Geneva-on-the-Lake in Ashtabula County, Ohio, is an old-fashioned lakefront getaway offering something for everyone, and the Cove Cottage is in an ideal location for walking and easy driving to attractions on the famous entertainment Strip and north shore.

• Restaurants, nightclubs, amusement rides, live entertainment, arts, unique shopping, and arcades provide entertainment for everyone in your group, including the Tuesday concerts in Township Park.
• Play a round of golf at one of Geneva’s in-town or area golf courses. For family fun try one of the many miniature golf courses.
• Explore more than 20 Northeast Ohio wineries just minutes from Cove Cottage. The Ashtabula and Lake County grape-growing regions produce most of Ohio’s wine grapes, giving our area the reputation as the state's finest. And don’t forget about our famous covered bridges.
• Arriving by boat? Dock within the safety of the harbor at nearby Geneva State Park. And Lake Erie itself has so much to offer: Book a sunset cruise or a fishing charter. Swim at the State Park or stroll along the beach, then take a ride on the Ferris wheel. There are several restaurants and wineries right on the lake, and our spectacular sunsets offer the perfect subject for photo enthusiasts.

Property was very, very clean. Everything that was listed in the VRBO ad was provided and then some. Sheets, linens and pillows were all very clean and we had plenty to get us through the weekend. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this property for an enjoyable Geneva stay.

House and property is great. Have stayed at this property before and will again. Perfect for kids and animals to have space to play, house is clean, check-in was great and communication with property manager was awesome. They gave us a 3-hour early check-in because the house was ready. Can easily accommodate six to eight people. Plenty of Linens and space for everyone. Thank you for an excellent stay!

Great cottage except it was not mentioned they'd be doing a large construction project next door

Nights were amazing. Mornings were awful. There were large excavators right next door that started at 6. These things happen but a heads up would have been nice. Pretty sure we won't be using VRBO ever again. A couple bad experiences in a row.

Nice getaway

The house was perfect for us since we brought our pup. It was clean and was in great location. It did have most of what we needed except for something to start a fire and could use more forks. Otherwise. I would definitely recommended.

Cove cottage

We stayed here for the weekend for a friend’s wedding and it was a nice stay. We had our young kids and dog with us and I didn’t know it was located right behind a night club. I was worried about how loud it would be at night but it honestly didn’t bother anyone. Couches were uncomfortable but bedrooms and were all nice. Perfect location if you plan on hanging out along the strip. Would stay again if it were just myself and husband or friends but probably not with the whole family.

family vacation

The cottage was clean and neat, Girls liked having their own sink in their bedrooms and a shared toilet upstairs during the night. Any issues I had was taken care of by the owner within hours of letting them know. There was a racoon or rodent that kept me up during the night, noise coming from the bathroom. They were working on catching it and releasing it somewhere else. Didnt know the bar was right in front of the cottage and on last night was unable to sleep until it closed. Music was very loud. But overall was a nice place and I was able to visit with my grandkids and spend spring break with them and had fun and made memories.

Great vibe and lots of fun!

We had a great time celebrating my sisters 60th birthday at Cove Cottage at Geneva on the Lake! I had never been there before and was pleasantly surprised with the vibe of the strip, it has a total boardwalk feel. All the bars were within walking distance so that was a definite plus! We did a winery tour Saturday afternoon, which was a blast. Our driver had great suggestions and made sure we got the most bang for our buck. The house is right next to a bar, which we did not mind at all, but if you are going to be bothered by noise at night, keep that in mind. The fire pit was AWESOME! A good amount of chairs and not having to worry about bringing wood was a plus. Check in was easy and the communication was good. The house was big and I appreciated the shampoos and soap in the bathroom. My only negative would be that it didn't have enough forks and the pull out couches have seen better days and were not comfortable. All in all, I would recommend staying Cove Cottage if you are going to tour the winerys and hang out on the strip.

The property was located right behind The Cove in GOTL, which was very convenient to our final destination. Because we were there during New Years, 99% of the strip was closed...and I didn't mind that one bit. It made for easy driving & less chaos. We had a bad rain/wind storm while we were there & the power was out right after the New Year's celebration. Matt answered our call (which didn't surprise me) & let us know the tentative timing for power restoration. I'm glad the place has a gas heater, located in the dining area that could still be used, even though the power was out. The home itself is quaint & nicely furnished...but it's missing one thing...closets or someplace to hang clothing, jackets, etc. No coat hooks made for a bit of a mess within the place while we were there...but we do realize that most of their tenants are going during the summer months, when jackets are normally not needed. Overall, the place was great & we look forward to another visit in the future.
