We had a fantastic family vacation at this house. We had ten people, 4 kids, 6 adults. It was perfect. Pros- lots of room, wonderful entertainment, beautiful views of lake, close to Cedar Point, great host communication, nice starter supplies, a/c works great, lovely old house that is in great shape.Cons- really none! There are a lot of steps but there are great bars and railings that help. We would definitely stay here again.

Everything was absolutely incredible for our wedding we hosted here. The house was perfect and just a really cool place to host a wedding. The communication with the property managers was always efficient and kind. I cannot thank Dayle and David enough for wonderful time we had. I cannot recommend this home enough and would for sure book with them again!

Our family had a great time here! Everything was perfect, clean, and exceeded our expectations. Spenser is very kind and hospitable--an absolute wonderful premier host!!!This is a wonderful house with all the amenities (and more) needed for family fun (esp. with kids)--Rain or shine we could enjoy the indoor spaces!!! We love it all! The outdoor landscaping and property is beautiful and well-kept...We were more than impressed :)The family had fun fishing. The property is happily situated in a quiet neighborhood and located in a convenient location --easy distance to restaurants, stores, beaches, etc. It is also lovely to be able to park our cars in the garage, thank you!We have many wonderful family memories here and appreciate the thoughtfulness of the owners! I highly recommend :)

We utilized the pool table, ping pong table, game room and firepit. I had 2 knee replacements and hip and wrist surgery in the past year. I didn't think it through and the steep steps were alot for me. I will say the handrails and grab bars were a godsend. We had 4 generations and they all had a great time. The parking was also good.
