The property was super clean and exactly as described. Was perfect for what we needed. We also loved the little beach area. The dogs loved the yard and the beach. Not too far wayay from town if we needed something. Loved the location and area. Will book again!

Nice house for a large group. We all had comfy beds and lots of room. Two refrigerators were a bonus. The beach was amazing! Plenty of seats and the kids loved playing in the water. Boat docks are close by. I would definitely stay here again. Good bars/restaurants within walking distance. Communication was great with the owners.

The house had lots of sleeping areas and provided everything needed. We did have an issue with the upstairs bathroom leaking into the bedroom downstairs and the private beach was absolutely full of broken glass.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Jul 2026
As a Premier Host for over 5 years this review is tough and a bit conflicting. Guest stated we provided everything needed, but then rated 3 stars. We take pride in providing great family experiences at Driftwood and host returning families year after year. This is the first time since we purchased the property of any complaints regarding glass on the beach. The beach is on Sandusky Bay - we do have many broken shells that wash in with the tide, not glass. When we went to property to clean for next group, we did not find any evidence of broken glass anywhere on beach. Guests heavily used the no charge kayaks and paddleboards throughout the stay - which reside on the beach, with no issues. The upstairs tub may have an issue draining quickly when the overflow is reached, we will be working to improve during the slower rental season. We continue to host appreciative guests and making stays enjoyable for all who choose us. Happy to answer any inquiries and ask to view our 5 star reviews. TKU

Great property for a big group. Lots of room. The grounds are nice and the beach is right across the street. Beach is great. We swam, we used their kayaks and paddle boards. There's two fire pits, one on the property and one at the beach. The house itself is fine.. Had everything you needed. Although it's quite dark inside the house because of all the wood but really not an issue. Great location. Maybe a 15-minute drive to cedar point, good restaurants nearby. I highly recommend Cleats. We went there for dinner. It was delicious and they have these fun hermit crab races that your kids can participate in. Overall, I highly recommend Driftwood cottage.

The rustic cabin was well stocked. We were able to grill out and the assistance from the neighbors involved with beach rentals was nice.
