Beautiful Pet friendly cottage by the Stow Ferry

Located within walking distance to the historic Stow Ferry and minutes from Bemus Point this is definitely the sweet spot on Chautauqua Lake. You are a few minutes away from Bemus point (the most popular town on the lake), the Institute, and beautiful Lakewood. Across the street is Hogans hut the largest bait and convenience store on the lake. This is the perfect spot to unwind on the lake and be minutes away from Chautauqua counties major attractions

This is a 4 season 2-bedroom cottage with an additional queen pull out bed that will comfortably sleep 8, and can accommodate up to 3 cars. This is a fully furnished home that has two bedrooms upstairs with a king bed, 2 queens in the other bedroom, and a pull-out queen in the living room. Upstairs has window air conditioners. The house has a full-size washer and dryer, and fully equipped kitchen. You have high speed internet and a Roku TV with YouTube TV, Netflix, Amazon prime, and Disney Plus . I have installed an air cleaning system that will remove pollen and all viruses including COVID 19 from the heating system. You are 5 minutes from Bemus Point (via the stow ferry or the 86 bridge), the Chautauqua Institute, Prendergast boat launch (largest free launch on the lake), and Long Point state park. Mayville, Jamestown and Lakewood are very close by so you'll have lots of restaurants and entertainment options on and off the lake. There is a private fire pit and seating for 6 (the fire wood can be purchased at hogan's hit and many other road side stands). There is a nature trail within walking distance that brings lots of wildlife to the property, and you’ll have access to outdoor seating and a large shared lot for outdoor fun (front house is also a VRBO I own). You are a two-minute walk from Hogan’s hut the largest tackle and convenience store on the lake!! Here you can get all your fishing gear, firewood, great coffee, subs, and soft serve ice cream! Just sit back, relax, and enjoy everything Chautauqua Lake has to offer!!

There are two houses on the property the front house (Jack) and the back house your renting on this listing (Jill) both have individual fire pits, seating areas, and a shared firepit for social groups and large gatherings. There is one neighbor to the side and no other neighbors nearby. The driveway is 2 cars wide and very long so there should be plenty of parking. There is a large side yard you are free to use just be respectful of the property, and the shared access with the neighbors up front.
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Chautauqua Lake. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the holiday home.

Decent Place to stay
My kids and I were visiting friends in NY and decided to rent a place on/near the lake. I feel the description online was a bit deceiving by claiming to “have swimming” as an amenity. Yes swimming was an option but we had to drive to get there and either pay to do so or find an area beach to go to. We drove to a state park area but swimming was not allowed at that time because there were no lifeguards on duty. The house was decent but could definitely use some improvements that would make a huge difference to renters. The shower curtain liner was dirty, this is an item that could be replaced for a couple dollars. The door frame around the bathroom and the baseboard around the floor at the top of the stairs were loose with nails sticking out, another easy fix that should have been taken care of. Though I appreciated having hangers in both the downstairs closet and the upstairs bedroom they were cheap and made the room look less appealing. Another inexpensive fix switching those out with simple plastic hangers from Walmart. The mattress cover on the bed upstairs near the window was stained with urine, which leads me to believe when the bedding is changed the cover is not, that is unacceptable. The mattress on the fold out couch was also stained in urine. We arrived there on Friday, the trash cans outside had trash in them, one of them completely covered in maggots (I have photos), disgusting. Trash day is Wednesday but all trash should be removed when a guest checks out.

Convenient location and comfortable beds
The location is very convenient, very close to the Stowe Ferry and right off I-86 on Chautauqua Lake on the west side of the bridge. The house was clean and the beds comfortable. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Dan & Melinda, Thanks for allowing "us" at your cottage. We had a company event and had booked several places in Bemus and yours was one of them. I personally was not in your cottage whatsoever, but heard from others. They said it was clean and that all was good. Thank You!

Lakeside camp
The location is special and the cottage is a work in progress. But it was as represented and there were no issues. Unfortunately the weather because of climate change sadly negatively affects the appeal of the area for senior travel. The institute nearby and available but challenging due to heat and air quality.

Just What we needed
Property was beautiful, very close to see the water, the ferry, convenience and grocery was close too. Yard is large enough for the kids to play, we tried to have a fire, but everything had been damp for days, would have been just fine if we had wanted to grab dry wood. We definitely plan on returning next year!
