The lakefront is truly impressive! This historic home boasts over 160 feet of private level lakefront. The fishing is amazing right off of the dock! We have four kayaks, two paddle boards and a mooring buoy available for your enjoyment!

Brand new to the rental market 6500 SF private lakefront estate on Owasco Lake Reviews
Submit your reviewFinger Lakes Luxury RentalsAverage rating: 18 reviewsMar 5, 2021Wonderful StayStayed here during the kids February break. Beautiful property and very clean house. Our group had a great time and would love to go back in the summer to be able to utilize the lake!
Jan 25, 2021House was absolutely beautiful and plenty of room for entire family. Can’t wait to come back!
Nov 17, 2020Stunning...Views, location accommodations, amenities and service! Utilized for work headquarters for virtual conference. While the days were busy, the home and location provided provide a place for relaxation and rejuvenation. Debbie and Rick were amazingly accommodating and helpful - truly going above and beyond with assistance to travel back to airport on Sunday evening! Shout out to Brittany for the ride! Definitely hope to return another time - absolutely beautiful!
Nov 16, 2020Above ExpectationsThis home is fantastic. The quality of architecture, design, and amenities is incredible. Debbie and Rick respond immediately and go over and above to ensure the guest experience is exceptional. The Samuel Adams house is enormous with large spaces for gathering and plenty of beautiful private paces. The construction is top quality – solid wood doors, USB outlets everywhere, comfortable beds, heated floors in bathrooms, well-stocked kitchen with tons of cabinets, and enclosed, peaceful porches. There is a babbling brook that runs under a section of the home – incredibly quiet. We were at The Samuel Adams house on Wide Waters Lane to run a virtual conference, and the entire event was flawless – 100% uptime on the internet, a lovely home on a beautiful lake. It was November – we thoroughly enjoyed the fireplaces and fire pit. The house is large and allows space for social distancing inside and out. Debbie, the owner (and Rick), was there to help with anything we needed – especially when we discovered it is tough to get an Uber to go to the airport. If you are flying in, Uber and Lyft are readily available at the airport but not at the house. A rental car is a good idea for to/from the airport. Instacart delivers to the house from multiple stores in Auburn, so there is no reason to leave the property during your stay. We highly recommend this home and would be 100% confident that any property Debbie and Rick have is as wonderfully appointed as the Samuel Adams House.
Oct 17, 2020We had a lovely fall weekend at the Samuel Adams House. The check-in process was seamless and Debbie was super responsive and helpful. The house was exactly as described (newly renovated and very clean) and our large family enjoyed ALL of the living spaces, playing pool, fishing, kayaking, campfire and simply sitting on the dock and enjoying the lake and beautiful fall foliage. We'll be back!
Oct 9, 2020A group of family and friends get together, at a beautiful lake front home (too cold to swim). Place is great, in a beautiful part of the country, got to see the autumn colors. Would highly recommend.
Oct 2, 2020Wide water rentals house is a paradise home. The location is perfect, super peaceful, serene and beautiful! The house is beautiful with tons of rooms and entertainment. I normally am pretty picky about the rentals, and I can say, I don't even have one negative feedback. It was 6 of us using the house from Thursday-Sunday, and had 2 more couples join us for the weekend (because the house has so many rooms!). The kitchen, living room, billiards room etc was just perfect for all of us - we cooked a lot, hung out near the fire place for many hours, up front by the water and played many rounds of pool while sipping on wine and watching the beautiful view of lake Owasco.
The weather was perfect for kayaking as well. We didn't have to bring any life jackets from home, the garage was fully stocked with everything you needed. Our another favorite feature was the heated floors in the bathroom! so much so that I now want heated floors in my own bathroom! If you are the person who likes to stay at a place that is nicer than your own in comfort/amenities, this house wont let you down.
Debbie/Amy/Brett were super helpful and responsive whenever we had any question. Great customer service! We will be back again next year for sure!Aug 17, 2020Beautiful lake viewsOur mixed group of adults and kids had a wonderful stay at this property. We utilized all of the kayaks and paddle boards provided. The lake views were amazing. We’re glad we rented a pontoon boat for the week because it allowed us to really experience all that Lake Owasco had to offer. The house was very spacious and spotless upon arrival.
Aug 10, 2020Rest and RelaxationAs soon as we arrived to this house, I felt relaxed and knew it would be a great vacation week.
The house is squeaky clean, beautiful and has everything you need (and more). Comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen, tons of space to spread out and the lake is steps away. My son
had a great time fishing (he’s 10). When he would get tired of fishing, kayaking
and swimming, he would play pool. He never played before this vacation, but became quite
a pool shark by the end of week. I would definitely go back again - tomorrow if I could!Jul 11, 2020Perfect Family GetawayThis is our third family reunion at this property. It seems to get better each time. Everything is provided from pool cues to Kayaks. Very private. Beautiful location.
