About this property

The House near Sylvan Beach

The best of both worlds!! 200 yards from town and 100 feet to beach. Come and enjoy all that is offered in Sylvan Beach from restaurants, to concerts, an old time amusement park, and the beautiful beaches. This is a 4 bedroom 1 and a half bath house with two beautiful porches. It is far enough out of town to be quieter with its own beach or you can be in the middle of all the action and return back for some peace and quiet. The water and all it s activities are right at your doorstep.

First stay of many more

We had an amazing time at this Sylvan Beach rental and are already planning to come back! The location is perfect—just a two-minute walk to a quiet, private beach. It was so nice to be that close and still have plenty of space to relax without the crowds.The house was spotlessly clean—and I’m not easy to impress when it comes to cleanliness. You can tell the owners take a lot of pride in the property.Our kids were thrilled to find toys available, which made settling in that much easier and more fun for them. The house is also dog-friendly, which was a huge plus for our family—we loved being able to bring our pup along for the vacation!Communication with the owners was excellent from start to finish. They were responsive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right for our stay.Highly recommend this home if you're looking for a peaceful, family- and pet-friendly getaway. We’ll definitely be returning!

Excellent Cottage

The property was exceptionally clean. Our family of 5 had no problem finding a sleeping location and had plenty of area to spread out then not at the beach. The beach is about a minute walk from the back door in an area that was quiet the entire week, including the 4th of July. Plenty of amenities were included that made our stay that much easier. We highly recommend this property.

Great vacation cottage

Absolute amazing experience. Our only concern was next door neighbor whom is an obvious permanent resident with very cluttered and messy surroundings, a sort of eye sore to the neighborhood.

Exceptional Rental at Lake Oneida

This property has everything needed for a quick getaway or a long-term stay. The owners paid special attention to cater to all types visitors. The house is very deceptive and looks like a small cottage, but when you walk in you will immediately see that it is much larger than it appears. There is enough room for all to be comfortable. Beds were comfortable and linens were clean :) As other reviewer‘s mentioned the half bath is a bit odd, as it connects between the kitchen and the staircase, but it’s fine and it’s available. The Internet was great, which was important because we were working remotely during our short stay. The little town of Vienna is very cute, however due to the pandemic , activities and shopping are limited.. we sat outside for dinner one night at Captain John’s and had a delicious meal that would compare to a five-star restaurant. There was a little deli within walking distance, and we found ourselves going to Walmart 15 minutes away, for a grocery trip. The private beach with very shallow water is a one minute walk! Kids floated on the lake for hours and had a blast! There is a state park less than 10 minutes away by car that is gorgeous and worth the seven dollar entrance fee. The Neighborhood feels safe and friendly! We would definitely come back for a future stay, knowing that the house was fully equipped and spotless! Thank you!

Family vacation

This was our second time renting this home. Had such a great time. The house has everything you need-kitchen well stocked with utensils and house has games/toys/books for your use. Also has a nice outdoor area. It’s a short walk to the beach and about 1mile to the amusement park. It’s an easy walk even with kids. Will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne or Aaron Gilliam

Host profile image
My husband and I are from outside Rochester. We bought our first property in Bridgeport and added this property in November. My husband is a retired carpenter and we enjoy updating and renting our houses to people from all over. I own my own business in Williamsville, near Buffalo and we just love to spend our spare time down on the lake.

Why they chose this property

We purchased a property in Bridgeport and fell in love with Oneida Lake. My husband retired so we decided to purchase another home for ourselves and to rent out. We now have a lakefront property in Bridgeport that we rent for those who want quiet and it has a dock and walk in stairs to the lake called Carpe Diem and we now have a summer house that is close to all the fun and activity of Sylvan Beach along with its own beach area. We fell in love with this house at first sight but continued to look and kept coming back to this comfortable home. So we bought it to use and share with renters.

What makes this property unique

Close to shops, attractions, restaurants, bars, beaches, and an amusement park. Close but not in the center of all the activity for those who want a break from the hustle and bustle but want to be within walking distance.
