Avis Quaint Cottage - Amazing Views, Great Swimming on Oquaga Lake

The cottage and location on the quiet lake is perfect. We had a great time and plan on returning next year.

Me and my family we loved it is so relaxing

We were up in the area for niece's graduation from SUNY Binghamton, and wanted to say somewhere we could gather as a family and enjoy the long weekend together. The cottage totally fit the bill! All the bedrooms are upstairs, and all the space downstairs is living/hangout space - a dining room, a kitchen/living room area, and a screened porch. It is nicely laid out for a big group to be together, so that some can read quietly while others are playing cards or visiting. The dock is large and the water is, as advertised, not seaweedy at all. Another plus is that the house faces west so you can see the sunset across the lake. Overall an excellent place to stay! We did have to navigate a little bit that there were six of us and only one full bathroom, but the half bath downstairs really helped. The host was accessible and checked in over the course of the weekend to make sure we had everything we needed. The town of Deposit is about 10 minutes away (at most), and has a supermarket, a restaurant, a pharmacy, and other basic retail. Not super fancy, but definitely a great weekend getaway from the city, or a nice place to stay for graduation weekend.
