Stunning Lakefront Home on the Chain O'Lakes! ★ Amazing Views & Newly Rehabbed

Welcome all Chain O'Lakes boaters and waterfront seekers to the resort style living that Fox Lake has to offer! 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.

Summer fun! Spend the day out on the water and dock your boat right at the Lake House! Don't have a boat? Rent ours! Ask us about one of our Sylvan Pontoon boats that we have available for rent! There are several restaurants on the chain that have boat parking! 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.

Winter fun! Wilmot Ski Resort offers skiing and snow tubing for the whole family and is a short 15 minute drive away! Great cross country skiing trails at the Chain O’Lakes State park, local Ice skating rinks, phenomenal Ice Fishing, snowmobiling, hunting and more!

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. Thank you Josh for opening your doors to us and allowing us to visit your home. It was perfect.

Amazing Stay

We stayed at Josh’s lake house with 7 guests (4 adults and 3 kids) and 2 dogs. The house was perfect for our group! We rented their boat for the entire stay and spent every day on the water. In the evenings we played cornhole , went fishing and grilled out. The beds were super comfy. Josh was very responsive for any of our needs. Would definitely stay again!

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!

House was in a great location to everything you would want to see in the area. Very well kept, clean and easy check in. Josh had everything ready and detailed on how to work TV's, blinds, etc. Only drawback was the king bed in the 2nd bedroom. The mattress was very uncomfortable for sleeping. Definitely would not want to sleep in it for more than the 2 nights we did. All the others beds were perfect!

The property was incredible. The owner thought of every detail and had everything one could need there. The lake was super calm and because we went during the week we had it to ourselves to tube and swim. It truly was perfect and can't wait to come again.

Wish we could stay longer

This property is amazing. This is our 2nd time renting this property and it never disappoints. We were able to bring Paddleboards this year and the Lake in the morning (we were there during the week) was perfectly calm and peaceful. We always leave refreshed and wanting more. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place. We only wish we could stay longer.
