About this property

Lakeside Boating Cottage

One guest said:
My recent 3 day stay with friends at the newly remodeled house on Pymatuning Lake was a total pleasure. Not only the fact that everything in the place, from the flooring to the roofing, is new, the design of the galley kitchen and the traffic patterns work perfect for any size group. There's private spaces when needed and group areas for gathers and TV watching. Outside, parking for cars and boats, room for the kids to run, great view and easy walk to the lake, large fire pit area with firewood for s'mores, and a nice size propane BBQ. Also, and very important to me, everything you need for a "don't forget anything" trip is well thought out and already there. Looking forward to my next visit.

Pymatuning Boating Lakeside Cottage is newly renovated with great lake view. It has three bedrooms, two baths, an all new galley kitchen with Amish built hickory cabinets, and new stainless appliances. The cottage has both central heating and air conditining plus several ceiling fans for cool air.
The outdoor deck offers game playing with a large ceiling fan . A large outdoor fire ring is behind the house with plenty of wood available..
A private boat dock willl be added April 1, 2022. Guests will be able to put their boat in the water at the public boat launch and moor it at the property to access the cottage.
Boat docks are also available at both the Espyville Marina and the Linesville Marina. You can rent a slip there for your stay or rent a boat (mostly pontoon boats). Fishing on the lake is 20 horsepower or less. Pymatuning Lake is known as a favorite vacation area for generations of visitors. The Lakeside Boating Cottage at Pymatuning is a short walk to the lake and has great water views from the kitchen and living room.
It is a popular fishing spot for families from the surrounding areas and states.
The lake is 20 miles long and offers the Pymatuning State Park on both the Ohio side of the lake and on the Pennsylvania side of the lake.
Espyville is a very small community with friendly people and the best ice cream stand for miles around.
This cottage is available during the winter months for a 7 night stay and spring, summer, and fall with a 4 nightminimum.. Our housekeeper cleans and prepares the cottage for your visit between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.

The most perfect rental!!

There's a reason we've stayed multiple times here over the last year. The place is absolutely perfect and peaceful with its own private dock. I'm so glad we found this gem, it's truly amazing. One of my favorite things about the place is the huge and unique windows in the kitchen area. I love looking out those and watching the wildlife and scenery.

A wonderful place to relax and rejuvenate!

The Lakeside Boating Cottage is wonderful! The marina is just down the road and has a wonderful selection of rental craft and the staff are very helpful. There is a short walk through a cleared wide path from the house to the lake and in the evenings the deer and turkeys, and occasional groundhog, come out to enjoy their grassy dinner. Everything was perfect and the house is well kept and spotless! There is great perch fishing from the dock at the Wilson Road entrance to Pymatuning State Park. And, Mary Ellen was attentive and responded rapidly to questions and comments! We had a wonderful and relaxing time and are looking forward to returning next year!!

Awesome place to stay!

The House and property was much better than we anticipated ! The only issues we had were that there was no firewood or propane for the grill when we arrived so we had to go in search for both and spend additional money right off the bat but it was a small price to pay for the perfection of everything else! I will and have recommended to others!

Gorgeous rental with dock

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here. It was just as perfect and beautiful as the first time. Everything you could possibly need is provided in the house. It is beautifully decorated. It has it's own private dock and the sunsets were amazing when we were there. The area is so nice & quiet and it was exactly what we needed. We will definitely stay here again.

Fisherman's Hospitality!

this Lakeside Boating Cottage is perfect for the angler and others as well. The small garage has an additional fridge to keep your life bait, a small chest freezer to keep your ice etc. an outside fish cleaning station. And there is a nice dock for docking your boat and a gravel path leading to it. Thanks Mary Ellen for offering this property for vacation opportunities!

The place was lovely. We watched the deer play in backyard. Rained, was cold, and windy. But it was still a nice place to relax. We watched movies and enjoyed the local restaurants The house had everything we needed, except a stool to get into beds. One was very high.

Absolutely gorgeous & perfect!

We stayed here for a long weekend. Every single thing about this place was perfect and the kitchen is absolutely gorgeous!! We loved being able to walk down to our own dock to fish. It was so quiet and peaceful and we wished we could stay here forever. The pictures posted for this property are great but you really have to see it in person because it's even more beautiful in person. This was a fantastic find for us and we're definitely coming back for another stay.... or two!!

Wonderful time at Pymatuning!

The house was immaculate and ready for us when we arrived. Appliances were very modern and worked well. Internet and Roku TV were excellent. It's a short 250' walk to the lake and the dock was a wonderful place to sit in the sun and enjoy the lake. The marina was just down the road and boat rental was reasonable. We had a wonderful and relaxing time!

Love Love Love this place

This house provided everything our family needed for a little getaway. The kitchen was stocked with more than you could imagine. The beds and couches were very comfortable. The dock was the BEST!!!! We went kayaking, fishing, and swimming right there. We enjoyed relaxing by the fire pit at night. The cornhole boards were a hit as well. This house supplies it all. The grill was great for dinners. It’s prime location makes it very ideal. We plan to make this a yearly trip now.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Ellen Harwood

Host profile image
I was born and raised on a dairy farm in Eastern Pennsylvania amid the Pennsylvania Dutch communities. My husband and I discovered the Pymatuning Lake area a number of years ago. He was an avid fisherman who left no stones unturned for fishing opportunities.
We lived in California for many years and now I am able to split my time between my home in Oxnard, California and this Lakeside Boating Cottage in Espyville at Pymatuning Lake in Pennsylvania.

Why they chose this property

My recent 3 day stay with friends at the newly remodeled house on Pymatuning Lake was a total pleasure. Not only the fact that everything in the place, from the flooring to the roofing, is new, the design of the galley kitchen and the traffic patterns work perfect for any size group.

What makes this property unique

I love the lakeside cottage for its views of nature, its peacefulness, and its East Coast location and proximity to both my family and the Harwoods of Northeast Ohio.
Fishing and boating is the primary reason folks come to Pymatuning. It is a family friendly area with beaches, marinas, wineries, and several family restaurants.
