Great location, but the hill to the water was a lot for me. Not a big deal for my daughter and her cousins. The exterior could use a pressure washer. The place is a lot bigger than is looks on the website though. Could be fully wheelchair accessible with a ramp. Kitchen cupboard contents were a little confusing. Had to buy a couple things to make it functional for our stay (left them for the next occupants).
We loved our stay!! Perfect off the main road, large yard for our extended family to come for a day of swimming, bbq, fishing and playing corn hole. Huge deck was perfect for sitting out enjoying sunset. We cooked outside on brick fire/grill area and then had a camp fire two of our nights. House location was a short ride from two different fishing charters for my 13 year old boys and husband. We all floated on tubes in the lake and just enjoyed. House was air conditioned which was greatly appreciated with the hot temperatures and humidity first couple of days. WE felt Mrs Mezzo truly wanted us to enjoy our stay. We will be back again!!!
This is a nice quiet property on the lake, with a nice dock to swim from (or watch the sunsets). The host met us on check-in to explain the property and show its features. I hadnât brought a hair dryer (and anyway am from England so my own wouldnât work on American electricity). I messaged the host who said there wasnât one but he immediately went out on a Sunday and bought a very nice one and delivered it to the house within a couple of hours. (So now there is a hair dryer!) Everything else you might need is included. The hosts were very pleasant and responsive.
Enjoyed our stay in the spacious accommodations with a large lawn and great views from the deck and living room windows. Check in and out process was super easy. Location is convenient (20 minutes or less to just about anything you need).
The house was very clean. The kitchen had everything a person would need, The living room has a big TV and a very soft couch which made it difficult to stay awake. There's a large porch where you can BBQ and it's just a short walk to the lake where there's a long dock to fish or just watch the sunset ot sunrise. It was a very plesant perfect vacation home. We'll will return
First off, the home owner is the best host I have ever had. He met me at the house, walked me through everything and was readily available at any moment. The house is perfectly situated and has everything you need to feel like you are at home. You have a view of the lake from just about every area of the home. Iâm looking forward to spending time again there next summer. Highly recommended.
We enjoyed our time at this relaxing, well-appointed vacation home right on Lake Oneida. There is a large yard and outdoor porch with beautiful view of the lake. The house was the perfect size for our family of 4 including 2 younger teens. Everything we needed to cook was provided. The TV and internet worked very well. The house could use a little TLC however that did not detract from our wonderful time.
Great potential but renovation is still in progress
First the good:
-Location is great. Right on the lake. Great view of sunsets. Nicely kept yard and dock.
-New Couch and Fridge.
-Host weâre super responsive with everything (check-in, questions, picking up supplies)
-high touch surfaces were all clean
-new bathroom with great shower
-beds were comfortable
-back deck was great although furniture needed some cleaning
-lake area was amazing and perfect for swimming and kayaking (we rented)
The not so good was that the place is in the middle of a renovations.
-Exposed outlets
-bricks, a metal beam, and a wall mirror were all laying on the ground
-pots and pans while clean were extremely old
-carpet upstairs was old and stained
-No basic condiments like salt and pepper.
-some of the blinds didnât work
-some low touch areas had not been cleaned in a long time
I was so impressed by the location, the great communication with the owner and property manager, and the lake itself. Even the neighbors were very friendly and helpful. We had a blast, and that is the most important thing because of the fond memories to be remembered. Thank you Maria and Josh!
This was our first time being at Oneida Lake and we will certainly be back.
Marie was very friendly and helpful
Beds were comfortable and in good shape as was all the furniture.
Deck was a great addition spacious and great shape.
Would definitely stay their again.
Beautiful sunsets and a short ride to Syracuse University
We really enjoyed out stay! We picked this spot for its location in relation to Syracuse University. Our oldest son was moving into the dorms and we wanted to stay for the week without being cramped in a hotel and forced to dine out for every meal. This was perfect. It was only about a 20 minute ride to campus. The house has been recently renovated so the bathroom, floors and furniture were clean and new. It also had a new mini split air conditioner that kept the temperature comfortable. We were lucky enough to get some beautiful weather and spent 2 full days at the house enjoying the lake. We cooked on the grill, spent lots of time on the dock, and floated in the water. It was private and peaceful. The sunsets were truly amazing every night. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
