Peaceful and quiet!

This is a quiet and peaceful location. Everything that you need is in the well equipped kitchen and laundry room. We had several families of deer and Snooky the cat visit us every day! Our hostess Ute is kind, generous and was flexible with our needs. Great location and property.

Peace, quiet and everything you need, including a wonderful host!

My husband and I can't believe how lucky we were to find the Fox Island Guest House! We purchased home on Fox Island but were not able to move in for a month, so having this wonderful vacation rental only a mile from our new home was a blessing. It truly helped us to acclimate to this quiet and peaceful Island. Everything that you need is in the well appointed kitchen. Great laundry room and bright dining area too. Main bedroom, bathroom and half bath are all downstairs which was important to us as we have mobility issues. The house is tastefully decorated (we actually picked the same paint color for our new house!) And best of all, we had a lovely family of deer that visited us every day! We could not have asked for a better hostess. Ute is kind, generous and was flexible with our dates. We feel like we made our first friend on Fox Island when we met Ute and we were incredibly fortunate to have enjoyed her hospitality.
