About this property

Waters Edge

Waters Edge is a custom house built specifically for entertaining guests for a truly memorable vacation with family or friends.
The house is a open floor plan that flows from the beautiful interior to the amazing exterior and surrounding waterfront.
I created this home for a truly wonderful guest experience. This home is what I have learned during the last 10 years with owning 5 other vacation rentals and managing other properties and I placed it all into this magnificent home.
The home consists of 5,000 sqft of interior space and 1200 sqft of cover porch space along with 800 sqft of sun deck area with a heated pool, plus 1200 sqft of brick patio with a hot tub.

Pool is normally opened mid May and closes in September, all depends on the weather.
Hot Tub is open year round.

*** Listing price is for 8 guests in 4 of the bedrooms. These bedrooms include: First Floor Master, Two Basement Bedrooms and The Loft Bedroom.

There’s an additional fee of $1000 during peak season while the pool is open and $600 in off season when pool is closed. If you choose to have all 7 bedrooms and want to bring more than 8 guests, which brings your total guest amount to 16. The house and property is designed for a maximum occupancy of 16 including any guests that you may have stop over during the day.
Please let me know if you need all 7 bedrooms even if you only have 8 guests. So an additional payment request can be taken care of through the site. The fee is a one time charge for the length of your stay.

We absolutely loved staying here. Brian greeted us and made us feel right at home. Everything was beautiful decorated, the bed were amazing, bathrooms stunning, and a kitchen any chef would love. The outdoor was so peaceful and had all sorts of outdoor games that everyone enjoyed. Evening were perfect sitting out on the decks and simply enjoying the beautiful sunsets. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great communication with our host, from booking to check-in and departure. House is beautiful and spacious: huge living, dining and outdoor entertaining areas. Big, well-equipped kitchen and enough bed/bathrooms to easily accommodate large groups (we were 14). On top of that, a pool, hot tub, and stunning view over the Susquehanna River, which is just a short stroll away. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Water’s Edge!

Beautiful house and property that my extended family consisting of 14 people (ranging from ages 8 to 81) thoroughly enjoyed. Just bring your own groceries and the kitchen is stocked with everything else anyone could need. My brother-in-law brought his own kayaks and body boards so we could explore the river and tiny island across from the property. Brian was a great host; always available to answer all of our questions (and we had a lot) about the house and things to do in the area.

Great place for our annual family reunion!

For the third year in a row we enjoyed our family time in this beautiful and spacious home. The pool and hot tub are always a big hit. We rented a kayak one day which was fun. Due to some downpours of rain before and during our stay, the ground was a bit soggier than previous years where our grandkids liked to explore along the river.

If I could give the property 1,000 stars I would! The pictures and descriptions do not do it justice! The house was full of luxuries and thoughtful touches! Two stoves, two dishwashers, commercial refrigerator and freezer! Beautifully appointed! Sooooo comfortable! Immaculate! We stayed with my husband’s 5 siblings and their spouses! Everyone had their own space and zero complaints! The common spaces were more than able to accommodate us all! Family dinners were special events and conversations on the deck created forever memories! We highly recommend the host and the property!

This is our second trip to Waters Edge. The house has everything and the host is awesome. We had a couple very minor issues while staying there (ice machine was leaking, and a beep noise was coming from the pool filter) and he responded immediately to get them taken care of. There are plenty of nice touches that you don't see at all rental properties - complimentary coffee and wine, all linens, and the above mentioned ice machine. We hope to be back, as long as our schedules allow it!

All I can say is WOW

This home is more than beautiful! The layout was so open that even with 15 of us we were not crowded at all. The view off the balcony is serene and a beautiful way to start the day with coffee and family. Oh-and the table-all of us together at each dinner was a joy. We all loved the pool, outdoor games and fire pit. Not one moment of boredom for anyone-ages 1-65. Brian is a top notch host for sure! Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with our family!!! I see another stay at this property in our future!!!!

Brian was an exemplary host -- there should be a way to give him 6 stars. The property was outstanding in every way; absolutely perfect for our family reunion (four families; 7 adults, 4 children, 1 infant). The kids loved it and so did the adults. There are at least four master bedrooms; we've been staying at vrbos for more than a dozen years and never had such luxurious accommodations for everyone. Huge dining room table with room for all of us; ditto for the living room for games and discussions. Equipped with tons of thoughtful amenities: pool toys, outdoor speakers, mini disc golf course, volleyball court, tetherball, swings and slide, two dish washers, two refrigerators... we could just go on and on. Oh yeah, forgot the pool table. And it's right on the water - great views in the morning and sunsets in the evening. Bald eagles, herons, rabbits. Train tracks cross the property so we did need to be careful -- but the trains were one more attraction for the kids.
