Good Lord! LOL- Thank you for going with the flow and making the best of it! Sorry it was a little cloudy for the Eclipse. I'm happy you and your family enjoyed your stay! Welcome Back anytime! Thank you for taking such great care of everything at the house.
The weather didn’t cooperate with us every day but still a great get away. We had some great sunsets and a couple evening fires. An excellent location on the outskirts of town but close to everything needed.

HI! Thank you for the nice review! Sorry about the weather... although a good storm on the Lake can be exciting... but I know lots of rain stinks while on vacation too. Hopefully you found some fun things to do during the rainy time.Welcome back anytime.
The lake house was a great place to relax and reconnect with friends. Its in a perfect middle ground of quiet and out of the way, but also close enough to a nice city with plenty to explore. Jean was also very communicative and helpful with details from start to finish, as well as backup contacts if needed!

About the host
Hosted by Jean Spoljaric
We are a family of five who enjoy all of activities and opportunities that Lakefront living has to offer. Although my kids are all grown up now they spent their childhood at the Lake in the Summers.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the location! Super private and It has the luxury of all services being conveniently located, yet the seclusion, privacy, and relaxation that a waterfront property provides.
What makes this property unique
We love to kayak, bike ride, sail, and take in some of the world's most beautiful sunsets. We love sharing it with family and friends. I've been told that the photos on the website don't do the house justice, so you will need to see for yourselves what everyone is talking about.
