The perfect family get away!
Staying at Fox Point was truly a dream for our family get-away during the solar eclipse. My husband and I, along with our family, got the chance to enjoy each others' company for an extended long weekend during the solar eclipse in this beautiful home. The large family room was perfect for games and puzzles, relaxing, reading, and just spending time with one another. We loved having the big dining room table that we could all eat around, a fully stocked kitchen to cook meals in, and the fire pit by the lake for chilly evenings. Abby and Brandon were so accommodating, even stopping by to fix a smoke alarm that needed a battery replacement, and were responsive to our needs. They left us snacks and sodas for the kids, a full coffee bar, and even solar eclipse glasses! We loved having the dock and bay nearby, as my husband brought his RC boat and plane to entertain our niece and nephew. Abby also gave us lots of hiking recommendations nearby, and we enjoyed hikes as a family at Chimney Bluffs and Sterling Nature Center at her suggestion. We also enjoyed Lunkenheimer Craft Brewing, a suggestion of Brandon's! We loved having all the sleeping spaces, a lovely clean home, and the amenities to boot. We hope to return someday!!!

The Best
We were in for a wedding , but that was secondary to the primary reason of having my 4 kids with my 3 grandkids being together for the first time. No one lives in the area, so logistics of airport pick ups and driving in from all over the east coast was a juggling act. Having such a ready, comfortable , easy , sweet looking place , was huge in our happy , successful weekend. We had everything you need, to a great coffee station , to a well stocked kitchen and gifts for a warm greeting.,,,,the owners were terrific ! I could go on and on but the one word I have for the house, Wonderful! Thanks Again

The Perfect Getaway Spot
This beautiful spacious home was a perfect spot or our friends retreat. With six beautifully decorated bedrooms we each had our our space. The huge dining room table easily seats 10 people and three bathrooms is definitely a plus with a large group. The massive living room / great room had tons of comfortable seating, but its best feature was the panoramic view of Sodus Bay. Perhaps my favorite spot inside is the small enclosed porch/sun room on the second floor overlooking the lake- a perfect spot to enjoy a cup of tea and take in the scenery. Of course the big private yard with dock, firepits and its private beach made enjoying the view so much more pleasurable. Abby and Brandon were wonderful hosts. Abby always responded right away to any request and was super accommodating. They really went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and comfortable in their beautiful home. We can't wait to come back!

Perfect Property
What an amazing property! Our family of four generations - aging from 5 to 92 - enjoyed this home so much during our stay. There's SO much space - inside and out - and the house was stocked with everything we needed. We particularly enjoyed the small private beach with the kids, renting a pontoon boat, learning how to kayak, roasting marshmallows by the fire, and spending quality time as a family. We really couldn't have picked a more wonderful and welcoming place to stay. Thank you so much Abby and Brandon for sharing your home with us.

We could not have asked for a better location, home, yard, lake area. Our group consisted of family & friends. The house was amazing...clean, the beds were all comfortable, everything you needed in the kitchen was there, water pressure was great, the yard was spacious, the little beach area was wonderful for our granddaughters. We rented a pontoon boat with no problems. The host were easy to contact and responded right away. We look forward to our next stay at this location. Thank you Abby & Brandon the memories we made will last a lifetime.

Amazing Property
Incredible house and hosts! This has to be one of the best places to stay in Fair Haven. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and he house and yard entertained our group of 11 to the fullest. Incredible views of the lake from the house and yard, plenty of space in the yard for football, basketball, cornhole, reading and lounging. The spacious property is very private and feels like your own resort! A little beach area for the young ones and several different kayaks/boats for adventures out in the lake. Large dock that fit both our boat and wave runner with room for more. Every room had a TV and air conditioning, large dining table, and the large room with views of the lake is the ultimate chill area. This house was stocked with everything we needed. We couldn’t recommend this house more and there wasn’t a thing missing. If you want the best Lake experience come to Fair Haven and stay here, you won’t regret it!
