Location Location Location = Cedar Point minutes away + convenient fun + Relaxing Vacation!
The Lakefront Lighthouse @RyeBeach is one-of-a-kind as it was was built to create a lakefront experience with a deck and patio so close to the water you feel like you're sailing on a boat. Enjoy the firepit on the patio while watching watercolor sunset views and a cup of coffee for the sunrise from the lighthouse's upper deck and patio. You will love having meals and hanging out on the first level deck and patio as you watch boats pass by. When the wind is out of the Northeast you'll experience Pacific ocean like waves crash into the sea wall.
This is a fisherman's dreamhouse as you cast your line just feet from the home and if you’re into golf The Saw Mill Creek Course by Tom Fazio is 4 minutes away.
Rye Beach Park is only 150 feet away from the Lighthouse and has 9 playground features for the kids, a basketball court, and tons of room to play frisbee, catch, and wiffleball. The property also offers access to Willow Glen Beach a 5 minute walk through neighborhood. Both of these are private parks and beaches to the neighborhood community.
2 full size refrigerators, Gas Grill, Indoor Dining for 18, Outdoor Dining for 12, 2 sets of washers and dryers, 2 hot water tanks, and a fully stocked kitchen with tons of cooking tools.

About the host
Hosted by Stephanie Doherty
This property has been owned by my family since 1999. As Dave (Dad) retires from his 20+ years of building 5 lake homes at Rye Beach park his daughter, Stephanie, is taking over the operations of the properties. Note that this property is 1 of three lakefront properties in a row that are owned with the Rye Beach Lakehouse being the second property available for rent. For large families renting both properties is a great way to gain access to lakefront property for gatherings together. This is a new VRBO listing in 2020 as the ownership changes, if you'd like the reviews from the previous listing we screenshot archived them and will happily share as it's a wonderful property and has gotten great reviews with many repeat summer week renters.
Why they chose this property
lakefront, location, Rye Beach, Park, Pier is 150 feet away, and you can't find a property like this so close to Cedar Point!
What makes this property unique
The Lighthouse literally sits 40 feet from the water where waves crash on it when there are strong winds out of the Northeast!
