About this property

A Waterfront Treasure

This little cottage is ideal for those who want a romantic retreat, creative get away, wellness stay or just some rest & relaxation.

Here's what I find to be the best features of the property. First, it's a humble cottage that you will find offers all of the conveniences of home. Fully stocked kitchen, washer & dryer, Weber grill on the back deck, you have a large screen TV for those evenings that you may want to recoup from water and sun. Kayaks, an additional deck over the water for dining and so much more that would have to be experienced personally to fully understand.

The location is on 29th Avenue which if you are familiar with Sylvan beach most of the Restaurant and Entertainment is centrally located around Main Street, 13th - 15th Ave. It's a short drive and or walk into town but the beautiful part is that you are nestled away from the busy section and can fully take in the amazing sunsets while relaxing at the quiet end of the Beach.

The cottage is truly single floor living with a very large yard space. The Sunroom features a pull out sofa for two, which offers a sliding glass door for fantastic view and a cool breeze off the lake for a perfect nights sleep, while listening to the waves roll in.

Off of the kitchen is one 1/2 bath and the Master bedroom which has a queen bed w/ ensuite bathroom. There is a small upstairs space which has a twin bed at the top of the stairs as well as a trundle bed to the far front of the house.

The ideal renter would be most interested in privacy, looking to fully enjoy outdoor living in what we consider to be a prime location within the beach.

My husband and I spent our anniversary weekend here during September. It was so peaceful, quiet and beautiful. The deck by the water is perfectly shaded to enjoy warm afternoons. We walked into town, took about 15 minutes, but otherwise enjoyed the sunroom, outdoor patio and deck. Great location and the host has literally thought of every detail to make this a comfortable stay. We will be back!

Fantastic Getaway

My fiancee and I booked this property as a quick weekend getaway and did not disappoint! The cottage is right on the lake, far enough away from the main area to be quiet, but close enough to everything in town! The sunsets were amazing! The property had everything we needed! We will definitely be going back next summer!

Visiting with family

Choose this location because we took my mother in law back to this area where she grew up and for her siblings and nieces to visit with us. Out side decking by lake was perfect for this. Did day trip to Niagara Falls, 3 hour drive each way, which was nice.

Lakeside Oasis

Just what we needed for a extended weekend get away. Thank you Robin for opening up your place for us. You did forget to mention all the wonderful birds we could watch on the lake. We loved watching the Bald Eagle fly by a few mornings and the Belted Kingfishers fishing daily. We had a wonderful time and look forward to staying again and kayaking in the spring.

You saw the Eagle! Fantastic, the Eagle has been a regular visitor this season and such a spectacular sight! So glad that you enjoyed your getaway and that you took in the beauty of the lake and all of its surroundings. I will look forward to seeing you in the spring, have a healthy fall & winter friends.

Property is very nice right on the lake . The only little issue I had that I couldn’t bring the boat close to the shore because the water is very shallow, but I guess is good for family with small kids .

The perfect place!

My mother and I took a girls trip back home for a few days and being someone who grew up in sylvan beach I would highly recommend this place. It’s very close to all the bars and fun stuff but far enough away to enjoy the peace of the lake. Our absolute favorite part was the dock and table right on the lake. We spent most of our time there enjoying meals and the sunsets. Robin was so easy to communicate with and had everything you could need in the house. This will be the place we stay at whenever we visit our hometown in the future!

About the host

Host profile image
Hi! Thanks for considering the cottage. This photo was taken on the lake, I'm Robin the one on the right. The little one on my left is a long time friend, Angi who’s Husband and sons enjoy this cottage from time to time as well.

As soon as I set foot on the property years ago, I knew it was a special place. It's my home away from home which I hope you will enjoy as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

This is one of my all time favorite spots. Oneida Lake can be like a Ocean, the storms rolling in are incredible to watch just as the beautiful sunsets. It's truly a serene spot with respectful neighbors that appreciate the peace of this end of the Lake as much as we do.

My hobby is painting and sketching, I find my best work is done here. Additionally the space is ideal for entertaining as the outdoor area has a larger yard with a secondary deck over the water. My friends love to come here to just unwind after a long week and relax with dinner and cocktails water side.

If you are in search of a bit more of a laid back environment, which is outside of the town itself then this could be the perfect setting for your ideal getaway.

What makes this property unique

Solitude, Waterfront, 2 mins from the center of town and walking distance to all dining, arcade etc. Shallow sand bottom waterfront, with stairs into the water to the left of the property.
