About this property

Lakeside Cottage featuring million-dollar views at prices you can afford & more…

Fully furnished just 13 miles from the Salmon Run Mall. Sleeps 4; 2 bedrooms each with a full-size bed. There is also a sleeper sofa. Location and 4 floor-to-ceiling windows facing the open lake make you feel like you are floating as you experience Lake Ontario’s extraordinary natural beauty in your living room and kitchen. (You actually feel like you are right on the shore). The main deck features a Weber spirit grill and there is a small reading deck to relax and enjoy your morning coffee. Recently we added a deck facing the lake, very relaxing. Other amenities include a quiet, kid friendly cul-de-sac; cable TV; Wi-Fi, and a well-equipped kitchen with a microwave, full size gas stove and refrigerator. Best of all it is affordable; cheaper than most motels in the area.

The property is available to rent by the week starting on a Saturday at 4:00 PM through the following Saturday at 11:00 AM, beginning June 28, 2025 and ending on Oct 25, 2025.

More features have been added to provide an environment that is relaxing and helps you to get away.

More are listed below.
Features
• Cook outs – use a Weber Spirit grill hooked up to the 100-gallon propane tank installed by Suburban Propane; no more running back and forth to town to get 5-gallon refills as they always seem to run dry when you have friends and family with you celebrating summer holidays.
• Water - We recommend you bring your own bottled water for drinking and cooking. We have municipal water delivered so you will have a very reliable water supply, good for any of your other needs. Moms and Dads enjoy bringing small inflatable pools for their toddlers and we have plenty of water to fill them.
• Swimming – it is great. In the summertime the lake is warm, and the kids love it. But be sure to bring your water shoes because wet rocks are slippery.
• Lawn games – there is room for lawn games for kids and adults. Currently, Cornhole is a popular game, so we have provided this lawn game for your enjoyment. Of course, feel free to bring your favorite lawn games.
• Fire pit – There is a firepit for those evening S’mores kids love
• Cable TV – we have Spectrum cable TV and Internet; comes in handy to keep the kids busy on rainy days and your Internet needs.
• Sleeps 4 - The cottage is fully furnished. It sleeps 4; it has two double beds (one in each bedroom) and a queen-sized sleep sofa in the living area
• It also has a fully equipped kitchen. The refrigerator and oven are full sized appliances.
• AC - The living area features high-tech Fujitsu AC. Because humidity accumulates in cottages on hot summer days, the AC both cools and dehumidifies your whole living area. Seniors really love it!
• Heat - We open late June this year through Oct, so the living area also features a new high-tech Rinnai furnace to keep you comfortable on the chilly days we get in the early summer and in the fall. We welcome guests in the off season at reduced rates.
• Insects – Because winged nest building insects and web building spiders are very common along the shores of the Great Lakes, we utilize All Pest’s (Adams, NY) “state of the art” insect control services. They are effective and control harmful nest building insects e.g., wasps, hornets, and spiders. Don’t worry about honeybees that continue to pollinate our plants and flowers (Thank God); and the treatment does not harm people, wildlife, pets, etc.

During the summer, we live 1/4 mile down the street; available to help make your hard-earned vacation cottage a great experience. Please come join us this summer.

About the host

Hosted by Nick Skinner

Host profile image
I grew up in Depauville, NY equidistant between Chaumont and Three Mile Bay, graduating in 1965 from Clayton Central High. Lake Ontario is very special to me. I was just 3 years old when my parents started taking me over to Sherwins Bay on Lake Ontario. Back then the lake was crystal clear so that I could peer over the side of the boat and see all the way to the bottom while the bass my parents caught seemed huge to a 3-year-old. When I was older, my siblings, parents, and I went fishing in the spring, swimming and fishing in the summer. Swimming was especially appreciated because we lacked AC, not widely available in the early 1950s. I became familiar with Pillar Point (Dexter, NY) and Point Peninsula (Three Mile Bay, NY) by “riding around the lake” to cool off. After high school I attended SUNY Oswego. The campus is located on the shores of Lake Ontario facing the open lake. Once again, the Lake was a part of my life for 4 years and continues to this day. I look forward to sharing these experiences with you. You have to see it to believe it.

Why they chose this property

If you choose to come join us, your vacation rental is located in the Dexter area. I acquired this property because all my experiences with Lake Ontario made it easy for me to see its potential with the “million-dollar view” of the lake. I moved a mobile home onto the property and ever since, I have upgraded the cottage with an eye to improving the quality of your vacation.

What makes this property unique

I acquired the parcel the cottage sits on for its million-dollar views. The 4 floor-to-ceiling windows captures this beauty for you, inside or out. Personal dedicated commitment to make your stay enjoyable. • My office is located just up the street; very convenient. • I will be stopping by every 2 or 3 days to pick up trash depending on the size of your party. I will also show you how we recycle, and we have a separate shed to prevent trash and garbage from attracting insects. • During your stay you have my cell phone. If you have any questions, please call me or just stop by. • My goal remains for you to stay as problem free as possible so you can return from vacation rested and relaxed and looking forward to coming back next year.
