Creek Side Cottage with Lake Views, Lake Access, Dock and Secluded Yard
Comfortable three bedroom cottage that is ideal for a family get-away. We have a lakefront parcel and dock to accommodate boaters and easy launching of kayaks! The secluded backyard and abundance of trees is also ideal for fall colors.
Our location is also only 3.5 miles from downtown Jamestown and attractions such as the Lucille Ball museum.
The property consists of 2 homes built in the early 1900s. The back house is where we keep the kayaks, grill, fire pit and other outdoor items. Grill your meals from the back house porch while watching boats enter and exit the southern tip of Lake Chautauqua. The back house is included as part of the regular rental.
In the main house, the 2 primary bedrooms each have a queen bed, and the 3rd bedroom has a twin as well as a twin size trundle bed. All 3 bedrooms are on the second floor. The fold out couch and futon in the living room can accommodate additional guests.
The kitchen is very spacious and has plenty of counter space. And the property itself is fairly private with fencing along 2 sides and the creek bordering the other 2.
Kayak rental is also available. You can make use of our 6 available kayaks throughout the duration of your stay for a $100 fee, which can be added to the booking.
The lakefront property is basically just across the street and maybe 30 yards from the driveway. This is an ideal spot for fishing, boating, relaxing and viewing sunsets from our dock. The water depth at the dock can go down to about 27" though, so it may not be able to accomodate larger boats.

I spent 3 October nights with my family including two kids, age 11 and 14. The leaves were beautiful and it was a very peaceful stay. We ate most meals in the house which had everything we needed in the kitchen. Bedrooms were comfortable. Great access to the lake where we were able to enjoy the northern lights. Cute enclosed porch where I could enjoy my morning coffee or a glass of wine at night. Would definitely stay again.

My teenage daughters and I rented this property for a couple nights to get away and relax before school starting up again. Everything was even better then described. The outdoor area with picnic table and fire pit is where we spent most of our time! Beautiful and serene!!

We had a wonderful stay! Erik was very accomodating and responsive when we messaged with questions. The house was listed accurately and was clean upon arrival. We had a great time on the lake with our boat and would love to come back in the future!

We had a nice stay . Loved the property and especially the boathouse. Had a few issues with neighbors who were working on their cottage — noise — and a few times they blocked the entrance with their cars. This cottage reminded me of a cottage from a bygone era

5 nights with our adults daughters where memories of water fun, board games, barbecue, and sight seeing were had this week at Spring Creek Cottage. We are super flexible and a chill family and had 5 adults staying at the cottage. LOVED the boat house to play games in, the rocking chairs around the campfire were so comfy, the lawn was mowed, towels placed in every bed, kitchen was clean and had everything needed. It is a short walk to the dock and is perfect for bringing along a boat(which we didn't have so we rented rhe kayaks and canoe!). Perfect time spent with our family!

We had a wonderful and restful week at this cottage. Kitchen was well stocked beyond what we could have asked for. Plenty of paper products including tissues which as a nice touch. We enjoyed playing some of the games provided during the evenings and the property owner Erik was quick to respond when we had a question. The beds are a bit worn but we made due. If vacationers have mobility issues the stairs will be challenging to navigate. Thankful for our time away and even our 20 something son enjoyed his few days with us and commented on the amenities.

Erik was great to work with and went out of his way to help us gain 2 more kayaks for our travelers. The house is in a great spot near the lake and it was a great time

We enjoyed our stay. We were only at the cottage for 3 nights so we basically just slept there & ate breakfast there. The kitchen was well equipped and clean. The "Lake" decorations were a very nice touch -- they made it feel like home.

Me and a few friends stayed to watch the eclipse. We loved the location - close enough to town to get essentials but in a quiet neighborhood. We watched the eclipse sunset over the lake and it was so beautiful! We loved watching the birds on the property. Our only qualm was the bathroom didn't have an exhaust fan so it got a little humid

We had a great time on our first trip to Lake Chautauqua. This property came with several kayaks of varying size; kids could fish in the creek or off the dock; great size yard for Cornhole, spike ball, and more. My husband loved the dock for his fishing boat. Lots of extras provided: charcoal and lighter fluid for the grill, games, life jackets, seasonings, foil, plastic baggies, extra toilet paper and paper towels. We didn’t spend much time inside other than to sleep, but the cottage is rustic feeling.
