About this property

Salmon River waterfront home on 10 acres at Ellis Cove

This is what they’re saying: “What a beautiful home!” “Amazing experience here. The amenities were incredible, the house beautiful - we couldn’t have asked for a better place ... for a family reunion ... and wedding.” “Awesome place to relax and enjoy some quiet in a beautiful house.” “Thank you for such a wonderful place that allowed for life memories to happen for all of us.”

Welcome to The King’s Gathering at Ellis Cove, a custom-built five bedroom, four bathroom craftsman home with modern conveniences combines rustic charm with contemporary comfort. Our home gives our guests access to over 700 feet on the Salmon River. For anglers, our stretch sits between two of the best fishing holes - Wire Hole and Ellis Cove - for salmon and steelhead fishing!

Host up to 12 people our vacation home with 800 sq. ft. additional covered outdoor space. It's perfect for connecting and making memories. Have a larger group? Book our other cabin (VRBO 580833) and between the two you can host up to 24 people like we do for Thanksgiving! Whether your passion is fishing, hiking, kayaking, snowmobiling, riding ATVs (minutes to trailheads), or cross-country skiing, you are never far from the action.

The heart of our home is a two-story great room with views of lush greenery and the wetlands bordering the Salmon River. For the foodies, our fully equipped kitchen or outdoor park-style grill is perfect. Finish your day sharing stories around the wood burning fireplace, lounging in the loft, or out by the fire pit.

On the main level, sleep up to four in two bedrooms: one king bed with full bath and soak-in tub and a queen bed adjacent to bathroom. Upstairs are a bathroom with two bedrooms to sleep up to four on two twin beds and one king bed. In the basement, you can sleep up to six with two bunkbeds (each a twin over queen bed). We also have two workstations if you need to finish up work.

The basement was designed primarily as a staging area for anglers. Equipped with rod holders, wader hooks, and corker mats, it is the perfect place to gear up in comfort during cold days. Rod holders are also available underneath the deck.

To help simplify your stay, we provide bed & bath linens, pots & pans, dishes/glasses/utensils. We use down-alternative duvets to reduce environmental allergens. As such, no animals are permitted and we are smoke-free.

Nice place, good location
This is a really nice place in a good location for us. There was plenty of room for the five of us for a couple day fishing trip. We didn't take advantage of all the amenities, but they were all there and in good condition. The listing was accurate and there were no surprises. Thanks for a great place to stay.

Already Planning Our Trip Back
We had five adults stay at the house, but the place could have easily accommodated several more. We stayed for three nights, and all really enjoyed the house. The host was very helpful and checked in to make sure all our needs were met. The house was in a quiet street and it very to use the door entry code. The bedrooms were spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. Each of the three levels were well equipped for relaxing, reading, or watching TV. The place seemed huge, and amount of space was more than we could use! We stayed in and cooked our meals each night, and the house was clean and well equipped for our needs. In the kitchen, all the appliances were modern and worked well. There was also plenty of cookware and serving ware (plates, glasses, bowls, etc.) – which is always a big plus. We used the charcoal grill one of the nights, and it was clean and easy to use. The backyard was lovely, and you could hear the river from the deck. There was even a path to walk down to the river and fish or site on the shore. We used the firepit each night and the firewood was well stocked. Our group is already planning to come back!

The property was beautiful and the house was very nice and had everything we needed. But the house was noisy because when we went to bed in the master bedroom we could hear the kids in the bunk room clear as day . The pathway to the river was overgrown.

Eclipse 2024
This was a beautiful home, perfect for an extended family getaway to view the solar eclipse. Especially loved having 3 levels of rooms and bedrooms for a variety of families and ages to stay in. Only suggestion is to bring or provide more tvs, we used the one in the basement for family viewing of the NCAA tournament, and brought another 2 so we had one on each level for different interests and age levels to watch at night. Also loved the outdoor fire pit and trail to the river. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Worked for us
The location of the property was great for us. We had hoped to cross-country ski but the weather did not cooperate to permit us to do that. However, we were able to hike at several places around the area and had a nice time.

Beautiful home
This house was perfect for our visit we had with old friends, & to celebrate a birthday. We were there right before the salmon run, so it was a busier time for the area, but still very quiet, with beautiful farmland all around. We would definitely stay here again. The house is spacious, and very comfortable.

Excellent home, beautiful memories
Thank you so much, Henry and Linda, for sharing your incredible home! We were pleasantly surprised at how beautifully designed and comfortable this rental was for our family. It was accommodating for a range of needs and the owners were extremely easy to work with. The views were lovely, and it was very convenient to both the river and beach as well. Excellent stay! We hope to be back again. (And also Janine says hi- God is good) ;)

There is plenty of room for a large family. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. The deck is great for spending time outside. If you're adventurous, try Adirondack River Outfitters whitewater rafting in Watertown. It's a wild ride.

Beautiful property and location
Our first time staying the in the area and we truly enjoyed it. The home and location were wonderful. Communication was great with the owner. The only negative we have about the home was the cleanliness. It did not appear as though it had been recently cleaned. We spent about an hour vacuuming the floors and wiping dust off the counters, tables, etc. We also washed several sets of sheets because beds looked like they had been laid/slept in.

In Style Cabin Living On The Salmon River
Any fisherman and his or her family would love staying in this cabin-inspired quiet retreat from its well appointed furnishings, to its many comfort zones throughout for unwinding, this home exceeded my expectations for our family of 14 who traveled to Syracuse for my son’s graduation from S. U. (Go Orange!). We stayed at the aptly named The Kings Gathering at Ellis Cove where we broke bread cooking indoors and out on the grill enjoying each other’s company and relaxed outside by the fire pit before retreating to our fish-named bedrooms with the youngest members staying in the perfectly accommodating bunk room on the bottom floor. A short walk through the property’s backyard forest made for little adventures to the salmon river during our weeklong stay and even though we didn’t get to see any fish as they don’t run during the month of May, it was nice just to take a stroll on the riverbank and gaze at the flow of the waters which will eventually be teaming with the Kings and their other freshwater counterparts. I look forward to the day I can return to try and fish for them. All in all, the home is spectacular and the hosts Henry and Linda are very unselfish to share it with others to enjoy. Communication with Henry via VRBO’s messaging system was excellent and timely. The only thing that needs attention for future guests inside the home is the cleaning of the ceiling fan blades in the upstairs bedrooms which have accumulated dust on their leading edges as well as the sweep-up of dust devils that seem to gather about some areas of the floor and baseboards. That is the reason why I didn’t give it a full star rating in cleanliness but other than that, this property checked all the boxes of a perfect home in upstate N.Y. away from city noise and traffic where the soothing sounds of wild birds will take you away.
