Located directly on Fox Lake with 50 feet of frontage on the water, you can enjoy breakfast on your beautiful deck, coffee, or wine on the balcony, then a day on the water. This stunning, meticulously maintained 1850+ square feet lakefront home was recently renovated. Have dinner on the deck with a view of the lake and the make your s’mores in the fire pit all while being on the edge of Mineola Bay.

Large deck and fully fenced in flat backyard are great for bonfires and games. The open kitchen and dining areas offers spectacular views of the lake through two story windows.

Ride horses at the Chain O'Lakes State Park Stables, hike through Chain O'Lakes state park, and there are plenty of golf courses within 20 minutes, ride your bike on the bike trails and more. Enjoy a traditional Friday Night Fish Fry and other great food and drinks from several local restaurants.

Lakefront Home

Living on a lake for a week was heavenly. The home was comfortable, clean, and fully equipped for cooking most of our meals in. We enjoyed the fire pit nightly and loved relaxing and eating on the deck. We also loved how close the house is to amazing restaurants and Lakefront Beach where we brought our little girls for some play and beach time. We brought our dogs and loved it that the backyard is fenced in. It was a perfect week at a perfect lake house.

Long weekend stay.

Loved this home. Very clean and the property had everything you could need to enjoy your stay. Josh the host was very responsive and thorough during our bioking process and he also set up the boat rent for us and it was ready to go when we arrived. Our only complaint is that the home is already booked for the summer and wed love to stay there more this summer. Hope yo stay there again very soon.

Amazing rental!

We had an amazing time at this beautifully appointed lakeside retreat. The house was very clean, stocked, with plenty of space for our two families to spread out and enjoy. We were lucky enough to get snow during our stay- making it a beautiful winter wonderland. We are already planning a return trip to enjoy the summer months on the lake.

Great stay - good times

We enjoyed our time here with our family and friends. Josh was great to work with and quick to respond with answers to questions. The house is located in a great spot on fox lake away from the lake traffic. The shade in the afternoon and the view on the lake was very idyllic way to wind down the day.

Great Weekend in Amazing Property

First of all this lakeside home was breath taking and so very cozy. Everything we could have possibly needed we had available, beds were comfortable and the space was perfect for my small family visiting our son for his Naval boot camp graduation.
