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.

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.

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.

We loved our stay. The house is perfect size for a small family and has been renovated so everything is new. The best thing is the access to the beach. We are already planning to go back next year.

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.

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.

Lovely area to stay

Nice location with wayer views and easy beach access. We were birding at nearby Magee Marsh and it's a close easy drive. Kitchen fully stocked, bedding could use an update but fine. Hope to come again we enjoyed it!

Convenient location for birding shore parks

Home is close to birding locations such as Magee Marsh and Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge for easy early-morning access. Anyone looking for a beach holiday should be aware that in May 2024 the beach at the end of the road was littered with rotting fish carcasses and smelled horrible. Also, the sunset view from the dining room and porch was obstructed by a camping trailer parked next to the house across the street. The house itself was clean and comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet at night. The kitchen is somewhat equipped, but bring your own wine glasses, microwaveable bowl or casserole dish, and extra dish towels. Washer and dryer were very convenient. The hosts provided minimal information before check-in or in the home (compared to other VRBO rentals), so do your homework on area grocery stores, restaurants, and activities. (The hosts were available by phone and helped resolve a check-in question quickly.) Wifi was reliable and rooms have individual heating/cooling controls. Bring extra blankets and pillows, as there are non onsite. Water was fine to drink, no smell even though you are next to the lake. We enjoyed the convenience of the location, and hope to visit again in future migration seasons.
