Beautiful, small, lakefront cottage decorated in nautical theme, overlooking private sandy beach with 54 foot of lake frontage. The spectacular sunsets sold us on this home, and we enjoy the nearby area, too. Situated amongst other weekend get-away homes, this is a fabulous spot to relax on the deck overlooking the grassy hill leading down to the beach, watch the waves rolling in, the Great Lakes ships passing by on the horizon, the sun dappling the waves in the morning and setting so dramatically in the evening.
Our children love going into Geneva-on-the-Lake, with its 1950's shopping strip-lined with amusement halls, putt-putt golf, waterslides, shops, and restaurants. We enjoy visiting Geneva State Park with its lodge and marina, the wineries in the area, the beautiful bridge and great antique shops in Ashtabula Harbor, and just incredible views as you drive along the lake. An hour to Erie, Pennsylvania, and an hour to downtown Cleveland, the area remains quiet and serene, not overly built and commercialized.
The home itself was updated in the past two or three years, and is very comfortable and enjoyable. After a day of exploring, we can enjoy a full meal cooked in the ample kitchen (with full-size refrigerator and gas oven, plenty of kitchenware) while the kids pop in a video or DVD in the living room with fireplace (fold-out couch for one person sleeping) with a sliding glass door leading to the deck overlooking Lake Erie. There is an enclosed porch (with outdoor furniture that can be brought outside) also overlooking the lake.
The master bedroom features a queen-size bed and plentiful storage in the dresser. The other bedroom features a bunkbed perfect for kids, with a twin-size bed on top, and a full-size mattress below, dresser storage, and a TV with VHS. There is also an attached one-car garage which we will someday make into interior living space, maybe an extra bedroom and full bathroom. For now, we use the garage to store firewood, lawncare equipment, and fun beach and water toys.
We love swimming in the summer, and awesome views of nature all winter long. We enjoy all the amenities of the area, including great golfing nearby, full service groceries in Geneva and Ashtabula, and just a lot of fun. We know we will be spending the next few years just taking in all that the area has to offer. We hope you choose to as well.
