Private Level Beachfront, Fenced Yard, Boat Dock,Kayaks,CentralAir, Great Views!

This finger lakes home has spectacular views of Owasco Lake from every room!! Because the house is situated on a point,there are breathtaking views of the north end, south end and east side of the lake. One of the greatest aspects of this home is the level lake frontage, which is pretty hard to come by in the finger lakes area. There are no stairs to worry about to get to the water or the house, so bring the grandparents and the kids! The spacious deck on the house is literally two or three feet from the water's edge and the 125' of beachfront gives you plenty of privacy. A lovely enclosed porch runs the whole length of the house. There is a nice grassy side yard for games/play and a privacy fence surrounds most of the lawn without blocking the view.


With approximately 2000 square feet, the house has a very comfortable feel to it. The large living room which also runs the length of the house on the lake side has beautiful hardwood floors and a stone fireplace. French doors with sidelights open onto the porch. There is a formal dining room that seats 10 but there is also a dining table in the porch, along with a wicker seating area. The entire house is filled with classy antiques, beautiful quilts and linens, and is very tastefully decorated.

There are four bedrooms and two full bathrooms with tubs/showers. A bathroom is on each floor. The large bedrooms has a queen bed, two other bedrooms each have a double bed and the 4th bedroom has two twin beds. Two 'rollaway' beds (like cots with mattresses that are portable) can fit in any of the bedrooms. The fully stocked kitchen is large (approximately 20'x14') and has just been recently remodeled! It now has hardwood flooring to match the rest of the home, new gorgeous granite countertops with plenty of counter space, new light maple cabinetry, plenty of recessed lighting, and all stainless steel appliances including a gas range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. Our gourmet kitchen also has basic appliances such as a toaster, blender, garbage disposal, mixer, and coffeemaker. All kinds of cookware, dishes, utensils, and gadgets are provided. The house is on public water and sewer, has cable TV and a DVD player, and also high speed wireless internet. A first floor laundry is also a plus! Linens are provided, but are not your responsibility to wash for the next tenants.

Central air is key for sleeping on those sultry summer nights. Many folks enjoy sitting on the porch at night with the windows open (have screens) and listening to the relaxing sounds of the water. If you like daytime water activities, it is only about 3 feet deep near the end of the dock and just gradually gets deeper further out. It's a great spot for kids and adults alike. Weeds are scarce in this part of the lake, which results in a much more enjoyable swim! The large deck has comfortable seating with a table and some lounge furniture along with a gas grill. If you don't have a boat, one can be rented at one of the three different nearby marinas and kept at the dock. Two kayaks are kept in the garage for you to use along with life jackets as well. There is also a campfire pit located at the edge of the lawn/beach for roasting marsh mellows with the family!
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Owasco Lake. The holiday home includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine and 2 bathrooms

Fabulous Sunny Shores
Owasco Lake was a lovely, quiet lake. Great for swimming and unwinding. The property was as comfortable, clean, and welcoming as it looked in the pictures.

Fun time for family!
We had 3 generations at this lake house for a week. We were able to swim, kayak, fish, paddle board and bike. We also played games and put together a mystery puzzle on the deck that overlooks the lake. One morning I took a nice bike ride around Owasco Lake. It was a little challenging at times, and had great views especially on the east side of the lake. I was particularly happy that my 81 year old mom was able to kayak and swim at the property. There is a nice flat yard and easy access to the lake. There is a nice large table on the patio for eating outside, and also tables on the porch and dining room where you can eat. There also a nice park at the northern end of the lake which is just a few minutes away.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Owasco Lake. The house has both a screened porch and a patio, and is only a few yards away from the lake. There are many farms nearby so there were many flocks of geese that would land in the lake and along with ducks and their young were our evening entertainment. It's proximity to the city of Auburn with restaurants and grocery stores was convenient. The kitchen was great, has full cable TV and comfortable chairs. The host, Christine, is very responsive and awesome to deal with. The stairs to the upstairs bedrooms is a little steep but overall it was a great choice and one we will most likely make again.

A week on Owasco Lake
The property was exactly as pictured and described. The location was ideal. It is close to Auburn and Emerson Park where there is a boat launch. Ample sheets, towels and blankets were provided. The addition of kayaks was most welcome and used every day. The one negative would be the condition of the deck. I believe some repair or replacement is warranted. Overall, it was a great week at the lake.

Great house. Very clean. Our kids enjoyed the kayaks and row boats, and we had a bonfire almost nightly. Lots of good outdoor space. The owner was excellent responding to any issues almost immediately. Overall I highly recommend both the property and the owner (she has other homes in the area as well).

Treasure on Owasco Lake
We had a wonderful weekend stay at this lovely lakeside cottage. And when say “lakeside” I mean 20 feet from the back porch to the lake shore! (No trudging up and down flights of stairs so typical of finger lake houses to get to the water!) Our 5 year old grandson had the time of his life collecting clam and snail shells on the shore, and roaming around the lovely shore-side, privacy-fence-enclosed lawn. The weather is still cool in this area at this time of year so we made good use of the fire ring (again, 10 feet from the shore!). Our party made good use of the two kayaks on the property. The house is a hundred year old gem, well updated. (I had to chuckle about an earlier review complaining about small bathroom stall and a slightly off plumb porch necessitating a flat rock under the porch table to make it level - that’s the way they made them a century ago! The age of the house adds to the charm! Christine was an excellent host, and very helpful and timely in her response to our questions. An enthusiastic thumbs up for this property. We made lovely memories this weekend!

Loved it!
We have stayed at several houses in the FL region, and this was by far the best. The house and property were a perfect size for 6 adults and 2 young kids. Great amenities, swimming and fishing, and rather private for a FL house. Might want to check the dishwasher - not sure it was working properly. Otherwise, all great!

Lasting Memories with Kids and Grandkids
We had decided before last Christmas to start making memories for our kids and grandkids and chose to do a family vacation at the lake. We are so thankful that we did. The house is located on its own point with a totally unobstructed view of the lake. We had morning coffee to enjoy the sunrise and campfires to welcome in the sunsets. We kayaked, rowed and had quality time with each son and the grandkids. We were on the water daily and everyone caught fish! One evening we were visited by a pair of otters and we saw loons most every day. It was a great setup for families with young kids with the large inclosed yard and waterfront. We spent the majority of our time at the house but made visits to Skaneatelas, Seneca Falls and Syracuse. Auburn is easily accessible and provides all of your needs. The people of upstate New York were very outgoing and kind. There was so much to do but best of all relax. It was peaceful quiet and calm, walks at the point were amazing. The internet was speedy as some business needed to be completed. Christine was more than accommodating in every way and easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend this rental and look forward to returning in the future. Leo and Renee

Great stay in this old house
We had a wonderful time in this 100 year old lake house. It was clean, comfortable and spacious. There is not much more I can say that hasn't been said in the other reviews. Yes it is on a fairly busy road but that wasn't a problem. Yes the floors and stairs creak but that is part of the charm. The central A/C is a big plus. The inside of the house is larger than it looks in the photos. Other than that the photos and the listing is accurate. The house could stand a new dock but it served our purpose for when we rented a boat for the day and again there are photos of it in the listing so the owner is not hiding anything. Plenty of outdoor space and chairs. Plenty of towels etc. We had a GREAT time at this house and it was unanimous among the 6 of us. Communication with the owner was great and the check in and departure procedures were relaxed and easy.

Great Family Retreat
This property was charming and comfortable. It had plenty of room for the 7 of us. My elderly mother was able to sleep downstairs on one of the 2 rollaway beds and have easy access to the downstairs bathroom. The wifi worked great for all of us. The newer kitchen was large enough for all of us to move around. There are plenty of eating areas inside and out. The views and location are wonderful. We swam, kayaked and relaxed. There is easy access to Auburn, where there is a Walmart super center. We also visited Lake Skaneatles, Ithaca and Niagra Falls (2 1/2 hours away). If you are looking for a nice family retreat, this is the place.

Beautiful lake front property
Kitchen & dining room are nice with plenty of room for six people.Overall, the house is very old with squeeky floors and very narrow steps going up to the second floor bedrooms. The main bathroom on the first floor has a very tiny room for just the toilet. Also, two of the side bedrooms upstairs, side porch floors and decking area are not level. The table on the porch was propped up with rocks under two of the legs to keep it level!? There was also a broken glass window at the bottom of the front stairs. We were also led to believe there would be adequate parking for our cars & boats. The parking is very limited, as the garage is basically an old, dirty shed very close to the road. Disappointing~This property needs plenty of work!

Perfect wedding retreat
Close to the wedding venue at Emerson Park. Although the wind didn't agree with our kayaking plans, coffee on the porch and listening to the water was just what we needed. Looks better in person than the photos. Not perfect because it's an old lakehouse, which was expected. Charming, lovely and roomy. Well equipped. Would definitely recommend and stay again. One caution if you have mold and mustiness sensitivities, this may not be for you. We do but added a little extra on our meds and all worked out. But we are from the desert so not exactly used to this either.

All questions were answered quickly and courteously. The house is a little dated, but it is also a very cute house with lots of inside and outside space. The house is cute, kind of like going to a family beach house. It is well appointed and has been well used. It is definitely a good place.
