Great quiet lake house

This was a great place to stay. The house was well furnished with everything we needed and the lake was incredible. It was quiet and isolated but big enough that we could explore on the water. Great location to several stores within a few minutes and restaurants in town a bit farther. We would definitely stay here again. Everything about it was just what we were looking for.

Stay at Camp Shah

Our stay was excellent. Host is great and provides for everything you need during your stay. We had a very relaxing, quiet time and really enjoyed our 4 days at the lake. Fishing off the dock for small pan fish is great and loads of fun. Thanks again to 1our host for a 5-star stay.

Great Lakefront Cottage

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Camp Shah! The cottage was just as described and the Shah family were very attentive and welcoming hosts. We loved using the provided kayaks and inner tube floats as well as fishing off the dock. We definitely recommended this lake front cottage to others!

A fantastic place to relax

My family and I enjoyed our vacation greatly. We loved the easy access to the lake and all of the fun activities that were at our disposable. We took advantage of the kayaks, floats, darts, board games, fire pit, and so much more. The lake is not very busy with boats or people. My husband and I felt very comfortable with our children paddle boarding and exploring the lake on their own. A great place to stay and get away from it all.

End of Summer Fun

Camp Shah was a fantastic getaway for our extended family. We had such a great time swimming, kayaking, sitting around the fire and playing cards on the screen porch. The only suggestions I have is that the 100lb weight limit on the bunk beds should definitely be listed, and also possibly an upgrade to the refrigerator. Other than that, the property was wonderful and the owners were super responsive, friendly and helpful. I'd rent it again.

Family getaway

Came to camp Shah for four nights. The weather was perfect for us. The property owner was very accommodating and left smores fixings for my 2 boys (10,7). We had a blast fishing from the dock, kayaking, swimming and relaxing by the fire. There was an ice cream stand a couple miles away that the boys loved as well. It was truly the perfect vacation for our family. We hope to come back in the future.

Lake House Getaway

We had so much fun at this property. The view from the house was awesome. The lake was perfect. The dock needs a ladder especially for older ones but we had a great time in the kayaks and tubes floating. They had some games in the yard and a hammock and a fire pit which the owners had left us a smores gift box which was great for our campfire:) We had a wonderful time and we took a ride into Oswego a couple of nights and what an adorable quaint little downtown-they just happen to be having a festival! We rode scooters at the park at Lake Ontario and drove down and got Ice cream at a schack called Bev's which was so good! We were very sad to leave. Each day seemed to top the one before!! There is something with the water you can't drink or brush your teeth or wash your vegetables with it. But the owners supply you with more than enough water to take care of everything you need. They are extremely hospitable and available for anything you need.
