Place was cozy and clean with beautiful views. Our family had a lovely time enjoying the lake and using the home to eat most meals. Some outdated plumbing fixtures that caused a problem but the owner was very responsive. Would consider staying here again!

Great location. Walked to Brownies for ice cream multiple times, Also, walked to the boat house for dinner and drinks:) Would totally stay again. The only thing I would suggest a clean up of the patio area before guest stay. All the furniture outside was covered in spider webs and bird poop. But besides that we had a great stay!

Perfect for families

It would be difficult to imagine a better home base for our stay in Western NY. We were (2) families of four (8 people total) Including tweens and infants. The home is larger (and nicer) than the photos would indicate. Plenty of private and communal living space. The location on the lake is exceptional. Beds are comfortable. Host is very friendly and attentive. We have nothing but nice things to say! Hopeful we will have the opportunity to stay again. Thank you for everything!

Wonderful Stay

Everything about our stay was wonderful. Property is very clean and well appointed and extremely comfortable. As cottage owners ourselves, we appreciate a well kept property and strive to leave any rented units well kept upon our departure. We will be re-booking for future visits to the area.

Waterfront with great sunrise and sunset views

Well kept, easy to find host. Great location. Sits next to water treatment plant, but has no impact on beauty of the property. Lakefront bedroom remains fairly warm despite central AC. I would definitely stay here again!

This was the perfect location in the cutest town! Truly a hidden gem that we will visit again! We came for a Bills game but also visited Niagara Falls and Six Flags. It's totally worth the drive to escape the city life and stay in this quaint little town! The home is older, but that's part of its charm. Truly a cozy home with the best views of the water!

Wilson Fishing Trip

The location was great with easy access to the fishing boats. Beautiful lake front view. The only issue we had was we had 3 adult men and the third bedroom only had bunk beds in it. House was well stocked with all the necessities. We enjoyed our stay, and we would stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly Bolos

Host profile image
I grew up in a small neighboring town just outside Niagara Falls and left the area to attend and eventually graduate from SUNY Geneseo. I relocated to Dallas, TX for a career opportunity but have returned to the area every summer to take in its beauty and many local attractions. Now married with small children of my own, our family sought out and purchased this vacation property. While we reside in Dallas, local relatives manage this property.

Why they chose this property

We sought out this property because of its personal history with my family. It is the same property I would walk past with my dad on our way from the ice cream shop out to the end of the pier. We would wonder what it would be like to own and live in such a beautiful house with such a beautiful view. Western New York and this particular region hold so much natural beauty and provide so many affordable healthy activities that my husband and I want our children to share in these experiences. We share this home with you as a special place to vacation, reconnect with family and create special memories year after year.

What makes this property unique

The location is perfect! Coming from Dallas, TX it is wonderful to enter a relaxing small town atmosphere yet still have access to several activities, attractions, restaurants and shops as you would in a city. It is located across the street from a bustling boathouse, quaint upscale restaurant, and several small shops. Need some fresh vegetables? Drive down the road and stop at one of the many roadside stands whose farmers still accept payment by the honor system. We appreciate this home's proximity to Canada as well as the neighboring U.S. cities such as Lockport, Lewiston, Niagara Falls & Buffalo (quick access to Canada can be made via the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge).
