About the host

Hosted by Brian Frey

Host profile image
Originally from Virginia, we now call Florida home, but our hearts are deeply connected to our second home in Oswego, NY. With over 32 years in professional show business and the past decade spent as a dedicated Realtor, I’ve developed a true passion for homes—especially those with history, character, and a story to tell.

Historic homes have always spoken to me, and when we found our place in Oswego, we knew it was something special. We've poured our time, energy, and resources into restoring and furnishing this home with care—striving to create a warm, welcoming space that offers a true 5-star experience. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to make our guests feel comfortable, inspired, and at home.

Being an Airbnb host is a joy and a privilege. It allows us to share a piece of something we love with travelers from all over the world. It’s incredibly rewarding to know we’re providing a space where people can relax, reconnect, and create lasting memories—whether they're discovering Oswego for the first time or returning to a favorite spot.
We’re genuinely excited to welcome guests into our home and introduce them to Oswego—a city full of lakeside beauty, rich history, and warm community spirit. We hope you’ll fall in love with the home and the area just as we have.

Why they chose this property

Welcome to Oswego, New York—a hidden gem perched on the shores of Lake Ontario and straddling the scenic Oswego River. This vibrant waterfront city beautifully blends historic charm with modern convenience, offering visitors a truly unique and enriching experience. From stunning sunsets over the lake to the rich architectural heritage downtown, Oswego is a place where the past and present coexist in perfect harmony.

Here, you’ll experience all four true seasons in their full glory—crisp, colorful autumns, snow-kissed winters perfect for cozy nights or skiing nearby, blooming springs filled with festivals and farmers markets, and breezy summers ideal for boating, beach days, and lakeside dining.

There’s so much to explore: stroll through historic Fort Ontario, catch a performance at the Oswego Music Hall, or visit the H. Lee White Maritime Museum to dive into the city’s nautical legacy. And if you're up for a short drive, you'll find scenic wine trails, hiking in the Adirondacks, and the cultural buzz of Syracuse just under an hour away.
Our neighborhood is a picture of classic charm—tree-lined streets, well-kept homes, and friendly neighbors who greet you with a smile. It’s peaceful yet central, making it the perfect home base to enjoy all that Oswego and the surrounding region have to offer.

Whether you're here for relaxation, adventure, or a little of both, Oswego warmly welcomes you
