My family loved staying at A Stone's Throw Lodge! I will be honest. When we first drove up, I though there was no way the house would fit the 8 of us comfortably. Upon entering, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw just how much space was inside. There was enough space in the living room and basement area to spread out along with in the bedrooms. We were able to have dinner at the dinner table that was huge. Then when we sat outside to have a drink and s'mores by the fire, it was so relaxing. Just what we needed after a day on Lake Ontario. I really hope we are able to visit again next year on our annual fishing trip!! I highly recommend A Stone's Throw Lodge!!

Expected Different

Andrea was a good communicator and seemed to be a kind person. She came out as soon as she could to change the dirty sheets on one of the twin beds that had hair and grass in them. Going into this rental was very different than any other place I’ve rented. The floors were not vacuumed or swept well. I honestly think that all of our sheets weren’t clean. This rental is really for guys who want to fish and don’t care too much about the clean sheets, cobwebs, clean floors, dust, or mice. The pictures to show this rental property are older and a bit outdated, so the rental is more weathered and used. The frying pans were not usable. They were very scratched teflon type pans. There was not a night stand for a lot of the beds. There was also not a lot of places to put your bag or suitcase. We had to put most of our things on the floor. The pictures on line are not accurate. I am not giving this review to be mean. I think it’s important that everyone understands what the rental looks like currently. I will say the air conditioning worked very well. And as long as you didn’t clean dishes or run the washing machine there was plenty of hot water for all 7 of us to shower. This site would not let me attach anymore than 8 pictures but dropped 2 of them.

Winter Weekend Family Getaway

Our family of 6 adults and 2 teens stayed for a long weekend for our annual snowmobiling trip. We chose A Stone’s Throw Lodge because of the trail access. Unfortunately with the lack of snow this year we did not have the opportunity to ride but the house was large enough to allow for games and puzzles at the table while others watched movies. The house was spotless and beds comfortable. It was nice to be able to bring our dog as well. Planning on renting again.

About the host

Host profile image
I am a local girl, born and raised in Brewerton, NY, on Oneida Lake. I have traveled all around the country, from the Carolinas to Alaska, while working in the Hospitality industry.
It has been a dream of mine to own my own little piece of Heaven and I want to share it with all of you. I love to ride and fish myself, so what not a better place to own than a house right off of the ATV and Snowmobiling trails and walking distance to the Salmon River.
I strive to exceed all of my guests expectations and I hope that you will visit us on this journey of making A Stone's Throw Lodge bigger and better every season!

What makes this property unique

A stone's throw away from world class fishing on the Salmon River and right off of the Oswego County Snowmobile and ATV trails.
