The Canal View Cottage

This cottage is located on a quiet dead end street in the center of Sylvan Beach, with access to the canal at the end of the street. It’s walking distance to all the restaurants, bars, beach, casino, amusement park, stores, laundromat and playground. Great town to ride bicycles. After a day of enjoying the surrounding area, you can relax on the deck. You can fish and dock your boat on the canal for free. We have off street parking for 2 cars. There is no WiFi at the cottage, unplug, relax and enjoy all there is to see and do!
