Cottage vacation rentals in Western

Everything about this cottage is perfect. The host thoughtfully provided everything for a great stay. The kitchen is fully equipped—just bring your food. Views from the living room and bedrooms are breathtaking, overlooking the lake with beach-like waves. If it rains, you have board games, vinyls, video games, and a big TV with streaming services by a cozy fireplace and charming decor. Outside, the beach is right by the deck—perfect for morning coffee and peaceful moments. There’s a spa, BBQ, and a fire pit for romantic sunsets. Kayaks are available in the basement; bring your fishing gear (and permit). This is our favorite place so far. It’s walking distance to a waterfront trail and Presqu’ile Park amazing hiking trails, places to picnic, etc by the lake. You’re close to shops and great diners like Counter in Trenton and Whistling Duck in Brighton. This last-minute trip turned into an amazing find. Huge thanks to Jess, our host! We can’t wait to be back.

A lovely, cozy cottage perfect for a couple’s getaway. Homey decor, very comfortable bed, decent water pressure and a wonderful little kitchen with pans and utensils needed for home cooked meals. We had a wonderful time feeling at home and comfortable here. The host is friendly and responsive and gave very easy and clear instructions for arrival and departure. Would definitely stay here again.

My family had a wonderful stay in Danny and Travis' house. The interior was clean, beautiful, and matched the photos in the listing. The yard was lovely and quiet. We felt away from it all, while still being close to great hiking trails and dining options. Danny and Travis had very clear instructions for how to get in touch with them if we needed anything, but it wasn't necessary. It's clear they put a lot of thought and care into making the process easy for their guests, and we didn't have any issues. The only thing I will caveat is that the house is located off a gravel road, which was quite bumpy when we visited (mid-April). This wasn't an issue for us, but would be a good thing for potential guests to keep in mind.

Really cool spot, enjoyed the walk to the lake and the hot tub. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay there again

Gorgeous house, super clean and tidy inside, with comfy and modern furniture. The hot tub was fantastic, make sure you turn off the lights so you can see the stars! The only other heads up I’ll give is that the way to get in is through the back entrance! We tried the front door for like 5 minutes until the electronic lock blocked us from continuing haha. Great location to get away from the city for a weekend and go hiking. Lots of great trails really close by.

absolutely picture perfect cottage right on the lake. lots of bedrooms and living room space. couldn't ask for a better view from the hot tub. Heather was provided all the details to ensure check-in was smooth. Everything was organized and labeled so we didn't feel intimidated by the size of the place and was able to feel at home from the 1st day. we didn't bring our kids this time but would love to come back with little ones as there are gates to the deck/hot tub area + everything kids would need already in the house.

This place is such a gem. Attention to detail and comfort was incredible. Our girls’ weekend was perfection. The sauna is a must, the view from the hot tub is gorgeous (even in an icestorm), the pottery for coffee was stunning, the beds were soooo comfortable, loads of towels for all of our spa activities, heated floors and a stellar Woodstove. The only problem is that with all of these amenities, you don’t want to leave to explore the area… that’s why next time we will book a longer stay! Thank you Ken and Rachel for this little slice of heaven.

Very cozy retreat. Loved the jacuzzi and stone grill and outdoor area. Nice bathroom and beds! Bilen was helpful and communicative! Would definitely stay again.

Adorable cottage absolutely ideal for unplugging and relaxing

House was great location, very comfortable- Kimberlie was awesome, thanks for your kindness. Lauren N

Darla’s cottage was such a sweet spot for a weekend getaway. Super cozy, clean, and peaceful—exactly what we were looking for. It felt tucked away in the woods but still really easy to get to, and just a few minutes down the road from Rough Cut Brewing, which was a big plus. We loved being able to grab some beers, then come back and relax inside. Darla was a great host—friendly, but gave us plenty of space. Would totally stay again next time we’re in the area!

Thank you so much for the perfect getaway stay! Everything was as described and more. Perfect sleeps were had, kitchen was well equipped for all the late night creations, comfy reading spots throughout the home. Comfort levels were absolutely met! We enjoyed it immensely and can't wait to stay again soon.

Brian and Melissa’s place is lovely. Very clean. Furniture and beds extremely comfortable and great location across from the Lake and about 5-7 miles from the cute town of Skaneatles. We were there on a rainy night but did take the short walk across the street to the dock which was beautiful. It’s a nice place even on a cold rainy night with the electric fireplace and comfortable couches! I’m sure it would be a great summer spot too!

Highly recommend this cottage! Beautiful views right across the street from the lake. Comfortable beds, 1.5 baths, it was perfect for a girls weekend getaway with 5 girls. (2 shared a room, one slept on a futon in the living room) but plenty of space and comfortable! The first night our heat wasn’t working, I messaged Catherine and she came over right away. She was helpful and got the heat working and super prompt. Definitely want to go back!!!

Debra and Mike were great hosts and have created a very warm, inviting and comfortable place for those seeking to explore the Catskills. It's a home away from home! There's a grill available which we made great use of, a fire pit to enjoy nature and star gazing, and their two dogs Luna and Roxy are extremely friendly. Highly recommend their place!

We had a very nice stay, quiet neighborhood, convenient location, great restaurants within driving distance, and especially appreciated the pet friendly home.

We spent New Year’s at Leah’s place, and it was absolutely amazing. Her guest house is so cozy, and she’s an incredible hostess. Not to mention, her place is dog-friendly, which made it even better! It was such a memorable way to ring in the new year.

Second stay here, Great as usual. Great hosts, very attentive. Couldn’t recommend more.

Lovely space - just like the pictures. A little tricky to find the first time, but its location is part of what makes it so peaceful. The cottage was perfect for our needs and the hot tub was delightful. David answered all our inquiries promptly and even let us check in early when I asked. We had some issues with the internet service, but that was clearly weather-related. And although he was unable to resolve the issue before we checked out, David was very responsive and reached out to the internet company right away and made every effort to get it fixed.

The cottage was the perfect size for our family of four. The resort had great amenities for young kids (pool, playground, etc) and is just a 10 min drive from Sandbanks provincial park. Our wonderful host was very responsive and kindly organized our parking permits at Sandbanks. We would definitely return!

It's a very cute and peaceful place to stay. It's surrounded by lots of foliage to ensure privacy, and I love all the small touches around the place. I would definitely love to come back in the summertime to experience all the trails and conservation areas.

Second time coming staying at Sam’s. Just as magical and peaceful as before. Can’t wait to come again next year.

Our family of 4 really enjoyed our stay during the last week of August! Some of our favourite parts of the place include: the canoes/kayaks that were available to use at our leisure, the check-in process being seamless, the essentials being provided (all kitchen supplies, beach towels, shower supplies), the other amenities (board games, BBQ). The place itself is quite beautiful. The dock with the chairs, the fire pit (even though we did not use) and the solarium were all stunning. I would just mention that it is a bit smaller of a place inside, so did find it a bit cozy and tight in the rooms. Also, the place is supplied with quite a loud window AC so sometimes it would get a bit loud/warm in the place. However, we would still give the place a 5/5 all things considered.

We only stayed for one night to break our journey up as we were heading to Niagara Falls , absolutely gorgeous location a step away from the lake with breathtaking scenery , perfect to sit out on the patio enjoying the scenery and having a drink and chill , beds were very comfortable we both slept well , welcome basket was a nice touch , we used the kitchen and made our own dinner and table was gorgeous to sit at , would recommend to anyone who enjoys relaxing and great views
