SILVER CREEK, N.Y. (WKBW) — Tucked away in a beautiful cove on Lake Erie is a new destination for relaxation and entertainment and this weekend you can get a preview of things to come.
The new Hideaway Bay Resortin Silver Creek is hosting a "sneak peek" beach event starting Saturday at noon. The three-day event is open to the public and will feature live music, a food truck, a tiki bar, and some incredible views.
"Anyone can come for the day and experience this beautiful resort," said Kevin Cullen, who owns Hideaway Bay Resort with his wife Christian Edie. "We just feel really privileged and honored to have the opportunity to create a great space here."
Hideaway Bay Resort is a concept Cullen and Edie have been developing for over a decade.
While the preview weekend will give visitors their first look at the resort, it's only a small taste of things to come.
When Hideaway Bay Resort fully opens in mid-June visitors can relax in a private cabana at the beach while staying in one of ten stunning lakefront cottages.
"Each cottage has incredible views of Lake Erie," said Edie. "They have two bedrooms, queen-size beds in each bedroom, and then a pull-out sofa. There is a small kitchenette, a fireplace with a TV, and a bathroom with a standing shower."
Visitors can also enjoy an elevated dining experience at the resort's on-site restaurant named "Drift," unwind in the wood-burning hot tub or sauna or participate in a variety of watersports.
"We are really just trying to create a barefoot luxury experience for residents and visitors of Western New York," said Cullen.
"Just a place of entertainment for guests to come and enjoy themselves and relax, get rejuvenated and continue to come back," added Edie.
Hideaway Bay Resort is already taking cottage reservations for the upcoming season. Rates start at $425 a night. You can find more information here.
