Peaceful Port Bay retreat for fall or holiday stay | House in Wolcott
4 Bedroom House in Wolcott
You'll find a peaceful setting at this comfortable home with pastoral views, steps from Port Bay. Don’t miss fall color and area-wide apple tasting in October! Year-round, take in Chimney Bluffs and Sterling Nature Center’s beauty, enjoy beer, cider, and wine tasting, and explore regional antiquing. Summer brings kayaking, boating, birds, and an abundance of area produce and farm goods. Winter guests enjoy quiet solitude, winter walks, skiing, and ice fishing. There's something to enjoy in every season!
When you are not relaxing in the natural setting of this family-sized home or spending time on Port Bay, there are plenty of area attractions close by. Take in the beauty of Chimney Bluffs and Sterling Nature Center, enjoy beer, cider, and wine tasting, take in the scent of the apple blossoms, and savor the area's plentiful roadside produce stands. Or, venture to the nearby busier lake areas of Sodus Bay and Fairhaven, or out to Rochester, Syracuse, or Finger Lakes, 1 hour away. It's also the perfect stay for Sterling's Renaissance Faire!
The property itself is stunning, with fruit trees, gardens, a pond, and 15 acres of woods. There is a walking path around the pond and a short trail cut into the woods. There is no shortage of nature to see, with regular sightings of deer, birds of all kinds, ducks, geese, and other wildlife (and while no foxes have been sighted, we have found fox tracks by the pond). The sunsets and sunrises are amazing, both at the property and at the 5-minute drive to the lake!
Inside, you'll find a comfortable living room with a smart TV, a dining room with settings for 8, and a full kitchen, stocked with ample dishes and cooking supplies, including some basic spices. There are full bathrooms both upstairs and downstairs. The home also has first floor laundry, with detergent provided.
The four bedrooms, all upstairs, have plenty of bedding options for your group's needs. There are 2 bedrooms with queen beds, one bedroom with 2 twin XL beds which can be converted to a king bed on request, and the fourth bedroom with a twin-over-full bunk bed, plus another twin bed. All bedrooms have dressers, closets, and hangers.
Property Note: this is a 20 acre, rural property and while we engage in proactive pest control, bugs (and the occasional mouse) are a part of country living, and unfortunately cannot be completely prevented. Refunds will not be given for such encounters. It is also recommended to be cautious and not stray too far from the house at night.
**I (the host) live on site in a smaller house in the back of the property, about .1 mile further up the driveway. There are significant trees and distance separating the main house from my smaller house which can be seen from the aerial shot. I fully respect your privacy and whatever level of interaction you desire!
