Things to do during "cabin time" in North Rose
Book direct and save on North Rose, NY vacation rentals near Niagra Falls. Ninety minutes from Niagra falls and just south of beautiful Lake Ontario lies North Rose, New York. Surrounded by the lush green of New York landscape, North Rose is a sleepy village that is ideal if you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle.
This is a beautiful region of New York and the perfect spot to get your fill of the outdoors. Within a 20 minute radius of your homey cabin are several places to hike. Huckleberry Swamp is a quiet, beautiful place to walk around (bring bug spray!) and is easily accessible for all ages and abilities. Both the Kraai Preserve and Lake Shore Marshes provide easy trails for wandering, and Lake Shore permits hunting and fishing. If you head further north you’ll find the city of Sodus point, Sodus Bay, and the breathtaking Chimney Bluff State Park. Chimney Bluff overlooks the blue waters of Lake Ontario and the contrast with the unique, reddish rock formations makes for a striking view any time of year. You can choose to take it easy and just drive up to the outlook, or you can take to the trails. Bring your snowshoes and cross country skis during the winter months, or simply explore on foot. The park also allows snowmobiles and ATVs, as well as hunting and fishing.
If catching some finned wildlife is your top priority, both Sodus Bay and Lake Ontario will keep you occupied all year. Sodus Bay is home to a large variety of fish, including Longnose Gar, Northern Pike, Chain Pickerel, Channel Catfish, Bass, and Walleye. If you have your sites set on wrangling a king salmon, Lake Ontario is the place to be. There are annual tournaments every year you can try your hand at, or if you want something a little less competitive, there are several fishing charter services that can help guide you to the best spots.
