Location and cleanliness was great. TV was a bit small, the AC unit in the bedroom was kind of loud, and the fridge kept making a loud noise as well.

Great place to stay! Had everything we needed. Check in and out were super easy. Host was excellent, and even asked if we wanted an early check-in when he found out we would be in town a few hours earlier. We had a wonderful and relaxing week! Condo has everything, and it's very conveniently located. This was our 2nd time staying there, and we will be back!

The condo was close to everything and very clean. Great views and the pool looked great too (too cold to swim for us old people). Lots of stairs, a/c situation needs upgrading too.

Walked to the ice cream place, yum! The pool, hot tub, and fire pit areas were great. People very welcoming and friendly. Great sunset views! Private beach.

Stayed here last year and loved it, not so much this time

The construction on the condo next to us was awful! Dust everywhere, we could not enjoy the balcony. Very very noisy. The condo itself was fine, I had to clean it before unpacking or cooking.

No beach and not very clean

The condo shows beach but the photo needs updated the beach was washed out. Their were dirty dishes found and the dishwasher was not emptied This was a dog friendly condo and our first day there we were made to feel bad by the other owners They told us that no renters were permitted to bring dogs. The property manager did apologize for their behavior but it still put a damper on our vacation knowing that the other owners felt this way. The sofa bed was broken and so one of us had to just lay on the couch or floor to sleep. We will not be returning.

Lisa, Thank you for the feedback, we take all feedback very seriously! We are sorry to hear that your stay fell short of expectations. The condo is nearby a beach, however, while you were visiting there was a lot of rain and the tide was high, we apologize that the beach was not at its full potential while you were staying. We do apologize for the policy regarding pets changing last minute, we have now made it clear on the listing that pets are not allowed per the HOA! The owner strives to provide their guests with a 5-star stay, and they appreciate your feedback for helping them provide an even better experience for future travelers. Best, The Evolve Team

Was not right for us

While this property might be good for younger people, as people in our seventies with mobility issues, the three flights of stairs to the condo were very challenging. Also, in large print, the description said it was air conditioned, but as we found out after arrival and reading the small print in the body of the email, there was only a window air conditioner in the bedroom. If you want any kind of air in the rest of the condo, you have to put a fan in the doorway of the bedroom to blow air out into the living area. It was in the 90's while we were there and the air hadn't been turned on prior to our arrival, so it was extremely hot. Also, the fan needed cleaned very badly. The bathroom was probably our worst issue. The commode was very difficult to flush. We had to take the lid off and lift up on the handle because it was very hard to flush and we were afraid we were going to break it. There were brown spots on the throw rug in the bathroom. It was either mud or feces. I don't know which, but it should have been cleaned before our arrival. The tvs are very small by today's standards. They're flat screens, but very small. We didn't watch them because of how small they were. We left after one night and to the owner's credit, we were offered a replacement night in the Fall as compensation, but we just couldn't navigate all those stairs again so we declined. VRBO did refund one night's payment back to us, which they didn't have to do, so we are grateful. In short, this place would be okay for young couples who have no mobility issues and if traveling in any season except summer.

Hi Richard, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they would like to share the following: - Our unit is located on the second floor of our building and we're sorry if the steps caught you off-guard. - As you mentioned, the home has a window unit which works well to cool the home down. We do not keep the AC on in between guest stays, so it can take up to an hour to fully cool off upon arrival. - The toilet flusher has been repaired and we apologize for this inconvenience. - We use a professional cleaning company to prepare the home for all guests and can assure you that the rug was fully cleaned. While there may be faint stains from normal wear and tear, we are confident in the cleanliness of the home overall. - The size of the TV's are accurately represented in the listing photos and we encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs. We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.

Stunningly beautiful grounds

Simple, clean and cozy. I was a bit surprised that it was on the third floor, but the view was worth climbing the steps. For being in busy Port Clinton, the pool and beach area was so quiet and private. I loved being able to be at the pool, but still hear the waves and watch the sunset. This is really a gem! The grounds are stunning and the staff were constantly cleaning, gardening and smiling. Lots of good food and activities near by.

Safe and nice location. Needs a woman's touch

It's ok for the price and proximity to the ferry. Spacious kitchen and living room. Feel safe that there's like a guard house. Place is quiet. Ample parking space. Nice balcony. Near the beach. Had an issue with the heater and somebody came in less than 10 min. Housekeeping needs to do better. Dirty dishes in the cabinet. Somebody put it there without checking. Linen closet needs tidying and hardly any linen, just comforters. Didn't bother to ask as we were staying only for 1 night. Good thing we brought extra bedsheets for the futon. No elevator and there are 3 floors. TV Remote & cable not working. Overall a 4 star. Disappointed with Put-in-bay though.
