About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Charming Cottage with Private Beach (sleeps 6, A/C, Wifi & Kayaks)

Positively charming couple's and families retreat less than 25 minutes from downtown Buffalo and 10 minutes from Sunset Bay Beach Club. Built in 1919 and partially remodeled. Enjoy the woods and views of Lake Erie cared for, for generations. The home has AC and appointed with modern luxuries (smart TVs, wifi) while capturing the charm of the early 1900's beach cottage. Eagles Nest on Lake Erie and surrounding grounds have been maintained for generations. From the owners family to yours they hope you enjoy the Secret Beach and the Bald Eagles that call the property home.

It is a true haven for sunsets, bird watching, bonfires, yard games and the beach!

Like all the families before and from the owners to yours we encourage you to learn about Lake Erie and all it has to offer.

Beautiful. The only problem was with shower/bath. It is very small and there was nothing to hold on to. It could be a real problem with anyone with a handicap.

A slice of heaven
What a wonderful experience on this secluded property. Low key, tranquil and solace are words I would use to describe this stay and premises. We watched eagles fly by daily. The cottage size was perfect, the beds were spacious, the kitchen was retro yet completely functional. Getting to the beach on the nature trail was brief and simple. The private beach was clean and full natural beauty with the shale cliff sides with sand, pebbles and more shale along the shoreline.

Great views, quiet space with an amazing porch and space to gather as family and friends.
Loved the porch! Spent each day at the beach and each night sharing a campfire. Plenty of access to necessities but cottage had the majority of items needed.

Rustic relaxing getaway
A small clean quaint and rustic lake house located in a beautiful lakeside setting. The sounds of Lake Erie , the breeze and privacy made for a relaxing getaway. My teenage boys enjoyed the 5 minute walk through the woods to their own little private beach like alcove by Lake Erie.

Loved the Charm but for the more mobile vacationer
From 4 ladies in their 60's...Quaint, rustic country cottage with a screened front porch - a beautiful and peaceful view of Lake Erie punctuated by bald eagles flying overhead. Beach access is a 3 minute walk away and down a flight of stairs. Clawfoot tub with freestanding shower would benefit from safety bars/rails. A single lane gravel road eventually becomes a mud track - so it is best to arrive before dark.

Fabulous Lake Erie views complete with the sounds of the waves and a gorgeous private sandy beach with beach chairs, umbrellas, and kayaks!! The cottage is very comfortable with AC in one bedroom. Lovely lake breezes on the front screened porch. Large grounds with fire pit with some wood provided. Very private grounds with lots of chairs for guests. We had an excellent week!!

Shorentined!!
This was a great place to get away from it all ....and even though it feels like we have all gotten away from everything and everyone these past few months - a different view gave us a new breath of fresh air and perspective on all we have to be grateful for....Lakeshore thunderstorms, the power of the mighty Erie, a little whiskey next to a lakeview fire. I loved that we were the last house on the lane - leaving the whole of the woods, baby deer and other flora and fauna to us - really felt like we were all alone....and I guess that is worth the money. Beds were comfortable - coffee on the screened in porch and plenty of places for folks to sit when an impromptu visit happened....Highly recommend waking up to the sound of the lake at this little gem ....

100 yr old cottage with mostly authentic interior in very good condition.
Great location on rocky bluffs overlooking Lake Erie. Short walk to private beach access with wide sandy and crystal clear swim area. Fully equipped with kayaks, beach furniture and floats. Wildlife and frequent eagle sightings. Kitchen and bathroom old style with one window AC in one bedroom only. Great sunsets, quiet and private., lots of land surrounding cabin.

Great place to stay on Lake Erie!
We had a great time staying at this awesome little cottage on Lake Erie. It's a beautiful, private wooded lake front property on the shores of Lake Erie -- perfect for a peaceful get away during the summer or fall months -- awesome views of the lake and totally private. We really enjoyed this cottage and will be back again in the future!
