Escape to this cozy waterfront cottage tucked into a quiet, secluded bay on beautiful Oneida Lake. Ideal for couples or families of up to four with small children, Cardinal Cottage offers a comfortable, well-equipped setting for a relaxing lake getaway.

Enjoy swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and water sports right from the property’s 100-foot aluminum dock. Guests may bring one boat; smaller boats can tie up at the dock in approximately two feet of water, while a mooring farther out provides about four feet of depth. The property also includes an on-site kayak, canoe, small boat launch, and parking for up to two vehicles plus one small boat trailer.

Make the most of lakefront living with a propane Blackstone 36-inch flat-top griddle, a lakeside deck with dining for four and an umbrella, and lounge chairs for taking in spectacular sunsets. A portable fish-filleting table is also available.

Inside, the cottage has two bedrooms: one with a queen bed and another with twin bunk beds plus a sit/stand desk overlooking the lake—perfect for remote work. Quality linens are provided. The well-stocked kitchen includes counter seating for three, a Keurig, blender, and Crock-Pot. Other amenities include Wi-Fi, a smart TV for streaming, county water, a propane heater, electric stove and oven, refrigerator/freezer, and a small bathroom with a single shower.

Wooden Gazebo/Deck

Guests have exclusive use of the enclosed lakeside gazebo on the adjacent property; it is not shared with neighbors. With wraparound lake views, a queen sleeper futon inside, and outdoor lounge chairs, it is a lovely spot to relax and unwind.

Parking

A maximum of two cars may park in the driveway, with space for one small boat trailer on the adjacent lawn.
