1 Bedroom Cottage in Homer

Located on Spafford Landing (also known as Wickwire Point), our Waterfall Cottage overlooks a beautiful and private waterfall. The pristine waters of Skaneateles Lake are just 100 yards down the driveway, with great swimming, fishing and boating.
Our beach has unobstructed and dramatic views of the lake, and from our location on the east side of the lake, we enjoy spectacular sunsets, often around a bonfire.
Our 45-acre property abuts a 300-acre nature preserve with great hiking trails.
Cottage has 1 bedroom with double bed. Sleeping loft has three twin beds. The loft is great for children aged 5 and up (steep ladder might be a challenge for younger kids). 1 bathroom with shower. Wood stove (firewood included) and electric heaters for cool evenings. No TV, but WiFi is included.
Lakefront has level beach. We have a canoe and kayak (with paddles and life jackets). Sturdy rowboat with 6HP outboard (gas included) available for additional fee of $100. Mooring available if you have a boat.
The kitchen has everything but a dishwasher -- full size fridge, electric stove/oven, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker. Even a Cuisenart. Plenty of pots/pans/dishes, etc.
Dining table seats 4 comfortably, or 6 in a pinch. We also have an outside table/chairs for dinners al fresco. Propane grill on site (gas included).
We're a nice canoe/kayak ride from "Staghorn Point", where kids can find a Skaneateles treasure: staghorns -- actually, horn coral from when the area was under the ocean. Should you want to leave the lake, there are wineries, museums and other attractions in the area.
Our family summered in the Waterfall Cottage while our children were growing up, and we have wonderful memories. After we built a year-round house on the beach, we started renting out the Waterfall cottage. Most of our guests have stayed with us every summer for several years.

Summary: The property we stayed at was very nice and clean. It everything we needed and then some. We even had access to a fresh herb garden! The waterfall sounded like rain and the background noise was very soothing to sleep. The beach's water was very clean. Our communication and interactions with the owner could not be beat. He helped us every step along the way with accommodating items we needed, helping us and answering our questions. I wholeheartedly recommend this rental to anyone else looking for a nice nature getaway with all the amenities.

Summary: Just an awesome location if you are looking to disconnect and unwind on a really excellent property at the south end of the lake. This was our second consecutive summer renting from John and Robin, and they are some of the nicest people and best hosts you will ever find. Highly recommend.

Summary: Very cute cottage with a very relaxing waterfall right in the backyard! I loved sitting outside catching up on some summer reading! Just what a teacher needed after a long school year! The lake was absolutely beautiful and fishing was awesome! Our hosts were very helpful and kind. Our kids had a great time and it was a good to have our family time.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at the Waterfall cottage. It was so relaxing to have the sight and sound of the waterfall right outside of the cottage. The cottage was cozy and clean and has a well equipped kitchen. The owners are nearby and eager to answer any questions and provide suggestions for things to do and see. A short walk to the lake for swimming, boating and fishing in the crystal clear water of Skaneatleles Lake. Lots of hiking opportunities right outside of the cottage. Downtown Skaneateles is a 15 minute drive and has a nice selection of restaurants. Highly recommend. Look forward to getting back there soon.

Summary: We had such a nice time at the cottage. Such a peaceful, lovely property that allowed us to really relax. John and Robin are such friendly hosts. We loved Fishing from the dock, swimming in the lake and taking boat rides to search for fossils.

Summary: John and Robin are very hospitable, friendly, and helpful. I can appreciate their love for the area as it is quite beautiful. The cottage we stayed in is adorable and met all our needs. We enjoyed our stay very much. The waterfall in our backyard was spectacular and hearing its continuous flow was very peaceful. The short walk down to the lake was very enjoyable and swimming in the lake is ofcourse the best. I have never found more clean and soothing water as that of lake Skaneateles. And the view from our beach was awesome!

Summary: Robin and John are absolutely wonderful hosts, and two of the nicest people you will ever meet. My wife and I rented the waterfall cottage for a week with our 3 boys (ages 13/11/6), and we had an absolute blast. The property is 100% as described in the listing. The cabin is very clean, and the peaceful sound of the waterfall takes modern everyday stresses away. We took advantage of the fabulous hiking trails, swam every day, and caught over a dozen smallmouth bass up and down the Spafford coastline. We’d highly recommend this property, and will, very likely, rent the space again next summer
