Beachfront vacation rentals in Oneida Lake

The view from this place is absolutely stunning. It's a rustic house, with lots and lots of steps, but the waterfront location makes it 100% worth it. It's only a short drive into downtown Ithaca and to Cornell's campus. It was a little too chilly to take advantage of the water sports provided, but we appreciated that it was there! Just a tip to future guests - I would recommend bringing your own coffee grounds (this is not provided, but filters are) and buying extra drinking water before your stay as the jug provided was not enough for 2 people.

This was our fifth year coming up to Camp David. I don't even look for another place because we know that this is our "home away from home" for a few super relaxing days. Everything you need is there. Very quiet and private. Always a great escape here. And Mike is extremely responsive and accommodating. Can't wait until next year.

The location is great—right by the lake with stunning views. The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The host was responsive and made sure our stay was comfortable. Highly recommend this spot for a peaceful getaway

The cabin is located on Oneida Lake! Everyone was really friendly! There's lots of stuff for families to do... They have swingsets, soccer nets, basketball hoops, and lots of balls.

We stayed here for my daughter’s graduation from Syracuse. Although a drive from the city, it was a great choice for hanging out away from the busyness of Syracuse. We really enjoyed our time here and it was a good set up for my ILs who had access to the downstairs bedroom and bathroom.

We had a great stay! The location is beautiful and the house was just as described. It was great having enough room to all stay in one place to celebrate my daughter graduating from Cornell University School of Veterinary Medicine. And, our dog was also allowed to come!

My experience was excellent from the reservation to checkout. It’s a beautiful location and the home was perfect. It was better than I could’ve imagined. The description and pictures don’t do the property or cabin/cottage justice. It was very clean and we felt right at home. I needed a peaceful weekend away and it did not disappoint! Suzanne was very responsive and helpful. Great place! We’ve already talked about going back for a longer stay.

Brian was excellent in communication and answering questions about his place and the surrounding area, prior to our departure. Unfortunately we were staying there for a business trip, and our client cancelled the trip two days before we left. The reason was a lake effect snowstorm that was going to hit Syracuse and surrounding areas the day we were to drive up to Altmar, NY from the Philadelphia region. At the time, the weather teams in Philadelphia were telling us that we could get hit on our way back to Philly with snow that would be 12" - 15", which didn't happen. Our client is going to reschedule the trip hopefully in the near future. My crew and I tend to book Brian's place again when it's rescheduled. We wanted to give Brian 5 stars on everything, because there really isn't a place in the 'ratings' area that says 'we had to cancel the trip'. I'm sure once we get up there for the reschedule that we'll be giving a 5 star rating regardless.

Perfect location on the lake. Beautiful cabin with plenty of space for all four of us adults. I would 100% recommend this location especially in the summer when you can use the kayaks (it was a little cold this time of year for us). Host was quick to respond and super helpful! Thank you!!!

Seldom, do you find a place where time stands still, the host is warm and welcoming and the location is beyond beautiful. This was our stay at Diane's cottage on the lake. We hiked local parks, kayaked the lake, enjoyed wonderful food, shopped and took in the view. Diane and her extended family were open, warm and delightful. Our regret is we didn't stay longer. Should we ever return, we will definitely stay at the cottage. Our many thanks and blessings to Diane and her family for making our stay remarkable.

Great location, cute and comfortable space. Thank you!

Absolutely gorgeous location on the lake, small yet spacious place perfect for a lake side get away! Walkway to a dock and lots to do within the area and only 1 hour away from Watkins Glen! My best advice, drink the wine they make as it is phenomenal, cheers!

We had an amazing stay at Nick's Lakefront cabin, it was clean, spacious, and has plenty of amenities that made our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. The lake is beautiful and clear, we had a blast swimming and kayaking. It's also conveniently close to shops. Wifi is also fast. Nick is very responsive and was always available to answer our questions. We had a lot of fun :).

Our stay at Sylvan Beach was absolutely perfect, thanks to an incredible host who truly thought of every detail. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely taken care of – the place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we could possibly need (and things we didn’t even know we’d need!). Beach towels, air fryer, pool table, workout equipment, and board games for rainy afternoons – nothing was overlooked. It’s clear the host genuinely cares about their guests’ comfort and went above and beyond to make the stay special. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again – highly recommended!

This home exceeded our expectations! We had a beautiful view of the lake from the wrap around deck and a great little beach area to enjoy the waterfront. I would highly recommend staying here, Terry was an excellent host and responded to our questions right away. We will definitely be coming back to visit soon.

Better than expected! Very spacious. Great place for a long weekend getaway with our children and grandchildren. Everything was clean, beach was absolutely perfect for the grandchildren. Felt like home, Nice restaurants all within a short drive. Host was extremely helpful and responded within minutes. We'll be back for sure!

The house is beautifully renovated and very high tech!!! The kitchen is a dream. Loved the furniture and fire pit on the deck. Convenient to Ithaca and many restaurants/ hikes. Master bed very comfortable. Love that each bedroom has its own bathroom. We all took turns with the massage chair every night - it was a big hit! Lorena was very kind and responsive. Would definitely stay again!

Thank you for our wonderful stay this weekend. Your place is the quintessential lake cottage. Everything we needed was supplied and at our fingertips, without being overrun with “stuff.” Well-maintained, clean, and comfortable. It was a cool, rainy weekend and we took full advantage of the bedroom fireplaces and extra blankets! Would love to come back to enjoy summer-time at your place. Thank you!

The finger lakes was our destination for a full getaway weekend. We were thrilled to find this property on Lake Skaneateles, our favorite of the finger lakes! We loved the Barndominium from the first moment we entered it! Amazing views! The one big room is comfy, spacious, well equipped, and nicely decorated. We loved having lake access and kayaks to use right on the water!! The pool table was fun to have evenings and on the 1 rainy day. Beds and furniture were comfy, and the bathroom shower was especially spacious. Would we come back? Absolutely!! Thanks for a beautiful stay!!

Can’t say enough about First Light II - the place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed! And the view! Mario and Sarah Jeannie were wonderful hosts - great communication and so thoughtful, bringing over a bottle of wine and meeting to show us all the available outdoor equipment. If you are ever in Ithaca, I would definitely stay here! It was perfect for us for our daughter’s graduation!

We had a great time. The location and view on the lake were just amazing!

We stayed with Daniel & Renata over the 4th of July. It was such a great time. The property is right on the water. We docked our boat there. They had kayaks and a swim platform and a volleyball net set up. We used the grill one night. The fireplace another night. The place was clean and we were all able to fit comfortably. We were even able to check in early. The communication was quick and easy - one night there was rain forecasted and we asked if we could shelter our motorcycle in the game room and within a minute we got a response that it would be ok! Fabulous hosts and a great property. We look forward to coming back in the future!

Jacci is definitely a super host! She met us to help check in & show us around which was super helpful. The home looked exactly as described. Jacci checked in to make sure we were doing great & went above & beyond to make our stay great. She is what every host should be! Cheers!

Liam’s place is a rustic lake house with plenty of space to spread out. Bedding was gleaming white clean. Had our weather been good, it would have been a great spot on the lake! Back yard is large for activities. A short drive away is Quarry Ridge Winery and Aurora Brewing Company- Highly recommend both! Liam was very responsive and super helpful!
