Spend your afternoons lounging in the sun, reading and watching boats drift by. Unwind in the evening with a glass of wine in your private hot tub, then cozy up by the fire pit with cocktails as you take in the most breathtaking Lake Erie sunsets. Drift off to sleep, only to wake and do it all again tomorrow - your perfect lakeside retreat awaits!

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.

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!

Breathtaking views

The views from the house are amazing. Even though it’s windy right by the lake, sitting in the hot tub and watching the sunset is perfection. This house was the perfect size for our family of four. Our little ones (3 and 7) had a blast running around the spacious yard. We rented this house for a little peace and relaxation and it surpassed our expectations!
