About this property

Fishing, Wineries, Beaches- Oh My! Near the Historic Ashtabula Harbor.

Grill and fire pit in back yard!

Fishermen welcome! Can fit 2-3 fishing boats in the yard!

Wake up in the master to a view of beautiful Lake Erie, which is a short walk away.
The home is in direct line for the cool lake breeze, where you might enjoy an afternoon or evening sitting on the front porch swing.
If there are more than two people in your party during your stay, they can choose from a single bed in the purple room or a full bed in the blue room. All rooms have access to plenty of closet space and dresser drawers.

Our place:
Our beautiful, recently remodeled home, is so ready to welcome you!
The bathroom and bedrooms are on the second floor!

The stairs are steep, but have tree to help!

In the kitchen, there is a coffee pot and toaster. (If you need a gluten free toaster, there is one available, upon request).
There are dishes, silverware, cookware, pots and pans.
There is a safe for your valuables.

The Neighborhood:
Lake Shore Park is a quarter mile to the East. You can feed the ducks, play frisbee golf, or sit on a swing and enjoy the water. Walnut Beach is a mile and a half to the west. Conneaut township Park is located 12 miles to the east- on 60 acres, it offers something to do for everyone. From playgrounds to soccer fields and basketball courts.

Lunch might be at Crow's Nest - a family owned restaurant a block from our home, where the best wings (among other things) can be eaten.
A half mile West is Historic Bridge Street (2018 winner of "America's Main Street" contest, where, after shopping at the boutique stores or the art gallery, you can have a great cup of coffee at the Harbor Perk, a glass of fine wine at Fitzgerald's or Halcyon, and choose a meal from pizza, smoke bbq, steak or other amazing entrée.
Dessert can be ice cream at Cones or at Marianne's (But be sure to go to Marianne's early for her homemade chocolate!)
Harbor Laundry is a few miles away, if you need to wash clothes.

Getting around:
1,000 feet to Route 11, you are a hop, skip and a jump to the many covered bridges, wineries and events in Ashtabula County. We are 15 minutes from the Spire in Geneva. Also 15 minutes from Geneva-on- the-Lake, if you don't get stopped by the Bascule Bridge in the Harbor - then add 10 minutes.

Welcome Inn

Beautiful house and was exactly as listed online. Was very clean and comfortable to stay in. Its an older home with an unique staircase so if stairs are an issue I would use caution when booking. Overall a wonderful stay and certainly will go back on our future fishing trips.

Very clean property. Quiet neighborhood. Plenty of space to park a truck with a boat along with a second car. Just minutes away from pretty much anything you would need for a relaxing trip. Ours was for fishing and its location to a boat launch cannot be beat. The owners are very receptive and you can tell they do their best to make sure your trip goes well. They are very easy to reach if anything is needed also. Definitely a place you will return too.

Great stay here in this house. Loved the area too. We come here for a big swim meet very year and we love staying in this town and going to the harbor perk every morning. Such an interesting area. The house was warm and inviting. It has everything you could possibly need. The property manager was very helpful and made sure we were comfortable and helped us with anything we needed. Great safe and clean place!

Wonderful little place for a girls weekend.

I can’t speak any higher of the owners of this home. The communication was wonderful and they were so welcoming. The house was clean and so relaxing. They did everything they could to provide a great experience for their guests. The access to the vineyards was great. We are excited to come back in the future.

Clean and quiet

The overall stay was excellent. The house was clean and the owners were available if any problem should arise. Check in was easy and we were able to go in the house a little early which was nice since our drive there was a little quicker than planned. We also got to meet the owners son who lives next door and gave us some great information on nearby beaches. The only downside was geneva on the lake was a little further of a drive than we would have liked.

Great weekend getaway

Great communication and nice weekend vacation spot. We had my adult son and daughter with their significant others. The one bathroom was challenging but we made it work. Some mirrors in the bedrooms would help immensely since that’s where most of us had to get ready. Only other minor thing was the soap dispenser in the bathroom was not pumping. Overall a great stay!

Perfect girls getaway!

Absolutely recommend booking! Gary & Linda are so kind. They welcomed 5 of us girls into their beautiful home this past weekend. We had an amazing time. Nice picnic table in the back yard, with a firepit. Adorable porch swing & rocking chair on the front porch. It is a very short drive to Walnut Beach Park. Beautiful scenic beach along the lake. We plan to make this a yearly trip for us! Nothing short of a great weekend.

Everything was great but all 3 beds and stairs.

We had such a great time in Ashtabula! This house was super clean and had most of your needs. We would stay again if the beds were updated. Unfortunately, all three beds were very uncomfortable. We tried all three and we barely slept all weekend. Then the stairs.. we both slide down. They are half the size of regular stairs, very narrow. Be careful.

About the host

Hosted by Gary VanBuren

Host profile image
We love meeting people and a short term rental allows that to happen.
We made a decision when we began as hosts that we would provide an extremely clean place for people to stay. We want it to feel like home, so we try to think ahead to provide everything a guest will need.

Why they chose this property

Our town was settled in sections by nationality. Welcome Inn is in ‘SwedeTown’.
It is a several block area. We just love this part of town.
It is a block from Route 11, s and yet is a quiet neighborhood.
