OUR STORY
The Creekside Inn was originally built in 1813 and has strong historic ties to the surrounding area. It holds countless memories for the families that lived in the house and the many people that
knew them. The house is also alive with memories from the years it was run by Melanie & Joey Fiato as Charlotte’s Creekside. Melanie laid much of the groundwork that we built upon and people often come in reminiscing of the good times that were spent eating and listening to Joey sing in the same building.
After 19 years of running a successful restaurant in Sylvan Beach, founders Mike and Kelly Miller wanted to bring a quality dining experience to Oneida. As Kelly states, “We waited patiently to purchase this building, and when the time finally came we were able to take this place we had fallen in love with years before and make it our own. With the love of going out for meals and experiencing different relaxing
atmospheres, we wanted to make it a place we would love to go.”
Renovations were started in May 2016 and were completed in January, 2017. It was exciting to see our dreams and ideas for the building brought to life and are very proud of what has become the Creekside Inn. With Kelly’s vision for the décor, we went through each room changing the lighting and paint colors as well as adding new floors. Mike had the pub expertise. We completely remodeled the area to make it cozy and relaxing.
