Perfect Lake View

Loved the view, water toys, and lake access. There were only 4 of us and more than enough room. Really cozy and clean. Would be happy to stay again sometime in the warmer months.

Absolutely the BEST!!!!!

Absolutely beautiful, comfortable home! Stunning location, right on the lake with amazing views from all the windows and lots of outdoor space to play. Beds were quite comfortable, kitchen well stocked, and the house was very clean. We were there in the winter, so couldn't take advantage of all the equipment for summer activities, but everything you need for water activities, barbecues and hanging out around a fire pit are there. The best part was the host, Lauren. She was so kind and easy to communicate with. It was a lovely and thoughtful surprise to find she decorated the home for the holidays, as we spent Christmas there. She went out of her way to make us feel at home. Looking forward to coming back !

Beautiful!!

Everything was absolutely amazing about this place. View was great, home was so nice. The only complaint that I had was the price for the cleaning crew. Compared to others it was quite high. But overall a wonderful experience!!

About the host

Hosted by Lauren and Jeff

Hi there! I'm Lauren, my husband Jeff and I bought this property in 2021 and completely overhauled just about everything from top to bottom, with the help of our kids. This cottage has been a labor of love and something we are proud to call our home away from home. We hope you enjoy it just as much as we do!

We are a Superhost on various platforms and can provide our 5 Star Rating reviews at your request!

Why they chose this property

This property is unique on Owasco Lake as you'll have access to over 2 acres of private yard as well as 108' of lakefront. The panoramic windows ensure you get plenty of sunlight throughout the day and the outdoor deck is perfect for watching the sunrise everyday.

What makes this property unique

You have access to the entire house and 2.5 acre property during your stay. There are several private parking spots for your vehicle(s) and there is room on the lawn for a boat trailer. The entire property between the house and the main road is yours during your stay.

We want to provide our guests with the cottage vacation experience and hospitality that is second to none. Our design choices were made with family gatherings and the guest experience in mind. Guests get the cozy cottage experience with all the perks of modern amenities, maximized functionality, and detailed touches.

This is one of the best spots on the lake. Whether you want to swim, kayak, boat, fish, make your way to the cove, or just relax - you can do it all from here.

We have kayaks, a canoe, and life jackets available for use, at your own risk (there is no lifeguard). The home has a level side yard and two (2) acres in back which adds to your play space.

Our home has panoramic windows facing the water so even if the weather is not cooperating, you can still enjoy the view. Inside, the master bedroom has a king sized bed, large closet, and wireless phone chargers. There is a luggage rack for your convenience and a mounted smart TV, should you wish to login to your favorite streaming service. While on the smaller side, the master bathroom offers a full sized tub/shower.

The landing area upstairs is a great space for kids to hangout as it contains a smart TV and several games. There is also a twin over twin trundle which can be used as a couch, or beds.

The upstairs bedroom contains a queen bed and full bed, along with a closet and luggage rack. As the homes in this area were all previous camps, the upstairs of the cottage has a lower ceiling height than the downstairs. Also upstairs is a portable AC unit and a full bathroom.
