The North Star of Honeoye: Family Friendly, Great View of Honeoye Lake!

Centrally located for day trips into Naples, Canandaigua, Rochester and the extremely popular wine and beer trails of the Finger Lakes; one getaway at The North Star of Honeoye will capture your family's heart. Discover the scenic beauty of Honeoye Lake and enjoy being just minutes from town, walking through nature trails, and a location adjacent to Sandy Bottom Park.

Inside, you will be greeted with beautiful lake views shining from the lake side of the house. Immediately to your right, the gorgeous first floor bath with tiled shower is easily accessible to first floor guests. Just past the entryway, the first floor bedrooms are both newly remodeled, and decorated with comfort and luxury in mind. Each bedroom offers a garden view and welcomed retreat in the evening.

Just past the first floor bedrooms, lake views boast through expansive windows of the open kitchen and living area. A beautifully built gas, stone fireplace with custom mantle acts as a focal point to this grand room. The plush leather sectional adds a relaxing place to build a puzzle as a family, or visit as the chefs in the kitchen prepare your groups favorite meals.

The kitchen offers custom built, local cabinetry, glass tile back splash and beautiful granite counter tops. The newly built island offers a great spot for meal prep, and doubles as the perfect breakfast bar.

A formal dining area just off the kitchen offers a large wooden farmhouse table; perfect for family dining. Entertaining is a breeze with this perfectly decorated space. French doors open up to the fully covered porch to let the outside in.

Upstairs, two master bedrooms offer the perfect retreat with the best views in the house. Exquisite panoramic views greet you each morning as the sun shines through the large windows. A semi-private fifth bedroom offers additional bunk bed sleeping. Completing the second floor, you'll find the second full bath.

Outside, a beautiful covered patio is filled with opportunity for entertainment and relaxation. Plenty of comfortable seating is available to encourage lingering conversations while enjoying the lake view. The fun doesn't stop there! The previously used boat house has been converted into a game room for your enjoyment. Rain or shine, pull open the bay and enjoy fun filled afternoons with friends and family - lake views and all.

Stop at a local roadside stand on your many Finger Lakes day trips and grab a bundle of wood. The lakeside firepit is the most ideal way to end any day at the lake. Build a fire, roast a marshmallow, and toast with your favorite glass of Finger Lakes wine while planning tomorrow's adventures, or talking of the memories made today.

Fun and opportunity are everywhere you look. Adventures are plenty whether you've booked the pavilion next door at Sandy Beach Park for a wedding, or family reunion, you've come to ski at Hunt Hollow or Bristol Harbor, or your plan is to taste wine at some of the nearby wineries like Hazlitt's Red Cat Cellars in Naples, NY. One stay at The North Star of Honeoye will have your vacation planned for years to come. Call and make your reservation today!

Annual lake vacation
The property was well kept and well situated. Unfortunately the weather was not good so we lost several days to the effects of a tropical storm. Also the marina opened at 9:00 instead of earlier which would have been more convenient. The property had a nice dock and a great view of the lake.

2024 Family Lake Trip
We were very impressed with this property. It had great water access, for swimming, fishing, boating etc. The kids and adults enjoyed the boat house/game room. Our only issue was a question about the garbage, there was overflowing cans when we got there. I called maintenance and it was picked up, but the recycle was not. The directions said garbage day was Thursday , but nothing was picked up, so the people after us will be stuck with our garbage. But everything else was great, the little ones loved being close to the park for swings and climbing toys. I walked the Nature Trail every morning to start my day.

Vacation Extraordinaire
North Star was lovely well maintained. With two bedrooms downstairs and two upstairs, it provided convenience and privacy. The house is situated on the beautiful Honeoye Lake and next to a park with a walking trail into the town containing shops and restaurants. We definitely will book another vacation at North Star.

Family Weekend
This property is perfect to bring family together. The house is spacious, the rooms are comfortable and spacious, and the house is stocked with everything you need for a weekend of family fun. The kitchen has every thing you need to cook as a family and the dining room does seat 12 comfortably. The game room in the garage is fun for the whole family. The view, nature walks, and animal sights kept us entertained. This is our second time this year in this house and we can’t wait to go back.

Great Space
Overall this place ticked all of our boxes. There was enough room for 12 of us, there were many areas to hang out (all with great views of the lake), and the boathouse with it's amenities was perfect. We liked being near to the beach and the pickle ball court and the short nature hike to main street. There was a lot of grass in the entire lake so in my opinion not great swimming - but the house met all of our expectations and the host was awesome.

We had a wonderful time, slept 12 people for a night. We had our jet skis and rented a boat so the dock was perfect. We all had a fire every night and cooked s’mores, hobo pies,etc, star watched and met a friendly heron we named Hank. We’d all love to go back next year.

Beautiful Location
Property was beautiful and had something for each of us with the boating, fishing, playground and beach a short walk away. Great to have a washer & dryer on premise to wash towels etc. Our family loved the pool table, pac-man game , air hockey, etc that was located in the garage-nice on rainy days and in the evening. .Only problem we encountered was the garbage pickup. Both totes were full when we arrived and thank goodness pickup was on Tuesday and not the Thursday listed on our packet. Hope to stay again.

Beautiful lake view
This was a nice house and location. Very clean, nicely decorated, well stocked. Porch and fire pit area great places to relax. Nice location near a beach and walking trail. Cool game garage. Going through Finger Lakes Premier properties was very confusing. Our air conditioning and hot water didn't work upon arrival. We couldn't use the kitchen for the first night because of the heat. There were many emails, phone numbers, contacts to communicate with. After sending numerous messages, I was recommended not to use the VRBO app when they responses the next day. Our solutions were resolved, but I wanted to give other renters a heads up that going through this rental company is a different experience.
