About this property

Legacy, A Modern Luxury Lakehouse

This beautiful home sleeps 20. View the beautiful sunrise from the large covered porch and open deck. The 6 bedrooms and 6 ensuite baths make this a wonderfully comfortable place to make memories. Fish and swim from the large permanent dock. Relax and read a book out on the breezy covered porch. Play cards and board games on the large dining table. Take a short walk to the West Barrier Bar and watch the sunset on beautiful Lake Ontario. All that is missing is you and your family or friends.

This property was as listed — high-quality construction, beautifully decorated, nicely appointed, accommodations for large groups - loved two dishwashers (!), children’s games. Really lovely - one of the best we’ve stayed it. Thank you!

This house was absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations! It was spotlessly clean and incredibly well stocked with everything we could possibly need.One of our favorite touches was the thoughtful welcome basket filled with bottles of wine, local favorites, business cards, and brochures for places in the area. We’ve stayed in many rentals, and this was the first time we’ve received something so thoughtful. It immediately set this home apart!The kitchen is gorgeous and fully equipped with ample dishes and utensils, two dishwashers, two full-size refrigerators, and a wine fridge. Every bedroom has bathroom access, and the downstairs wet bar with its own coffee maker made staying with multiple families a breeze.The views are incredible, and the deck was perfect for reading, having a drink, playing cards, or eating dinner. The fireplace area, high-quality furniture, and beautiful décor made the entire home feel luxurious yet comfortable.The dock was perfect for our boat rental, swimming, and fishing. Having canoes and life jackets available was another great bonus. Even the washer and dryer were clutch—we went home without bags of dirty laundry!This home truly has it all. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. 10/10 would absolutely recommend and would stay again!

Large Family Vacation

This property has brought memories that will last our family a lifetime. We spent the week relaxing, enjoying Little Sodus Bay and exploring the quaint town of Fair Haven. The house was clean and well stocked with anything your family may need. Bedrooms were spacious and the on suite bathrooms were a dream. The perfect vacation spot for our large family.

Amazing Stay at Legacy

The house was just as advertised if not better. We had ages ranging from 5 months to 80 years old. This house offered something for everyone to do. I will say we ran into a few small issues, nobody’s fault. Bernie was very responsive and made it a point to come over and fix the issue at hand. Another very great thing was the kitchen being stocked with everything you could ever need as well. Overall, we had a great stay and would highly recommend it to anyone.

We found the property mostly comfortable for our large group. The east-facing setting with a great water view was appreciated by all. However, nearby amenities like supermarkets and good restaurants were absent.We would have preferred greater temperature control, especially at night. The four downstairs bedrooms were much cooler. Ceiling fans helped. Having just one kitchen sink for the large group was challenging. Otherwise the large kitchen with two dishwashers was much appreciated. Lighting was generally annoying, especially harsh for the dining table, almost nothing for the beds and missing entirely for the sink.Some in our group wished there were umbrellas and flotation devices for use in the nearby state park beach.One of our group of 12 reacted to the perfume in the detergent used to launder the sheets. They had to wash them multiple times to reduce but not eliminate the problem.None of the bedrooms are spacious. Some are cramped. But the king beds and ensuite bathrooms are a big plus. There are no grab bar for the showers. One of us brought a suction grab bar for our most fragile family member. That seems like an unreasonable solution for reducing the risk. Especially the downstairs bedrooms could use window shades for early bright mornings. Pack eyeshades!The sand box in a small boat was appreciated by our small children but rusty pointed nails required some workaround to reduce the potential for injury.

This was a fantastic property for our multi-generational family vacation. Exceptionally well-stocked kitchen, spacious deck and lots of seating around the fire pit. 3 kayaks and a pier to fish from. A little pricey, but wonderful.Tips: Bring bug spray. Visit the winery down the road. Swing by Sarah’s Bakery in the nearby town.

Beautiful location!

We had a wonderful week! The house was clean and thoughtfully appointed, and the location is absolutely beautiful. The house is on the water in a protected bay. Our kids caught lots of fish from the dock, and there is a winery that also serves food within paddling distance. The village of Fair Haven (5 minutes away) is small but quaint, with several good restaurants, an ice cream stand, and a cidery.

About the host

Hosted by Bernie Cooper

Host profile image
My husband is from Syracuse, NY and I am from West Palm Beach, FL. We met in south Florida where we married and started our family. In 1994, we moved our family to Virginia, where we were then a days drive to both families. We have 4 adult children, 3 daughter-in-laws and 2 grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

My husband's family purchased the original cottage in 1966, when he was 4 years old. Every year they moved to the cottage to live a slower paced, fun-filled summer. Once we had our own children, we took them to the cottage each and every year.
Our growing family needed more space to gather at the lake. So we have built a larger home to accommodate all of us.
Now we would like to share this experience with you. Bring your family and make new and exciting memories.

What makes this property unique

This property was one of 10 parcels originally established in 1895 as The Imperial Club. The original founders created a unique place for members to enjoy their summers. That is why today our property is one of the only deep lots with gradual access to the bay. You will find the best views and some of the deepest water in all of Little Sodus Bay. Too many benefits to mention !
