The best of both worlds!! 200 yards from town and 100 feet to beach. Come and enjoy all that is offered in Sylvan Beach from restaurants, to concerts, an old time amusement park, and the beautiful beaches. This is a 4 bedroom 1 and a half bath house with two beautiful porches. It is far enough out of town to be quieter with its own beach or you can be in the middle of all the action and return back for some peace and quiet. The water and all it s activities are right at your doorstep.

The property was exceptionally clean. Our family of 5 had no problem finding a sleeping location and had plenty of area to spread out then not at the beach. The beach is about a minute walk from the back door in an area that was quiet the entire week, including the 4th of July. Plenty of amenities were included that made our stay that much easier. We highly recommend this property.
This was our second time renting this home. Had such a great time. The house has everything you need-kitchen well stocked with utensils and house has games/toys/books for your use. Also has a nice outdoor area. It’s a short walk to the beach and about 1mile to the amusement park. It’s an easy walk even with kids. Will definitely be back.
We have been coming to this property for several years in a row. We love it here! It fits our family well and is close to everything! The owners are friendly and always there if you have a question!
This cottage was amazing. You really just need to bring clothes and a smile. Every amenity was provided. Very clean and welcoming. Close to the beach and a peaceful neighborhood.
This property is so close to the water, walking distance to town, clean and beautifully decorated with a beach theme. I definitely want to stay in this cottage again! We hope to be back next year! Thank you!
This was a great stay! The house was clean and spacious and not far from anything ☺️ This is one of the bigger houses we stayed in so had to room to cook and hang out. Would reccomend
We have stayed at this property for several years now and love how convenient it is to everything and yet it can be quiet and private too! We will continue to come back!
Great house in quiet, convenient location right by the beach
This house has everything you need to enjoy some quiet and relaxing days by the beach. Sylvan beach is a few steps away from the front door! And there are two convenience stores just a few blocks away, too, in case you need to buy anything.
The house was clean, very organized, and equipped for cooking group meals. The hosts have done a great job anticipating the needs of their guests; they laid out all the information and house rules in a helpful binder right at the entrance. The back porch and the outdoor area are really nice for group meals.
Overall, we were very pleased with our stay. We would definitely book again if we come back to Sylvan Beach!
We spent a long Fall weekend and enjoyed the area! There are some nice parks to explore and the history of the area is very interesting. The VRBO platform is not working well though. We never did get access to our rental agreement (always an error for the file) and each time we tried to communicate with this property owner or others for different rentals, we got a message that the property was no longer available on VRBO and will not be covered by the Book with Confidence Guarantee. Not the owners fault in any way that VRBO has a problem!
The lake house was wonderful. It was clean and welcoming. The location is perfect for enjoying the beach and for walks into town. We enjoyed sitting outside and watching the gorgeous sunsets. Great place for family getaway!
It was myself and children including two infants and the layout was perfect so the older children could be upstairs and I downstairs so that neither disturbed the other. Beach was perfect so my 1 year old could walk out a ways and I also didn't have to worry about the older children as the water was only knee high for what seemed like forever. Everything needed was there and we are very grateful we found this location. Neighbors were all friendly even with my children riding their bikes and scooters up and down the short road back and forth to the beach. Perfect for myself and my crew.
Love this little cottage by the lake, close to everything and spotless clean!

About the host
Hosted by Suzanne or Aaron Gilliam
My husband and I are from outside Rochester. We bought our first property in Bridgeport and added this property in November. My husband is a retired carpenter and we enjoy updating and renting our houses to people from all over. I own my own business in Williamsville, near Buffalo and we just love to spend our spare time down on the lake.
Why they chose this property
We purchased a property in Bridgeport and fell in love with Oneida Lake. My husband retired so we decided to purchase another home for ourselves and to rent out. We now have a lakefront property in Bridgeport that we rent for those who want quiet and it has a dock and walk in stairs to the lake called Carpe Diem and we now have a summer house that is close to all the fun and activity of Sylvan Beach along with its own beach area. We fell in love with this house at first sight but continued to look and kept coming back to this comfortable home. So we bought it to use and share with renters.
What makes this property unique
Close to shops, attractions, restaurants, bars, beaches, and an amusement park. Close but not in the center of all the activity for those who want a break from the hustle and bustle but want to be within walking distance.
