Nestled along the water's edge, The Got Away offers thoughtfully appointed rooms where the rhythm of Sodus Bay sets the pace — and every detail is designed for genuine rest.
The Got Away was born from a simple conviction: a great stay doesn't need grandeur — it needs intention. Every room is furnished with care, every surface chosen to feel right, and every morning begins with the kind of quiet that only water can provide.
Perched along Blind Sodus Bay Road, our property sits at the intersection of natural beauty and considered hospitality. Whether you're passing through the Finger Lakes or returning year after year, we've built a place that feels like coming home to something better.
Each space is individually furnished — no cookie-cutter layouts, no impersonal minimalism. Just rooms that feel considered from the first step inside.
