Neighborhood

Rural and lovely, these cottages are tucked into a quiet little cove on Lake Ontario. Surrounded by the peaceful, natural beauty of Beachwood State Park, we are blessed to be in a serene, rural setting. The area's main industry is fruit farming, with farm markets dotting the country roads. While the surroundings are beautifully tranquil, a short drive takes you to Sodus Point, NY, a charming small resort town. Enjoy the sandy public beach, lighthouse museum, marinas for boat rentals or rides, and waterfront dining—all easily accessible from our location.


Access

The entire home! And the park and surrounding area! Direct lakefront access


Space

We have another cottage right next door. If you're looking to rent more than one, let us know!

Your property sounds like a truly peaceful retreat! With its natural beauty and location on a small cove on Lake Ontario, it offers a serene atmosphere that's perfect for those seeking relaxation and outdoor adventures. The giant pines, open space, and nearby hikes into Maxwell Bay/Creek and Beachwood State Park make it an ideal spot for nature lovers.

Bald & Golden Eagles and Herons fly over the cove and nest in the state park and point. Take a short hike to the Beaver Dam. Great for kayaks and canoes along the edge and into Maxwell Creek area.

Tons of space, the cottage has a huge yard. It is directly on an easily accessible beachfront. The cove and Maxwell Bay/Creek make small craft boating, as well as swimming, lovely.

Located on Lake Ontario ½ mile from nearest paved road. Over 100 feet of beachfront in your front yard. State park lands in your back yard. Wild, natural, secluded and peaceful.

Sit on one of two decks under huge maple, hemlock, and aspen trees and gaze out at Lake Ontario. Swim, boat and fish from hundreds of feet of secluded beachfront. Or hike in the 'back yard'; hundreds of acres of woods and orchards wild state lands featuring nesting bald eagles and Beaver pond.

Launch or rent a power boat at the Sodus Bay Recreation Area (2 miles away), or take a scenic drive to Rochester or the beautiful Finger Lakes (about 30 miles). Fishermen will delight in the abundant Salmon, Steelhead, Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, and Trophy Lake Trout. Lake Ontario and Sodus Bay are renowned for prize-winning Bass, Walleye, and Perch. Birders will enjoy spotting Bald Eagles, Blue Herons, swans, and hummingbirds.


Transit

A car is necessary to visit this rural location. There are two or three gravel parking spots provided, with plenty of flat grass next to the gravel area to accommodate additional cars, boat trailers, etc. Our lakefront property features unusually large lots with ample space for a cottage.


Notes

The Sprongs Bluff area, a small cove nestled along Lake Ontario, is remote and beautiful. We love having a huge lot, stunning sunsets, and plenty of space. The small collection of cottages here is completely surrounded by NYS Forever Wild parkland.

The Ferry family has owned the cottage for nearly 40 years. It was a cherished retreat for our large and loving extended family, serving as Grandma and Grandpa's cottage until 2010, when they passed away and left it to my siblings and me. Eventually, we purchased two more cottages in the area, and we’ve been sharing them with one another—and now with you!
