We had such a nice stay at this property. It was serene, which is just what we needed. The king-sized bed was very comfortable. The living room was great for hanging out with family and the kitchen was a perfect size for what we needed. I really appreciated the responsiveness of the hosts when we asked a question. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a great place to stay. It has a nice deck overlooking the river. The beds were comfortable and easily hosts 6-8 adults. Perfect for families with a game room in the basement. Clean rooms and a great kitchen and living room space.

Very friendly host. One problem arose but Britanee took care of it quickly and with as little disruption to our stay as possible. We stayed over Christmas and brought our own decorations only to find it already beautifully decorated. This was our second stay there and we plan to return for sure!

House was everything we needed. The heat that weekend was crazy. I messaged Britnee and told her about how hot it was and she quickly responded. She told me she would go buy a window ac and install it for us. I told her no that wasn’t necessary but she insisted and got it done. She was so accommodating I can’t say enough about it. Highly recommend this place if you plan to go Oswego.

THIS PLACE WAS GREAT!We had a wonderful experience at this property! The setting was absolutely beautiful, and we were warmly welcomed with a thoughtful basket of goodies and a comprehensive binder full of helpful information about the house, Wi-Fi, and local attractions.Each bedroom was beautifully appointed with comfortable beds and charming natural touches, like curtain rods made from wooden branches. The rooms were bright, cheerful, and equipped with air purifiers and plenty of hangers. Adding dressers would make it easier for guests to unpack fully during longer stays.The kitchen had the basic the essentials for preparing meals and we enjoy coffee on the deck. Although we didn’t have the chance to use the Blackstone grill, we look forward to trying it next time! The appliances were all brand new—many still had the protective plastic on them. Linens were soft and abundant, easily accessible from the hall closet. We also appreciated the thoughtful layout, where the first-floor bedrooms can be closed off with a hallway door, allowing night owls or early risers to enjoy TV without disturbing others.The basement added even more space, with an additional small bathroom and two beds in a separate room. The open area included a futon for relaxing, a TV, and fun games like shuffleboard and foosball. Laundry was also located down there.Overall, our stay was fantastic. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do in the area

Chris, thank you for your feedback. We apologize again for the issue with the WiFi as Spectrum did identify some equipment issues that we are resolving. They sent out technicians after the holiday weekend that replaced external equipment for us. We hope that supplying more ac window units helped keep the house cool enough for your stay.
