About this property

Pearl Beach Lakehouse - Private Beach & Historic 5BR Retreat

Experience the ultimate lakeside escape at Pearl Beach Lakehouse. Nestled in Saybrook Township, this beautifully restored historic retreat offers sweeping Lake Erie views, year-round sunsets, and exclusive access to a private concrete boardwalk and beach area.

Whether you are looking for a winery tour basecamp or a spacious home for a wedding group, Pearl Beach provides the perfect blend of privacy and proximity to Ashtabula County’s best attractions.

Why Guests Love Pearl Beach:

The Perfect Basecamp: Located just minutes from 24+ award-winning wineries. We are the ideal landing spot for groups exploring the Grand River Valley wine trail.

Wedding Group Friendly: With 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, we offer the space and "get-ready" room that bridal parties and out-of-town wedding guests need.

Private Beach & Boardwalk: Shared only with the owner and two adjacent properties. No crowds, just the sound of the waves and a peaceful spot for morning coffee or sunset cocktails.

Spacious Living: A large eat-in kitchen for shared meals, a lake-view gathering room, and a cozy front porch.

The Space:

5 Bedrooms: Includes a large first-floor Master and three lake-facing upstairs bedrooms. Wake up to the sound of the water!

3 Full Bathrooms: Designed to handle large groups with ease and privacy.

Lakeside Amenities: Take a short stroll to our private concrete boardwalk—perfect for easy water access and clean, sand-free lounging.

Explore the Area:

Geneva-on-the-Lake (Minutes away): The "Strip," vintage diners, and summer fun.

Historic Ashtabula Harbor: Boutique shopping, the Maritime Museum, and fine dining.

Nature & History: Visit 16 scenic covered bridges or take a day trip to Cleveland (1 hour away).

Great stay

We had a great four night stay at the house. We were able to fit 8 adults and four kids between the beds and some roll-out cots. Enjoyed being able to swim in the lake nearby and do s’mores in the fire pit. It was nice having a full kitchen and access to restaurants nearby in Ashtabula.

Perfect family reunion

This adorable home was perfect for our group of ten to spread out and enjoy time together. The decorations are perfect for a beach house and they really have thought of every detail for amenities. We loved the fire pit, grilling out, and the huge eating area. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. We loved every second of our vacation.
