The house was very affordable and super clean. We stayed for 3 nights, and we brought our mini dachshund. The hosts were very accommodating for us and our puppy. The house is so close to the ferry and was very convenient going to the islands for a day . It is also very close to other great stores on the mainland. I will say the only complaint I would have is the stairs are very steep going up to the bedrooms so if you have anyone that has trouble with stairs this probably isn’t the place for them. But it is a beautiful house and we will definitely be staying again in the future!

This was an excellent home base for our Spring fishing trip. The house is on a quiet street but still close to the ferry, Catawba Island boat ramp, and Twin Oast Brewery. The driveway is a little tight to back a boat in, but long enough for several cars.

Birthday Getaway

We had a wonderful stay, this property is in walking distance to the Millers Ferry if you want to go to Put in Bay, there is also a bar/restaurant Catawba Inn that you can walk to and provides live music. Every year we do a fishing charter with my Dad, Brothers and my Husband and this will hands down be the place we book when we return next year!!

Great stay

Loved the property and the location. Would definitely stay ago. Hosts hd everything you need for a comfortable stay and more and we’re very responsive to questions. Only bummer was there was only one adult bike and it wasn’t great. Would stay again and bring our own!

Great location and stay!

Location was a quick drive to the winery we were visiting at. Would love to stay here again in the summer since it’s just a short walk to the Miller Ferry. Place was large enough for my big family and can’t stress how the flexibility of bringing pups was a huge convenience for us! We (including the pups!) will be back. Thank you!

Awesome

Perfect house for my family of 7 and 3 pets. Lots to see and do in the Port Clinton area. Owner of home was very nice and the sign up and communication was top notch. Other than the worries of mayflies that are prevelent during the month of June (which were just about non-existent), my family and I had a great vacation.

Winter getaway :)

Loved our short, little winter getaway to Catawba. We dock our boats in the summer at Cedar Point, and store them in Catawba and Sandusky. The house was convenient to both storage facilities, was very well decorated, and allowed our pups to join! All in all, it was perfect for our little family and friends! Thanks again!

Very Pleased!

It was so nice being able to come to a nice and clean house after spending the day at put in bay.. Everything was tidy and clean.. The owners walked me through all the questions I had with ease.. We actually forgot something there and the owner went out of her way to make sure we got the items back.. Wonderful experience..
