Enjoyable Camp

An enjoyable camp on the lake offers lots of activities and is perfect for families. Really good swimming, access to Selkirk State Park makes for excellent trail running and biking, and fires on the beach at the end of the day all make this camp a great place to stay.

Beautiful location on Lake Ontario

We had a wonderful week at this location. We were fortunate to have a sandy beach- the neighbors explained that due to fluctuating water levels, this only happens every few years. The sunsets were fantastic. The kids loved having their own spacious room. We really appreciated the Wi-Fi and washer/dryer!

Lake house family getaway

Bob and Janet provide the quintessential lake house experience - from the rustic deck overlooking the water to the wood-paneled interior decorated with local memorabilia, art and a giant salmon above the fireplace! The house was well stocked with all the necessities and was very comfortable for our family vacation. Highly recommended!

The camp and the outdoor areas were great! The sunsets were unreal. We were surprised that we had to climb over boulders to get to the water, but everything else was so awesome it made up for it. We LOVED camp and wish we were still there!!!

Lacey Reunion

Wonderful gathering place. This cottage is lovely and Bob & Janet are generous, thoughtful hosts. Everything is really week organized so that your stay is effortless. The location is a hidden gem close to biking, hiking, river kayaking and is right on the water. We swam every day. Every sunset was breathtaking and each day of our stay brought us a new adventure. We loved the two decks at different levels overlooking Lake Ontario.... one in the sun and one in the shade. The sun room has a full view of the lake as well. The cottage is tastefully decorated yet maintains a true cottage feel. Selkirk state park is minutes down the road. We loved hiking and biking on the well marked paths. Bob and Janet also included use of their kayaks. Our family kayaked the beautiful salmon river which is accessible from just behind their property. We visited the nearby flee market, the farmers market and had a great breakfast in the local town of Pulaski. We highly recommend this beautiful property!

Great house with fabulous lake views

We have a yearly family reunion vacation and this was the best ever. The house is very comfortable and extremely well equipped. Beds are comfortable and linens are provided along with a great variety of towels. The kitchen has everything you could want. My son cooked meals every night and had all the tools, pans and gadgets he needed. We really appreciated the spices and condiments plus having adequate dishes and silverware for all. The highlight of the house is the lake. The views from the house and decks are amazing, including sunsets right over the water. We swam almost every day. Be sure to bring water shoes since the beach and water entry are rocky. Sand starts farther out, but the entry is gradual and even my 3 year old granddaughter could stand comfortably. The only glitch to the house is the bathroom layout, making it necessary to go outside to get to the second bathroom if the larger one is occupied. We made it work and having only once shower really was not an issue, especially since we were swimming so much. We loved the house and were sorry when our week came to an end. Thanks Bob and Janet!

Exceptional Visit!

As repeat guests at this lake house location, we are again exceptionally happy and impressed with our stay. Cannot think of another place to spend our time while in the Lake Ontario region. The owners are a delight to work with and are genuinely concerned about the comfort of your stay. The house is clean, warm and cozy and not to mention the awesome view of Lake Ontario from the decks. Just a very special place to visit. :)

Lakeside perfection

We had a wonderful week here. I wanted my kids to experience some time on the Great Lakes like I did as a kid, and this was just right. The house is open and airy with tons of windows and a sunny enclosed porch, two levels of decks to sit on, plus a shady patio and grill area. Those who wanted sun or shade, breeze or not, could all find the perfect spot for themselves. There was always a nice breeze, and the sound of the waves was a constant backdrop to the day. The owners have stocked the house nicely with books, games, movies, etc., and have also though of useful little things like phone charging cords, sunscreen and bug spray, etc. We cooked every meal for a week between the kitchen and the grill - it's one of the nicest rental kitchens I've ever used as far as equipment and space. We also appreciated having the use of linens and towels - so much nicer than hauling our own back and forth! There are kayaks and a canoe available to use, and a choice between the big lake and a mellow river. We didn't end up fishing, but it's clearly a big part of the local scene. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and will likely try to return again. It was a fantastic spot for our family!

Fabulous location.

When we arrived it was the tail end of a huge storm. The wind was wild and the waves almost tsunami like. We spent hours on the screened in porch experiencing the storm and it was awesome. As the weather improved, we hung out on either of the two decks which provided unobstructed views of the lake. The house has everything you need, including lots of games to play, cable tv and the internet. We had a great time. And even without a beach (because of the recent deluge of rain) we went swimming every day. We had a great vacation. Martha

All the amenities for a comfortable stay - Highly recommended

The location and property are simply beautiful and in excellent condition. The rooms were comfortable (clean sheets, good mattresses, and ceiling fans in each bedroom). What really struck me was how well prepared the property was for guests, they have all the necessary amenities covered. We had several large family meals and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the necessities (pans, griddle, cutlery, coffee maker, etc, etc). We took the kayaks out on the river for a very nice morning ride. The washer and dryer were a godsend for a week up at the Lake, and there were plenty of clean towels. There were lots of board games, a variety of great movies and books, not to mention telescopes and binoculars. The owners were very kind and friendly and even dropped off some fresh kale, garlic, and parsley from their own garden. I grew up coming to this area, and I've been in many of the camps in this area and this one is in great condition and has been well maintained and updated. I highly recommend it.

Incredibly helpful owners!

Bob and Janet could not do enough to help, and were available from start to finish. Since they were only four miles away, they were able to help us whenever we needed them. They really gave us the full run of the place-- from boats to bicycles, everything was ours for the week. Lots of books, movies, and a well stocked house. We thoroughly enjoyed the lake every day. Our kids loved swimming, and the older members of our party loved kayaking and fishing in the rowboat. We even picked cherries at a nearby farm!

Spectacular Location with Spectacular Views!

Thank you so much for sharing your lake house with us. What a spectacular place with spectacular views! From the cozy feeling inside of the house, to the fresh air and views off of the decks......doesn't get much better than this! We all had a great week. It is amazing how we have visited this area for over 25 years, but we have never experienced a lakefront atmosphere, on Lake Ontario......just awesome. Thank you again for all of your kindness and we appreciate all you did for us. Hope to see you again.

About the host

Hosted by Bob Marino & Janet Gramza

Host profile image
Janet and I bought this property as a place to enjoy with family and friends and to share as a rental to help pay for it. We have been on the renter side of vacation homes for many years and use that experience to ensure our guests have everything they need for an awesome stay and will want to come back year after year.

Why they chose this property

Lake Ontario is a beautiful body of water -- it's been called "Cape Cod without the salt" and "Cape Cod without the sharks." It's not easily accessible to the general public, so the perfect rental is the way to go for private lakefront and a true beach getaway. As soon as you arrive, you immediately feel you are on vacation.

What makes this property unique

BEACH FRONT: Right on the beach, sometimes sandy, sometimes rocky, but there is always a sandy spot nearby to set up your chairs. The Lake bottom is always sandy and gently sloping, a perfect area for kids. There are sandbars and bigger kids can walk well out before the water is overhead.

BEDROOMS: There is a queen in the master, a double in the second bedroom and a bunk room with a pair of bunk beds, a double and a queen with plenty of room to spare! All the bedrooms have water views.
There is also a single bedroom and bath on the ground floor that's perfect for an elder who doesn't do stairs.

LIVING AREAS: Open floor plan, spacious kitchen stocked with everything you need except food. We try to keep a decent supply of condiments & spices. There is a Tops supermarket about 5 miles away. Sofas, chairs and a very large dining room table. Propane wood stove, and a beautiful enclosed sun porch, airtight, for windy or cool days so you can still enjoy incredible views of the lake or open all the windows on warm days to let in the breeze. Broadband wireless Internet, Stereo, CD, MP3 player, flat screen smart TV with Netflix, VCR/DVD player and a supply of movies.

OUTSIDE: Lots of places to hang out when you are not on the beach! 2-tiered deck with the lower deck right on the water. Several Adirondack chairs for lounging with family & friends. Picnic table that seats 8. Big brick patio and grill area with a propane gas grill.
