About this property

Log Cabin on Lake Ontario

This beautiful 2 bedroom (sleeps six comfortably) and 1.5 bath log cabin sits about 15 yards off Lake Ontario. The interior is rustic in design but has everything you need to enjoy some peace and quiet. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is a laundry room with washer and dryer. The full bath has been recently updated to include a walk-in shower. The shower has 6 body sprayers, a hand held wand sprayer and an overhead shower recessed into the ceiling. You can set the shower head to a rainfall or waterfall setting or both. Built in LED lights are hydro powered and change color based on the water temperature. Really relaxing. Towels and linens are also provided. A wood stove for those chilly nights or sit in Adirondack style chairs by the outdoor fire pit at sunset. The back porch is equipped with brand new teak chairs and rockers, a propane fire pit/table, a brand new Weber BBQ gas grill and there are chaise lounge chairs for tanning. Outdoor games include bocce ball and corn-hole (day or night time), plus there are some board games, giant jenga, and giant connect 4 for those rainy days. There is a huge picnic table (seats 10-12) right by the water, room for everyone to sit at and enjoy dinner and take in the sunset.

Even better than expected!

We stayed at Mark's cabin for a week the beginning of September. The cabin was fantastic- clean and comfortable. Located only a couple feet from Lake Ontario, the view was spectacular. Mark checked in on us a few times via text to make sure everything was good - great host! Looking forward to next visit.

Be aware, no a/c

Beautiful hunting cabin and views of the big lake. Cobwebs on the deck at pup & person level and the grill was left for us to clean vs use, but other than that, cabin was clean. We ended up leaving after 20 hours because of the heat & humidity; no a/c and no access to the water made it more than uncomfortable. I didnt see a/c listed in the amenities and at my detriment assumed there would be (my error). That said, the 2 nights we were booked it was 95% humidity and mid 80's temperature outside. Inside there were several fans which kept the temperature at 80 on 1st floor. Unfortunately beds were upstairs, where it was approximately 88. We got no sleep the first night. And with a storm expected thru our 2nd day with higher humidity and temperatures, we took a drive to cool off and ultimately decided it wouldnt be worth another night. Especially without access to the beautiful water in front of us to try and cool off. So we opted to head home. Finding out that same afternoon that the power was knocked out by the storm, which would have left us even without the fans. Communication with the owner was prompt, and i did let him know right away we had covered the deck furniture but forgot the buckles since we werent decided on leaving at the time they were covered. however i didnt get the sense he was interested in our experience, only the booking, so we are not likely to return.

Oh man what a view!

From our arrival to our time to leave we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful log home. Sitting in the sun, late afternoon fires with the sunset, it was all great. There are a number of nearby things to do with a little bit of travel. Would definitely go back...and Mark was a very gracious host!

Everything I could have hoped for!

The owner Mark was absolutely fantastic about communication leading up to and during our stay, which was greatly appreciated since this was our first time renting through Vrbo. The cabin was beautiful, clean, and has a gorgeous view of the lake and sunset. Nearby neighbors are friendly. Access to the water can be a minor challenge, but once in, the bottom is sandy and the water great! I cannot speak highly enough of this experience and the quality and beautify of the property.

Nothing better on lake Ontario

The pictures don't do it justice. You need to see this amazing home in person for yourself! I couldn't have found better accommodations for a two night getaway. Overall working with Mark through this process couldn't have been any easier. Communication was spot on, any questions I had Mark was very prompt and getting back to me. Looking forward to the next opportunity to stay at this amazing cabin and work with Mark again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Mark Fiorini

Host profile image
I grew up in a small town nearby and got my degree from the College of Environmental Science & Forestry at Syracuse University. I have a passion for the outdoors and I truly love spending time at the cabin, there's something about the calming effect of the lake. I currently own a small environmental consulting firm.

Why they chose this property

I always wanted a place on the water but didn't want to drive far to get there. This is only 30 minutes from my house and 45 minutes to work. The location was perfect for me.

What makes this property unique

The sunsets are second to none, I often race to the cabin from work just to open a nice bottle of wine and catch the sunset. I love the character of the cabin and the detail in craftsmanship, I'm sure you will as well.
