Great property for family vacation! Sue was an amazing host; very responsive and helpful. The property was clean, fully stocked with all you could need, in a quiet area and had a large heated pool that was a big hit with the whole family. Check-in was smooth and Sue was able to provide some great recommendations for activities and food. No problems with wi-fi or anything inside the house. We enjoyed visiting Main Street beach, downtown (cute little Harbor Town), Wild Hooves rescue and petting zoo (a short 5 minute drive) and checking out the Vermilion lagoons. Would recommend this property to others staying in the area :)

Great Spring Break Stay

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! We had 3 generations of family staying and everyone had space to enjoy and create memories together. Everyone loved the pool and game room and the welcome donuts were such a kind touch. The kids loved all the toys and special space in their room.

Amazing property convenient to Vermilion

It's hard to appreciate exactly how beautiful this home is until you've been there. The street is quiet and lovely, the kids loved the indoor pool and arcade, and it was convenient to Vermilion. If you're looking for a multi-family getaway close to the lake, look no further. This is it.

Fun family memories

This is our second summer to stay at this rental. Our extended family had so much fun again this year. We love the location. It’s quiet and secluded yet close to the beach and shops. The game room and indoor pool are big hits with the kids - especially when the weather is rainy. The extra amenities are nice too - a huge basket of snacks to welcome us, towels by the pool, paper products and detergents all provided. And to top it all off, Sue is so easy to communicate with. My 4 year old grandson said it best - “We HAVE to come back to this same house EVERY year!”

Great family getaway!

This beautiful home and property was such fun! The pool was amazing and well cared for! Everyone had fun in the game room playing anything from different forms of Pac Man, Mario Brothers, Frogger- you name it! The game room was used for family game playing- a great way to make memories! Sue the hostess is so attentive to any needs. We used the front porch, the bistro area, the picnic tables, virtually every corner! The house is so spacious and beds are comfy! If you’re looking for a great spot with a charming little community that doesn’t feel too “touristy”, this is the place for you! Lake Erie was beautiful! We had the best time!

Best place ever!!!

Another absolutely amazing stay. Susan made us feel so welcome with so many personal touches. We were greeted with a basket specific for our family with so many fun goodies for both kids and adults. She had made sure we had tons of kid related craft options, including crayons, markers, notebooks, baby toys for our little ones, fun extra snacks including s’more packet. It was like Christmas in August and it made our stay so special. The house is gorgeous, well stocked with paper products. Rooms clean and the pool is the best ever. Also stocked with toys the kids could play with in the pool. Game room is epic. Susan has a heart for family, best host ever. Thank you Ruth Ridley

Something for everyone

We are a difficult group to accommodate.we range in age from 6 to 84 and include 2 dogs and step siblings. We need lots of bedroom and bathrooms, pet friendly, a first floor bedroom and Activities,activities and more activities! This place has it all. The game room with the jukebox was a big hit and the indoor pool was in constant use. While this place is clean and very nice at the same time it is a family home so no one felt like it was a “museum” and they couldn’t relax and enjoy themselves. Sue went out of her way to be welcoming not only leaving us treats, but also leaving us enough coffee and fixings, spices, toilet paper so we didn’t have to make a grocery run our top priority..

Where family memories are made.....

This was our second time staying at this amazing home. The number one reason to go is Sue, she is an amazing hostess. Communication is tops, always available to help in any way. She has a heart for families and wants to make sure it is magical for family memories. The house is very nice, clean, well-stocked with TP, paper towels and all the kitchen utensils you will ever need. All the bedrooms are lovely, very comfortable beds. Several areas to congregate. The pool is perfect, stocked with tons of swimming noodles, floats, you name it. I think our kids enjoyed picking through all the toys as much as swimming. Tons of towels, both for the pool and in each room. The laundry room has great washer/dryer and stocked with laundry detergent. Ohhhh also you are greeted with the best welcome basket full of goodies. We also love the location, Vermilion is such a unique town on the coast, we love all the local restaurants, the beach, all the stores. Thank you for giving us this gorgeous worry-free time in your beautiful home.
