★Listing Space★
Our home is on a private road allowing guests to enjoy their stay without the disturbances of busy Route 13. Our property is situated right near Verona Beach State Park, Oneida Lake, has a fenced in yard and access to a Sylvan Beach just a 0.5 mile walk down the road. The home is large enough for families of all sizes to enjoy.

There is an open concept throughout the downstairs. From the front entry you have access to the living room, dining room, the kitchen as well as 1st floor bath and bedroom. The 1st floor hosts also a full bathroom and tub for small children. The second floor is completed with two king size master bedrooms that each have large closet's and a shared spacious master bathroom.

The entire private home is all yours! The Verona Beach house is suitable for up to 12 guests looking to relax near the water or enjoy the surrounding attractions such as Syracuse, Adirondacks, Finger Lakes, local wineries and so much more!

A few common questions to help you decide if "Blue Heron Way" is a good fit for your getaway:

How far is the Lake House from Syracuse?

Not far at all! Within a 30 minute drive you and your family will be able to enjoy Syracuse NY with all of it's history and excellent restaurants. If you are coming in the fall or winter try to catch a Syracuse Orange football or Basketball game with a 40 minute drive to the famous Carrier Dome!


Can we cook at the house? BBQ outside?

Absolutely! The kitchen is fully equipped with plates, bowls, utensils, wine glasses, cups, pots, pans and much more. We have a kuerig machine with pods as well :) We would love for you to enjoy the brand-new appliances if you’re looking for a home cooked meal! The refrigerator is equipped with an ice maker as well and additional ice cube trays. We also have a gas BBQ grill for you to enjoy as well. We will do our best to keep the propane filled and if it runs low please let us know right away and we will give you access to the reserve tank. We also provide a toaster and microwave.



Is it suitable for children?

We have had several families and friends stay at our home. With the private property there is lots of room for outdoor activities for the kids. As with all houses situated on near Oneida Lake please always be cautious of the kiddos getting near the water or outside the confines of the property. The interior of the home has large open spaces for the children to play and make themselves at home. Please be considerate of the stairs. We provide a high chair for dining purposes as well and an infant bath in the bathroom closets.



Is there any games or other activities at the house?

You bet! We have a plethora of board games and more. Outside includes a BBQ set up! We also have a fire pit set up where the guests can hang around and make s'mores if they so choose :) As always, take care with the kiddos around the open fire.


What about the Internet situation?

Great news, we have 200 MBPS spectrum internet which you can stream all of your favorite shows to our new flat screen TV's!


Are pets allowed?

Yes, we do allow pets under certain restrictions! We are proud owners of two rescue puppies ourselves and understand the desire to have your furbabies on vacation with you. Please mention that you would like to bring a pet with you before booking to answer a few brief questions to see if your particular pet fits our requirements. Any dogs must be leashed at all times outside and cleaned up after immediately. There is a $75 pet cleaning fee and additional fees may apply for any damages or pet rules broken.

The property was clean, fully stocked, and perfect for a weekend away with our kiddos. The beds were super comfortable, the hosts supplied baby gates to help contain the toddler and provided recommendations of places to visit. We cannot wait to visit again

Lots of beds. Super comfortable. Stairs are a bit steep if you have older people with you. We spent most of our time at turning stone resort. An easy drive from the house.

We stayed with family (10 in total) over Memorial day weekend at the Blue Heron in Sylvan Beach, NY. The house was very clean, fully stocked and had plenty of sleeping options for everyone. The owner has done a nice job with this house - it's nice looking, very well thought out, comfortable and really exceeded our expectations. The owner/property manager were very welcoming and very easy to work with. The property itself is tucked away off of the main drag but within walking distance to the beach, park, amusements, restaurants and shops. The outside of the house is fenced in with a grill, fire pit and plenty of seating where we spent most of our time enjoying the beautiful weather, talking with friendly passerbyers and telling lies by the fire pit in the evenings. We highly recommend this place and would absolutely go back!

This place is a fantastic place to get away. I appreciated that the house was sparkling clean and modern. It felt better than a home away from home. It felt more like hotel living vs staying in “someone else's home.” Our family LOVED it. We do plan on returning. Below is a list of the PROs and CONs. (Keep in mind that the pros are a bit nit-picky, but I decided to comment on it here so give a full honest review.) PROs: - LOCATION. It is within walking distance of the beach. - The beds and linens were VERY comfortable. - Generous sized rooms. - All of the TVs had streaming capability. - Wonderful outdoor space. Comfortable outdoor furniture. Wonderful fire pit. CONs: -The stairs are shallower and steeper than regulation stairs. - We had access to the garage, but the garage was packed full where we couldn’t fit our stroller in there. - Dishware is sub-par. A lot if mix and max pots, pans, utensils etc. (This is big for me because I do not like to eat out. I prefer cooking at home so I can eat healthy and save money.) - Limited cleaning tools available, I could only find a vacuum. Even while on vacation I like to keep things neat and tidy. I could only find a vacuum stuffed in the garage that looked and worked like it was at the end of its life.

We booked this place so we could bring our dog with us on a casino trip. The house was clean, decorated nicely, and very comfy. There were only two of us but the house is laid our perfectly for a larger group. The kitchen was stocked with all appliances, plates and utensils. Pretty much anything you need is there! There was even a drink chiller fridge. The house is walking distance from the beach and a very short drive from Verona State Park which was a perfect place to take the dog on a long walk. We’d definitely stay here again.
