Webster, New York
A secluded house nestled away from the public, this house is close to everything, but has the feel that the world is a mile away. Sit on the porch and watch the deer walking their trail , or listen to the creek babble in the distance. A mile north of the house is Lake Ontario with a large park and miles of trails, fishing pier and a boat launch nearby. Two miles to the south you will find another park with a walking trail, fishing and the expressway leading to Rochester or wine trails. The famous Wegman's Grocery Store and Webster shopping plaza is located right next to the expressway. The stone walls on this cottage are the original walls of an old barn which my Grandmother incorporated in building her home. At night it has been known to hear her rustling about in the kitchen. Have no fear !! Grandma is very loving and welcoming to all visitors !
Wendy was waiting at the cottage to greet us and explained special features to help become familiar with the property. Very friendly and patient at check in
Owners obviously take pride in EVERY detail. Peaceful setting, but close to everything. Very pet friendly. I hope to go back again!
Wendy and her sister (I apologize dont know first name) who met us at the home were very friendly and promply responded. We enjoyed our time and it was great location for us. We had 2 dogs with us who at first night didn't appreciate the deer that come so close but came to live in peace after the first full day and didn't bark too much at them which was great. Cute place more than enough room for others. Looked upstairs but didnt utilize it but is also nice piece of property. Love the family history. Highly recommend if looking for country setting close to many things. Thanks for hosting us!!
Stonewall Cottage was just as advertised. It was so beautiful with the stone walls and all the antiques. Everything was perfect for us. We stayed with our two dogs and the yard was perfect for walking them. The cottage is close to the lake and Webster's park with hiking trails that we enjoyed with our dogs.
It was the perfect location for a quiet family weekend trip. Stonewall Cottage is beautifully appointed, well-stocked, and very comfortable. Then there are all these awesome extras, like feeding the neighborhood deer, and the campfire that was ready to go for our use. Thumbs up from us!
The cottage was very charming. Loved the antiques and all the tributes to Wendy’s grandmother. Easy to get to shopping areas, restaurants and Lake Ontario We did a lot of biking and enjoyed the proximity to the lake and the Erie Canal trail. We used the cottage as our hub for attending the PGA Championship at Oak Hill, and it was an easy 20 minute drive to the course Very unique opportunity to enjoy nature as we fed and enjoyed the deer and many varieties of birds and even had a coyote walk through the yard one morning
Last year, we missed out on reserving Stonewall Cottage for our holiday trip to upstate NY. I was determined to keep that from happening again and so very glad I succeeded. Stonewall Cottage is a beautifully quaint place where you can simultaneously be by yourself yet among others. The outside photos in the listing gave me the feeling that it is quite a distance to the neighboring homes but it is not. Yet, we were snug as can be in what feels remote, quiet and away from everything. Wendy does all that is possible to make you feel welcome and at home including decorating for the holiday which we absolutely loved. You step back in time a bit with the antique furnishings which we also loved. The kitchen table is a work of art and history. She has thought of pretty much everything in terms of what she provides for your stay. Unlike other half-empty vacation places where they provide only the bare (and I mean bare) minimum for your comfort, Wendy does the opposite. From the refrigerator staples of eggs, milk and bread to the extra blankets in the living room, plenty of towels, toiletries, and thoughtful holiday treats that she provided, we felt special and at ease. There were even dog bowls for our puppies. It is an older structure but we had no problem achieving comfortable temperatures day or night. We prefer colder temps at night but during the day it was easy to heat the place - and we were there at a bitter cold point of December during the big blizzard just to the west in Buffalo. Wendy's communication is timely. She is easy to reach and attentive. One thing I would change would be access to outlets. In this day of high tech, most people need to charge a handful of electronics on a daily basis and we had to be creative in order be able to charge all of our devices. Other than that, Stonewall Cottage is for anyone who loves feeling cosy and well provided for. Thank you Wendy! We will definitely book this gem of a place again.
Rent Stonewall Cottage and you will find yourself in a secluded piece of nature and history. Wake up each morning greeted by deer, chipmunks, squirrels and birds of all sizes and colors. Enjoy morning coffee on the covered porch or around the fire pit on the surrounding acreage. The rustic interior is both cozy and roomy. When ready to explore the area, Lake Ontario and 800 acre Webster Park are just down the road. The cottage is very near grocery, shopping, restaurants, farmers’ market and Hwy 104, a main corridor to all parts near and far. Wendy is friendly and helpful, a perfect host. We highly recommend Stonewall Cottage as a unique holiday get-a-way.
Loved the location and property! Very nice and relaxing!
Loved the property, feeding the deer, relaxing on the front porch, and the overall charm. I think no AC would be an issue in the summer. The only other suggestion would be to replace the bed in the master. Barely big enough for two and not comfortable. With that being said, I would still stay again simply for how peaceful and relaxed I felt here! And Wendy is a great host and communicates quickly!!
This location was our very favorite of all the VRBOs we have stayed at. It was peaceful, quiet, relaxing and a great escape for my family. Deer watching on the front porch was the highlight of the trip. We would definitely like to come back.
Absolutely stunning cottage nestled in Webster. Very close to Webster park and Lake Ontario which was perfect for our dog. The village was near by which is very nice and has plenty of places to eat. The host is amazing and made sure we had everything we needed. By far the best VRBO stay we’ve had. We will surely be back!
This is a very one of a kind special place , location great ,WIFI great TV great , Owner very helpful no complaints
We enjoyed our stay. The cabin is close enough to everything yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. We had a great time.
Thoroughly enjoyed our 10 day stay while visiting family in the area. Cottage was relaxing and quiet with all the comforts and close to everything in a very tranquil setting. Wendy was a terrific host and the deer visits were amazing. A great vacation!
Everything was great!! Wendy made renting this property so easy. Property was extremely clean. Not only was the cottage itself beautiful, the property outdoors was as well. Wonderfully maintained.
We love having a place where we can comfortably invite over our relatives and cook for them.
