The view is absolutely stunning. The beds are comfortable. The shower is nice and large. The hot tub was clean and hot! The host gave great restaurant recommendations upon request. All in all, a great weekend at the lake! We were there for a swim meet at the Spire Academy and it was a quick and easy 15 min. drive to get to the competition. We visited in March/ off season. I’m sure this place is even more fun in the summer.

Mikes property was amazing for our weekend getaway! The property is right on Lake Erie and had beautiful views from the outdoor hot tub. Only 3 mins from downtown Geneva on the Lake! The amenities were fantastic, and the place was impeccably clean! Would love to come again during peak season.
The outdoor amenities and views of Lake Erie are top-notch.Excellent communications with the host, check-in and out was a breeze.

Girls weekend getaway
The booking process was seamless.
Communication was easy.
The cottage was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. Coffee was provided which was an unexpected bonus. The view of the lake was absolutely beautiful and we spent most of our time in the hot tub. Though there are houses on each side, the back yard still offered plenty of privacy.
We were in close proximity of all of the wineries.
We will definitely be back.

Few days to relax .
The location of the property and the rental itself were just the ticket. The interior of the home was clean, plenty of towels, kitchen essentials and the favorite space was the outdoor patio!! Looking at the lake was great at night with all the stars. The only items missed were washer and dryer. Would rebook in the future . Thank you, Mike for making this short get away so easy.

Relaxing Stay with Great View
We had a very relaxing and wonderful stay. The view is breathtaking and the hot tub is great for a sunset. The house was very clean and has everything you need for a nice getaway to the lake. My wife and I came for a short stay to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. We would definitely stay again.
Incredible view from hot tub or while sitting by fire

Exactly what we needed!
This house & property were spectacular! Cozy with a gorgeous view of the lake. We enjoyed sitting outside on the patio or by the fire. When it rained, we sat indoors with all the blinds open to enjoy the view!

The cottage was just the right size for two people. The views from the deck and backyard, especially at sunset, were downright breathtaking.
