The beach access was really good. Takes just a minute to be on the beach. It's a private beach, so we had it to ourselves almost every time we went there, The inside was comfortable and well furnished. The amenities were excellent and abundant. We had everything we needed. The reason for the 4-star rating is the cleanliness of the outside, the yard and the porch. We had to clean cobwebs and debris from the chairs and tables on the porch and wash layers of dust and dirt from the table tops. This was not dirt from a random rain, but had obviously not been cleaned in quite some time. But the views, the kitchen supplies and bathroom supplies were above and beyond some other places we have stayed. There were games and cards for the kids, which was very much appreciated. All in all, I would stay here again,

Great stay by the water

We had a fantastic stay. It was cold so we didnt get to utilize the deck as much as we would of liked to but still great. Very well stocked and comfortable. Lots of seating and nice areas outside to walk.

Great stay!

The house has everything needed for a great getaway. Ample seating outdoors and in, anything you could possibly need for your stay at your disposal. We loved the overall look of the house and a gorgeous view to watch the sunset. We had a little challenge figuring out the heat since the weather was unseasonably cold this weekend in late May.

Wonderful lake house!

Loved seeing the lake from the covered front deck! The beach was just a short walk and we enjoyed walking and collecting a few shells. We hope to return during warm weather. This is a very clean and comfortable home and was very welcoming.

Peaceful Lakefront Gem with Incredible Views

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful lakefront home. The property was clean, cozy, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The private beach access was a huge plus—just a few steps and we were on the sand, enjoying the calm waters of Lake Erie. One of the highlights of our trip was sitting on the front porch to watch the fireworks —such a memorable experience!The home itself felt like a true retreat, with thoughtful touches throughout and plenty of space for our family to unwind. We also appreciated how close it was to Port Clinton—just a short drive away for restaurants, shops, and the ferry to Put-in-Bay.

Perfect getaway for everyone!

11/10 experience! I planned a trip with 8 people and the place had all the accommodations we needed. The host was very nice and very quick to respond. The house is located on a private row with a private beach. The surrounding location is great you are 5-15 minutes from most of the charters and restaurants. I highly recommend staying here.

Loved the house and location

We loved our rental house and its close access to the beach. During the weekdays we were often the only ones swimming and kayaking. The owner was very responsive when a glitch happened upon arrival with the door lock. It was resolved quickly. The owner was also very generous with providing paper supplies, beach towels, etc. My suggestion would be to bring your own kayak as the two provided are in rough shape. Family time was great and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies. The bird life and sunsets from the porch were amazing and the neighborhood was very quiet. Eagle watching was thrilling and we also enjoyed visiting the Magee Marsh Wildlife Center which was only 10 minutes away. The 4 out of 5 stars reflected the entry glitch and unusable kayaks. Otherwise, we would love to return next year.
