Enjoy a private swim-spa/hot tub, expansive outdoor space, and riverfront access with stunning sunsets. Peaceful yet centrally located, just minutes from Syracuse, Lake Ontario, golf, wineries, and the Finger Lakes region. Perfect for families and friend groups looking to have memorable get-togethers. The Space: Located on the Oswego River in the heart of the Village of Phoenix which is located by Lock 1, the first Lock heading toward Lake Ontario through the Erie Canal System. Build a bonfire, go for a swim in the swim spa - summer or winter, fish, enjoy the garden where we grow bird friendly flowers, enjoy watching and feeding the birds, ducks and squirrels, or watch the bald eagles soar and hunt the river, or do nothing at all. You will have the best views of the sunset from the deck or sitting by the rivers edge. đź“Ť Prime Location & Travel Times \- Lake Ontario (Oswego): 30–35 min \- Syracuse Airport (SYR): 22 min \- Downtown Syracuse & Destiny USA: 24 min \- Battle Island Golf Course: 20–25 min \- Finger Lakes Wine Region: 60–90 min \- Local Wineries (Strigo, Lakeland, Ashley Lynn): 15–25 min \- Lysander Ice Arena: 15–20 min 🏡 The Space \- Accommodations for up to 10 guests Bedroom 1 - King Bed Bedroom 2 - Queen Bed Bedroom 3 - Queen Bed Bedroom 4 - Full Size Bed Shark Shack - Full Size Bed \- Cozy living room with smart TV & Wi-Fi \- Chef's kitchen with ample space for group cooking and dining \- Comfortable bedrooms with air conditioning & blackout blinds. \- Outdoor swim-spa with swim side and hot tub side (not a swimming pool) perfect for summer relaxation and fun \- Expansive patio & deck overlooking the river, ideal for watching the sunset \- Direct private waterfront access for kayaking, fishing, or peaceful morning coffee \- Self-check-in and ample driveway parking for multiple vehicles Outdoor Activities & Local Attractions \- Walk to Lock 1 Park & Riverwalk for scenic strolls and community events \- Private kayaking and fishing right from the backyard \- Nearby hiking trails including Beaver Lake Nature Center & Green Lakes State Park \- Family-friendly activities like Fort Ontario Historic Site and Syracuse Zoo Guest Access: The guests will have access to entire house and outdoor property, except for the garage, basement, attic and garage. \*\* The upstairs front balcony (door is in the king bedroom).

Aug 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is a very unique property. It is very well appointed and great property to relax with friends. The small downtown and local distillery with amazing food and drink is within a short walk. The swim spa is great, even if you can't figure out the controls. The layout and details of the spaces are interesting yet groovy. The coffee bar was an unexpected treat. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a house with character and that loves amazing bathrooms. One note...there are cameras on many of the exterior areas of the house which is not in the listing. If you have young kids that you don't want on camera, this is something to consider. ![relaxing view for your morning coffee or soak](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0d88df61-9209-4610-8d81-6e9b40701e7b-1755050425337.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![coffee anyone?](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d518632f-6ef9-4995-8e13-0304569fbb33-1755050425236.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Love the portraits](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98206eb4-20ca-4e35-a585-792e417af763-1755050425185.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![downstairs bathroom](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/41ee4a5c-fd55-4ead-b9bd-ec9a920c5f61-1755050425236.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Darin S.

This property is clearly loved and taken care of. From the bamboo mattress covers to the high quality pool towels to the massive 3ft x 3ft oven- this property is stunning. Not a speck of dust anywhere. Meticulously washed bed sheets and comforters. Plenty of outdoor, brand new seating. The bathrooms are all recently renovated and updated. Our host, Tina, was an excellent communicator. The dipping pool was a comfortable 91 degrees. The outdoor space is so serene on the River. We had so much space, everyone had their own bed. The windows are all new and have perfect screens so you can open the windows without bugs getting inside and enjoy the breeze off the water while cooking or watching the expansive TV.10 min to the airport and 20 min to our daughter at Syracuse University. We will definitely be back! ##### Staci S. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025
