Relaxing vacation at Crane Cove Resort

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful location on the water. It’s a quiet location convenient to many Buckeye Lake favorites. I enjoyed time relaxing and reading my book on the deck.

Great Times

The property was clean and comfortable; however, if you have trouble climbing stairs, this rental may be a little challenging. I will definitely consider renting this unit in the future until I am no longer able to comfortably climb stairs. Owner was very helpful and more than accommodating to our needs.

Rick’s place is great! Highly recommend it! Very cozy, u love that there were fans inside as well, patios were awesome with the view, had access to kayaking, bike riding, and swimming in the lake. Walkable restaurants and a couple breweries around. Rick was also so sweet and accommodating with us. He responded fast. If I’m back in the area, I’d 100% stay here again.

Loved the Lake life!

Cozy villa/loft on a beautiful, quiet cove. Owner had docks, kayaks, bikes, and firepit available at site. We brought lake floats and paddle board. Perfect location for paddle boarding. Loved the 2nd story deck/porch complete with ceiling fans for a relaxing visit.

Very nice but quirky structure.

The building is charming and clean and location is beautiful, but the structure is a bit quirky w BR and the only BA on first floor, kitchen & LR on 2nd and additional sleeping space on 3rd (late night bathroom visits are potentially awkward as climbing steps may be, especially for elderly. No problem for just wife and I.My biggest gripe is communication as the host responded to questions, but I wasn't notified and didn't know he replied until I inadvertantly saw the reply days later. A few more days after that, I got a notification that the host reached out but saw only the original Q&A on the website. If a second communication was sent, I was never aware.Whether due to my inability to get communications, or a lack of information having been sent, we weren't sure where to park or how to get into the building, or even which building it was. This was in part due to an outdated pic on the website showing 3 buildings but there are actually 4. We figured it out quickly, but it was late at night and someone prone to get uptight may been uptight or put out. OR the chance exists of someone jacking around at the wrong door at 1:00 AM. Also, there are one way streets that take you a cirtutous route. We drove the wrong way down what is really an allley. Not an issue due to how late it was and how little traffic ever used the street, but a bit confusing.

Everything was very nice and tidy. Only complaint was the shower head was barely operational. Also bathroom light acted like a strobe light. Everything else was very nice.

Hidden Gem on Buckeye Lake

Perfect, cozy place right on the water for my husband, 15 year old son and myself. We just needed a short, relaxing getaway to do a little fishing, walking and recharging. The Boatyard for dinner and Dips on the Lake for dessert were perfect and walking distance.
