The lake views are spectacular! There is lots of bird life to enjoy, as well as watching the boaters and beachcombers. The house is situated on a bike path. You can walk or bike on the path with the two vintage bicycles provided, through the public park. There is also a bird sanctuary beside the park that you can walk the wooded paths on. You can hunt beach glass right out your front door as well as bring a chair onto the beach and enjoy the sun, water, sand and a good book! The house is close to local restaurants. It is a short mile to the City Pier where there are free live bands that perform every Thursday night in the summer months.
Along with the lighthouse, there are many other interesting places to visit. The newly opened National Comedy Center is located in Jamestown, a 30 minute drive from the house. There is also Chautauqua Institution that has many cultural events in the summer. Roger Tory Peterson Institute is also located in Jamestown, and a longer drive, but still close is Niagara Falls. We are also located in the middle of the wine trail that runs along Route 5 from NY to PA!
