It was perfect. Pictures are very much accurate. The only down side for us was a slope in land going to water. Brought my dad for a fishing trip. However with great neighbors and directions we were able to fine a great safe spot. ( he struggles with walking). The home is spacious and really decorated beautifully. Had everything we needed When we got there the pod coffee pot didn’t work and by next morning there was one delivered The area is wonderful. Easy walk to everything you need or want to do We are already planning next trip

Our second stay...place was remodeled in between stays. Everything you need to have a great stay on Oneida. Garage is the bomb!
5.0 / 10.0·Oct 2020
The property was beautiful, right on the canal with backyard view of the water and boats. The beach is about 2 blocks away, a quick 5-10 minute walk. Restaurants and ice cream stands within walking distance as well. We took advantage of the bikes the owner had at the property (they are a bit older and needed some air pumped into the tires but they worked well enough!) and rode about a 3 mile ride to a taphouse (Lake Oneida Brew Haus). It was a beautiful bike ride through the autumn leaves. Some restaurants were closed in town due to off-season but we preferred this as the town was not as saturated with tourists. The garage adds a nice hang out space as well with couches, a fridge, a dart board, bathroom, cornhole sets, and life size jenga. There was plenty to keep us occupied during the stay. We had 5 people and comfortably slept this number + more. There are 2 bedrooms - one with a door, one with a staircase leading into the room. There is a sun room with doors to separate from living room that one friend used as a bedroom (2 couches) and a large living room with a sectional sofa. Kitchen had all necessities for cooking and we cooked most meals in. The firepit was a nice addition as well. Kim was extremely responsive and helpful, giving a lot of pointers on nearby attractions to visit. Definitely recommend and would stay again!
