True Lake Beachfront, Stunning Sunsets, Beach glass hunting

Come visit us at Steelhead Run offering panoramic views of the sunsets on Lake Erie. You will find this two-bedroom cottage to be quite comfortable offering all the utility of a larger home. We have another cottage next door, see VRBO #336835. When you arrive, you will find yourself nestled between Lake Erie and Chautauqua Creek on 7 forested acres. Both features can be accessed in less than a 200-foot walk from the cottage. On the beach you can spend time hunting for beach glass and driftwood, or take the half-mile walk along the beach to Barcelona Harbor area to enjoy a bit to eat, a cocktail, or even purchase a smoked fish at the fish market. Barcelona Harbor also offers a marina and a public launching facility to access Lake Erie. Do you want to go fishing? Take a charter out of the harbor or try and hit the world-renowned Steelhead fishery found in Chautauqua Creek. Don’t worry if Lake Erie is a little too rough on that day for boating. Make a trip to any one of the four inland lakes a short drive from the cottage. Chautauqua Lake is the largest and closest (5mi.) inland lake to the cottage. Chautauqua Lake offers many attractions available by boat that includes, The Chautauqua Institution, Midway Amusement Park, Long Point State Park, shopping, and numerous restaurant/bar establishments. There is truly something for everyone here.
Consider a wine tour if you’re looking to venture away from the lake for a bit. Lake Erie Wine Country, located in the largest grape-growing region east of the Rockies, extends roughly 45 miles from Silver Creek, New York to North East, Pennsylvania. At the end of 2011, it has become home to over 26 commercial and estate wineries. Other attractions within arm's reach include Niagara Falls, restaurants, ski resorts, snowmobile trails, nature trails, golf courses, inland lakes, shopping, and a casino, most in less than a 30-mile radius. Additionally, one can find cultural stimulation at Chautauqua Institution. Here you can enjoy their symphony, concerts, speaking venues and theater performances.

As a courtesy to the neighboring cottage, please respect the maximum number of guests in our cottages. We do understand that our guests want to share the experience of Steelhead Run with friends and family. Visitors are certainly welcome, but please limit their numbers to ensure that there is minimal disturbance to the neighbors.

If you are anticipating large group size, please consider reserving both cottages. We have successfully accommodated events such as small family gatherings, church retreats, and even professional photo shoots. Wedding venues are not allowed.

We are located ½ mile from the New York State Thruway (I-90), Exit 60. From here, you will find that it’s a quick ride to and from the Buffalo or Erie International Airports.

You won’t want to leave….

HFS quite possibly one of the best weekend experiences I’ve ever had. Perfect in every way. A lot of effort went into creating a most perfect environment to just hang out and unwind. 10/10 doesn’t even adequately convey how pleased I am with the cottage and view etc. amazing. Just amazing.

Winter Wonderland Getaway!

The location on Lake Erie was just what we had hoped for. Driftwood Cottage was perfect for my husband and I with plenty of space. It was warm, clean and inviting just as the photos showed. David, the host, was helpful as needed and quick to reply. Thank you and we would definitely stay again if we have the opportunity!
