About this property

Autumn is Spectacular! Luxury Waterfront Sodus Bay, dogs welcome

Love at first sight! Voted "the best view on the Bay" by longtime locals. Supreme sunrises flood light through a bank of windows overlooking the largest bay on Lake Ontario. Experience Mid Century charm with First Class amenities including: premium cable channels, ceiling fans throughout to catch the breezes, pillow-top beds with goose down pillows, top brand appliances & fixtures with vintage surprises such as an original Hamilton Beach blender in avocado green, of course,  and Sunbeam Electric Can Opener.

Gastronomic delights such as homemade fruit pies, Imprint Coffee roasters, locals; 3 miles to historic Sodus Point with lifeguarded sandy beaches on the Bay and Lake Ontario; dining Key West style at Bay Street or burgers & barbecue with live music on the Bay at Captain Jacks; Waterfront dining around the Bay; Sunday concerts on the lawn of the historic Lighthouse museum on Lake Ontario; free outdoor movies on the baseball diamond with ice cream and 'hots' across the street. Tastings at breweries, wineries, and distilleries nearby and throughout the Finger Lakes region; Rochester offers world-renowned museums and art Galleries; endless dining choices... This area is renowned for its charming canal towns along the Erie River, which provide an enchanting day trip that will lead to the inimitable Niagara Falls with forever memories. Farmer's markets, price-conscious antiquing. Gorgeous hiking, biking and disc golf trails are ubiquitous throughout the county's waterways, parklands, orchards, and lanes lined with wildflowers.
Our classic 1952 lake cottage has been completely restored and updated, keeping the best of design enhanced with modern convenience. Adorned with period proper treasures: original Fitz and Floyd rattan sectional seating circa 1950, sea captain's trunk, nautical Rock Maple bedroom suites, Heywood Wakefield dining ensemble seats 10.

About the host

Hosted by Aurora or Fred

Host profile image
Our family includes Teddy and Gus, our standard poodles who didn't make it into the photo but are very much in our lives. Aurora owns a day spa, Fred is recently retired CEO for a behavioral health company, and our son Cody, lives in Baltimore.
We were drawn to Sodus Bay because Aurora’s family had a cottage there and her father grew up on the lake. We fell in love immediately and began to rent and bought Happy Trails in 2008. We live on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland and are fortunate to have found a house on Lake Ontario that we love.
Come share our dream !!

Why they chose this property

We have been coming to Sodus Bay for over 20 years. Re-uniting with family and bringing in-laws and friends, we get to share our love for the perfect place to go back in time. The towns, the beach, the neighbors and even the weather seem to be the way I remember it from childhood. That is, a slower pace where the person behind the cash register stops to chat; real peace and quiet with thousands of stars; no need to lock the doors; warm sunny days with low humidity; wild flowers bursting with color by the side of the road...Of course there's endless water from the Bay to Lake Ontario to the Finger Lakes and the Erie Canal.

What makes this property unique

Having a spectacular view of Sodus Bay from sunrise to moonrise is unbelievably beautiful! You can relax on our large deck over looking the bay and have dinner by moonlight. Guests can swim off our dock while the kids enjoy playing on the floating foam platform! The house is beautifully appointed, and the kitchen well stocked for any gourmet! You know you're in the right place and it's always the right time. Of course our company often like to fish off our dock which means dinner is super fresh. Just a five minute ride away you can find the best homemade fruit pies we've ever eaten. Aurora’s family enjoy playing at the Sodus Golf Club-gorgeous rolling green acres. The younger set are happy at the miniature golf course and we're all up for one of the local ice cream spots. For those wanting to explore the area further we are only 30 minutes from the finger lakes, in particular Keuka and Seneca. Keuka is a wonderful intimate lake with numerous restaurants and local shopping. Superlatives abound!
