Waterfront Escape, walk to town & mins to Syracuse
The Ultimate Oswego River Getaway
Welcome to your a spacious one-of-a-kind waterfront home located right on the beautiful Oswego River. Enjoy a private swim-spa/hot tub, expansive outdoor space, and direct river access with stunning sunsets.
Peaceful yet centrally located, just minutes from Syracuse, Lake Ontario, golf, wineries, and the Finger Lakes region. Perfect for families, friend groups, or anyone looking to host memorable gatherings and special events.
Located on the Oswego River in the heart of the Village of Phoenix which is located by Lock 1, the first Lock heading toward Lake Ontario through the Erie Canal System.
Build a bonfire, go for a swim in the swim spa - summer or winter, fish, enjoy the garden where we grow bird friendly flowers, enjoy watching and feeding the birds, ducks and squirrels, or watch the bald eagles soar and hunt the river, or do nothing at all.
You will have the best views of the sunset from the deck or sitting by the rivers edge.

Strike a pose at one of our themed selfie walls — choose from a flower wall, curtain backdrop, greenery wall, or glamorous bling wall.
Entertain your family with ease using two large tables that comfortably seat up to 12 people each, plus a variety of décor items to bring your vision to life. And for that extra touch of elegance, enjoy our regal white King and Queen thrones — perfect for celebrating in style.
